summer breeze

below is Dane playing bat guitar and above is the gorilla in the room...i mean Zoo.
Annika and Stephen came in town (the boys cousins) and everone got along GREAT! 
Stephen and Jarrett playing at grandma and grandpas.
annika and dane ... the cousins kinda teamed up as you can see.  it was lots and lots of fun

well, next week is the last week of school for the boys until next year.   All in all everyone is doing great.

its been a while...

Its has been about 2 months since the last update..and during that time we have a Danes 2nd birthday..

Below is Jarrett listining to my ipod.. he likes portishead, gypsy kings and really what ever you put it on for him to listen to.

above is Dane eating his birthday cake.. it was a really good Wonder Pets cakes... mmmmm

School will be ending soon and we now have a membership to the Museum of Nature and Science and will be getting a Zoo membership too, that way our weekdays will be full of adventure and learning. 

Everyone is doing well, and no big news to report.

christmas stuff

here is Dane showing off the new catapillar toy he got.
Jarrett got a whole heap of things...like this remote control race car.
and the boys got a train set

and above is Dane showing us Jarretts new big wheel.  

All in all christmas was fun..although i was sick.. anyway They boys had fun, the only problem is that Jarrett expected santa to come days after chirstmas was over.  He is fine with it now. We enjoyed seeing out aunts that came in town and enjoyed all other family too. 

My winding wheels.

i know these pictures are random and yes its has been a while since my last post. With the holidays, it has just been busy.

above is Dane and Mommy stringing up the christmas tree.. He really enjoys standing and throwing his toys to decorate the tree. 

Jarrett is now 3 years old. I cant belive it. He is such a big boy! The party was fun.. all sorts of family came and showered him with gifts and affection which he is a BIG fan of.  (who isnt)
OH ! the above picture is his airplane of spoons.  He was a the table and Dane and i were playing in the living room, all of the sudden he runs in and yells "Daddy! come see I made an airplane! I thought it was awesome. There is a better picture if anyone wants to see it. Its really amazing.

They are both soo smart. Dane is getting better at talking...when jade is at work he will ask me "mommy is?" and shrug his shoulders as in a question.  his personally is really showing too and loves to play ring around the rosey. Its all really FUN!

whew.

There is going to a whole bunch of random pictures with the captions that dont match up, so think of it as a game.  Anyway things are good around here.  The boys miss there mommie, but are slowing warming up to me.  I am more of a push over...but i am working on it. 

Below is a half cow-half child.  Dane is going to be a cow and Jarrett is going to be a t-rex for halloween.  we are all excitied about it too. Last night Jarrett helped mommie make cupcakes for halloween. ..and they were good. mmmmmm.

School is going well for both kiddos. They seem to like it and hare having fun, and if they like it now, i hope it carries over to where they will like school later on too.  I doubt it though.

Here they are together. Jarrett wanted to leave the costume on the whole time, and dane... well Dane doesnt like the cow head that goes with his.  

the picture below is (i think) the best one of all. It looks like he is dancing. awesome

the one above was a pre-hug...

Anyway the boys are over being sick... Dane was sick for about a week,then Jarrett got it. Ugh.

but everyone is better. Things are good.

Ghost Shark

ok, i know that the title of this post has nothing to do with the fagan clan, but i really like this picture

well Thursday was there first day of school. Everything was great! I walked them into the room, Jarrett went one way and Dane went the other. There was "good bye Daddy"... they just took off. AND they didnt want to leave. I am so excited for them but on the flip side of that, our little guys are growing up.
Also this week, Grandma Kathy was in town and we got to go to the aquareium (and i know that is spelled wrong) We love going there

behind the boys is a Jaguar. Jarrett thought it was great, but not so much with Dane. The best part about that was everyone went to see the Mayan dancers, so that left the jaguar to us. See, Daddy saw Apocalypto and doesnt want anything to do with the Mayans.

Oh. I am now a stay at home daddy. jade is working full time and i have the boys... yippie!

its been a while

Its just been really busy.. sorry for the delay
As you can see by the below pictures...we do lots of stuff outside.. Eather the pool or the sprinkler. Jarrett loves the water and Dane just wants to be outside. The boys start school on thursday. The get to go twice a week and i know they are looking forward to it. You know Jarrett was in daycare for a while and he had that interaction with other kids, not so much with Dane. But he will be just fine..he likes other people and kids, he is just more timid than Jarrett.

Jarretts practicing his river pose.

The boys are going to get up from there nap shortly and i need to get some stuff cleaned, so sorry this isnt more updates..
