The Giles Files: May Mobile Moments

Yeah, I've been kinda neglecting the blog this month. But, for good reason! We have had a busy month full of family fun with daddy, packing and a move! Here are all the pictures to prove it!

This was around the time Briant finished with school.
Andrew loves his daddy and was so happy to have
him home more than usual, it was cute to watch.

He started doing this in late April, but I never got
a picture of it till this month. It really scared me to
death that he wanted to do this all the time, I didn't
think he was ready for it at all. He proved me wrong.
Now I have a bad case of hoovering mama.
(I stand under him just in case)

Every time he makes it to the top platform he says,
"I DID IT!"

It's okay mom, I'm growing up...

He's doing this one too. Daddy doesn't seem worried.

That smile...

A much needed date with my hubby. It's been awhile.
We went all out, dinner at Longhorn Steakhouse,
and a movie (Iron Man 3). We even had the sitter
put Andrew to bed and he did just fine. Honestly, I keep asking
myself why we didn't do this sooner!

Sick/Teething day.
Fevers can really take it out of you.
Last molar finally came it!!!

SEE...

I found this awesome recipe for Pizza Hut Pan Pizza Crust.
It. Was. Yummy.
A keeper for sure!

Yellowwood Forrest was incredibly beautiful. Andrew loved throwing
rocks in the lake. We saw animals!
Snakes (in the water--no wonder there was no swimming),
lizards, frogs, fish, butterflies, squirrels.
I'll write a separate post and include all the
pictures I took with the big camera.

Andrew has a fetish with playing in the car.
He loves sitting in the front seat! 10 more years buddy and you
can sit up there all you want.

We spent a couple of nights over at the neighbors
playing board games after all our kids went to bed.
(Our monitor stretches that far, so we could still hear Andrew)

This game is called Nuns on the Run! It was so much fun!
I really think my family would love it!

We made a trip up to the Children's Museum in Indy.

I love bumblebee from Transformers.

I thought it was cool to watch these guys clean.
I think that would be a fun job!

At the Hot Wheels exhibit. Andrew hording all the cars,
so none of the other kids could find any.

He loved driving the bug.

He could play in the sand all day!

He's going to be a good daddy someday.
He really likes real babies too and often times will go
talk to them.

Diggers and dumpers. He see's them EVERYWHERE!

We got a kindle to watch movies in the car
(we will need it this summer for sure).
I figured out how to puton my own movies and
it works great. I got some free games apps and books
for Andrew too.

Making a long train.

Side by side. I always saw pictures of my nieces and nephews doing this,
I didn't realize Andrew was at that age already!

MOTHERS DAY!

Andrew had his first bite of black licorice. He loved it.
Way to go bud!

We visited the zoo in Indy too.
Andrew with the walrus'.

Dolphin show was pretty cool. I forgot my big camera,
so the pictures on my phone didn't really turn out great.

Big rhinos.

Andrew's new thing is pushing the stroller. And
her freaks out when anyone tries to help him.
Sigh!

Elephants!

Baby Elephant.

Waving to Andrew.

Tall boy. He has literally grow a foot+ since he was born.
WOW!

The had a train at the zoo. He LOVED it. He didn't want to get off.

The bear was out and looking like he wanted to eat us!

The tiger was sleeping!

The had a butterfly exhibit. We saw all kinds of cool butterflies.

Coming out of their chrysalis.

This one was my favorite. Can you see it?

Right there.

Here's a little better picture. The blue one. We saw it in Costa Rica.

This is what it looked like on the outside. They just didn't open their wings
so I could get a picture.

Briant found one and held it. So cool!

While we were up in Indy, we just had to drive to see the Great Harvest.
It was a little further north, so we thought since we were that far,
we could go see it.

We got some Asiago Sourdough. I still think Idaho Falls GH is the best,
but it was good to see good ol GH and smell the familiar aroma!

Andrew loved the Cinnamon Rolls "ice cream".

Some friends introduced us to this place. YUMMY.
We love the deep fried cheese curds.

When you are a student, you have to say a lot of good-byes at
the end of the year. We hate good-byes!

Fell asleep on the way home from shopping in Indy.
I loved how his glasses slid down.

MMmmm. S'mores Bars!

I'm such a big boy.... I went to the dentist for the very first time!
I have 20 healthy, white teeth!

I thought that since Andrew has all his baby teeth,
it would be good to finally go to the dentist.
He didn't really like it, but he loved the bouncy ball
they gave him.
