Brooms and Books

With the nice weather this spring we have been spending most waking minutes outside. The boys love it... and so do I. I can only imagine what our entire summer will consist of! The title of this post pretty much sums it up. If there is a broom in sight... anywhere... Aiden is in HeAvEn. Daddy's garage is one of those places. Kentucky Fried Chicken is another place. If I want to have a peaceful meal while out and about... I will just have to find someone willing to sweep in Aiden's area and he is mesmerised.

Ashton has no clue what his brother sees in the brooms, he prefers the trucks and BOOKS!

Daddy is walking silly imitating the boys are their ever so steady feet. We do a lot of truck walks, wagon walks, Burley walks, and walk walks around the neighborhood!

We also LOVE to walk around the yard and check (shake) the trees...

Aiden sandwiching himself into the one and only spot in the living room he is not allowed. He thinks he needs to check the cables in the back of the TV.

Cleaning day. Aiden had found our broom inside and he is AMAZED.

The boys have been toddling more and more and it seems like in a matter of a day, they went from being unsteady to trying to run. Aiden's feet couldn't keep up with him while heading down the driveway... he left some skin on the driveway ;(

Did I mention that Ashton loves books? "Buh... Buh... (everything seems to start with a "B". Even his shoes are "boos")

Both will be running in no time and it seems like each day they are attempting to say something new. Some popular words in the Wamboldt household are --

Aiden:

"BYE" "HI" "More" "Mama" "Daddy"

"Izzie" "Shhh Shhh" (Sweep, broom) "Baaa" (Sheep)

Ashton:

"Boo" (shoe) "Bath" "Baaa" (Sheep) "Buh" (Book)

"More" "Milk" "Mama" "Dada" "Nana" "Done"

I am sure I am forgetting some...

Both are also signing: All Done, Eat, More, Cookie, and we are working on Please and Thank You.
