Help!

We were doing some yardwork outside and Brayden was playing by the flowerbed. I looked up to find him like this...diaper at his ankles, signing "help!".

We stopped at the zoo on our way home from vacation. Bryce was in charge of the map and was very concerned that we might miss seeing the spider monkey. We did eventually find it and he looked at it for maybe 2 seconds. Brayden watched a few animals and made the animal signs but he mostly enjoyed watching the people at the zoo :) We were watching the ostriches together and he looked at me concerned and signed "no bird" so I knew it was time to move on.

The Duckmobile

We took a tour of the town in the duckmobile! Bray loved the tour!

Cape Cod inflatable Park!

We all had a great time at the Cape Cod inflatable park. Bryce loved the inflatable called "boot camp" the best since it was an obstacle course and he could compete like they do on american ninja warrior. Brayden loved the big, fast slides. Immediately after getting off one slide I asked him if he liked it and he signed "yes, more please!" very fast and ran to another slide.

Cape Cod beach

The boys enjoyed playing at the beach and collecting shells.

Lunch at the Lobster Boat

We went to lunch at a restaurant called the Lobster boat. Bryce thought the pizza he had was the best he ever tasted and loved that it was served on a frisbee that he got to take home. Brayden was happy looking out over the water and playing with his CAT construction machine. At one point I turned to see him rolling the CAT on the back of the man's chair sitting behind him and about ready to roll it right up his back...caught him just in time!

The Cape Cod Potato Chip Factory

We went on the factory tour to see how Cape Cod chips were made. Both the boys loved watching the tour but enjoyed the free samples best at the end of the tour...so much so that we went twice!

Mini golf

Playing mini golf in Cape Cod at the wild animal lagoon...Brayden was not too fond of the water features here but enjoyed the animals. And Bryce loves mini golf anywhere, anytime :)

On our way to Cape Cod!

Brayden was very relaxed in his carseat on the car ride to Cape Cod this summer.

Boat cruise with Nana and Papa

We went on a boat cruise in Old Forge with Nana and Papa. Brayden snuggled up with Papa and Bryce sat with Nana and took some pictures of the scenery. After a while we took the boys to the lower level and let them pick some snacks. I'm not surprised at their choices...Brayden chose Reese's cups and Bryce chose Doritos :)

Dinner time and wacky stories!

The cousins enjoyed eating dinner together outside while in Old Forge. This night they decided to each tell a wacky story. Bryce is still telling me, "no one laughed at my story and it had some really funny parts!". According to Bryce...Jacob had the wackiest story of the night.

The beach in Old Forge

Bryce and Bray enjoyed playing at the beach in Old Forge. Brayden soon had this fellow beachgoer and his mom retrieving toys for him that he threw in the water :)
