On a Boat
And they went on a jet ski ride.
And MomKat chilled with a cocktail in shallow water.
Here is Oscar and his best friend/twin Jackson.
This was a common occurance the whole day...the boys fighting over toys.
Of course we brought Hendrix!
And we ventured to Wauconda Fest. Here is the family, minus Hendrix on the ferris wheel.
The boys on the tilt-a-elephants.

KAT Klan does Dallas
Here are the boys on the plane to Bentonville, Arkansas! Home of the Walmart! We unfortunately got stuck there for a night without our luggage, and it was very humbling for me. I got to appreciate the finer things in life, like no conditioner, wearing and sleeping the same clothes for 2 days, no Tivo, and living with the fear of catching scabies.
Here are the boys playing in the "Sleep Inn" bed.
I am so creeped out about how many germs they got rolling around in it.
And Oscar kept amused in the Northwest Arkansas Airport (that is the real name & it had only 3 gates) for hours going up and down the escalator.
We finally got to Dallas and got meet Nicholas Burton!
DadKat throwing Oscar up in the pool.

Extreme Home Makeover.
Here is the boys tree house/playset. Of course we paid someone to stain the whole thing, but I demanded that we put a magnetic chalkboard paint on the inside walls of the house. This means...2 coats of black magnetic paint, and 3 coats of chalkboard paint. Why are we doing this ourselves?!?!?!
Yeah, we had a visitor while we were painting...he even went down the slide 3 times! Who said 6 year old bulldogs were lazy? I also want to brag that I did about 85% of the painting, but no one seemed to capture those photos.....

Foie Gras
Yesterday the boyz ventured to Glamma's house and checked out her pond and water fountain, but nothing was up and running due to some duck laying her eggs in the spout of the fountain. Hendrix wasn't too happy about this so he yelled at the ducks and told them to move their eggs so he can see the water and hear it while he slept.
You can kinda see in the background of this pic of the duck proudly chillin ON TOP of the fountain.

School's out for Summer!
Here is Oscar at his end of the year party at his school.
And Hendrix got teeth a couple weeks ago, forgot to mention because we were zombies while he was driving us crazy. But, how can you get mad at this face!?!?!

Hola!!!

Here is Oscar pondering if he was going to have to run the household if we sold everything and never came home.
And Hendrix clueless.
Here we are in Mexico....only one pic to refrain you all from jealousy.

Parties & Playdates
Here is Dad & Oscar playing with some agua.
And Oscar in the wind tunnel, he is not the total nerd with the goggles on.
And this a very unique picture, not because he has 3 more chins hidden under his sweater-he is sleeping during the day time!
A very rare experience for Hendrix.
And today we had an Oscar-free playdate. Not on purpose, he was in school-so I escaped to Chicago to meet up with Charlie.
Ah, our good old Chicago Charlie.

Stripes
Here is a picture of the boys in their stripes.
Also, we would love to announce the newest member to the distant KAT Klan. Mr. Nicholas Burton KAT. He was born at 12:01am on Wednesday, January 21st and weighed 8lbs and 11oz. He put his Mom through a 24 hour labor, but Aunt Kate & Uncle Corey are so happy. We are planning a trip to Dallas, Texas to see him soon!

Sad Attempt
We got our foundation built!
Ok, here is Mom's side of the house. We got a "K" in the roof and banana shingles.
And here is Oscar's "sucked" on Runt. He tried to place is strategically all over the house, but it is now landscaping.
Finally, Oscar's side of the house. Look at all the candy everywhere!!! Maybe we will finish this thing, but it maybe be bird food soon.

Finally, a reason to have 2 kids.
Ah, Oscar is officially trained to take care of Hendrix.
I also wanted to post Oscar & Andy's gingerbread man they made at an event in downtown Hinsdale.
Please notice.
1. Andy's gum on the side of the plate.
2. The gingerbread man is missing a leg, because Andy took a bite then remembered I told him to take pictures!

BLOG UPDATE!
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to let you know that my baby brother will be entering the world Monday, November 10th. At that time, my blog will turn into OUR blog. Believe me, this isn't what I wanted, but my fans have spoken and I guess you are all lazy butts and don't want to remove my web address from your favorites. Soooo, we are gonna add the "new kid" to my blog, but change the title. So, keep checking Monday for updates and pictures of my baby brother! I will try to post one final entry before D-Day.
xoxo-

Suburban Saturday
Yesterday I had my fill of activities. First thing, we hand washed the cars.
Next, we washed Mom's car. PJs off and I really like to concentrate on the tires.
In the afternoon, Mom & I headed to my friend Anna's house.
I showed off my skills...jealous?
I tried to teach Anna how to do it but,
she convinced me a snack of pretzels suited her best. Agreed.

Wet Retreat!
Here I am on the train. I think I went for about 25 rides, and moved to a different seat every time.
There is my little head popping out in the back.
And Mom joined me for a ride, but no time for pictures....I got a train to catch!

Back from the Woods
I watched Shrek 3 times a day, like the good ol' days....
Here is a family shot on the pier.

Mom & I had a fishing adventure too.

My Dad got to go wakeboarding, it was pretty sweet.
And I got to go for boat rides, really fast.
(I think they kinda forgot that there was a 2 year old sitting up front.)

Cubs Outings
Then, yesterday Mom & Dad headed up to Wrigley North (Milwaukee's Miller Park) to see the Cubs KILL the Brewers.
I would have to say the best part, that other than the game, was that they got to meet the Sausage Race guys.
Here is Mom with Chorizo & Dad with Bratwurst, Italian Sausage and Hot Dog. Awesome.

Rib Fest
And then Dad took me to get some beer.
Then Mom & Dad took me to the petting zoo. I saw goats, lambs, sheep, pot belly pigs, donkeys, ducks and chickens.
And last, but not least-there cannot be a festival without music. Here I am doing my hippy dance to either Ted Nuggent or Big Head Todd & the Monsters. Yeah, I rocked out and got to stay up to 10pm!

I will actually be 2 years old, 2 months from today....yeah, 22 months old. Geez, those months creep up on you. Here is my new stair shot.
I am off to enjoy my backyard full of GRASS! I am still getting use to that, birds, bunnies, squirrels and the most famous creature out here, the "suburbanite."
