All the boys (Stroud and Burch) checking out the snow leapord.

This racetrack is still a favorite from birthdays. Sadly it isn’t possible to leave it out for long periods of time – maybe in the new house!
Alex has been begging to play Mario Kart (we haven’t had it on in years so I’m not sure where he got the idea), but today Wade hooked it up and showed him how to play.

Alex and I had spied these parachute bunnies at CVS. We were hoping they would work in his parachute launcher but they were too big. We had fun with them anyway.
Today was wonderful weather and we couldn’t get enough of playing outside.
Wade got the boys’ new bikes out today and we embraced the warmer (slightly) weather.

Daddy’s home! (I happily turned bedtime routine back over to Wade!)
Early morning shenanigans.
Snuggles with Gram.
This boy was not happy with the bubbles in the tub. He would have preferred the tablets to make colored water.

Legos!

Just a little painting.

Alex was adamant that he wanted to play Operation. (I didn’t even realize we had it.) Unfortunately Wade had stolen the electronics (probably for this) but Alex still enjoyed using the tweezers to retrieve the little pieces.
Little guy play date with Grant.
Just two weeks ago Alex and I were doing the same thing at the same time. Oil change time.
Teague’s school had “Muffins with Mom” this morning. What a nice treat!
Talking to Daddy before bedtime. Thank you Skype!
A little Lego time with a friend.
Everyone was glad to be back home and in our own beds!
The boys waving and sending a picture to Mom and Dad.

Teague being silly.

Granny said that both boys loved riding behind the tractor but Alex pretty quickly wanted to go inside to play with Wade’s old Legos.

This picture is the perfect one of Teague. Driving a car, but with ear protection. That boy is always complaining about things being “too loud.”

Exploring on Pop’s farm.

Granny and Pop took the boys to see the Lego movie. Alex is a little bit of a scaredy cat and doesn’t tend to like theaters. He was obviously willing to give it a try for this movie.

Alex talks about his “red car” daily. He knows it won’t come out till summer, but he still talks about it all the time. I decided to pack it up and take it to Granny and Pop’s with us as a special treat.

My crafty boy couldn’t wait to get to his “desk” and get to work.
Someone was excited to get to Granny and Pop’s and try out the new bike.
Alex was so excited for the warm weather and the backyard to explore. He even found “treasures.”
Almost anything out of Teague’s mouth these days has the ending “just like Alex.” So when Alex gathered treasures in the yard then Teague needed a collection too.
Now that I know his napping days are numbered, I can’t help put take pictures when he sleeps.
Enjoying books at Daddy’s place.
Alex’s happy place – LegoLand.
Teague loved the car-building area at LegoLand. He found these two blue car pieces and wanted a car created. I did the best I could (finding necessary pieces was hard!) and then he wouldn’t put that car down. He loved it!
I was so impressed with the boys. I had them sit in the car while I took Madison into the boarding facility. It took longer than I expected but the boys had each found something to entertain them while I was gone.

The boys really wanted to play a game, but I had to work on dinner. In the end they decided to play by themselves. It was quite hilarious to listen to them as they tried.
Teague is almost always asleep when I go to pick him up at MDO. This is one of the first times I have ever seen him actually on his mat.
Napping.
Seriously impressive bedhead.
My backseat.
(With our house on the market, I have to have two boys and a dog gone for hours at at time!)
