Two Words Camping

Recently Daddy decided to take the family camping, all in the same tent with some of the palooza families. It worked out quite well and the boys loved it. 
The next morning they woke and played with their toys as the rain poured outside. Little did we know that Kevin's pack-n-play was up against the tent. It make a gutter like fountain so much so that when I lifted up Kevin's pad there was a pool of water under it. We darted out of there eating breakfast out of the rain.

And that is when Kevin tried his first Egg McMuffin

And the rare days that Nick sleeps in his bed we get these photo opportunities.

For some reason this photo reminds me of one from the 1970s, but in fact it was taken this month. 

Engineer Kevin? And then it fell.

For fun a couple weeks ago I took out a child soccer ball that I had bought Nick and started kicking it around outside with Nick. I was amazed at his ball control, kicking it with both feet as I chased him. So much so that I decided to prepare him for next years team. So began teaching him soccer and such positions as being a goalie. 

And a kicker.

Nicks favorite book is - Charlie the Caterpillar
Kevin's is - Superman (Nicks book) He actually brings it to us and sits listening to the whole story.

Kevin has began stringing words together, his first was - "Help Me" when he needs assistance.
For the first time he can say Nick! - "Nock" He said it for the first time in his prayers.

Daddy's contract job was just extended for the second time and now runs to the end of October. I am thrilled to be working for this company but miss the time lost with the family.
