My Girly-Girl.

When she's lucky, I let her stay up late (maybe once a month).

After some cute begging, I give her a mani-pedi and let her watch WALL-E.

She requests blue, even though I don't have that color.

She always touches her fingers before they're dry.

Always.

Usually within seconds of finishing.

(They would look better, if she sat still.)

It's a fun mother-daughter moment.

I'm mildly nervous about the up-swing in girly stuff. She likes to look cute for boys. And there is a specific boy she mentions... alot.

She's not even 3 yet.

Yikes.

Sand Baby.

This is Asher's first interaction with the beach.

After he examined the sand for one whole minute...

He headed straight for the water.

The weather was perfect for a beach trip.

The next day it snowed.

Go figure.

Hannah likes rocks. The End.

You Better Run!

About 1 - 7 times a day I chase my kids down and chew on their legs.

I yell, "You better run!"

Then they run/crawl away screaming and laughing.

I really love to hunt down and chew on my kids.

I can't help it. It's instinct.

I love their laugh of terror when I catch them.

I get this wild animal urge from my dad.

P.S. They love every second of it.

Hey Asher, When's Your Baby Due?

Asher lost weight from being sick for 2 weeks. He got skinny, and I was mildly nervous about it.

Not anymore...

His appetite instantly doubled. He's on a eating rampage.

He screams at me if I don't feed him fast enough.

After dinner his belly is so full I'm afraid to hold him too tight.

(Hannah was in time out. That's why you hear so much yelling.)

Even Hannah has noticed how much Asher eats. Yesterday she said, "He's always hungry."

Glad to have a happy boy again.

(He likes to close doors. It's very exciting for him. Whatever floats your boat dude!)

Alien Parasite.

Hannah repeatedly draws the same picture.

What do you think it is?

She says it's a...

"Hannah's snake."

"Mommy and Daddy and a little guy."

"Crocodile monster candy."

I think they all look like alien parasites.

I love hearing her explanation of what it is. The description changes every time.

I wonder why she always draws this same picture.

Suzanne & Brian Sitting In A Tree...

This is my friend Suzanne.

She got married to her perfect guy.

I'm so happy I got to be there to see it.

Suzanne, I'll love your guts forever. I'm excited for you and Brian.

Special thanks to Jared, for keeping the kids alive long enough for me to spend a crazy 48 hours in AZ.

Picture of The Month - March

Santa Claus lives in our building...

And his name is Louise.

Ever since we've moved here, my neighbor Louise has showered my children with toys and clothes. Bags of them on occasion. I seriously have the next 3-4 years of clothes for Asher.

Many times she just leaves them on our door step to surprise us. This truck was the most recent surprise.

I know you don't read my blog Louise, but thanks for always taking care of us, and not just the toys and clothes, but for everything!

(My Dad will get a kick out of this picture since he fixed CAT equipment for half his life.)
