The boys...

Life is ever so exciting, and then you throw in three boys and three ice cream sundaes... We went to Friendly's tonight while mommy was out with her girlfriends from church. It is amazing that we made it out with only a little chocolate on our faces...

We are enjoying very nice spring weather this last week, with temperatures in the high 70/low 80's. The boys and Shannan have been living out in the driveway watching our neighbors' addition going up... Hope you all are enjoying your spring as well...

Driving?

Elmo is the only one willing to ride along these days! Look out, only 13 more years and he'll be on the road! OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!

This is it for Tuff. We don't want any more broken bones for a VERY LONG time!

Singing with a mouth full of food...

I could barely contain myself when "Spike" broke out into song at the dinner table tonight with his mouth full of toast! He is singing his rendition of "Zaccheus". Enjoy!!!

Cheese!

Candid moments at the dinner table! This is "Tuff" after eating a bowl of oranges(hence the drool) saying "cheese". He is always this happy, especially when he thinks he is going to be going to Aunt Kelli's house!!!

Captain Underpants!

Shannan sent "Spike" up to get a new pair of underpants this afternoon, and this is what he came downstairs with... I guess he thought his underpants would make a good hat... 'nuf said...

More Mommy time anyone?

My kids have been adjusting well to my extra hours at work these past two weeks. I think tonight, they'd had enough. This was taken at 11:00 tonight. I couldn't tell you the last time my kids were not in their beds at that time of night. Spike is out cold. I was still trying to get Tuff to settle down when daddy took the picture. He was just playing right beside me like this for about an hour. Tuff was in bed until I went to put Spike down. He woke up and that was the beginning of a very long two hour struggle. When Tuff got up, Spike thought he needed to be up too. The rest is history!

Between extra hours at work, Dr appointments, regular commitments and everyday life, my time with the kids has been lacking the quality they need. Overall, they've been very flexible, I just think tonight was their limit. If I would hold one, the other would cry and back and forth we went. Who can blame them? I am feeling the same way. Thankfully daddy doesn't have to work tomorrow so we are planning to do some family things and hopefully this will help us all! They are in bed and asleep as I write this and hopefully will be there for the remainder of the night. That's where I'm headed too! Good night to all!

Easter Bunny Visit

The Easter Bunny made a stop at the local DQ tonight. We took the kids to visit him there. Spike just couldn't get enough of him. I said "He's the BEST Easter Bunny I ever knew!"

Tuff, also enjoyed himself. Since he's now beginning to form words, every time the bunny walked by, he would call out in his one jibberish way and just wave away. Who knows, maybe the Easter Bunny speaks that language. He may have understood every word he was saying. He did do a lot of smiling and waving back!
