Batboys!

Pat, the boys, and I went to a circus in Brownwood.  They got their faces painted like Batman.  They had a great time!

I Think I Can Be Good That Long

Church can be quite the challenge for me sometimes with all the boys.  And when I say all the boys, I really mean Ayden.  He just has a real hard time sitting still and quiet for that length of time.  Sutton stays in the nursery.  Blake and Cordell are fine, but Ayden, well Ayden gets real BUSY!!  He does not have a whisper voice.  The only volume he has is always on and loud! 

Well today at church, during the offering, Ayden was "reading" the bulletin.  He was asking me to show him what we had already done.  Then he would mark it off with his pencil.  He discovered that there were only 2 more items listed in the bulletin - sermon and closing song.  He looked up at me with those little mischevious, twinkly eyes and blurted out whispered, "Momma, are there only 2 more things to go?"  I told him yes.  Then he said, "I think I can be good that long!"  :)

A Game of Pool With Some Furry Friends

Ok, here are some pictures of 2 goofy boys and their favorite little furry friends!  They are pictures that were not carefully planned.  The boys need haircuts.  There is a crazy sparkle in Ayden's eye.  (I'm sure that is the mischief coming out!)   His mouth looks like he has been eating some unknown cheesey snack.  This is the norm.  These are the pictures I get all the time.  I decided to go with them just the way they are, no editing.  So here it goes...2 boys and their buddies Pip and Squeaks playing pool.

I think Squeaks is telling Ayden the plan.

And he does not want him to tell that secret plan.

Taking the shot

Wonder who won this game?

Sutton - 15 months

At 15 months, you are...

loving, sweet, stubborn, and head strong.

You can climb like nobody’s business.

You give the sloppiest kisses, and we all fight over them.

You like to watch Barney in the car.

When you play peek a boo, you cover your ears.

You like to say, "Ayden," much to Cordell's dismay.

You have five little teeth now - 2 on the bottom & 3 up top.

You are such a blessing to us all!

My baby loves BOOKS!



Four Snow Days!

Well, we stayed home from school this week for FOUR days.  Tuesday through Friday.  It was just so icy and cold!  I can not remember a time in my life that we have ever missed more than one or two days of school.  This has just been crazy!  It was a week full of sledding (on trashcan lids pulled by Blake), hot chocolate, snuggly winter clothes, wearing pj's all day, playing together, and a lot of family time.  At times, it made us all a little bit crazy!  However, it was also a great time spent together.  I will admit though, we were so excited to get out again on Friday evening.

Ayden is Comfortable!!

Ayden is singing what I think is the song, "thank God I'm a country boy.". However, when I started to sing with him, he corrected me. "No Mom, it's Thank God I'm comfortable.". Go ahead sing it. It fits the tune. That kid makes me laugh!!

Snow Day on Blake's Birthday!!

 

A warm breakfast of pancakes, cheesy eggs, and bacon to start off the day...
                  yum!

Snow Day Fun

Yesterday it was 65 degrees.  Today 19 degrees with a wind chill of -8.  Coldest I can remember in a long time!

Feels good!

Snow angels!

Sutton had to have his picture in the snow too. 

I had Blake take him out for just a second.

Warming Up!

 Just in case you were wondering what Sutton was doing during all of this fun...

silly monkey was climbing completely into the coffee table.

Fun!  Fun!  Fun!

Sunny Outdoor Fun
