Driving with milk

Kevin 'drives' while sipping his cup of milk.

Squeaky windshield wipers

There's a thunder storm rolling through town, and Kevin is grinning at the squeaky windshield wipers.

Summertime splashing

It's summer time and today our playgroup went to the pool. Kevin had a great time splashing in the baby pool. After a snack, we all went into the big pool to float around. After such a busy morning, Kevin had a nice long nap!

Kevin is 2 years old!

The bubble machine starts churning them out, originally uploaded by jhk in satx.

Today was Kevin's 2nd birthday, and we celebrated with a birthday party! We had the party during Kevin's regular playgroup, inviting a few extra friends. It was a beautiful morning, and Daddy had just put up the swing set, so we spent a lot of time playing outside. Everyone loved when the bubble machine started churning them out!

Everyone chased the bubbles around the corner!




Kevin loved the multitude of bubbles.



Even Axel ventured out from hiding (all those little people!!) to appreciate the bubbles.



Ooooh! Kevin wants to catch the bubbles!



After the bubbles, it was time for birthday cake!



Everyone sang "Happy Birthday" while Kevin looked on. The theme of the party was a Rubby Ducky Luau, hence the rubber ducky balloon!



Mmmmm, birthday cake. Kevin dipped a finger in the icing and had some cake before getting his lunch. Yum!



After cake, Kevin and some of his friends played in the sand and water table. Kevin's buddy CJ showed him how to steer a boat through the sandy water.



At the end of the party, Kevin was completely soaked and dirty! Daddy hosed him off outside and bundled him into a towel to go upstairs for a fresh outfit.



After an attempted (but ultimately unsuccessful) nap, Kevin played with the rest of his birthday balloons. Happy Birthday Kevin!

Confetti!

We just got back from a little friend's birthday party. Kevin is having fun with the contents of the goody bag - not the toys or treats, but the shredded paper!

Look who's getting dirty!

Kevin checks out the new gravel-filled playground at his buddy Ryder's house. He had a great time laughing and digging around. By the time he was done, he was covered in so much dust he looked like a little statue.

Bubbles

Mommy tests the bubble machine to be used at Kevin's 2nd birthday party next week. Beaucoup bubbles!

Rosemary!

Kevin loves the rosemary bush by the patio. He plays with it until he smells like rosemary himself. How sniffy!

Playgroup at the park

Today we went to playgroup at a park. It was a beautiful day, and Kevin had a great time climbing the hill and making a break for "the woods".

Bouncing ball

Now that summer is here, Kevin is having fun with his playground ball in the backyard.
