Pirate Day

On Saturday we went on a pirate adventure.  Will pretended to be a pirate, and I took pictures of him.  We had a blast!  (and we got some funny looks from some other people on the trail)

Cruise Scrapbook

Here is a photobook of the cruise we went on in May!  It was a lot of fun!  For the last month I've been busy trying to finish this scrapbook!

Biking Adventure

Rob and I are really enjoying the nice spring weather these past few weekends.  Last weekend we took William on a bike ride to some construction sites - he had a lot of fun since one of his favorite books is "Dig Dig Digging" about diggers and dump trucks!

 

New Toy

So I got a new toy ( a late Christmas present).  It is a little device that helps me do time-lapse videos on my camera.  I'm still getting used to how it works, but here are a few samples that I've made over the last few days.

 

This one is of Will sleeping, from about 8:30pm to 1pm.  I turned on the light around 9:15 once I knew he was asleep so I could get better pictures...  Luckily he stayed asleep, even through the shutter sound and everything.

 

This next one is of Will playing with his cars.  Real time was probably about 20 minutes, while I was making lunch.  As you can see he is one busy boy!

Cutie

Who is this cutie?!  He makes me smile!

 

A day at the pool

We took Will swimming yesterday at Mulberry Pool.  It is a city pool which has a water slide and a nice kid area.  William seemed to like it, but he got cold really fast so we only were there for about 30 minutes.  It was fun to hang out as a family!

 

Growing .... growing ....gone!

William turns 1.5 this week!   I can't believe it - it seems time has gone by really fast.   Rob and I have a lot of fun with him, whether it is bath time, playtime, or mealtime.   These days when we go on walks William can walk alongside us and keep up which is pretty amazing. And he is talking a lot!   He says a lot of words like ball, moon, blue, mama, orange, no, yep, purple, bubble, etc.  

No No No!

William now is talking a lot! One of his favorite words is no. In fact, sometimes he'll say "no" is the answer to what ever question we ask. Last week he was being especially cantankerous, so we took this video of him and his favorite word ...

What Makes William Laugh?

Usually William is pretty reserved.  But tonight he just kept giggling during his bath as I would blow bubbles from his hand.  He sure is a silly guy!  It made both Rob and I smile and it is times like these we love being parents!
