Terrible Twos??...yeah, sometimes

Zane's 2nd Birthday!! We had it at the park, and everyone showed up! It's hard to believe he is already 2. He is getting so big, and so smart. Its amazing how one day I'm the only one who understands him, and the next day he's asking for apple juice and 'apple juice' is perfectly pronunciated. So here are some fairly recent pictures of my little man. This is the fam with Eric's sister Amber.
Zane eating his funfetti cake!

Opening presents. A few of the presents scared him and he refused to take them out of the bag. These were maily the roaring, spitting, moving dinosaurs...

It was a beautiful day for the park, not to sunny with a little breeze.
So, Zane started swim classes and is the star of his class. He loves the water!! He was also taking a little gymnastic class, where he got to run around on mats and jump on tramplines with other 2 year olds. I am hoping to get him into a little sports class soon. Basically he's still just a laid back happy kid, with more energy then mommy now so she puts him in classes to wear him out before nap time. hehe.
As for Eric and I, thankfully we are doing well. Life keeps us busy as usual. My brother Colin got married recently, my great-grandmother died a couple weeks ago, my mom goes up and down the mountain every other weekend, family is starting to come and go with spring break and summer coming up, and Zane is growing like a weed! Hopefully I will remember to post aging soon with picture from swim class (he looks so cute in goggles). Hope all is well with everyone who gets this.

Toddler bed and Home made roller coaster...

Zane is now in a toddler bed! We went and got him some new 'melmo' bedding and he loves it!

However, when he goes down for a nap, he has yet to sleep IN his bed.
He prefers to fall asleep UNDER it for some reason. Any suggestions?

This would be Zane's homemade roller coaster. He puts his push car up on top, gets on, and rides down. This has become a favorite activity of his.
So far he has not been hurt for all of you worry-warts.
Although he did attempt to ride his giant bouncy ball down the slide.
The attempt was thwarted by superdad, who caught him mid-air.

Yes, that is a mowhawk, and yes it has already been shaved off.
It will be back one day.

Other than Zane's Evil Knevil attempts things are pretty much back to normal around here.
I guess that is a good thing. We are back to working Mon - Fri. Woo Hoo!
This year Eric plans to make it to almost every disc golf tournament in the 'az cactus league' so you can expect some more park pictures this year.
Hopefully he becomes pro like he is planning for.

And for those of you who know, we have moved almost all the boxes over from grandmas!
That is something to be proud of for us. :)
