New Obsessions

Cal is still very into trains and Thomas, but Michael isn't really (thank goodness).  Of course, Cal likes to like whatever Michael likes, so he follows along with just about anything.  The new thing in our house is Legos and Batman.

DeeDee found some Batman pjs and sent them to us today as a surprise.  She had no idea that I had been out at Target just yesterday trying to find them, unsuccessfully!

Of course, trying to get the pictures of Michael was like PULLING TEETH.  He is 4.5 and has a BAD CASE OF THE WIGGLES all the time!  Cal was willing to stand back against the wall and pose for his pictures, then rushing over to preview them to make sure he liked them!

Chef Hats

Okay--so the boys got these chef hats from my aunt, Amy, for Christmas.  They decided yesterday that they needed to wear them with their sunglasses on while inside.  They also needed to wear them outside while swinging.  Then Michael said his hair was getting hot and he took it off so Cal followed suit.

Tomatoes

Can you believe these beauties????  I was out this evening admiring my tomato "trees" and I think I can officially say that I will probably have more tomatoes than I can personally eat!

Bathtub Boys

They look like they're in their own little worlds don't they?

They call it the GARDEN State

Now I know why they call this the Garden State--check out my tomato plants.  This is the first time I've ever planted tomatoes in my yard and some of them are bigger than my fist.  I love home-grown tomatoes so much that I can eat them like an apple, so I'm going to have a happy tummy the rest of the summer!
