The Blaxton Boys

Last week Ash was out of town for a full week.  Not wanting to tackle a week by myself, and having the availability to travel, Maher and I went to visit the Blaxton's and Gia and Poppy.  Maher was so excited to hang out with his cousins and they were very excited to see him!  As soon as we got out of the car Maher was greeted with, "Hi Maher! Do you want to play in the sandbox?"  Maher and the his cousins love being outside and thankfully it's a dry heat at Gia and Poppy's.  We had such a wonderful visit and are looking forward to the next visit!

Waiting for take-off!
Digging in the sand box.
Poppy built this sandbox for all the grand-kids, and it is getting used!

Maher worked on batting practice.

PT showing the proper stance.
Maher ate cereal and milk for the first time.  Just like his big cousins!

Uncle Philip Pie is the designated bedtime story reader.  He does a wonderful job!

Of course we stopped at the Donut Stop after mass for some yummy donut holes.

"Hi Dada"

PT got an awesome pool for his birthday and this pool was frequented almost daily by the boys!

The "train trike" and some matching outfits

Yummy smoothies from Aunt Ju-ju

Three little Monkeys
A trip to the zoo, where we saw lots of "dog-dogs"

This monkey got out of his cage!

Avery and Maher really liked the Tiger/dog-dog.

Maher also surprised me by drinking "fuzzy orange juice" out of a big boy cup.


We brought the cute little escapee monkey home!

We had so much fun with our cousins and can't wait to go back and visit them again!

We had so much fun too! The boys have been including you guys in their nightly prayers now.

That one picture with the tiger looks like there is just that one fence which makes us look like crazy parents for letting them stand so close.
