Fourth Weekend and Wesley Videos

We had a really nice 3-day-weekend. Jer had the 3rd off, so Friday morning after breakfast he inflated and filled Clay's pool and then we walked to the grocery store. We had hoped that the hose water would warm up a little in the 2 hours we'd been gone - so Clay and I got in our swimsuits while Jer fed Wes. Unfortunately, it hadn't warmed up AT ALL and Clay and I froze, but he made me stay and play in there for 45 minutes anyway. That evening we headed up to my parent's house to watch the USU fireworks (their balcony has a perfect view). Wesley fell asleep right before the show started and slept through it inside the house. Clayton managed to watch half before laying his head on Jer's shoulder and conking out.

On the morning of the 4th, we headed out to Lewiston to see the parade there. Clay loved it! Especially once he figured out the whole 'run and pick up candy' thing. We sat and listened to the band in the park for an hour or so after the parade - it was fun! Next we came home real quick to cut up a watermelon and then drove over to Willow Park for a picnic with Jer's family. It was very yummy - home made sub sandwich, potato salad, watermelon, pink fluff, brownies and cupcakes. Clayton and Wesley enjoyed being out all morning, but were both asleep within minutes of leaving the park and both slept for 3 hours! Jer and I took the opportunity and watched "Taken" which he hadn't seen in the theater. Later that evening we walked up to main street and sat with Cristin and Mark to watch the Cache Valley Cruise-In. (Vintage and slick new cars drive up and down main street showing off.) Then we headed home and Clay and Jer got in the pool (much warmer water then).

Sunday we went to our meetings and then went over to my parents to spend the afternoon just chillin'. Dad made fried chicken - yum! After dinner, Jer and I brought the boys home and headed out for an evening walk. (We got a lot of use out of our stroller this weekend!)

Unfortunately, I didn't take my camera anywhere with me - but I do have 2 videos and a few pics of Wesley and one picture of Clay from this weekend.

This video is of Wesley giggling a little. Jer got a lot more out of him on Sunday at Mom and Dad's, but of course I didn't have my camera then. Wes is really starting to talk and giggle a lot these days!

Cute brothers.

Here is a good smile and his infamous 'concerned look'.

Currently I am requiring him to have mittens on at all times because he is chapping his poor little thumbs and index fingers by sucking on them contantly and with a lot of power!

Another cute smile and in the 2nd one you can really see his red hair. He still has blue eyes, too! Though they are a bit darker now - almost a bluish gray.

Bye!
