Fun Filled Weekend

I'll actually start with a picture from last weekend, because it's just too cute not to share with everyone.

So, I'm not smart enough to put the pictures in order because Megan does most of the posting. But, with Megan out of town this weekend, I thought it was my job to post the updates from Ohio from this past weekend (with some extras thrown in for fun).

This was supposed to be the last picture, but somehow it's first. This is the flag retirement ceremony from Cameron's Pack Graduation on Sunday. It was a very nice, humble reminder about the sacrifices that have been made for us and how the flag symbolizes everything that we, as a country, stand for.

Cameron officially "crossing over" from Tiger Cub to Wolf.

Our favorite Cub Scout.

On Friday, I volunteered at Cameron's school for field day. Here are a few pictures of the day's activities.

Bounce House

A game where two sides competed to get the marble from one end of the group to the other using small pieces of PVC pipe.

Beach Ball "Team Race"

Sponge Race

Once again, Cameron's baseball game was rained out on Saturday. But, thankfully, Aunt Stacey came to visit again and saved the day. She and Cameron had a great time playing with Legos, making cards and hanging out together.

June already!!!

Wow, we have been keeping so busy that I just realized today that I hadn't updated the blog for a while. Cameron is now officially done with soccer and into baseball. He only has 3 days of school left for the year and then begins his summer vacation in which he will spend a few weeks at a time between our house and his mom's house. He seems to really love baseball and actually does pretty well with it. In his first game last week he went 2-3 with one run scored and an RBI. He also did really well in the field. Last night he had another game but only got 2 innings in before the rain came down and we were all stranded in a torrential downpour. He did manage to get another hit last night and made a pretty good play at 3rd to get a runner out. I am mildly impressed by his ability considering he's only had 2 practices and two games to learn the game.




This past weekend Noah got his first haircut. He sort of had a "Gene Keady" style comb over so it was time to get it trimmed up. Since Aunt Stacey came to visit, she joined us on our walk over to Cookie Cutters for the momentous occasion. Surprisingly, Noah did very well until the very end when the stylist busted out the clippers. He looks so much older now that he's had his hair cut. He seems to be transitioning to toddlerhood so quickly. He is everywhere these days and I am exhausted for it. We have learned that because of his obsession with the toilet, all lids should be closed at all times to prevent wet messes. He is starting to babble more often and occasionally we get a ma ma or da da and even a ba ba sometimes. He has transitioned nicely to drinking from a sippy cup and yesterday I noticed that he is finally cutting his first tooth.




In other news, we finally got around to checking out the Columbus Zoo. We knew it was close to our house but we had no idea how close. It's only about 5 miles down the road and it's so easy to access. We didn't get to check much of it out but the part we did check out was really cool. The day we went was boy scout day so Cameron got to do a ropes course which he thought was so fun. We did purchase a membership to the zoo (which was built by Jack Hanna and is ranked #1 in the nation) so if you come visit, we can take guests too!!!




We have a VERY busy month ahead complete with visitors every weekend and then our big family vacation at the end of June. I'll keep you posted when I have a chance. Have a great summer!!!
