Wordless Wednesday ;

Oh how I LOVE these boys............



Halloween 2011

I'd say this year was almost perfect; Lance had to work & couldn't be home with us so it wasn't 100% perfect but it was close.  B still wouldn't actually go up to the houses but he happily wore his costume & walked around the neighborhood so he did very well & Colton was a trooper.  He didn't seem to mind the big ol' dog costume that I made him wear & just watched everything going on around him.

B started out his neighborhood tour on his tricycle; he happily climbed on & off we went to see the trick or treaters. 


We tried to bribe him with a Kit Kat to walk up to a house or 2 but he wanted no part of it so I didn't force the issue.........he did get the Kit Kat though.  
 

We tried for a photo of the boys together & this is what we got because after about 5 seconds...... 

this happened..........oh well there is always next year. 
 

B then decided that he wanted to take the wagon out for a spin (it'll be great when they can both ride in it next year) & we toured some more of the neighborhood.  Sadly the kids didn't get started until a bit late so we only got to see half of the costumes. 


We ended the night just hanging at the house handing out candy; B was in awe of the kids that were coming up to the house.  He would follow them in & out of the door way each & every time. 


He was the cutest pirate I have ever seen & we had a wonderful time!  We hope that y'all had as much fun as we did too!!!

where are you????

Can you see B in this picture??  I know that you can pretty easily but he is still buried under all of the stuffed animals asleep.  He has started to put all of the stuffed animals that are in his room on the floor (well almost all of them) in his bed with him at night & then proceed to fall asleep with them all; I of course go in & take them out & cover him up but geez kiddo how many "friends" do you need in there spending the night??

& then there's baby C snoozing; so precious & peaceful.

Potty Training


It's going better than I thought it would when we first started & although B is still not using it very often he sits there every 2 hours & is using it more & more as the days go by.  He actually likes to sit down & pee out of the potty if you must know.  Even though it is quite annoying to watch him pull his pee pee out of the potty on purpose & do this I guess we are just one step closer to him doing it in the potty............RIGHT??

Corn Dawgs

We took the boys to Corn Dawgs & it was a completely different experience than it was last year for sure.  B was old enough to play things & boy did he........it was colder & very windy this year so we couldn't stay as long nor walk around & see everything like last year so I was a bit bummed but B & C had a blast & that is all that matters right??


He is a bit obsessed with rock..........not sure why





This is where we spent the majority of our time





& Colton watched his big brother very intently; he also borrowed his hat until I got back from the car with his......

Cute right??




Brayden realized that the jumping tube had sand all around it & quickly got off to inspect it for a while


Once he was tired of jumping we just let him lead up to the next destination

& of course he went to the car...... "nud, nuds" are one of his favorite things to play in & he loves to pretend to drive them too



We ended the day in the zip line swing & it was laughs & belly giggles the whole time.


It was such a fun day & I can't wait to go again next year; Colton will be old enough to enjoy it too & it will be neat to see both my boys running around & playing.

Here's the family last year.......
