It was haircut day for the boys today!
Today was Landon's first professional haircut. He did well and surprisingly sat still while his hair was being cut. By the way, Bryce took this picture! I wanted to document this moment for Landon, but I had to hold him. So, I asked Bryce to take a few pictures!
Bryce played outside this afternoon while John did yard work. He had a great time hanging out with Dad and riding one of his bikes around the yard.
It was a beautiful morning today so we tried to take a few photos outside with the boys before we went to church. It didn't work out very well...the sun was too bright!
Landon would not stop moving long enough for us to take a picture. He is too busy!
Cousins Hunter and Wyatt came over to our house last night to play. The boys had a great time playing and running around the house together.
A tender moment between Bryce and Wyatt.
Landon's favorite new activity is blowing bubbles. He is content blowing the bubbles himself or sitting on someone's lap as they blow the bubbles. When he sees a bubble, he says, "babowl."
Today Landon had his 15 month well check visit (a month and a half late...oops!). He weighs 22 pounds, 10.6 ounces and is 31 1/2 inches long.
Landon was very busy during his appointment. He looks calm and peaceful during this photo, however, a few seconds later, he tried to jump off the table! When we were asked if we had any concerns about his health and development, we said, "Our main concern is keeping him from killing himself."
Landon received two shots at the appointment and, needless to say, he left the office as an unhappy little boy!
Bryce and Landon had fun making their own pizza for lunch today. Today was Landon's first time eating pizza with cheese because we just discovered soy mozzarella cheese.
Landon enjoyed sampling the ingredients as much as he enjoyed making the pizza! He is eating the sauce in this picture.
In this picture, Landon is trying his cheese before he puts it on his pizza.
Bryce was really excited when he woke up today and found out that we had no plans! He wanted to stay at home all day and play in his pajamas.
We went to another Hershey Bears Hockey game this evening. Bryce had a great time because his cousins were there as well as our friends the Smeltzers. Bryce loved sitting next to Grant during the game.
When we first arrived at the game, Bryce and Grant went to the top row and watched the players warm up on the ice.
Landon, of course, got a lot of attention from Aunt Lisa and Emily.
We met Wes, Trina, Grant and Kenzie at Red Robin for dinner before we went to see the Bears play.
The boys were being really silly this afternoon. It all started with Landon trying to wear my shoes. Bryce needed to get into the action so he found John's shoes and walked around the house with them on.
We went to The Blast indoor playground this morning to play. We met Bryce's friend Grant there.
Bryce and Grant had a great time climbing together and sliding down the slide.
We took a break from playtime to have a snack.
Emily was a super helper with Landon at The Blast. She climbed everywhere with him and even took him down the slide a few times!
Cousin Emily had off from school today so she slept at our house last night.
Emily read books to Bryce and Landon before they went to bed last night.
Landon had a great time being pushed around in his car.
We helped Wally celebrate his 69th birthday by taking him (and Molly) out to brunch today.
Bryce especially loved his chocolate dessert!
Wally cleaned all of the chocolate off of Bryce's face. It was a mess!
We baked sugar cookies with the boys last night and John taught Landon how to scrape the icing off the cookie with his finger. Landon learned quickly how to do this and had a lot of fun eating icing! Needless to say, he was pretty hyper last night!
We received a few inches of snow today. The boys were very excited to go outside and play!
Bryce pretended his dump truck was a snow plow and loaded it with snow.
Landon loved being outside!
John was able to play outside with the boys for a few minutes after he got home from work today.
Bryce invited the "big boys" to come over and play. They had fun sledding down our drive way together.
This is a very special train because Bryce's great grandfather made it. He was a talented carpenter who liked to make toy trains. The trains are normally displayed on a shelf in Bryce's room and we allow him to play with them once in a while.
The boys had a lot of extra energy to burn this evening so we bundled them up and John took them outside for a few minutes. Bryce ran a few laps in the yard, climbed on his swing set and then he was ready to come back inside.
Landon didn't go very far beyond our house. He had many layers of clothing on to keep warm and he physically had trouble moving. He was content standing and watching Bryce run.
We painted our kitchen this weekend and Bryce was the "assistant painter." He helped with taping and painting (I am being very kind by describing his assistance as helping).
Bryce copied our actions...if I was on top of the counter, he wanted to be there too!
We have no idea why, but Bryce loves eating sushi. The kid won't knowingly eat a fruit or vegetable, but he will eat sushi! It baffles us why he will eat that but not a vegetable!
Landon is using sign language to tell us he wants "more" of something. On this particular occassion, he wanted more cheese. He loves his soy cheese!
