Just Chillin

Can I just say the created of the Bumbo must have been a mother that was pretty busy. This thing is great. You can put it wherever you need it and it seems to keep the kids pretty entertained for a while. Last night I had dishes to do, Imagine that, and Katelee just wanted some attention. She wouldn't lay on the floor in the other room so I moved her in to watch me work and she loved it. I know I keep saying this, But...Isn't she a cutie? Even with the Binky taking up most of her face she is still cute to me!

Our New Project!

We have decided that we are going to put wood floors in our house. The carpet is just ridiculously dirty and I can't stand it any more. With a son like Ethan wood is really the best option. This kid will continually bring handfuls of dirt in from outside or just pockets full. The vacuum is getting it's exercise with all the dirt it picks up!

With our Tax Refund this year we have put most of it towards Chris' schooling and the rest is going towards the floors. Costco had an $8 off each box of flooring coupon and we saved over $250 on our floor purchase! I just can't wait to get this stuff in our house! (Side note: isn't my son just plain cute?)

I love this color and if any of you notice the name...Antique Hickory, you might find it funny. My nickname is school was Hickory....Who knew one day I would have flooring named after me! :) Wish us luck on putting this stuff in! I'll post Completed picture in a while, when we actually get the floors done! :)

Good Old Elmers Glue!

Since my daughter does not have very much hair, we decided to glue a bow in. It works great, and apparently this is how my bows stayed in my hair at this age! What is nice is it comes off really easily and the glue just wipes off with a wet cloth! Katelee was stunning at church on Sunday with her bow, until she decided to hit her head with her hand, and off came the bow! I always dreaded having a girl because I would have to do her hair, but this gluing thing isn't half bad!

Ethan's New Smile!!!

This is what you get now when you tell Ethan to Smile! Isn't that just the cutest smile you have ever seen? (Just a side note, he is not making fun of any Asians, this is simply how he smiles now, so please do not sue us!)

Mommy/Son and Daddy/Daughter

Don't you just love Ethan's hair? It's getting so long it looks like he has a mullet in the back! :)
Aren't they CUTE???
(Katelee loves her hands, they must taste like chicken because she is always munching on them!)

Ethan's New Shoes

I have always heard that when you have another kid the older siblings tend to want to use all of their baby toys again and such, but I didn't expect this.....The other day after Ethan's nap I told him to bring me his socks and shoes. He runs around the living room for a while and then brings over Katelee's shoes. I laugh and say go get your shoes and he starts to cry. So I did what every mother would do.......I put Katelee's shoes on him and he loved it!
The didn't even come close to fitting him, but he wanted to wear them anyways. I got them on him and he ran straight for his Harley and started riding around...

Then when I went to take a picture he wanted to pose. The boy has no shame and has no idea how this might embarrass him one day. Although if he is anything like his mom and dad he won't care much at all when he gets older!

My Son....

So we have been potty training Ethan for a while now. He does really good during the day with Grandma and has even started pooping in the potty. (I think the boy is going to get a hemorrhoid because he pushes so hard) Well we got ready for church Sunday and took Ethan to the potty right before we left. As soon as they announce the Sacrament hymn Ethan looks at me and says Pee Pee. I say are you sure and he says Pee Pee. So I take him to the potty and he goes quite a bit. So we get back into church and he plays for a bit and then says Pee Pee again. Thinking that he might just be trying to say Drink I said "we'll get a drink after church" and he looks at me and says No Pee Pee. So we go Pee Pee again. He goes quite a bit once again! So then we go back in to church and he plays some more and then says Pee Pee again. This time I'm thinking he really doesn't need to go, he has gone twice in like 30 minutes. But he insists and gets annoying so Chris finally takes him out and the kid goes pee pee again! The kid has already learned that by going Pee Pee he gets out of church! I sware this boy is the smartest 2 year old I know!
