Adventures in Downtown Madison

During the warmer months, the local businesses on Main Street stay open late for Fourth Fridays and the Madison Trolley is patrolling the roads.  This Fourth Friday also happened to be Old Court Days, so our dear friend Julie was in town selling her jewelry (www.JulieBunchOriginals.com).  To convince the kids to go downtown, I said we could ride the trolley....

Little did I know that Judy the Trolley Driver loves to have children help her.  Both Boys got to drive with Judy and they loved it.  I love our community and that there are so many people that make it great!!! 

After our Trolley ride, we stopped for dinner and LBH got his face painted for the first time.  LBH was apprehensive about it and actually changed his mind twice before finally climbing into the chair.  From the artist's collection, he chose Wolverine!  Mr. Chubbs was also going to do it but backed out.

LBH loved that he had "claws" as well!!

Overall, a great visit with Julie and a fabulous evening in our small town!!!!

#TBT - LBH has some dance moves

Rarely can I capture LBH dancing since I can rarely catch him not running through our world.  When he was about 6 months old, we introduced him to Mumford & Sons.

When he was 18 months, we capture him rocking out in my friend's office.

Never a dull moment when this kid is around!!!

LBH Ingenuity

LBH wanted to climb up the slide, so I told him to use his feet.  The video above is his interpretation!

Sorry for the delay.  This video is from April, 2015....oops, Mom Fail!

Trip to the Zoo - Fall 2015

We visited the Indianapolis Zoo with our family friends, the Lichlyters.  The boys had a blast, so much so that YaYa and Papa bought a membership in 2016.

Quinn loves the Snake area, probably because Nan Janet didn't!!

Connor was overwhelmed by the snake!

Waiting for the Dolphin Show to start

Connor wasn't a fan of the Dolphin show, so we went outside to walk around.

Quinn climbing any chance he got!

Zoo Train with Mommy

It was Zoo Boo, so we got a spider ring

I have decided to recreate this picture every time we visit the zoo!

Mr. Chubbs the Animal Lover

If Mr. Chubbs was a decision-maker in our family, we would have a plethora of dogs.  He loves them!  He can hear their bark miles away (ok a slight exaggeration).  He wants to pet them and doesn't mind their kisses.

Mr. Chubbs/Baby Genius turns 1!

Happy 1st Birthday to my Baby Genius!!!

He loves cupcakes!!!

Opening Gifts with his daycare friends (including Big Brother LBH)!

Weekly pictures Week 23-48

Wow am I behind on posting updates. We moved in March so I lost my awesome chalkboard that reminded me to take a weekly picture. Amazingly enough I have managed to get a weekly picture of ConMan / Mr. Chubbs as well as some cute videos. It helped tremendously that I upgraded to a smartphone. Mr. Chubbs continues to be a very content, happy baby.  He is full of smiles and joy.  He loves watching his big brother play and is super excited to join in on the fun.
