Good Ol' Summertime...

Oh, what do you do in the summertime when all the days are long...




Oh, just all kinds of things...that is what is so great about summer. Carson's new favorite activity is sidewalk chalk. We were goofing around the other day, and I drew a little picture of our Cano family. He loved it...needless to say, I have now drawn many. He just can't get enough, although he makes me add dogs to the picture. I tell him no way, no how. We include them in the picture, but that is about as close as this family will ever get to owning a dog.


TA-DA...woowoo, we are one good-lookin family!


Baby boy discovering grass for the first time. He didn't mind it, just kinda sat there. Just like this.



Watch out people here he comes...lovin this bike!



Just what does our dear ol' dad do while the rest of us play....


We put him to work cleaning the garage. Thanks honey!


Of course dad got a little carried away with the hose, here is Carson after getting "accidently hit" many times. Kept trying to get me, but I am to quick for him.


Couple little odds and ends...Cars has now moved up to the booster seat. You are supposed to be 30 pounds in order to make the move. My nephew has been in this kind of carseat for a year now. Well Carson just now graduated. Technically he is only 29 pounds, but his doctor said he was close enough. Very cool...right my boy.



And he sits!!! Don't look too close at that nose though, that was from an unfortunate topple this morning. Poor little guy, had a run-in with Lightning Mcqueen. No worries though, his falls are few and he is really quite sturdy now on his own. Good job, baby Bujao!

Proud to be an American!

Happy 4th everyone...what a great day! Any day that we get to celebrate our freedom and the good ol' United States of America is pretty much awesome. I love the feeling of united patriotism and looking around at all the red, white, and blue. Makes me proud to be an American. I know our country isn't perfect and we have our problems, but if you ask me when all is said and done it is a pretty great place to live. So may God continue to bless this great land and those that lead us and fight to protect us. Ok, enough said.


Oohh, cuteness. Me and my boys!


Had ourselves some surf n swim fun! I was pretty worried for a second there with those dark skies and scattered clouds. Rained on us for about 20 minutes is all, and then there came that beautiful sun. It was perfect weather, perfect amount of people. Tons of fun!







I've got some little fishies on my hands. My kids LOVE water, love it, love it. Both of them. Carson pretty much has no fear, I had to watch this kid like a hawk. He just takes off, doesn't care who he is with, how deep out he goes, whether he has a tube or not. Made me crazy. When it came time to go home, I had to pull him out kicking and screaming. Oh well, I am glad he is a healthy, active little boy who enjoys this kind of thing. As for Lincoln, he just sat there and pounded those chubby little fists in the water all afternoon. At one point Carson did a total flip in his tube and I had to run over to him. I jumped up fast and knocked Lincoln over. Lincoln topples down in the water, comes back up and doesn't even make a peep. Looks around for a second and goes back to playing. I tell ya, little fishies.








Tuckered out little kids, taking a small break why us moms got the lunch together.


Went home and both my kids took a 2 hour nap. Heaven!! After that we showered and got ready then headed over to the Layton fireworks. We spent the day and night with all of our Brazilian friends and family. They are all so much fun.


Pop-its!



Yummy face Lincoln, whats for dinner?



Carson gettin some love from the little ladies.





Like I said great day, one of our bests.

Hill Airforce Base Museum

Carson has been loving life these last few days. We have been up to all kinds of fun stuff. First of all last night we went over to our friends Jeff and Candace's for a barbeque and fireworks. Despite the rain, we still had a great time. Carson LOVES fireworks and had so much fun watching the little show we put on. No pictures cause my camera ran out of batteries while we were there. Very sad, I know. Anyways, thanks to Candace for hosting....hope the mess wasn't too bad for you. Next time we can come to our house.

Today was even better for my boy. Thiago's work got Friday the 3rd off and so Thiago planned a little outing for him and Carson. They dropped Lincoln off at Vovo's and headed to the Hill Airforce Base Museum. I mentioned Carson's love of airplanes and helicopters, well we decided that taking him to the museum was a must. I work on Fridays so it was just the two of them (which explains why Carson looks like an orphan in these pictures, dads just don't know how to get kids ready). Carson had the best time and absolutely did not want to leave. I was sad I missed out, but glad my 2 boys had so much fun together.

Happy Independence Day to you all, be safe and hope its a good one!!

Cuttin teeth..

WAHOO...what is that I see poking through sweet baby boy's gums. Is that a tooth, wait maybe even two. That's right friends, 2 teeth for my baby boy. It is about time, Carson had SIX teeth by the time he was 6 months old. I have been wondering when those pearly white's were going to make their appearance. Not the best picture I know, but you get the idea.


Let me just tell you, the word "teething" has taken on a whole new meaning for me with baby #2. I never even realized when Carson was teething, it seriously didn't seem to affect him. Lincoln, sooooo not the case. This kid fevers, gets diarhea, diaper rash and is incredibly fussy. Lets put it this way, he most certainly makes it known when he is getting a tooth. Just think 2 down, and a whole mouth to go. Fun for me..


Let me explain these next 2 pictures...this is the sweet way Lincoln used to give kisses....


And this is now, not really kisses, more like biting. Thats right, biting. For a mom that is still nursing this is not the most pleasant of things. I told him once he starts biting he is done. However, I guess I will cut him some slack cause I am not ready to give it up yet. Neither is he for that fact, so we will carry on and hope my battle wounds are minimum. All for the cause right, gotta give my boy the very best!
