The week that started the long drought, Abuelo decided we needed to work on the lawn. Using the bobcat, dumptruck, and topsoil, he leveled off most of the holes and the rest of us planted grass seed. However, without rain, we have a great hay pit :)

Brothers
An early picture of the brothers. The first 2 weeks were rough with adjustments... but we are slowly getting there :)

1 week down...
The past week has definitely been an adventure...
For instance...
during a visit from my cousins at the hospital, Alex continuously said "watch me" and preceded to fall on the floor.
Alex told our neighbor "My baby brother, Connor, came out of my Mommy's butt".
EVERY time Connor cries, Alex believes that I need to feed him. So he will tell me to "Milk Connor".
When my parents arrived on Father's Day, Alex went back to get sleeping Connor. Alex climbed up on the crib, reached down, picked up Connor, and brought Connor down the hall for my Mom to hold. Normally, you have to lower the crib bed to keep the baby from crawling out of the crib... not lower it to keep big brothers from climbing in...
Boys are known for spraying people during diaper changes. So far the score is Mommy 0, Daddy 1, and Connor 3.
Every 10 minutes, Alex feels the need to "check on" Connor. Sleeping or not sleeping, Connor receives a visitor and normally a few kisses from his big brother.

35th Birthday
For Pat's 35th birthday, Abuelos got Alex and Pat a rescue fire helicopter. Needless to say, Pat does not get to play with it much.
The End of TBall
T-Ball has come to an end. The last game was not very exciting but the kids LOVED their medals and trophies :) Now, everyday, Alex wants to go to practice and games.
Swingset
Over Memorial Day weekend, Pat, Abuelo, Uncle Steve & Josh were able to get the Carbaugh's swingset. It took a lot of back work, muscle, and time...but.. Alex LOVES it :)
He has his swings, a slide, a wheel, and a newly added spotting scope.
