D's New Fad

So, Drew's new thing is sunglasses. He wants to wear them all the time. In fact, as I type this he is sleeping soundly in his bed with a pair of sunglasses on his face!! :)

Anyway, the other night we were at Andy's volleyball game, and we had forgotten Drew's glasses. So, naturally, I lent him mine. This is how he wore them almost the entire night! What a funny kid!






"What's so funny, mom??"


I love my boys! :)

Cute, funny kids :)

My Life

I was talking with my mom earlier today, and somehow the blog came up. I was telling her how I've been in a blogging rut lately.

"I just don't have any 'big events' to blog about....", I said, "I feel like every post I do is about my kids."

"Yes", said my wise mother :), "But, your kids are your life, and isn't that what your blog is all about anyway?"

So true, mom, so true. My family is my life, and I'm so grateful for them each and every day!!!

So, here you have it-- yet another post about my kids :)

My sweet little baby just cut his first tooth! He also loves to smile for the camera And, here's his "happy noise"-- it makes me laugh whenever he does it :)


With all the nice weather we've been spending a lot more time outdoors. Last week sometime, Drew was having the time of his life with a frisbee. He got himself laughing so hard throwing that thing around... I had fun catching it all on camera :) On Saturday Andy and I turned the music up loud to just dance around/get a little exercise in. Drew will normally just 'rock' in his chair. But, this particular day he chose to get up and dance with us! So cute, so funny! Too bad I didn't think to get the camera out until he was running low on gas :)

Last Friday, I realized I have a little animal!
A turtle,

A kangaroo,

Always a monkey,

But, at the end of the day, I guess they're all just boys after all :)


And what did Drew think of his trip to the zoo? Here's what he had to say:
"Mommy, I wanna go the blue zoo with NO animals on it!"

Looks like we need to go over just what a zoo is :)

I heard Grant Say....

I'm 6 months old today! I know my family loves me more every day because they just never stop squeezing me! Here are some things I like to do:

1. Sit outside in the 'beginning to be warm' weather :) See mom's daffodils in the background? I guess spring really is coming!


2. Show off my stylin' natural mohawk to my friends.


3. Stick my tongue out when I smile :)


4. Listen to Drew tell me secrets about my mom


5. Sleep!!


Life is good at Six Months Old!!

A Visit from Grandpa "Pwayson"

My dad was able to come to see us on his way to do some business in the midwest. We're so glad he came to spend the weekend with us!! Drew was his little shadow the entire time, and misses him very much already.

Thanks to him for helping a ton with things in the basement and the love and playtime he gave to the boys!!! We love Grandpa!!!

With both of our families living far away, we're always glad to see them! And, we love visitors of every shape and form---- who's next?!? :)

We Love FREE Stuff!

We always love when we get something for free.... even if it is T.P.!!!!



We were excited (we're such dorks :) to find that we had been T.P.'d this morning! So funny! The first words out of Andy's mouth were, "Man, I feel bad because we don't have any big trees or anything for the kids to T.P.!" Isn't that funny?

We loved it, though!
