Showing Off

Teddy has been learning lots of new tricks lately! Ignore the bruises on his head (we're big into falling down these days!) and take a look at what he can do.

Men at Work




We put the boys to work last weekend, as you can see. Lots of fun... although I guess we'll have to wait a few more years until they can really get to work on the yard!

Baby Scarface


In the middle of our crazy couple weeks of swine flu, pneumonia and various other illnesses, Henry did a faceplant into our coffee table and took a trip to the ER. He had to be sedated to receive these four stitches, which he had removed today. It was quite an experience, to say the least.


It seemed to heal OK, but I honestly don't see how it can't leave some sort of scar. Argh... boys! I'm told that scars are cool on guys, though, so hopefully it will make him look rugged and appeal to the ladies in about 20 years.

Hot and Cold...


It's been WAY too long since I've posted. I really need to get pictures up, but for now, a discussion today with Henry was just too good to ignore.

The scene: The boys are finishing up dinner. Henry asks for an "applesauce" aka yogurt (don't ask me why he calls it that!).

Right now, he's loving the "Go-gurt" kind of yogurt, basically, yogurt in a tube. Of course they all are branded with characters, so right now we have "Ro-gurt," which is the Scooby-Doo brand (get it?!).

The tubes have characters on them... Henry had Shaggy and Teddy had Daphne.


Henry: Who do I have?

Mommy: You have Shaggy.

Henry (Pointing to Teddy): He's hot.

Mommy: He's hot? What? The yogurt is cold...

Henry: No, he's hot!

Then it dawned on me... Matt gave Henry the great insight a few nights ago that Daphne was the "hot" Scooby-Doo character. Teddy's yogurt had Daphne on it.

Daddy... always teaching the boys the important things in life! :)

Rock With You!

Daddy has been playing a lot of Michael Jackson in the car lately. That means Henry and Teddy are expanding their musical knowledge beyond the Wiggles. Which is good thing, I think - how many 2-year-olds can belt out MJ?

Sing it, Henry!


Fun Times at the Fair

We went to the Pierce County Fair this past week with some family - lots of fun! Layla and Henry were lucky enough to get a wristband so they could go on unlimited rides. We visited the animals and, of course, had lots of yummy food.

Henry wasn't so sure of the rides - but Layla's enthusiasm got him into it!

Checking out the rides!

Playing a shoot-'em-out game. Uncle Randy won!

Feeding baby goats at the petting zoo.


The end of the day. Teddy had dumped water all over his outfit, so we had no choice but to strip him down to a diaper and strap him back in the stroller. Very classy look, so we decided to take a shot of it. But let's be honest - he fit right in at a county fair!

Right and Wrong

A quick recap of a cute conversation I had with Henry this morning...

I asked him to put a pair of PJ pants on, while I was busy getting breakfast ready for Teddy this morning.

Henry: (Running upstairs to me) Momma, I put my pants on by myself!
Me: Yay! Great job!
Henry: I put them on - I put the left leg on and the wrong leg on!
Me: The wrong leg?! You mean right and left?
Henry: No - left leg and wrong leg!

He was so adamant about it, it made me laugh. Cute!
