Reid Crawls

Reid has been swaying back and forth on his knees for some time. This week he started really moving forward. He totally skipped the army crawl and just went for it!

He is the sweetest baby. He is so soft and squishy, I can never get enough of this kid. At church he looks over my shoulder and smiles to the people behind us. Logan sits on the end of the pew and waves to the crowd like he's the king of England. These boys knows how to work it.

slip and slide

it's October and we're still breaking out the swim suits.
I found this beaut at wal-mart for $3.
The boys were wild with excitement. We set it up, turned on the hose and… they stood and looked at it. They had no idea what to do!
Talmage asked me, ‘do it first, mom’. Yeah, right!
Instead, I recruited all my interpretive dance moves and showed them what to do. (Good thing it was in the backyard…that would’ve been quite a show).
Sorry, I forgot to change the view before I uploaded this.

We never swim

So it seems like all the pictures we post are with the boys in swim suits. That would be because we wear them every day for several hours and some days for most hours of the day. Can you blame us? It's the HOTTEST summer on record. (I'm not joking, the hottest June and August on record and the 3rd hottest July on record.) I'm just grateful that we can be sunscreen-spraying, floating-wearing, otter pop-eating, ninja-diving, fun-loving people. How could we handle it otherwise?
Logan loves to chill-ax
both boys rock the floaties
Reid gives us a big open-mouth smile. (he doesn't enjoy the swimming scene as much, he is mostly inside taking a nap while we're working on our ninja-dives.)

We had a baby!

We had a baby! Reid James Bodine on June 21.
He weighed 7 lb 13 oz and was 19 inches long.
Right after birth he was bright eyed.
Some pictures I took today, on his 1 week birthday. Holy cow, it went fast.
Logan really loves his 'new baby'. He's a little too hands on. For that reason, we haven't let him hold Reid (we don't want him to think he really can hold the baby).

Another after birth shot, he came out so pink!

Riding the Bike

So a couple of weeks ago, we took the scooter bike and put Talmage on a pedal bike. He loved it. This was taken a couple of days later. Since then, he's started wearing a helmet, he's kind of a hazard to himself and others.
