Roman turns TWO!!

Roman turned two on Oct 6th. God was good and gave us perfect weather to Roman could do his most favorite things...playing in puddles and running around naked.

We had a small celebration for him on Oct 8th with a few friends and Nana who was in town for the birth of Titus. He got overwhelmed with opening just one gift that it was hard to get his attention to open another so the gift opening was spread out over several days.

Here are some photos of his celebration!!

Welcome Titus Matthew

Bay Beach Amusement Park

It has been awhile since I posted so some of these photos are from a couple of months ago. Bay Beach Amusement Park in Green Bay, WI has a great park designed for young kids with free parking, free admission and 25-50 cents per ride. It is a great family outing which Roman may have enjoyed more, had he not had a high fever that day. We never realized that he wasn't feeling well until part way through the day. The photos show his lack of enthusiasm of riding around in circles in the heat while fighting off a virus...and well who could blame him.

not sure we'll make it back there this year before they close for the season although it would be nice for Roman to experience it when he is feeling healthy.

Baby No More

Well our baby is growing up...He is picking up new words daily and the tell tale sign he is no longer a baby is that he can now eat corn from the cob ;) Bet you didn't see that as a defining moment into boyhood...but it seems like a logical step! Now onto potty training and we'll officially be there.

More Resident Wildlife

A deer deciding to brave it in the daylight and munch on the bushes in the back yards of the town homes.

One of the many resident snapping turtles that was sunning himself on the rocky beach of the pond. This one is small compared to many others we have seen.

Green Bay Zoo

After days of 50 degree rainy weather, we finally got a break of warmer weather and we ventured up to Green Bay, WI to check out their zoo. I didn't get nearly as many photos as I had wanted but here are a few.

Just Random Photos... June 2011

This blog is just a random collection of photos taken over the past week or so with no particular reason.

Well the couple days of nice weather turned sour on us and we have had several days of rain and 50 degree weather. I should be thankful that this doesn't stop Roman from being outside, but when he plays in the rain puddles and drenches himself from head to toe, it makes it harder to enjoy.

Below you can see he is breaking in his new truck. You know this must be Matt's son b/c he has to make a workout out of everything. It was too easy to push it on its wheels so he must turn it on his side and push it up and down the driveway.

His "airpane" face... we are off to locate it in the sky.

His current attraction to airplanes has him asking to read his book before he even gets out of bed in the morning. I am not sure the library will get this book back in one piece since he flips through this book dozens of times a day.
Our neighborhood frog pond that we visit frequently. Roman is sitting watching the frogs and listening to them sing to one another.
The older more experience frogs ( as seen below) show little fear of humans and will just sit there while you approach him.


Mr. Shoe-less!! I wonder why I bother putting them on him in the first place- they always find themselves thrown off. I guess I could enforce the shoe rule but I just think that part of being a kid is the freedom not to wear shoes.

My Mail Man...he loves to check the mail so we make trips to the mailbox several times a day!
Daddy helping with somersaults!
I think I was just shocked at the rarity of the photo below, that I had to capture it on film. He rarely sits still and takes in the sights...granted this really didn't last long but it was sweet while it lasted.
