Summer Fun

Summer has been going by way too fast! The boys and I have been having lots of fun doing the things we don't always have time for during the school year. We've visited the library several times. I usually end up chasing Macalan trying to keep him away from the water feature! Sometimes I wish he could tolerate being in the stroller for longer periods of time.
The pool has been a fun place to hang out too. It is a little challenging going to the pool with a 2 year old and an 8 month old, but I always have very reliable friends to go with who help me out!
Macalan has been having fun doing different art projects. The other day he had a blast finger painting. At first he didn't like the feeling of the paint, but it only took a few minutes for him to get good and messy! He has also discovered how much fun baby toys can be again (as you can see from the picture). While I was making the bed one morning I heard the excer-saucer bouncing up and down. I knew it couldn't be Sutton because he was taking a nap. Sure enough Macalan decided to try it out again.
Sutton is busy scooting around on his back. He has no interest in learning to crawl. It has been really cute to see he and Macalan playing together more and more. I love how they can make each other laugh. Sutton has recently learned to hold his own bottle. However, it's a skill I don't let him use very often because I like our cuddle time during bottle feedings.
I'm trying to relish every moment I have with them this summer because I know soon enough it will be time to go back to work.
