Fishing trip with Dad







My Father and I took a long weekend and went fly fishing in Colorado. We had a great time and saw some fantastic scenery. Allie and Jeffrey enjoyed the company of Grandma Jane while the dads played. Dad and I spent two days on two different rivers. The fist day was a little rough we did about 5 miles of hiking to get to some of the fishing. The second day was a little better we both landed fish and had several that "got away".

a few quotes June 23rd

On our drive to school/ day care today, this was some of Jeffrey's commentary:
"be careful mommy", "you drive nice", "dont cross the lines", "green light", "my daddy crosses over the lines", "red light", "a dump truck", "mommy is the car wash open, you have bird poop on the car", "Im going to school, Im going to drive a tractor (a play tractor in the gym), Im going to share my card (post card from my mom/borrie borrie)-it has mills (wind mills)". All of which were repeated multiple times
He is really enjoying commentary on what everyone is doing and everything that is going on.
Other favorites are instructions, to mommy, daddy, the cats, his baby sitter, the other cars on the road, his various buddies/peers... You get the idea, I think someone is going to like being a big brother.
Unfortunatly he has also taken to signing a variety of sylables in nonsense song, and the one he seems to like the sound of most is "die", he doesnt say it with mallace or meaning, just "die, die, die, die" and often to my belly, I try to get him to use "la" which lasts for a few seconds and then its back to "die"

fire station tour

My moms group and I went to the local fire station for a tour, jeffrey was very excitted. A little scared of the fire man in full gear but loved the rest of it. He screams when ever he hears a siren that "someone needs help, someone has a bad owie" so it was great for him to get an upclose look at the firemen.

Random Moments Early June

So Jeffrey loves his new Pj's from Elane and Dennis, have to say its one of the few moments in which yuo can see any Asian traits.
He has also broadened obsessions to include airplanes (which is what he is being below-gotta love the imagination) and anything else with a motor, ie play golf bag on wheels is now his lawn mower which he likes to follow daddy with.

Recent quotes:
"chop chop guys, lets go"
"Bella (our cat) needs to go on time out" -after she jumped on the table
"I want two daddy's" has also said "I want two mommies" not sure if this has anything to do with the idea of sharing us when little brother arrives
There have been tons of others, unfortunatly all of my mental capacities as a pregnant women are used up at work and I have failed to remember most of them.

Additional Pics with Jane and Al

Just a few more pics with the grandparents
