Bubbles!

What a great night the boys and I had. Darin had to work at Best Buy so we went to the gym. We usually go and meet a friend there (she has 3 boys, that Conner and Parker are friends with). Parker has just recently gotten better about not crying the entire time he's in the childcare. Anyway, our gym is in a sort of town square with shops and a gazebo in a big quad type of area. So after we were done working out my friend Jenn and I decided to go out and let the boys play in the grassy area. Well, on the way over there it started to rain-hard! But it was so nice! It was hot outside and the rain was a wonderful break! It put us all in very playful moods! So when we got home (after a very scary drive in the POURING down rain)... we got to play before bed. Conner was a spider- shocker!LOL Parker of course copied his brother with the spider thing, but he soon got distracted by some of my belly showing. This kid is a bubble blower through and through. Sometimes he doesn't even need to see skin to think about it, but if skin is showing it is all over! He blew bubbles on my belly forever! It was so funny! Then Conner had to join in. The very strange thing about their bubble blowing is that Parker is just funny when he does it... But for some reason Conners bubbles tickle like nothing else. He blows the bubbles and then he sits there for a second breathing on your belly! It drives me crazy!LOL I laugh hysterically everytime he does it, which just provokes him. Honestly one of the funniest things I have ever experienced!
On a more developmental note (LOL-totally not really developmental) Parker has decided that everytime Conner sits on the toilet he needs to as well. He just sits there and plays with himself for a little while and then tells me "dow" which means down in Parker lingo. He has a very lazy way about his speech... For example- we are teaching him to ask to be excused from the table. So he says "mai"... Well, actually I don't know how to spell it, but it is a really sad attempt at May I... and he doesn't even attempt the "be excused from the table" part. Lazy guy. Ohwell. He did say rain today, among some other things I can't remember. It seems like everyday he trys to say more and more things! It is so exciting, because we have been worried about his speech for some time now as he has not been much of a talker.
Anyway, tonight was a great night! Those boys are such a joy!
