Playing Inside!

Aidan being silly!

Our messy house after the boys played inside all morning because it was too cold to go outside!

My sweet boys!

Not a good sign when both boys like to sit in the time out spot! Niether one was asked to sit there, but Ethan thought it was funny that Aidan likes it in timeout!

I wonder if either one will be this happy in Timeout the next time they get sent there!??? Hmm.... I doubt it.

Having some fun in the kitchen cabinet!

Today I decided to let Aidan play in the kitchen cabinet that mostly has tupperware in it while I unloaded the dishwasher in stead of trying to Unload the dishwasher and constantly having to tell him to stop messing with the dishes. Well it worked like a charm, he had a blast and not once did he mess with the dishwasher!

Strawberry picking at Pappy's

Today I took the boys to pick Strawberrys at Pappy's farm. We were joined by our friends, Julia, Drew, and Reagan. It was alot of fun and the strawberrys are soooo yummy! Ethan had a blast picking the biggest and brightest ones he could find. We will definitely be back!

Aidan's Birthday Party!

Today we had Aidan's first Birthday Party! The morning started like any other morning but then Aidan was walking and since he is still pretty new at it and he decided to walk holding his new Thomas the train flashlight, he fell and cut his upper labial forenum! Fancy word for the skin that holds your upper lip and gums together. Well this sucker bleeds like crazy! Needless to say it made me queezy to see my poor baby bleeding that much! After his morning nap, he woke up and it still was bleeding and after speaking with my sister the nurse who said there's not much you can do about it, we just kept pressure on it and it bled the whole party! Pretty stressful having to keep wiping his mouth. Well the party was stressful but fun, the kids had a blast in the bounce house, we had yummy pizza, dip,chips, grapes, and cake! We were so happy that Papa Pete also made it to the party! Well it will definitely be a first Birthday we will never forget! After his afternoon nap he sucked on a popsicle and the bleeding had finally stopped! Hopefully that will be the first and last injury for a looooong time! Happy Birthday Aidan!

Sea World

Today we took the boys to Sea World. It was still decorated for the Holidays and was so pretty and festive. They had beautiful, huge Christmas trees! Ethan was tall enough to ride the Shamu roller coaster and loved it so much he rode once with me and then right after asked if he could go again, so Joey took him. Aidan had a blast too! The boys were so exhausted they fell asleep a few minutes after we rode away from the park. We can't wait to go back!

Monkey!

Today Aidan received a special gift in the mail from Aunt Sandy, Uncle Peter, Mady and Zach. He Loves his new Monkey! He is so cute with it, He gives him kisses and big hugs!! Thank you! We are saving the other gift to open at his party! He also loved the birthday card from mady. We miss you and love you all!
