**Happy Days With Drew & Will**

Gary's new toy - whoops, I mean lawn tractor.

Mother's Day Hike on Beech Hill in Rockport.
Hi everyone, we've been busy the past month doing lots of things.
With the weather getting so nice we have been spending a lot of time outside!
Drew: Drew has been busy riding his bike, playing tee ball, trading Pokemon cards and playing outside with his little friends. Drew loves to entertain Will and make him laugh and he has started calling Will "Willie" - hmmmm, we'll see what happens with that:) Drew has a concert this week for arts and music. Speaking of art, he is quite the little artist. He draws everyday and can probably draw better than I can, he loves to draw animals. Drew is also reading and writing a lot and reads to us every night before bed. It is hard to believe he only has a few weeks left of Kindergarten and than he will be a first grader!

Will: Will has changed a lot over the past month. WOW! He talks a lot of baby jargon, if we only knew what he was saying. He crawls and is into everything, he pulls himself up to stand, has 4 teeth and has started eating more solid food. He does not like the baby food as much and seems to be preferring to feed himself things like cheerios, real banana, bread, crackers, and yogurt. Will loves the bath, books, dancing and playing with his toys and of course Drew is still his favorite person! He still is not sleeping thru the night, but last night we started the Ferber method again, going strictly by it...it seemed to work and I suspect Will will be sleeping much better by the end of this week!!! Maybe thru the night even!



First Bathtime in the big tub!

First Cheerios.

First time on a trampoline - loved it!
First time in the baby swing outside - loved that also!

Also, we have some exciting news! Drew & Will have a new little baby boy cousin named Wesley!!! Welcome to the World Baby Wesley!!! Enjoy the pictures & take care, Love Shasta, Gary, Drew & Will
OK, now what do I do with this thing?

Alright, there we go! :)
