Megan's Toes!!

We painted Meg's toes for the first time today!! She LOVED it. She then went and put her crocs on after the paint was dry, they are her favorite shoes, and then stopped when she realized they made it so she couldn't see her super cute toes. I put these sandals on her instead, and you should have heard her giggling with delight when she realized she could wear them AND see her toes.

Such a girl. LOVE HER!!

Those little toe nails are HARD to paint!!

She is so happy. She won't stop admiring them.

Third year is OVER

Today is officially Bo's last day as a third year medical student.

ONLY ONE YEAR LEFT till we are DONE!!!!!!

Can you tell we're excited???

You Decide

Future Gymnasts in the making? Or are they destined to be the Flying Trapeze Siblings?

I Can Do This

Yesterday I had one of those days, where at the end I thought, "I can do this."

It was that good.

We woke up, got some much needed things done, went swimming for a couple of hours, came home and the kids actually ate their lunch. Then we took a long nap, woke up, I made a great dinner, the kids actually ate again, we played, ate some cake, and then went to bed (or at least the kids did). It wasn't anything remarkable, but it was productive, fun, happy, and we were all in a good mood.

I even got a kiss on my arm and a little back rub from Carter during nap time (he takes

naps with me).

Really, with a day like that, I feel like I just might be able to accomplish this whole homemaker, housewife, mom thing.

To Bo

You are the best DAD ever!!! We scored big time getting you as a husband and dad. Thank you so much for taking such good care of us and putting up with our craziness. We adore you. You are our favorite person in the whole world and there's nothing we'd rather do than be with you.

WE LOVE YOU!!!!!

Happy Father's Day!!!

Why do I bother?

Carter has a room full of toys.

But does he play with them??????

Nooooo.

Instead, he likes to sit right next to me, and I mean RIGHT NEXT to me, on the couch, looking at the computer.

Yes, yes, maybe I should get up and go play with him and said toys, but my back hurts, so here I am sitting on the couch, with a heating pad, looking at the computer.

Hence he is sitting next to me/on me pushing buttons on the computer, NOT playing with toys. Driving me crazy. Where is his father?

Why can't he entertain himself? He never has. Meg is awesome at playing with the toys.

So there you have it. Why do I bother buying toys for Carter?? Perhaps it is for the future children, like Meg. Maybe Carter is just being generous by keeping the toys in pristine condition for them. That's it, I'm sure of it. It's all selfless.

We're a glass half-full family.

What we do

What exactly do we do all day?

.

Well. . . we like to put ourselves in tight spots.. . .

(TA DA!!)

Boost mom's self esteem. . .

(it really was good)


Develop our creative talents, or try to, while showing off our muscular torso and modeling mom's shirt. . .

Play with the objects meant to HOLD our toys, instead of playing with the toys themselves. . .

And last, but not least, we just try our hardest to be just so darn cute.
