Weekend at Nana and Papa's

Andrew and Ethan spent the night at Nana's and Papa's so that David and I could go to the Primerica meeting in Atlanta on Friday. We enjoyed the time away and had a good time in Atlanta especially our visit to Ikea. We bought some chairs for the living room and then a short while later found matching kids chairs.
Andrew and Ethan spent time playing with bubbles and even made cymbals out of metal coasters from Great Grandma McCoy.

Sky Fort Contruction

The boys received a great birthday present from Grandma and Grandpa. The Sky Fort playhouse started as a bunch of odd shaped wood pieces and a box of bolts and screws. David completed it in three weeks with help at the beginning and end. Andrew's favorite part is the slide and crow's nest and Ethan prefers to swing.

Summer has begun

Summer heat has begun and we are spending more time outside. The boys are excited whenever they see their swim suits out. They will either play in the sprinkler or splash in a swimming pool.

We've attended a few play dates with the Mothers of Multiples Club with the highlighting being the Day at the Farm. The boys enjoyed a cookout, riding the cow train, swinging, sliding, and testing out big kids toys like bicycles, wagons, and a gator. Though the cows were not nearby, we did see a large garden, a barn, and two huge tractors. Between 8-10 families attended so that made for a lot of children. There were 2 sets of triplets and the rest had twins.

2nd Birthday Party


Andrew and Ethan Walters turned 2 years old on May 21, 2009. They celebrated their birth day on Friday evening with a party at the Crawford dock on Lake Chickamauga. We enjoyed the company of some family and our friends the Whitmills. The boys are beginning to feed themselves more often and in the second picture, Andrew is stealing a pickle from Ethan's plate.


After supper the kids enjoyed splashing in the small swimming pool and then taking turns riding a waverunner with their parents. Though the waverunner was fun the boys preferred to splash in the pool. It was hard to get them to come out of the pool to open presents.

The party had a minor theme of Little Einsteins, a TV sho
w that focuses on music and team work. Many of the presents where Little Einstein related including a 3 DVD box set which their mama appreciated just as much or more than the boys.
Thank you to all who helped us celebrate. A special thank you to Lezlee who taught the boys the answer to "how old are you?" "I'm two!" while holding up one finger.
