A Painter, A Beach Baby, and My Silly Boys

I think I've mentioned this before, but these summer days are just flying by! So here are a few recent highlights:

Seems like we rarely do indoor activities, but one day Jonas wanted to paint...clearly, he is into abstract art...and face painting...

So, at some point in my not-always-so-logical state of mommyhood, I purchased Miles this oh-so-cute swimsuit. Of course, we don't take him to the beach...or even to the pool...due my my paranoia of sunburn. And there must be a reason all of the sunscreens (even the "baby" ones) say not to apply until the baby is 6 months old (on August 29th he must magically become immune to toxic sunblock?)! So when Jonas is at the pool, Miles is carefully shaded and has absolutely no need for a swimsuit! But last week on a rainy day I realized that Miles is quickly growing OUT of his clothes, so I dressed him in this beach apparel anyway. Of course, I made him model it!

The best part is the profile... :)

Here is Miles during his typical dinnertime activity. Although he still relies on Mommy for all of his food, he likes to join us at the table for meals. Here it looks like he is enjoying this toy...but his favorite thing is just leaning over and gnawing on the edge of the highchair tray.

The boys (and Dixie) hanging out!

And finally, another video of my wild and crazy boys. This is one evening after bathtime. Jonas was dancing around his room like a maniac (naked, as usual, although I made this video PG) and Miles was laughing hysterically at him! I tried to catch some of the cute baby giggles on video, but as you will see, Jonas was not so impressed and wanted all eyes on himself!
