Overbay Adventures: Hanging out...and growing up!

Once again, we are behind on posting. Sorry! The boys are growing so fast and learning something new everyday. They are moving quickly now and love running around everywhere. Garrett is an expert climber and will be on top of the dining room table in a hurry if you leave one of the chairs pulled out. He can also climb the stairs standing up while holding onto the banister. New words are being added to their vocabulary everyday, including recent additions of "bowl" and "outside". Walker loves shoes. He goes and get one of our shoes (he especially loves to lug around Jim's size 14 clunkers) and gives them to you, hoping you'll put them on. Garrett loves balls and can spot one from a mile away, whether its on Walker's shirt, in a restaurant, on tv, or in the backyard. Both of the boys have started cuddling blankets, especially when they are tired. It's adorable! We have lots of dance parties, and they point to their CD players when they want to hear music. Walker has mastered the bounce, while Garrett likes to sway. Garrett has become a big Sesame Street fan lately and will point to the tv when he wants to watch it. They can point to their eyes, ears, nose, mouth, bellies, and toes. Their level of comprehension continues to amaze me. They can follow simple directions, like "go get us a book", and truly seem to understand nearly everything we say.

We have been really busy lately and are enjoying what's left of summer with all of our baby buddies. The boys have enjoyed a trip to Mill Mountain Zoo in Roanoke with their friend Kathryn, several playground trips and evening walks with our buddy Max, backyard playtime with our friend Kellen, lots of MOMs club playdates, a visit to Romp N Roll, and lots of other fun activities. More pics of all of this to come. Here are some recent "hanging out" pics....
