Boys being boys

The boys have been finding various ways to amuse themselves during the summer. 
Jaydon likes to clomp around in daddies shoes which is especially difficult when they are heavy steal toes shoes. 
Steve got inspired to use some leftover wood we had lying around to make an airplane for the wagon. 
He didn't realize that after spending the first half of his weekend making it that he'd have to spend the second half giving all the boys a ride in it.  He had great plans to paint it and make it look really nice but the next week the driver who brings Jaydon home from school ran into it so it didn't survive long. 
Tylor practiced hanging out with the guys and Jaydon and Jacob had lots of fun playing silly games together.

Summer School

During the summer here most everyone who can manage leaves. 
For those of us who work and don't have weeks and weeks of vacation we have to find other ways to entertain ourselves. 
Fortunately Jaydon's nursery is one of the few that offer summer school so he still gets to go have fun everyday playing in the great indoors. 
It's kind of like the equivalent of hibernating in the winter. 
You stay inside, minimize all outdoor activities and think cool thoughts. 
But I don't think Jaydon minds a bit.

Practice, practice

That's what Tylor does everyday, back and forth in the living room with his walker. 
He loves being able to get around but is still building up the strength before he feels comfortable venturing out on his own. 
With all the hard tile and concrete he has to walk on I don't blame him.  Not much room for error on those surfaces.
It's also become full on summer time. 
The best way to tell is how quickly until the boys are bright red from playing outside. 
Tylor has also discovered the joys of seeing the trash truck go by and the street cleaner and all the other neat machines on the road.  He's a big cutie (and I think he knows it too).
