Swimming!

Landis's friend Drake got a fun little swimming pool, so we got to go over and check it out. They had lots of fun!!

Wait... we're here to swim?

That water is so funny! (I don't know why he thought it was funny. I guess he was excited!)

Gotta give the water a good mixin' before we jump right in!

Come on, Drake! It's so awesome in here!!

The best part was jumping in, then climbing out and doing it all over again.

Not sure what the point of these mushrooms was, but they got played with at least.

Wow... it's getting pretty cold now.

Pbbbbbleeeeease get us oooooout! It'ssss frrrrrreeezing!!!

An after swimming snack was definitely in order. He likes to feed people... and animals now.

Oldies but Goodies!

These aren't the MOST recent pictures, but they ARE one's that I have yet to post, so I figured since I can't find the USB cord to load newer pictures onto the computer, I'll just catch up on the old ones.

About 2 1/2 weeks until Brandon gets to come home and we can get the show on the road... to Colorado :o) Getting pretty excited to start a new chapter in life. hopefully we will feel more at home in Colorado in many ways. If we can't be home home, then feeling more at home than we do here is better than nothing! We will miss our great friends we've made here... but even after 5 1/2 years... it's time to move out of the hotel.

He was definitely comfortable!!

Both looking vewy, vewy suspicious.

There's always room for JELL-O!!

Crazy about stirring!!

Oddly enough, he started throwing up right as the Jello was setting in the fridge. It's like he knew to get ready.

Finally using his robe that Miss Callie got him for his birthday! He really liked it!

He was feeling MUCH better after a bath.

This Tigger jumps and sings. This is how Landis learned to jump.

He likes to snack in his truck :o)

Sharing his snack with Gir.

You can see his blindness :o( but Landis is such a good sharer!!

Landis's Spring Pictures

Mr. Landis had some Spring Pictures done on April 2nd. He's just the cutest thing ever!!! I love this kid... he did really well as long as he had something to play with, which is why you will see a few props.

Brandon is due at his next base (Shriever AFB, Colorado Springs, CO) by July 10th. He has started his second training corse which he says is really fun because it's has a lot of simulator work. So he kind of gets to play a video game during class sometimes. He graduates June 8th. Yay!

So, lots going on with Landis right now. He is talking like CRAZY! He's saying more phrases like, "I want this" and "I want to go". He has really gotten into using the potty. I guess we have started that! might as well go full swing now that he's okay with it. I was putting him on the potty before his bath every night, since otherwise he would have just stood at the side of the tub and pee'd all over the floor. He's getting the hang of doing both deeds and is going at least one once a day. He is sleeping through the night, and pretty much not nursing anymore. There are a few days in between when he will ask now... almost done! He's really learning his animals and his the sounds they make. He has some crazy good manners too!! He covers his mouth when he coughs and sneezes, he says please and thank you (in sign language), kisses your boo-boos, and he tells you "jeshoo" when you sneeze :o) He's shaping up to be a really great kid. We are so proud of him!!

Well, here are the pictures of the cutie! They are cropped differently in the actually printed picture. I have prints, but left them in California the last time we went to visit Brandon. Hopefully I'll get those out before we move...

He wasn't very enthused at first about having his pictures done...

But then he started having fun!
