This , that and the other

We are all a little sleep deprived..... maybe that is why these things were so funny to me-

Today Nate had this little toy and brought it over to me and said, "Look at this"
I said " Where'd you get that?" and he said " I got it from Ebay"
Yes, it's true. I have been buying a lot of things on ebay lately to get my retail therapy fix because things have been kinda crazy around here and quite frankly- it is a lot easier than hauling 2 kids to the mall!


Then tonight during dinner I had made him a grilled cheese sandwich with this
because I bought it a few weeks ago to make meal times easier. It had worked thus far- but tonight he didn't want to eat dinner and he picked up his dino and made him walk on his plate and then said "No Nate! Don't eat me!" and then looked at me and said, " Mom. I can't eat it. He doesn't want me to". How could I argue against that?!

Andrew is growing like a champ. Out of newborn clothes... he has got to be over 10 lbs. It is kinda fun to have a chubby baby! Check out those cheeks! Deer in the headlights look = the camera flash

A frog and a prince

Last night Chris and Nate caught a frog. Chris wanted to put him in the bathtub with Nate- I said no- and compromised with letting them keep him in our bug cage and put it on top of the fridge. Nate woke up last night and we were rocking in the chair when we heard a noise. Nate said, "what was that?" I had no idea because I was more than half asleep. Nate decided it was the frog. We both went back to sleep without another thought of it. In the morning I was nursing Andrew and all of the sudden I saw the frog jumping across the rug in the family room! So it was the frog we heard last night! How it got the lid open and survived the jump from on top of the fridge, I will never know!



Andrew is growing so quickly! He is probably about 10 lb. now. He is going to be a big boy like his brother.

Most of our time these days is spent like this...


and this...



And do my boys have the coolest dad or what?
