Where to begin...

So I know that I have not been as diligent recently about blogging lately, but will try to do better...Anyway here is goes...
Lets begin with the 2 water parties the boys have ventured into. About a month ago, I was in the kitchen cooking and I heard Oliver and Emerson laughing hysterically. So of course I investigated, they weren't in the family room or Eli's room, so the only other choice was the bathroom ( which I normally keep them out of). So as I approach the bathroom I hear splashing noises, followed by laughter. ( Not a good sign). Of course by this time my suspicions are confirmed the boys are playing the potty ( Don't worry it was clean water and I had just cleaned it). They thought it was the funniest thing in the world, so after we took a picture, we promptly cleaned and disinfected them, and have been diligent about keeping the door closed or at least the seat to the potty down and so far no more potty parties.
The second party happened while we were outside playing (Isaac, Eli, Oliver, Emerson and I). we had left Eli's pool up because it was a pain to empty it each time. Up until this point Oliver and Emerson have not liked the pool at all and stayed away from it. Well that day the boys became adventurous. First Oliver ventured over and put his hands on the edge, of course water spilled over and got him fully soaked. Then he laid on the edge a splashed in the water. Of course then Emerson wanted to join in on the fun only he took it a step further, and got completely in the pool, then Oliver climbed in too. So both boys fully clothed had a great time playing in the pool.
Last Saturday Ultradent, the company Isaac works for, had an employee appreciation day at the Zoo in Salt Lake. So we took the opportunity of a free pass to the zoo and had an enjoyable day out as a family. We got to see the moneys, tigers, gorillas, giraffee, elephants, and lots of others. Eli was so excited to see all the waterfalls ( yeah I said the waterfalls), carousal, and the train.

Yesterday I was doing laundry and the boys were in the bathroom, what can I say they love the bathroom, playing with the shower curtain. Here is a video of them playing peek-a-boo, and loving every minute of it.
