Slippery When Wet

Ah, the slip 'n slide!  

So, the fam was at a birthday party Saturday night.  The birthday girl (Molly, 23) had a kiddie pool and slip 'n slide for the kids (yeah, right).  That was too much fun for Ben and he wanted to get out his slip 'n slide that had been held captive in its box since last September.  So we did!  I think that we all laughed so hard our sides hurt.  He launched himself down that thing so fast he would catch air at the end.  

And don't think that Ruby didn't want in on the action! 

Young Ollie, not yet the slip 'n slide type, kicked back on a blanket in the shade.  

After that, we spent the rest of the evening on the back patio w/the telescope.  Ben, our young astronomer, gazed at close ups of the moon while Oliver, our youngest astronomer, gazed at shiny things...that's what babies do.  

Look at my guys!!

Oliver would like all to know that he has decided to do without his 2:00 a.m. bottle.  So thanks, but no thanks!  He is much happier sleeping straight through until 5:00.  THANK U, OLIVER!!!

Oh, and Ben learned how to cross his eyes.
