Saturdays/Memorial Day/Bachlorette/Nuge/Sandbox

So on Saturdays, Brian and I buy a little extra time in bed by letting AJ in with us. On this day, he decided he wanted read to first thing. Lately though, he's decided that all of his cars and trucks need to be covered up in bed as well. AJ enjoying being pushed on the big boy swing by cousin Emma Memorial Day weekend. AJ is really good about holding on, and even loves to lean his head back just like we did as kids - scared me to death the first time he did this.
Having more fun with cousin Tommy who entertained AJ with the marble maze/tower.
We also celebrated mom's 60th birthday.
When I showed AJ this picture on the camera one day and asked him who was in it (thinking he'd say mamaw) he enthusiastically said, "CAKE." The boy likes cake!
We officially have a "kids" table now. AJ and Heidi took full advantage of it (so did Nuge)!

Change of topic... Another PINK gets married! Congratulations Jessie!!!! Loved the night out! Headed out for a night on the town! Every mom needs a chance to get away once in awhile!
So Nuge has always had his fair share of skin issues. In fact, our vet is actually into dermatology, so is always very into checking Nuge out whenever he gets a funky spot (which I'm pretty sure cost us more than necessary - my favorite is when she tells us that she's going to check for ringworm but is pretty sure it isn't that because otherwise she would be wearing gloves - that's a $50 test). Well, once again Nuge has an irrated spot under his neck that he has scratched raw and won't leave alone so it continues to bleed instead of heal. This time though, I played vet myself (to save on cost). I taped a piece of gauze loaded with neosporin to the ace bandage and wrapped up his neck to keep him from scratching. So far, so good!
Grandpa Joe built AJ a sandbox to have at their house as he LOVES playing in sand. Thanks Dad/Grandpa!
AJ somehow mixed some water (might have been the pop he dumped in the sandbox) with some of the dirt around the sandbox and spread it on his face to make it look like he had war paint on (imagine a boy with dirt on his face)! So much fun!
