Short Hats

Who says shorts have to be worn at the waist?




The boys laughing at/with each other.


This is the first shot of the boys together in MONTHS. Are you starting to see why?

Music with Daddy

The boys love getting to go into Daddy's office. Mommy never lets them go in unless Daddy is home and says it is OK. Daddy usually takes down his guitars and let's the boys play. Today he had a special surprise in mind. They got a chance to wear Daddy's huge headphones and dance to the music. Nathan was in heaven. Andrew was not sure about having that strange thing on his head. Once again Daddy's office was tons of fun.


Nathan dancing. He has a good sense of beat.


I want it off!!!


This kid loves his music.


I just love this face!

Tackling Daddy


Got stuck in his baby Bumbo seat.


Nathan strategically moved the stool so he can reach the light switch.


Low rise diapers. Who has time for a diaper change?


We insist in climbing into corners we can't get out of.

OK, here are my excuses for why I have not blogged recently.

1. The boys are moving around so much we don't really get any good pictures. Our days are spent climbing on EVERYTHING and Jumping from one thing to another. Nathan is now able to pull things off the counters so I am constantly picking up messes. Today I turned off the shower and thought "oh no it has been quiet for way to long". Both boys were sitting on the floor surrounded by my makeup, hair products, and so much more. I keep everything I use in a cady which Nathan pulled off the counter. I now have two less eye shadows, and then in turn have two empty cases to play with. Not an hour later Nathan pulled a full bag of rice cakes off the counter. (The Same thing happened yesterday). Since I was in the middle of cooking I gave up and let the two boys eat up the mess.

2. My second excuse is that I am supposed to blog about being pregnant again, although I am still a little in shock. That and the boys keep me too busy to think about it. Right now my focus is on drinking enough water. Something that is hard to do since the boys covet my water bottle and either drink it all or spill it. I try and sneak into our pantry and cram some food in my mouth without the boys seeing me so that they don't end up eating snacks all day long. Everyone is shocked when I say that the last pregnancy was a lot easier since I am only carrying one this time. They don't know that the last time I was able to eat when I want, nap when I want, relax with my feet up. That is much harder to do this time around.

Even though life can get kind of crazy I am ecstatic about having this little baby. I am still in shock that God answered our pray. Not so much that he answered it, but in His timing. I started praying for this baby soon after the boys were born, I guess I just thought it was going to take us a long time to get pregnant so we should start praying early. Yes, I realize this thinking is not theologically sound. What can I say, we wanted another kid so we prayed and yet somehow I was still shocked when God gave me what I asked for.
