Gabe and Jack

So Gabe came over the other day and once we got the trains divided up (Jack thought that he needed to have both trains... in turn, Gabe thought that he needed to carry both trains...  we finally got it figured out that they could each carry a train - and if you'll notice, in every single picture, they each have a train!), we decided we'd go for a walk over to the park.

 They were both very excited about the ducks and the bridge and the dead grasshopper on the path and the flowers and the leaves and the dog poop on the path and the river ... I could go on and on.  It is so much fun to go for a walk with people this age.  They see everything.  In turn, I get to see it in a different way than I normally would at my age. :) 

 One question I have:  Have either of these boys ever been in front of a camera?  Who taught them these cheesey grins???

 Another fun thing about going for a walk to the park with people this size is that they still think that they are going to catch the squirrels!  The squirrels in our park are pretty bold.  If you have food, they will join you on your picnic blanket until you share - not kidding!  So, I can see why Gabe and Jack thought that they would be able to catch the furry-tailed rodents because at first, the squirrels walked toward the boys... seeking a snack!  Then the squealing commenced - the boys, not the squirrels... the squirrels ran!

Seriously -- could not get a regular smile out of either of them!  Stinkin' cute.
