Virginia

We took our first family vacation up to visit Dave's family in Virginia.
My camera ate some of my pictures though so we'll ubruptly start in the middle at the transportation museum.
Stephen's new favorite place.

Jaxy liked it too...

Guess who's excersausering?!!

It's Jaxy!
He loves it! I can't believe my little guy is already big enough for this!

He loves excersausering outside too!

Stephen helps whenever he can

Such a happy guy!

The pool

Stephen loves his pool!!
Check out the cool shirt aunt Suzy made him!

Nice bedhead kid!

I have a feeling we're going to be spending a lot of time "pool side" this summer!

The water table

So someone told me that these water tables are hours of fun.
They were right, Stephen loves it and will play forever with it.
I'm not sure why he has to be naked, but he does.
