My Munchkin

Looking at these pictures, it's hard to believe that my munchkin is a teenager. He still has that cute little innocent look. Big blue eyes, golden blonde curls.

My cherub.

My angel.

My heart!

Story Time

Happy Wednesday!

Summertime

I know... I know... As usual I am falling behind on getting anything posted about my kiddos! There is not too much going on it seems though, but it seems that we are always busy!



Summertime is here and the munchkin is out of school. Because he is a teenager - he gets to stay home "alone". (quotation marks because my neighbor is within 50 feet of us and she keeps tabs on him)


The little one is staying in daycare though. If daddy is home during the day - he gets to spend a day or two at the house running with the "big boys".

We are just a few weeks into summer and have been trying to keep the boys occupied. Since I work during the week - most of what we are able to do is on the weekends (when I am not cleaning the house after not touching it all week).

We have had a crawfish boil,

hung out at the pool,

spent time at the river,

taken rides in daddy's new toy through the woods,

had a houseful of teenage boys,

went to the mud races

but that is pretty much it.

So far it has been a pretty good summer! We still have a few more things we would like to do - needing to plan a camping trip along with one we have going on around the end of July, have family coming in to visit - possibly a water park then, and I would still like to make it out to the beach once or twice.

Maybe this long weekend will be eventful... Nothing planned just yet - but I think I am going to try and get the ball rolling to get out of the house!

Easter

Easter was an experiment this year, to say the least. It is the first one where my little one can somewhat understand the concept of the Easter Egg Hunt. We did one at the house, and had big brother help show him the ropes!

Big brother coloring eggs!

Little one colored his egg too!

and the hunt was on!

Thank you Easter Bunny!! Bock Bock!!!

LEMONS

As a parent, I sometimes feel guilty for the things we put our children through... but not this one!!! He kept wanting MORE!!!

Wow! Time is flying by!!

I cant believe how fast time is flying by!

(and also how long it's been since my last post...)

So - my little one has gone through some MAJOR changes in the past 4 months...

from crawling

to standing

to walking

to running

to driving -

(driving me crazy, that is!!)

He is definitely a handful!

One example - this morning while I was getting ready and was in the bathroom for less than a couple minutes - he managed to get the trashcan from the kitchen turned over on its side, the bag of trash removed from the inside, (luckily there was very minimal trash in the bag) and was straddled over the can riding it!

This child has no fear!

Does not fear the dark!

Does not fear heights!

Does not fear punishment! (on the contrary - he CHALLENGES any punishment)

He is just shy of 14 months old.

I guess I had it easy with my first one. He was a relaxed, kick-back, cuddle bug!

This one is fire all the way!!!

I wouldn't have it any other way though!

♥ I love my boys! ♥
