15th Annual Bubalo Golf Tournament Weekend!

One of our favorite times of the year:  The Bubalo Golf Tournament!  Lots of family, lots of babies, golfing, and matching T-shirts.  What more could you ask for? 
Stephen's cousin Matt, his wife, Laura and their baby boy, Owen stayed with us over the weekend.  The boys are about two weeks apart, so it was so fun to see them running around and "playing" together.  I look forward to seeing them interact each year as they grow older.

We had a great kick off to the weekend at Grandma and Grandpa Bubalo's house!  Here's all the boys with all their babies. :)

The morning after the tournament, we stopped by great grandma Bubalo's for lunch, then drove downtown to Loose Park.  It was the first time we had been there.  So much fun!  We walked along the path and stopped by the "sprayground" to play.  As always with spraying water, Isaac was very nervous at first.  He warmed up a little, but did not let us step too far away.  And yes, the boys did have matching suits thanks to some hand-me-downs I received.  How cute are they?!

Water, Water Everywhere!

Isaac has always been a fan of water.  He loved the first bath he got in the hospital and he now he comes scampering to the bathroom when he hears his bath water running.  He's a water boy, or so I thought.  He has a love for water in all forms except for when it's in fountain form.  As the summer has gotten hotter, we have indulged in more and more water play, both inside and out.  Wyatt, the little boy I watch during the week, is also a big fan of water, so it has worked out perfect.
I first discovered Isaacs fear of spraying water when I bought a hose and brought it out for the first time to water the flowers.  He literally ran as fast as he could down the driveway and away from the water!  We've tried the new sprinkler that he got for his birthday...he panicked with that as well.  If he was being held he would stick a finger in, but quickly be ready to back off.  He's a silly boy. We've continued to give him opportunities to play in spraying water and he seems to very slowly be warming up.  It will be interesting to see what next year will bring.

About as close as he got on his own.


Not so sure about that water...

Wyatt loved it!


We got the pool out, water toys and paint brushes!




Found a bug!  And he loved to watch it crawl on his arm!



Found another bug on the pool!




Giddy up Jackson!  
Actually, he did giddy up.  A little too quick for Isaac.  Pulled him right to the ground. Oops! :/

Practicing some screaming.




 Playing with water, flour and kitchen utensils.  He loves using just about any utensil I give him, especially when I'm cooking and using some of them myself.  We had explored flour quite a few times before I added some water to it.  He loved it!


Always have to give everything a taste :)
