Backyard adventures

Trying out a new "auto" movie maker app...

Why do I buy toys. . .

The country house is complete

Or at least as far as the boys are concerned!

Swings

And a working jeep

Sports day at school

England has a great tradition of "Sports Day" near the end of the year. The kids do a variety of races/games and even the parents have a race or two. It took Reagan a little while, but he got in to the spirit of it. Cooper loved every minute and has been asking when the next Sports Day is! A bunch of pictures and videos below. One thing to note, is both the boys seem to go with the Michael Jordan tongue out approach to speed. ;)

You can't do this in London

Three, when one just isn't enough

Marsh vs Turner

I think we definitely have to give this victory to Jack.

Hard to know who the biggest troublemaker is. . .

Child labor laws?

Bought 20 sponges for £1. Playhouse should be clean in 10 minutes. ;)

The haircut....

Getting Reagan's haircut used to be quite the ordeal. He just hated it. This has completely changed and now when told he is getting his haircut simply replies, "ah, lollipop?".











Enjoying the reward.

Will need to check the safety rating for 28lbs...

When I asked him why he was still there he said "Cooper jail me". ( Translation: Cooper put him in jail)

Police obsession

Is starting to wear off on his brother...













Cooper still loves his police van, although he only sleeps with it next to his bed 50% of the time. He has had it for well over half his life!

The other day he said to me, "I am not sure I want to be a policeman when I grow up, because I also want to be a daddy." I assured him he could do both!

How quickly they learn

When we got the trampoline last weekend he wouldn't go on it unless he had a hand to hold.

Now he even has karate moves. ;)

Water guns...

We had some more friends over today and Jason brought water guns...

Even though it was 55 and a bit cloudy the kids had fun watering the plants and chasing Jason around. Then the big guns came out...

Brotherly love!

I was lucky enough to capture this on video.
