Springtime Fun!

Beautiful weather and a really fun time at the park.

My Favorite Guys!

I'm going to see Shrek III with my favorite guys. The first two movies are referred to in our house as "Shrek and the Dragon" and "Shrek and the Kitty" so it will be interesting to see what this one will be named.

One Man Demolition Crew!

Well, he's walking, REALLY walking now! Baby guy is so thrilled with himself. Aside from walking he is a major demolition expert. He has had two baths today due to "toilet visits". Oh, yes. When it's really quiet (like he's not hanging on my pant leg) I know something is up. He was also eating old Target popcorn out of the garbage. Clearing the shoe rack of it's 20 pairs of shoes, climbing from the couch onto the end table and throwing all table top items onto floor (lamp is now in closet), happily ripping through piles of folded laundry, pulling out diaper wipes as fast as humanly possible, and on and on. He fell asleep tonight at 6:30 which is an hour and a half early. Thank God! The big boys and I are savoring the peace:)

First Tooth!

It's here! Finally! At 13 months old the first tooth (actually teeth) has arrived. Baby boy got one on the top and one on the bottom! I have to admit I was getting a little nervous that they weren't ever going to come. Big brothers both had 12 teeth by the same age!

The New Baby

Our baby has a new baby! Isn't he cute. You can find him (or her) at annegeddes.com.

The baby comes in this egg! So cute!

The Happiest Place on Earth!

Yes, Disneyland. We just returned from a 5 day trip to the happiest place on earth! We were treated to a free trip from my dad and step-mom. I know, WOW. There were 13 family members including 6 boys ages, 10, 8, 6, 5, 3 and 1! We had a GREAT time:) Here are some of the best pictures of the trip.

Ball Therapy:)

It's been a loooooong day today. The oldest child is sick now. He has been home from school the last two days. Mr. middle child could not have been higher maintenance today! Cry, whine, argue, repeat! The baby guy is just full of good old energy and a little fussy with teeth coming in. The hubby has been gone working the last 3 days too which makes everyone a little nutty. Sometime during dinner I glazed over and was dreaming of a BIG glass of wine or a giant ice-cream sundae! While cleaning up the kitchen we listen to "kid" music and dance. The middle child was finally out of his "thing" and brought out the bag of balls. "Great idea!" I declared. The balls are dumped onto the floor and the boys have such a good time crawling/running through them. They throw them all over the place and have a "ball". What a good stress reliever too.
