Nana and Papa bought this neat little gator for Brooklyn and DJ to ride. They were able to get on it together the other day and had a blast! Brooklyn is a pretty good driver already, but DJ needs a lot of practice! He started trying to mash the gas, but he has no clue how to steer!
DJ's daycare had Picture People come out and take pictures. This is DJ's first class picture! I think they did pretty good job getting 8 toddlers to look in pretty much the same direction at the same time! But notice that DJ and two other boys are missing shoes!!! LOL!!
Thanks to the wonderful photography studio, The Picture People, I was able to get four 8x10 pictures for less than $6!! I absolutely love their coupons and I am a member of their portrait club. But it is VERY hard to walk away without spending a ton. I just remind myself that I only have so many picture frames to fill and the less I spend each time the more often I can have his pictures made!
I love the close ups that I get here! They really capture his facial expressions!
I had to get one with the bunny. This was the only one that didn't look like he was about to kill the bunny!
I loved this one. They brought it out in a huge frame and it was so hard to say no to! (Nana, this is the one I got for you too!)
Damon came home the other day with this 4-wheeler for DJ. So far, he really seems to enjoy it and will ride/push it all over the house. Yesterday I caught him giving George a ride on the 4-wheeler! He has also become pretty attached to George lately! We may need to find another one to put up in case something happens to this one.
DJ LOVES to "read" his books. When we go to Nana and Papa's house, we cannot keep him away from the books. He will pull every last book off the shelf before he can decide which one he wants to look at. If only he could put them up when he is done!
Some friends of ours were invited to DJ's birthday party, but they were unable to make it. They recently brought his present over to the house. And he LOVES it! He has played with it all day. It didn't take him long to figure out how to make it work either.
We took DJ to the Georgia Aquarium today. He really enjoyed looking at all the fish! He did not like being in the stroller though and wanted to walk around. Next time we go, I will have to keep him on a leash!
His first look at the fishes!
He loved this tank. He screamed when we left it!
Touching the shrimp with Daddy.
Look Mommy, I am taller than you! As long as he could stand in front of the tanks, he was happy!
This tank is where you can walk though and the fish are swimming above you. It is really neat! (oh and we had a shirt change thanks to all the drool from cutting his top molars!)
Hanging with Mommy.
They have a 4D movie about how humans affect the sea life. DJ really liked it except when they sprayed everyone with water, THREE times! It was a really good 3D movie.
Looking cool in his 3D shades. He wouldn't wear them during the movie though.
I think we wore him out. He was asleep less than 10 minutes after we got him in the car!
The weather was awesome this weekend, so we took advantage and played outdoors! We bought DJ this new Adventure Climber. It is a little big for him right now, but I am sure it won't be long before he is crawling all over it! He really enjoyed the slide!!
We got DJ this car a few weeks ago. It has finally been nice enough on the weekends so that we can get out an try it out. He is unsure about riding in it, but he really enjoyed pushing it around and playing with it!
Just need to back up here a little bit! He could push it backwards a little.
I think I will just push it around
I think there is something wrong with the gas tank
Nana, Papa, and Brooklyn came out to visit DJ last weekend. DJ and Brooklyn had a lot of fun together. Between the two of them, I think they played with just about every toy that DJ owns! Brooklyn really enjoyed playing with DJ's workbench.
