August

 Ivan is loving his new scooter.  To Mike's disappointment, he does not have a lot of interest in his bike-he just cannot get the hang of the pedals yet.  So, he would much rather use his scooter for now. 

 We bought this scooter for Ivan, but I am pretty sure that Everett has claimed it as his own!

 This is how Ivan came outside to play-PJ's on and two different shoes!

 Mid August, we had a family weekend.  Mike's family came from Shelby, Cincinnati and Chicago for the weekend.  We enjoyed lollipops, rockets, drinks and lots of outdoor play.  Poor little Everett was not quite himself as he had a bit of a stomach bug all weekend.  He sure was a trooper though!

 Everett is exploring every inch of the house right now.  He wants to do exactly what everyone else is doing, especially Ivan!  He can usually be found in the Kitchen following one of us around and begging do what we are doing or eat what we are eating.  The one toy that we have found that will hold his interest is his stacking cups.  He loves to build them up and knock them down over and over.  Unfortunately, he usually needs a little help with this, so parental guidance is still needed ;)
