Joshie and Mommy

The other day Joshie and I got to go to the park by ourselves. Daddy stayed home with cranky Sam and Josh and I took the 1/2 mile walk to the park and played away.

I love when I get special time like this with Josh.

Since Sam was born we don't get a lot of 1 on 1 time so it means a lot to me when we do :)




Have a great day friends

Not so productive

Today has been a not so productive day. Here is how it has gone so far

5:55AM- Ryan jumped out of bed freaking out because his alarm didn't go off. He was supposed to be to work at 6 and we live about a half hour from where he works.
6:00 AM- A Little delayed, Sam woke up screaming.
6:05AM- Joshua woke up screaming because he couldn't find his pacifier.
6:20 AM- I give up on getting Sam back to sleep without a bottle, went downstairs and pumped so he could eat.
7:15- Sam finally decided it was a good time to go back to sleep.
7:45- Joshua woke up screaming because his pacifier fell out of the bed (Sam was still sleeping)
8:05- I gave up on Joshua going back to sleep and woke up and went downstairs to get breakfast.
8:10- Sam woke up screaming, so I ended up having to pump so he could eat AGAIN.
9:00- We finally eat breakfast.

The rest of my day has been crying babies, a sick dog, short naps and long fits being thrown. I started the dishwasher and started laundry and oddly enough, I am happy with that. Both boys are FINALLY sleeping now, I don't know how long its gonna last so I am not going to do anything! My head is pounding and I am ready for bed at 1:45 in the afternoon. Maybe I will go get my massage tonight :)

Hope you are all having a better day than I am!

Finally family pictures!

A couple weeks ago we FINALLY got family pictures done by Ria Thurston of Ri Photography. I had been wanting to do family pictures since Sam was born nearly 2 months before, but obviously I have been busy and kept forgetting!

We finally got them done and we ended up going to the fairgrounds, about 3 blocks from where I grew up. Here are a few of my favorites

Seriously I love them all and it was hard for me not to put them all on here :)

I finally am ordering pictures, and hopefully we will have them on the wall by the end of the week. Sam will be 3 months old soon, but hey, better late than never! We will probably do more pictures soon since Sam is a totally different kid already. But I love these still.

Have a great week friends

When Daddy is away

We will play

And play

And play

relax a little

play some more

Take a break to eat

Pose for some pictures

then play some more

And be in awe of this super cute baby who sucks his thumb :)

This is what we do when Daddy works 2-10 and we have the night to ourselves

A day at the fair

Is it really already Wednesday? Where in the WORLD did this week go?

We have been busy busy! I guess the last 2 1/2 months since Sam has been born has been busy. I keep waiting for everything to slow down, but I don't know if it ever will. Well as promised here are a few pictures from our trip to the fair on Saturday. It was SO HOT so we only stayed a couple hours, and I was holding a cranky baby a lot of the time so we didn't get to many pictures. But here are a few of the ones I did get.

We had a fun time, even with a one year old who was terrified of all the animals and a newborn who just wasn't enjoying the heat and noise.
