Everyday Craziness
We finally made it to our apartment swimming pool. Tyler loved it and we had lots of fun. Afterwards, we barbequed on our balcony.
Even though we live in a rented apartment, we still have things to do around the apartment. This week, Scott replaced the screens of the screen doors because we were afraid that Brooke would go through the weak spots. While we have lived here, Scott has installed light fixtures, sanded doors that scrape on the floor, replaced a lock, replaced a showerhead and rewired light switches.
Brooke moves fast and she goes everywhere! Her favorite place to be is in the middle of Tyler's toys. This irritates him to no end.
Remember anyone else doing this?
If you look closely at the picture below, you can see where Tyler took a bite out of the cone. We told him that he should start at the top in the future.

Trapped!

Here is a picture that we have been saving for a slow week.

Tyler-isms:
"Penciling" - Writing with a pencil.
"Tail cars" - Cars with rear spoilers.
"That little building down there, its called a city. We should go to it someday." - Remarking on our view.
"Pajama" - It is not plural because it is one piece.
"Daddy say, 'Of course that's a good idea'" - Putting words in Scott's mouth.
"The boys are going bye-bye. The boys leave and the girls stay home." - Describing how Tyler goes to school and Scott goes to work.
"I have a green tour bus because at the mall they don't have a purple tour bus so I have Tawni's green tour bus." - Describing his new Matchbox car. Tyler's favorite color is purple and his aunt Tawni's is green.
"Thanks for letting me swim in the other swimming pool." - Happy to be swimming in a pool and not at the ocean.
"Our building is turning." - After spinning around and getting dizzy.
"I don't want my pretzels, I want some of Arwen's pretzels." - The grass is always greener ...
