No Eggagerations!

Off we went to Mike and Sarah's for an Awesome Brunch and Egg hunt. We had a smaller turnout of children(colds) but that just meant more eggs for the rest. A slow start for the boys but soon enough we had Charlie picking up eggs in no time. Logan had the idea that we were making him clean up the yard (in a way he's totally right) he took a little longer but started to get the idea to keep the eggs in the basket and there's Candy in those eggs! Jackpot!!

Corbin, made out like a bandit!! The slow start of the boys and one other much younger boy helped Corbin get in his opportunity, he did great and found some pretty hard eggs hiding in the trees and bushes. The rain did not dampen their spirits to going outside and the hunt was over just in time for the rain to start again.

Too Big for the Cribs

It has come to my attention the boys are growing at super speed and as such we need to buy bigger beds(coming soon). Oh of course, they are about an 1 apart in height so Two beds at the same time is what we have to do. I think they will enjoy their new found freedom and explore the new rules of staying in bed. Wish us All luck on the Milestone of bigger and better things!

Logan

I like to eat,eat,eat apples and ...

We have dusting mits on our feet and they're fun! Oh but we have to walk carefully!!

Our long time friend Megan has a babyshower for her daughter Evelyn (3months) she lives farther away so we had one at her mothers house (better late than never). We had lots of fun and Evelyn liked the company.

Okay, so we have apples and mud. Not the same day but intertaining non the less. Both boys plow through apples like nobody's business. So I have to keep an eye on them or they eat the whole thing. Yes the whole apple!

Finally the mud! We had a bad day at school : teacher had a baby so we are with a sub(shes good but not their teacher), confrences are this week so the shedule is off, it's been raining on and off for months! So whats a boy to do but throw a Huge fit while leaving school. Yeah, melt-down city came and apparently I'm the mayor of this place and have to find something to get Logan to come back to normal-ville. Answer: MUD!!

The mud sutes them, don't ya think!

More words, less pictures.

So it's March and good thing to, the Wet weather is beyond annoying. Now we have wind and rain already hitting us early this month, at lest it's not snowing!Yet. That being said I cannot wait for the sun and see a blue sky( lasting more than 10min's).


Here in the west we had to be on a tsunami watch because of the Japan 8.9 earthquake luckily it had been only 4 ft higher than normal thankfully not many people went out to see the larger waves and became victims themselves. Unfortunately I can't say the same for Japan, so sad and all you can do is watch on the t.v. what is happening. For the people who don't know, there is a military base set in Japan and lots of family and friends are waiting for loved ones to reach them. I think this is so hard to even wrap our heads around, so I guess we pray for finding survivors and hope they work together in rebuilding their country, brick by brick.


On a much lighter note, Charlies new hero is Alex Trebek, he pretends to talk to contestants and claps for himself and then he mixes in Wheel of Fortune and says a letter and pretends the couch cushion's are the letter screens. Very funny, no pics he's camera shy when he does this.


Logan has been more vocal, not verbal though he has been trying more and more lately. He is still very much into Thomas and is starting to put letters together and finding out that they make words, my little sponges. Also Logan has been more interested in looks at the books he picks out and taking more time to go through them before bedtime, Yeah.

Pictures aren't so easy as they look!!

This is the best picture out of over 50 taken by my patient friend(Kristin) who help take some family photos for me. Bless her heart, we had Logan doing pretty well and Charlie wanted nothing to do with it.

So all in all, I think we did pretty well for two 3yr olds and no one ended up in a white jacket. I hope this helps any one who has kiddos that a picture is more than a moment in time, it's proof that you survived the day! Good luck and God speed!!

This is how we Roll!

Logan and Charlie decided it was time for a morning ride, granted it was 8am they enjoyed them selves for a couple hours, yes I said hours!

Charlie is helping by towing his brother from the wall. Logan is grateful and gives Charlie reason to be a helper a few times during his ride. They are getting too big for these toys.

Happy Christmas and Merry New Year!! yeah thats on purpose

So the boys decided to Drum in the holidays Matthew McConaghey style, except clothed and only high on sugar! We had a LONG year, hence the word long in Caps. The boys are going to Pre-school twice a week and are doing better at me leaving and them staying. Still potty training but I will not be defeated, at this pace I don't have a choice, but I do have a helper at their school that is helping in the area and others for Logan and Charlies speech and developmental needs at school which is a Huge help!!

Charlies speech has increased but so have the tantrums, normal for a three yr old. He is also growing like a weed so I'm sure the testing and fits are the growing pains.

Logan's speech is coming along but learned that he will need additional help with learning techniques that are more common with children with Autism, so baby steps and different way of learning for me.

See they can sit and be civil, well at least for a few moments.

Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and Get a Happy New Year!!!
