All Those Random Pictures I Found

This boy loves to move, and move, and move.

Spending some time at the park.

First taste of lemon! Surprisingly he wanted more!!

If only I could be on a real one.....

Ahhhhh! That's more like it. I've never seen a bigger grin! (That came after the ride. This picture was the hesitant before picture.)

Learning to pedal

My baby blue eyes

I think the look on his face says it all. Perhaps I should be worried!

Nightly walks down our street 

(or neighbors front lawns, whatever.)

How third hour at church usually ends.

Me: Please don't take the lid off the food coloring and you can hold it.

G: Okay

(2 minutes later)

Me: Did you take the lid off and eat some?

G: No!

Happy early birthday boys!

"L, I've never seen a cupcake inhaled before."

Happy St. Patty's Day!

Maybe I've already posted this. I'm kind of too lazy to check right now, but it's one of my favorites!

Painting easter eggs. In L's case, I think he heard "eat" instead of "paint"

Superhero playgroup party!!

Flying G's Easter kite.

Trying to catch it...

Almost....

JUST missed the tail!!

Good morning sleepyhead. How was your nap?

And how did it get back there?!

Our most frequented channel during tornado season.

Have I posted this? It's funny.

Wow...pretty lame update, but it's up, and I am caught up. Now to bed!

Learning the Alphabet

I've been interested in teaching G his letters. He's known the song for a long time now (although I'm not sure he knows "el-en-en-o-pee" is actually 5 letters...not one, as he sings it. :) But it's super cute! And a great jump from the last 8 months when he thought the alphabet started with Q and went from there. A-P only existed in mommy's version. :)
We watched this little video clip (The Letter A) and loved it! Now when I read, he likes to stare over my shoulder and point out all the A's. When we drive he finds all the A's on the signs. I'm super impressed and very proud of him!

Separation Anxiety

L has been clingy lately. But this post is not about him. And it's not about me missing my boys. I was just escaping for 3 minutes to be alone for a moment. Moments ago I sat on the couch. I have allergies that give me a wicked sore throat and I needed a break. Although I sit on the very far side of our large couch, G thinks the only spot available is the 3 inches next to me. Ergo, three inches on the couch, the rest on me. All the wigglieness of it. And L likes to bite my knees.
I escaped to my room when they had distracted each other for a moment!
Within 3 seconds of shutting the door...knock, knock, knock.
G-"Little pig, little pig. Let me come in!"
Me-"I'll be out in a minute, buddy."
Silence...for all of 2 seconds.
L may be slower at getting around, but don't doubt he's on his way anyways.
Pat, pat, pat, with his little hand.
And then BOOM, BOOM, BOOM. I'm pretty sure G is laying on his back kicking the door with his heels.
Well, that was a nice 3 minutes to not be climbed on at least.
Time to tickle attack those monkeys!

My Diamond

After doing a bunch of crafts today, G found a little ball of glue from the glue gun. He brought it to me and said, "Here's a diamond for you, Mama." *tear*
Then he proceeded to to tell me that when I get bigger I could get married and have the diamond. What a lucky Mama I am!

Numb Finger

How random is it that the very tip of my second most important finger went numb? (FYI- #1 right hand thumb, #2 right hand index, #3 left hand thumb). I didn't hit it or smash it. But it's been almost 2 days...more poor little finger. I guess I need to go on a cruise. ;)

Moths

I decided I hate moths. 24 hours ago, they seemed pretty harmless and I didn't mind them at all. But late last night as G was snuggling in bed with us after a bad dream, something sprinkled onto my face. Yes...a moth peed on me. Tristan argued I should have let him outside, but he deserved to meet the vacuum.
