Catch a Goldfish

Here in town 6 parks have wadding pools for the kids. Lifeguard, 1ft deep, fenced in, and free! Wonderful right? Well, they closed the pools and had an event one night for the kids. The kids could bring something to catch one of the 400 goldfish they put in the pool. We had one fish, why not get him a friend (since he last friend died) Neacel was able to catch a fish, and we then had 2 goldfish named Nemo. (Since then, all the fish died, the first one that died was from Petsmart and I swear it had something because it died, then new cought goldfish died, then our original Nemo died.) Neacel thought it was so cool to catch a goldfish in the same pool he goes swimming in. Im glad that something that simple was so exciting for him. Broden and I enjoyed from the sidelines.

Lake Erie Date Day

Lake Erie, where do I begin? You really shouldn't get in the water, you can see yucky water spilling right into it, but its the closest thing we have to a beach right now. So Nick and I took Neacel one day. Luckily, Neacel wasn't a fan of the water, but loved the sand. It might have helped that we bought some sand toys. By the end of the trip Neacel was

covered from head to toe. Nick and I just relaxed. Broden got to nap and spend time with Nana and Pops. All in all, a nice relaxing day for everyone

Brody's First Haircut

I am really behind on posts. Over the next 2 weeks Im going to be posting a lot, it probably won't all end up in the right order but thats ok, right?

(June 3rd 2011)

Brody was mistaken for a girl a little too much. I guess the sports outfits and boy shoes didn't help. People were constantly saying how cute "she" is and giving Neacel an extra treat for his "sister" (which only confused him). Then one day I was brushing Brody's hair and realized how long it had gotten. I decided that even though he was only 7 months that I had to get his hair cut. We had a coupon and got it done. I'm glad that we did though, it looks so much better!

As of today he needs another cut. 2 months later, his hair is getting longer and might be ready for a trim. We are going with the longer look for him though to help the curl.
