The Mall

With the weather still hot, the boys and I have been going to the mall to get out of the house. The boys love it at the little play area they have at the mall.

"Peek - A- Boo"

A lot has been going on. Our garden is all gone now and we have pulled our watermelon plant so we could have our backyard back. Our watermelon plant was very productive. We got 9 full grown watermelons from the plant, and quite a few other little ones that didn't make it.

Camron keeps growing up so quickly. He started walking about 6 weeks ago and is now running around the house. Edward and Camron are now starting to be able to play together and it is so nice to see them getting along. They also like to pick on each other. It seems like it wasn't too long ago that I was telling Edward to stop picking on Camron, but now it is Camron who picks on Edward.

Edward is enjoying going to school and riding the bus. Every morning he gets up and tells me that he wants to go to school (which is good, except for the days he doesn't have school). While he is waiting for the bus to get here, Edward loves to sing. His favorite being "The Wheels on the Bus." He is doing so much better with his speech. It is so nice to hear him talking and saying exactly what he wants instead of us having to guess.

Ed is enjoying his new job. Training has been going well. He has been following other field engineers for the past few weeks, but in two weeks he gets to have them follow him. Which means he is getting closer to being finished with training. We are all so proud of him.

Along with walking Camron has discovered my pots and pans. Here he took them all out so he could get in. Only problem was once he got in, he couldn't get out.

There is supposed to be a top on this table. Camron likes to take it off so he can sit in it.

This is a picture Edward took. He likes to take pictures with the camera. He is starting to get better. We just need to teach him how to get the camera to focus all of his pictures are fuzzy.

Camron

Camron keeps getting bigger every day. Just this past week he started walking. He is only taking a few steps at a time, but we think that in a week or two he will be walking all the time.

Camron loves to eat shoes. We had a birthday party for his daddy this past Saturday and everyone left their shoes at the front door. Camron had plenty of shoes to play with.

Crazy face.

All dressed up for church.

Edward loves his little brother. They love to crawl around the floor together.

Of course, I know I'm cute.

1st Day of School

My little boy is growing up. Today is Edward's first day of preschool. He has a bit of a speech delay and so he qualifies for preschool in the public school. I am so excited for him, I know he is going to have a fun time. He was really excited to go to school this morning. He got to wear his new school clothes and shoes.

Here he is all ready for school.

Is it here?

We decided to wait outside the last few minutes because it was nice and cool outside (which is something that hardly ever happens in the summer).

Once the bus pulled up Edward got scared. It was big and loud. Maybe tomorrow it won't be so scary.

Pictures

We are all doing well in the Burgoyne household. Just thought we'd post a few pictures.

Camron just lounging around.

Edward loves his uncle Josh.

Josh was nice and let Edward attach him with the garden hose.

After all it was pretty HOT outside.

Edward is learning how to take pictures with the camera.
Here is one of him taking a picture of himself.



Edward got a new pair of sunglasses the other day.
He likes to put them on and pose for the camera

Watermelon

Last summer we enjoyed eating watermelon and spitting the seeds on our back porch. At the beginning of this summer, we noticed some watermelon plants growing in our grass. We decided to let them grow and see if we could get any watermelons from them. The watermelon plant has now completely covered the grass in front of our porch and is continuing to grow.

I couldn't get the entire watermelon plant in the picture.

We are now starting to see some watermelons growing. We have two that are thriving and several tiny watermelons that we hope to see get bigger. Here are our two biggest watermelons.

Toilet Paper Bandit

Camron has become our adventurous little boy. He likes to stand up next to anything he can pull himself onto. We have tried to keep our bathroom doors closed afraid that he would discover toilets. Well, he discovered our bathrooms, but has found something more exciting to play with.

He was having such a blast.

Now everytime he sees the bathroom door open, he darts right to the toilet paper. I guess we get to enjoy unrolled toilet paper for awhile.
