In AN INstant...

I was only gone a second...just to pottie...good thing I just went and did my business and not read a magazine or anything...Boden is on the loose...he's into EVERYTHING right now...always thinking about what he can get into next....it's a lot of work, never get anything done ...but it's so fun watching him develop new skills and learn new words...I'm savoring every minute I can...

Brandt's new Girlfriend...

Well, she might be a little to old for him, but I've heard she's a really sweet girl....

Oh no, not again....

Perfect time for a little snoozer...makes time out time go REALLY fast....

George...

Barrett's Preschool does many cute things. This is one of them. Curious George comes with his suitcase which contains many changes of clothing and undies too...(that is just SO funny to a 4 yr old!)...but we were lucky enough to have George the entire Christmas break. He is suppose to go EVERYWHERE with you, your parents take pictures of you and George and then you turn in a scrapbook page of George's adventures. I must say George had a fantastic Christmas with us this year...and Barrett is already on me to do his scrapbook...gee...just add it on to the project pile...but it will be fun...and good Barrett and Mommy time...

Aprons....

I thought I'd share this cute idea I came up with..These are actually the CUTE vintage style aprons that I gave away for prizes at my Holiday cookie party this year.. After realizing that they were the same size as my laundry room windows and the same colors (gold and brown), I lucked out that they only had 4 left to buy!!. I tied the aprons together (back to back)...There is one on the backside so it looks just as pretty from the outside. After tying them together, I put the bow on the front side which makes it even cuter!!! I don't think Lenny our lizard likes them as they block some of his sunning rays, but it looks so girly and colorful in the laundry room, I love it!!!..and I'M the one that does the laundry...so sorry, Lenny....

GrandPA...

Grandpa Russell loves the sunshine.. and on his way to Florida every Winter, he always stops for a visit. The boys just love it...Grandpa Russell, is the tickling, let's play airplane kind of Grandpa...and of course they ALL have to pile on Grandpa at once...it's much more fun that way...It use to be myself and my siblings while growing up...The "dog pile" is what we'd call it!!...I guess some things never change...

The Christmas present that never came....

His eye teeth...he's got the ones in front...the ones in the back...but the ones in the middle are missin'...We thought that they'd come in around Christmas...but nope, just a lot of sleepless nights as they try to pop threw, lot's of grumpy days and fevers...they are takin' their own sweet time...lots of drool, lots of whimpers, but no teeth, not yet...Maybe for Valentines day????? We hope...
