New Bikes for the Boys



Wes has been really interested in working and doing chores to earn things. It has been so nice for me to have him do little things that I haven't been able to get to (vacuuming the couch, washing the walls, etc). We decided to have him work towards earning a bike. He worked really hard and it was a 3 month process but he finally earned his bike. It was so cute to see how proud he was of his accomplishment. I was so proud of him too. He worked really hard.



Bradley also inherited a bike too. He is very possessive with it. He gets very upset if Wes even touches it. Wesley absolutely loves his bike and wants to ride it all the time. A few times now we have gone on family bike rides were Daddy, Wes, and Brad ride (while I push Brad). We love our family rides.

Garden Update

We have been having so much fun growing our first real garden. Our amazing friends/neighbors have let us use an area in their yard. It is so nice to be able to just walk across the street and check it out. We love seeing how much it grows each week. It is so easy to grow things here in Oregon. Mother nature takes care of a lot of it here (we haven't had to water for a few weeks now). I am still crossing my fingers to see what harvest we can get out of it. Stay tuned for future updates!

Bradley's favorite time of the day!



Bradley loves to take baths. He asks me a few times a day to take a bath. One night after his bath, while Wesley was in the bath, we heard Wesley say "Mom, Bradley got in the tub with his PJs on". This is what we found. He was so happy to be back in the tub and didn't even care that he was dressed. Silly boy!
