Home town visit!

Wow I've been terrible about updating lately! The weather has been pretty nice here so we've been out doing things, plus our computer decided to go haywire so I've been making sure all of our pictures and videos are backed up just in case!

Here are just a few snapshots of our every day life. This little boy brings us such JOY! He is really gaining a lot of personality and keeps us laughing at all times!

 These cups keep him really occupied while I cook! He'll go get them out of the pantry, sit down and stack and unstack over and over. Sweet thing!

 This is one of our new favorite things to do. I saw it on Pinterest and of course you can get like 15 glow sticks for a dollar at Target! It's really hard to get a picture of though, we turn the lights all the way off but the flash on the camera makes it look like they're on.

 We flew to Midland a couple of weeks ago for a visit to our beloved Batesies. I haven't seen any of them since August and that is TOOOOOOO long! Here's Gage in his sweet outdoor stroll gear. :)

 It was kind of cold and rainy, but when we got a chance we took them for a quick stroll in the wagon.

 I'll spare you from all 97 Cheeto pictures I took. It was HILARIOUS! Levi hadn't ever had Cheetos before but Gage shared with him. He quickly figured out how much he loved them! Also....excuse the terrible hair. I am definitely aware that he needs a hair cut but he acts like you're trying to murder him when you cut his hair so I'm putting it off.

 Precious grin and beautiful blue eyes!!

 "Hey man, you said you let me have some so I'm taking them ALL!"

 Let me tell ya bout my best friend :)

 Sunday it was pretty chilly, but sunny! We decided we'd use the West Texas wind to fly a kite! Then we remembered how much we hate West Texas wind!

 Crazy kite flew into the shed!

 "Here man! I'll push you!"

 Then it was off to the park! Levi has recently really gotten into the park! We take him after school to our neighborhood park if it's nice and he loves to slide! He looks so big, he can scoot himself down all by himself, climb up the stairs to get to the top (with us behind him of course!) I'm still in awe of how fast they change!

 Race time!!!

 Gage was fascinated with the rocks! It was hilarious....he was diving and swimming in them!

 You can see such differences in their personalities already! Gage is a daredevil in the making. He is not afraid to do anything! I swear he would have just walked into that pond if we'd let him. Levi, on the other hand is very cautious with almost everything he does.

 Love these two! I can't wait to see them grow up together!

We had such a great and relaxing time. I know Crane is a teeny tiny town with nothing in it....but it's still home and I still love to visit. Eat some delicious mexican food of course and chill with my other family. They're not blood....but they're most definitely FAMILY!
