Not Quite There Yet




Some of you may know this, and others not, but when I was a teenager, I was really into my bike.  A friend and I used to ride our bikes literally all day, but as I got older, my interest waned.  Recently, a co-worker has reignited that interest, and I've been spending a little bit of time fixing that bike back up.  I'm not really sure what my end-goal is here - whether I sell it or give it to Walt when he gets older - but it's been fun to reconnect with my past.  Here are some pictures of Walt that I took a couple of weeks ago before I began the rehab process.

Zoo with Gavin

While Sara and Francine were out shopping with Kelly and Zoe, all of the boys spent the morning hanging out.  We went to turtle park, the zoo, and then lunch.  It clearly took its toll on young Walter.

Balloon Glow


Every summer, there's a balloon race in Forest Park.  To kick it off, they have all of the balloons in a small area and let the common people walk among the enormous balloons.  Here are some pictures of Walt in awe....

Swim Class


Walt just started swim class last week, and this is the first session where a parent isn't in the water with him.  It's very focused training....

Boooo

So this weekend we went from having 2 working cameras to zero! And we had a great weekend! We traveled to Des Moines for a wedding of a close family friend. My mom took some pictures so I will get those up when I get them off her camera in a few weeks.
We are hoping to get a new camera VERY soon. Poor Francine- we are already taking less photos of her and now we have no camera! :)

Walt a mess at school

So turns out walt is quite the jackson pollack!  He came home one day last week with his shorts and shirt covered in paint! Here a picture that Merlene (his "principal") snapped of him at work and face full of paint.
