Tree Boy

One of the twins has discovered climbing trees. He's pretty daring in the tree for a kid who is scared to do anything "scary" out of the tree. The other two boys go up but not nearly as far as Noah. I may have to revise my guess as to who will have a broken bone first.

Family Pictures

I have a friend who is starting a photography business. I was able to convince her to take some pictures of the family. She's done a wonderful job and I'm loving the pictures she took. Click here to see the pictures.

I do believe these are among the only pictures I have of me and the twins. I do not like getting my picture taken and have managed to put off getting pictures of me and the boys. Now I think we missed out on so many pictures because of my stubbornness. Yes I am not at the perfect weight and I am still carrying the "twin pregnancy weight" but we really needed a family picture.

Check out Sherri's photos. She's done a great job!

Day Out with Thomas Part II

Day Out With Thomas

Just a few pictures from today's Day out with Thomas adventure. Noah was loving life and the other two were just along for the ride. I'll post a few pictures from the petting zoo at the Day out with Thomas tomorrow.

Not really much to say but when I don't post I get emails and texts asking why not. So here are a few random thoughts:

I've decided we need to give the kids chores. My problem is I just don't know what to give to the kids for chores. Anyone out there who has a 6 year old and a 4 year old who would tell me what chores they do?

I've moved the boys into booster seats. I'm not thrilled with the fact that we did and I wonder daily if we did the right thing. I'm a huge advocate of keeping kids rear facing to 35lbs and keeping kids harnessed to higher ages and weight limits.

Thanks Jen

Let me give you yet another thanks for placing this song in my mind.



I grew up loving this group. I remember singing their songs at school dances and such. I believe I even had a poster of them on my bedroom wall.
