What have I been up to lately??

Lots of baby holding. This is what my lap looks like multiple times a day and I am loving every minute of it! Usually Peter is awake though. That child is not allowed to take naps if we can help it...he wakes up and is in a HORRIBLE mood for anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. It is not worth it! I love my little boys!

Boys can be so sweet

Especially when they are SLEEPING! These boys really are rather sweet though. My girlfriend welcomed her 6th child into their family last week and we got to host a sleepover for her other kiddos. When I was checking on all the kids before I went to bed this is how I found the boys. They were practically laying on each other and I thought it was seriously cute!!

By the way I did provide them each with their own pillow, I guess I only needed to give them 1! :)

Tyler Colin

This sweet little baby boy has the GREATEST smiles ever! If he is going to smile
at you he gives you the biggest, widest grin. You can't help but smile back! :) (caught this picture at the tail end of a big ole grin)

My thought on flowers

I have ALWAYS told my hubby that flowers are a waste of money! Well, after this last little guy I was kinda thinking helloooo where are my flowers?? So, I kind of whined to my husband about not getting flowers from him and he said he figured since my friends Charlee and Mary had got me some beautiful flowers that I wouldn't have wanted him to waste money on them. Makes sense, right? Well, apparently my hormones didn't think so! My dear, sweet hubby surprised me with these beauties last week and I have enjoyed them. Every time I walk by them they make me smile. So, I guess what I am saying is I am singing a different tune now and am thinking that maybe flowers aren't such a waste of money! My poor husband, I guess I should update him when I change my opinions. Kind of hard on him if I am expecting him to be a mind reader. Love you Russell!!! :)

Peter...

I have definitely not done enough "crafty" stuff with Peter. The girls went out to play yesterday and Peter wanted to follow. I brought him back and was trying to avoid a fit when I remembered this kit for puppets that I had purchased oh like...OVER A YEAR AGO! Hello, time to use them! And here are the results of a 15 minute crafting session with one adorable 2 year old...This is a pic of his puppets hugging each other. He loved making them hug each other and also making them fly which consisted of him taking both his puppets and throwing them in the air.

I do have to say it took a lot of self control for me to not try and force him to put the eyes and stuff in the "correct" place! I guess I have control issues. But, I love the off kilter look his little cat and dog has!
