Summer time = Popsicle time

 And....

  

Popsicles = Happy Kids

Happy Kids = Happy Mom

But sometimes.....

 popsicle's = messy, sticky kids = not so happy Mom. ;) 

I love popsicle's in the Summer. 

Boys Club

So, this is my first post for my new "Boys Club" posts, that I want to start doing. I thought I would start with this one as I put Max to sleep last night and instead of wanting something soft like a stuffed Teddy Bear to sleep with, Max wanted his plastic toy Shark and Killer Whale.
He's been sleeping with them for about a week. It makes me laugh and is SO Max. He's really into sea animals right now, especially, Sharks and Whales. He wants to watch our Discovery Blue Planet DVD'S all the time. He cracks me up!
So, to be in this Boys Club, you've got to be willing to sleep with Killer whales and Sharks. ;)

Happy Father's Day

We're big FANS of Father's Day around here. We've got a GREAT dad! Max and Easton are two LUCKY boys!

We made a book for Shaun that I downloaded from Pinterest. It has some questions and Max didn't disappoint with his answers. Here's the questions and Max's answers......

My Dad's name is?    DAD

How old is Dad?    THREE (This may have something to do with the fact that Max is three)

What color is Dad's hair?   YELLOW (This may have to do with the fact that I was pointing to my hair when I asked the question)

For work, He?     SMASHES FLIES  (Haha! kids are so funny!)

What does Dad like to do?    SWIMMING AND SMASHING FLIES.  (haha! the flies again)

Dad likes to watch?   BABY NOAH (this is a favorite of Max's)

Is Dad funny?   YES

It makes me happy when He?    TAKES ME SWIMMING, WATCHES BABY NOAH AND SHARKS

I love Dad because......

1. He smashes flies  (haha! he must really like when Shaun smashes flies)

2. Takes me swimming

3. watches Baby Noah

4. He's Nice

5. He's Fun

6. He plays Trucks

Now, I can't wait to see what Easton's answer's will be when he gets older. We love our DADDY!!

I'm also THANKFUL for my AMAZING Father! Who has now become the best Grandpa ever! Love you DAD!!

THREE months? WHAT!?

That's right, It's been THREE months since my last post. I'm annoyed that I've been slacking on my blog. I've got TONS of things to blog about and can't seem to get it done! I've been working on other projects and busy with my little darlings (most of the time darlings. ;)
I need to come up with a better system for blogging. I need to bring back my, "phrase of the week." and I'm also going to start a "boys club" post. That will help me write things about the boys and things I'm learning about boys, anything that has to do with raising boys ext....
Because I'm SUPER backed up on posts. My blog may get pretty random for a while as I try to catch up on some things. So we may get Easter in July, the boys APRIL birthdays in September, things like that, who knows.
I just want to keep some record of our lives, for us and the boys.
I love you Max and Easton! I love being your Mom and want to always remember these special times with you. It will be a treasure for me to look back on.
I really look at you, I mean REALLY look at you, and want to etch you in my brain at every stage of your lives. I don't want to forget the special moments or even the everyday moments that are and become so precious to me.
