Who needs Snow

I decided to try and get a little backing done, and thought this would be a good way to occupy the boys. Yeah, I gave them cups of flower to play with. One cup was not enough, once it was all over the floor they wanted more. It did occupy them, but ended up meaning a lot more work for me. Oh well, they had fun.


Notice Andrew's pants, they used to be black.


Luckily Nana came over at just the right time and helped us get cleaned up.

Baby c Belly Bump

Well we are 6 weeks away from meeting our third little one. I can't believe I will soon have three little ones crawling all over me. I am so excited to meet this little boy or girl, and I am also overwhelmed with the idea of still having time with my boys. They light up my life and make me smile all the time. We are really enjoying there talking, nonsense jabber stage. They get more and more personality all the time.

We were lucky enough to do an amazing photo shoot with an old friend. She is great at capturing family and maternity. I love working with her. She is amazingly creating and patient working with two not so cooperative boys. Here are a few (actually a lot) of our maternity shots. I have so many favorites I had to post a ton. I will post some of our family shots soon.














This last one is our favorite.

So these were at 29 weeks. Obviously we are both much bigger now. I will try to get updated belly shots soon.

Here are some of the highlights from the boys first trip to a Zoo. It was a cold day but we all had a ton of fun. Be warned, it is a lot of pictures, Sorry.


*Meercat was the fist animal that caught their attention. They liked watching it dig and hide in the dirt.

Andrew, our tough guy explored the Aviary on his own and didn't mind the birds all around him.

Nathan on the other hand was chased by a little by a bird and wast not feeling quite so brave. Mommy kept asking him if he wanted to see the birds. "No! Bye-Bye!" was his answer every time, as he pointed to the door.


Nathan was very excited about feeding the Giraffes. But only Daddy was able to reach them.

Andrew is very impressed and wants Daddy to feed them again.

Nathan tries to get some more food.

The Camel was moaning and groaning. Both boys just stood there staring, not quite sure what he was making so much noise about. I love Nathan's face.

After walking around most of the park we took the boys to the petting zoo.


Nathan running away from a baby goat. I think he knows the goat is after his sweatshirt.


Andrew is a little unsure of all these animals around.
But seemed to enjoy petting this little guy.

However, he quickly reminded Daddy that he is far more interested in the lady with the broom sweeping up the poop. He would have been ecstatic if he could have played with the broom.

Yeah, that is why Nathan knew to run.


Nathan uses Daddy's hands to do things for him. It is far less messy if Daddy feeds the goats. He did not pet the starfish either, he used Daddy's hands to pet them for him. He is one smart kid.


Petting them was fun but it is much easier to feed them through the gate. It keeps us safe from getting mobbed.

Soon the boys were far more interested in playing in the drinking fountain and we decide it was time to head home. We had a ton of fun and are looking forward to taking the boys again in a few months.
