What a Life at Nana's

Pushing the wagon is hard work
Andrew come help me get it in the house
Andrew worked a played so hard I am helping Gramma wake him up.

Nap time doesn't come soon enough sometimes.

Boys STARTING a History

While Mommy and Daddy are away VIEWING History, we are at Nana and Papa's Starting a new History with Papa. He is lots of fun. Here I, Nathan, am taking a Nap with Papa.

"Papa, you can't catch me."

"OH, look who I caught."

Roma

Before I can begin telling you all about the trip. I have to show you the latest pictures of the boys. We woke them up a little early to say goodbye.


Look at those sleepy faces wondering why Mommy pulled them out of bed.




OK, now that we have that out of the way here are some of our Roma pictures. Friday we took a tour of the Colosseum and the Ruins on Palatine Hill.

Here is the Colosseum. It looks sunny but we were freezing, especially our guide Lorenzo.

Roman Forum
Playing in the fountain in front of the Spanish Steps.

Us on the Spanish steps, even in off season they are crowded with people, and yet everyone seems to agree they are just steps.


On Sat. I was able to fulfill on of my life goals. To see the Sistine Chapel. We had some difficulty finding the place, missed our tour, but managed to get onto the next one. It was a lot of fun. Amazing! I didn't take many pictures since there were always random people in every shot. So I bought a book instead. Our guide was a little weird at times, but I enjoyed hearing all the history and stories behind the paintings, sculptures, tapestries, and mosaics.


Us at Vatican City infront of the St. Peters Cathedral. Which was also beautiful.

And lastly a random shot.


So far our trip has been a lot of fun even with our mishaps. Our biggest piece of luggage was MIA for a day, but has since been delivered. We missed our tour. And today, the ATM ate Brad's credit card. Despite that we are having fun and are looking forward to moving to Florance tomorrow.

Life is hard at Nana's house

Nana is taking a shower and I don't want her to.
I love to squeeze into tight places.
Somebody please move this so I can get through.

Valentines Day

The boys tried finger paints for the first time on Valentines Day.

Nathan had fun...



Andrew is not a big fan of sticky things on his fingers so he didn't like it.


Protest "I refuse to participate."


Messy Fun!

Mommy's New Favorite Picture

We are officially boys....

We learned how to wrestle.
We start by laughing and playing in mommy's curtains and end up rolling over each other on the floor.





Taking a break to catch our breath.

Lunch Time

These two are just so much fun. The laughs never stop. Today Nathan finished his lunch and decided to push brother around on a ride.

Vrooom Vroom!!!

Weeeeeeee!!!
That's hard work Brother, you need a snack. (Andrew is giving Nathan a cheerio)

Nathan stopped long enough to grab a snack, then kept pushing.

I can't wait till they start talking to each other. I can only imagine how funny it is going to be.

Second Fight

I got into a fight with the corner...


I lost.
War wounds are awesome!

I think it is still getting bigger.

Goose eggs don't get me down, I still sing in the tub.

MINE

This is what happens when Mommy takes my paci away.


Look, real tears. Am I good or what?

One morning I woke up and....

My hair had grown a mind of its own.

What is up with my hair?

I had a Mohawk all day.

circus camp

I am not exactly sure what I am going for in this costume. However, I did dress us and that is all that matters.
Thanls Nana for making the boys clown costumes. They turned out perfect.

Nathan walked up on stage and had a blast investigate back stage.

They were not quite sure of what to think of the mimes and ran to Nana for protection.
It's exhausting being a clown.
Getting into the peanuts Daddy was selling.
My senior Girls
As soon as they heard the theme was Circus this year they decided to dress as Brittney Spears. For those of you who are like me and fail to make the connection between the two, her latest album is called Circus. They dressed up as the various stages of her life, Brittney the early years, Brittney pregnant, Brittney smoking with a baby, and in the front is her man, Keven Federline. The last girl did not dress up, but some how seems to still fit the theme.
