Visiting the Dentist

The day before his birthday Leyton had his first dentist appt. Since he is so shy I was nervous about how he would do, but he did great, and the dentist said everything looked good. Here are a few photos from the visit:

Waiting patiently in the waiting room...Getting his teeth cleaned...and flossed!He was pretty excited about getting a new tooth brush and toothpaste!

Happy Father's Day!

For fathers day last weekend we were up north where we celebrated Leyton's birthday and father's day. I'll do a birthday post in a bit, but here are a couple photos of Dad and his boys on Father's Day:

I had Leyton and Cal in matching shirts that said: "You're no match for my dad"!

A Busy Weekend

Last weekend Eric came down to Dodgeville, and we made the most of our weekend! Friday it was HOT so Eric got a blow up pool and him and Leyton had a lot of fun doing that. Saturday they were out in it again by 8 am, and by 9:30 we were off to the Dairy breakfast in Mineral Point. We've meant to go every year we've lived here, but this is the first year we actually made it there. It's basically a very small fair with some animals, face painting, tractor rides, and of course a delicious breakfast! That evening we headed to Mineral Point for Gallery night, which we've done a few times and is always fun and interesting. All of the shops are open, and neat pottery studios. Sunday was another very hot day so we made it another pool day,and that evening was a trip to Madison to do some errands before Eric left for the cities again.

Leyton loved the Dairy breakfast! Ok, he loved the apple sauce and eggs, and I loved his pancakes for him ;)Leyton really was excited about getting his face painted, I swear! He loved the turtle, but wasn't going to let the guy doing it know that...Cal enjoying the tractor ride...Back at the house in the 95 degree weather, enjoying the pool! Leyton & Cal Sunday morning. My favorite time of day is when Leyton wakes up, because Cal gets so excited to see him (Cal is always up first, usually around 5:45). Leyton always tells me to lay Cal next to him and they just smile at each other! Also, Cal started getting a sippy cup and loves it!

Gone Fishing

Like a lot of other people we know, Eric and Leyton went fishing this past weekend! They went to Governor dodge and Leyton was lucky enough to catch a couple fish pretty quickly so that hooked him! ;) Sorry the photo isn't the greatest... It's on Eric's phone camera, but I'm impressed he took a picture for me, so I'm not complaining! This was the first fish Leyton caught this year (its a little hard to see it blending in with his shorts) and he looks pretty proud!

Cal's 6 month checkup

Cal had his 6month checkup on May 24th. He was a happy boy for Dr. Valyo and he said everything looked good. I'm very thankful that we made it through the winter without any ear infections, fevers, etc. I took lots of pictures of Cal and Dr. Valyo, because with Eric up in Mnpls now, who knows how many more Dr. appts we'll have with him... :(

Here are Cal's 6mo stats:
Weight- 18.8lbs, 67% (much bigger than Leyton! Just for fun I looked up Leyton's 6mo stats and he weighed 15.10lbs)
Height- 27 1/2", 84%
Head- 44cm, 50%
