sand and happy

Sand between his teeth, Zach is so very happy on the school playground.I just need a spoon to eat him up...sand and all.

Field trip

Reece's school went on a field trip to Launa's Little Library today.
I drove, but didn't have room to take anyone but my boys. Another reason for the minivan. If I say it enough times, maybe it will come true. : )

Loved watching Ms. K read to the kids.While Zach roamed and tried to escape. Thank you, sweet Aubrey Joy, for helping!

bath giggles

hands

One thing I'll miss when I get my minivan...holding hands w Reece.

no likey

I think I took him in just to confirm it wasn't anything more than molars.
My fb post this morning may have prompted...2nd or 3rd time up? I've lost count already.

Either way, I think he was ok, no infections this time from what I can remember (cough, backblogging).

But, this picture is hilarious. Busted out into tears as soon as Dr H opened the door. You can see his reflection in the plexi-glass. Hilar.

molars, molars, and more molars

A reflection on my facebook statuses on this lovely topic.
It's clear teeth have been an issue for Zach, especially these big ones.
Sat September 25, 2010, 2:56 am: Molars.
Thu September 16, 2010, 4:40 am: Molars.
Tue September 14, 2010, 5:11 am: Molars. Oh how they hurt us both.

Bailey's 5th

4 haircutes

1 neighborhood barber. 1 good guy. 1 pair of scissors. 1 pair of clippers.
4 handsome boys.Haircutes!

6 stumbles

6 stumbles. More progress. No hurry, bubbly. No hurry.

Earlier today, he found me in the kitchen, sneaking in some chopping. #cookingthwartedagain. And, God why did you make sweet potatoes so hard!?

4 steps

4 steps this evening. Another week or two and maybe we'll have a walker. Take your time, Bubbly, take your time.

in a day

A few facebook posts from today...I like the story it tells.

Yet again in the kitchen, and I can hardly think past the screaming. Sigh

whew, we survived.

Two steps today. So thankful its my arms he falls into. Maybe the interrupted sleep means he's working on a new skill.

Just came out of Zach's room after he woke up again fussy. Feel right asleep on his mommy's chest. I might not always appreciate Mr. Fussy Pants, but oh how I adore Mr. Snuggle Bottom. Take your time, Bubbly. (If Reece was reading this, he would be covering his mouth with his hand while giggling and saying 'snuggle BOTTOM!')

Peek-a-boo

Not the best pics, but I just didn't want to forget this phase.
He loves peek-a-boo. Unfortunately, it is often during dinner. ; )

chapel

Just left chapel w Reece's class.
Zach was a squirmy worm, but wouldn't have traded that for filling up that sweet boy's tank for anything.

Later that afternoon...
Reece was telling me that a few people said they saw me today. I reminded him that they saw me at chapel this morning. I asked him, "How'd that make you feel that I came to chapel today?" Reece: "Loved." Perfect, that's just what I was going for.

in the kitchen

I am trying to cook, therefore Zach is screaming. He's likes to eat, not sure why he always fusses when I'm in the kitchen. If only he'd make the correlation. Ok, I'll be grateful.

and then later tonight...
wonders if anyone has ever put a half eaten dinner plate into the fridge because they were too tired to clean it up, and didn't want to wake up the sleeping baby whose bedroom is perhaps unwisely right off the kitchen. yeah, just wondering...

a walk

A lovely walk to the lake with the boys...

Love the Lord...

Game 2

a range of thought

'Dad would it be funny if all the restaurants were called Mr. Undies?'. Reece, two seconds later, 'Oh how beautiful!!!! Look at the clouds. Look at what God made today!'. What a range.

Celebrating with a big Hiyah

Reece was the littlest guy at Aidan's tae kwon do birthday celebration. He loved, loved it.He even got to break a board.
