A day at the Park

We had super fun at the park today. We love taking the boys to play on the playground and throw balls. They are getting so big now it's really fun to hang out there. Of course they also love to tackle too. Poor Grayson! Gavin has got a great football throw and can actually spin the ball when he throws it. Greg has taught him how to aim and throw. It's really cute! Love being a boy mom.....

Round 2

We've tried it before but due to no naps and no sleeping at night we quickly bailed on G&G sharing a room. The boys kept asking us and Gavin needed a big boy bed so we decided to give it another try, this time with new furniture and theme. I really want to bunk their beds but fear there super hero tenancies will create many trips to the ER right now. So we got them beds that can bunk but don't have to right now! G&G love their new room. Gavin was so sweet saying "Thank you so much Mommy for my new furniture and big boy room!" Grayson loves his new big boy bed. Everything for Grayson is about leaving baby behind. He's totally potty trained, got new big boy shoes, big boy underwear and now his big boy bed in the big boy room.... G&G are sleeping good at night-it takes a little longer to get them down, but they stay down. Nap time is another story and is quite the beating. We have Grays's old room set up with Gavin's toddler funiture-conversion crib and all-so we may have Gray nap in there, only I think he will rebel big time since that is the "baby room!" Love those boys!!

Police Brutality

That is how I feel after a day with Gavin now. His love of dress up and his super creative imagination have expanded thanks to one of his Christmas presents. We got him, I mean Santa got him a police dress up for Christmas. He loves it....I MEAN really loves it. The following conversation occurred:

Greg: "Do you know what policemen do Gavin?"
Gavin: "Yes, they give tickets and woopings with their womping stick."
Greg: "How do you know this Gavin" (trying to bite his lip from laughing inside so hard)
Gavin:"Cause I have a BRAIN!"

Yea, and he's only 3! He runs around trying to put everybody in cuffs. Boomer, Me, Grayson, and his big overstuffed teddy bear. All the while yelling "wooping on a wooping!"

Cutie Pies

Super cute pictures before church Sunday. They are growing up so fast!!!

Young man, there's no need to feel down.....

I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground...It's fun to stay at the Y-M-C-A!!

Okay, I can't help myself. After putting Gavin to bed I was cleaning up the playroom when I came across his Diego mobile with his little people lined up like a flat bed trailer in a parade. Then to top it off the avatar animals lines up in front. Immediately in my head played villiage people's YMCA....and for just a minute I imagined these little people doing the dance and singing YMCA on Go Diego's truck...it was a moment. Those of you who know me well know that I live in 'Ally McBeal laugh-a-lot brain!!' Little did Gavin know when he set this 'scene' his Mommy would enjoy it so much!

Thanks buddy!

Happy Birthday Jesus

We thank you for being our savior
We thank you for forgiveness
We thank you for your faithfulness
But must of all we thank you for loving us.

We celebrated a very special birthday today.
We all enjoyed our cupcakes. I'm certain Jesus enjoyed seeing his children celebrate his life too!

...not a creature was stirring not even a mouse

And now we wait and sleep with our dreams of a white Christmas already coming true as the snow continues to fall and dust the old summer grass into a white velvet sheet. Good night.....
