Airplanes and helitopters.........

I took LM to an airshow/ fly in today and he loved every second. He got to see "helitopters" and airplanes although we didn't see daddy's airplane which was alittle disappointing to him. He had a good time and fell asleep on the way home.....here are a few pictures. As you can see

he had a blast. He kept saying mommy take picture of lm and airplane......cheese! And yesterday we finally had weather warm enough to get out the pool and sprinkler so he enjoyed playing in the water while I repeatedly put the paci back in Miss G's mouth so he could continue to play......man they should make headgear for those things!!!

Bunny's ears need a cleaning

LM got a bunny from Nanny. It's a huge bunny---much to mommy's chagrin (have I told you all how much I LOVE stuffed animals?) Okay , I do like them but LM has a tendency to pick at and chew on the "puzz" (fuzz). Well, now bunny has become his carry around friend who sits in the swing, the baby bouncer and gets a blanket when he is taking a nap....he also decided to find some cotton balls and give bunny's ears a cleaning just like Mommy does to the doggies. It was so cute, I almost couldn't stand it.

Miss G is growing so big and wearing 3 month clothes now....she may get to wear her little dresses yet. We finally have temps in the low 70's so the kids can wear short sleeve shirts now. We always need more winter clothes living her ethan summer clothes but such is life in the PNW. We may even break out the sprinkler today.

We just went to the mailbox and a very mysterious thung followed us.it befuddled LM as we don't see it much here in the PNW ...he kept pointing it out...its his shadow :)

Pussing.....

......is that a form of puss oozing out....why no, it's not! It's what you call it when you can't say f's and your baby sister is crying. So mommy, baby sister is "pussing" . I love it! He is so cute. He can say "fruit snacks" but not "goldfish"...it's "goldpish". When you try and emphasizethe f he just says it slower and louder with a p. My constant entertainment!

Rice cereal and dog slobber don't mix

So my day started okay. Miss G slept through the night until 4:30am so that was wonderful. Little Man went to a sitter this am for a few hours so I got started and didn't stop until he came home......cleaning out the car, monogramming in between that and cleaning the garage, cleaning house, etc. Paw paw was fixing various things around the house, Mimi was entertaining Miss G and all was fine. Paw paw even took the dogs for a walk for me to get them some exercise b/c I am supposed to be resting....and not healing like I should because I am not resting.....but yall know that is me. Anyway......we went to lunch at the O Club and kids were great, food was better than McD's and we came home to a box from Nanny. Tons of goodies for Miss G and LM which LM loved opening. So far, so good , right??
Then we went to the Farmer's Market......remember dogs had been walked and played outside most of the day. While we were gone this is what I picture must have happened:
Mattie: Hey guys there is a box of rice cereal on the counter, I will sneak in and get it.
BT says: yeah, yeah, yeah.....
Beau: What, I was too busy taking the pillows off the couch with my mouth to create a spot to lay down.....mom thinks she is so clever putting all these pillows up here....ha
Mattie drags the rice cereal off the counter and sprays it all over the kitchen , even under the stove......BT and Mattie join in together to drag the box to the living room and spread it even further, then rip the box to shreds.....
Mattie: don't worry we can lick it all up (at which point they begin to lick it all up and mix slobber with rice cereal which turns into a cakey mix and it's all over everything, the oven, cabinets , floor, rugs, you name it )
BT: Mattie, you are hogging it all...get out of my way! (BT then apparently bites mattie putting a small hole in her nose and in her mouth, cutting her gums)

We come home to:
Little Man turns the corner to the kitchen and sees a box all torn up on the floor and says " AWWW, Who done that? " So cute but I knew what mess we must have.......
Three dogs with rice cereal stuck on their eyes, nose , ears, mouth.....and BT with dried blood on him. The couch is a mess with dog hair all over it, Bt has jumped on our leather toy chest and put a hole in it and mattie has holes all in her face while the entire living room and kitchen are covered in rice cereal matted up on everything.

So, how was your day?? :)

Tornadoes and Tulips......

A little weird , I know but what I am going to call the blog for now........the first two things that popped into my head when I thought how to compare Little man and Miss G. He obviously is the tornado and she is the tulip.

Miss G is doing great. She eats , sleeps and poops and gets very angry when a wet wipie touches her....but she has become a master at peeing on mommy and poops always come in threes with her so watch out when you are changing a stinky. She is a sweet baby and is a little mini me of her mommy with daddy's long fingers and toes. I love soaking up every second I can with her. She has found her hair and plays with it just like her big brother did but she pulls it and then screeches. She doesn't cry unless she is hungry--otherwise she is screeching like a bird--an owl maybe.

Little Man is doing so well with her. He reminds me each time that she needs to eat that she eats from mommy's booby....cracks me up. He is so cute with her. Has to hold her, see her, touch her eveyrtime he can. .......and then he kisses her on the hands, feet, head. It's so sweet. He has called her "herm" .......him and her combined...it's precious. He is saying so many new things and saying such long sentences and soo soo cute. He repeats EVERYTHING......EVERYTHING.

so watch what you say around him ;)

Daddy has been able to come home for a couple of visits which were unexpected so very nice. He is doing well and able to talk to us a lot . The dogs love the new little one and have to sniff every time I come in the house to make sure she is with us.

Mimi and Paw paw are here visiting and we are enjoying that and soooo thankful for their help. LM is getting lots of attention and loving it......hope he doesn't get too disappointed when they leave. I will have to get a sitter and keep him busy. No rest for the weary , huh?

Anyway, here are some pictures for your enjoyment.......
