Mary Had a Little Lamb and It Said "Get the Heck Away From Me"

Erica invited us to come see their lambs. They only have 40. The lambs and their mothers weren't real excited to see us.
Grandma escorts the boys to the barn.

Nathan was bound and determined that lamb was going to eat that piece of hay. It really wasn't interested.



We went with the Circosta sisters. This is our "goodbye lambs" photo.


Freezing Our Butts Off

It wouldn't be winter without a few trips down my grandmas hill.
I don't remember what was so funny. It doesn't take much anyway.

William made a snowman and we didn't have anything for a face. Papaw had a can of Coke and William used it to stamp a face. He is my creative, artsy kid. Our house is currently covered with handmade, computer paper snowflakes. There is almost as much snow inside as there is outside.



Papaw gets persuaded to go down the hill.



This kid just doesn't quit. I had to bribe them with "I wonder what kind of snacks grandma has in her house" to get them to come inside. Food is there #1 motivator.



I Like You Mom

When you cause chaos all day, it makes you really tired. Nathan crashed on the couch.
Couldn't resist a photo of the cute little footsies sticking out.

This is one of the said activities that wears him out. He painted himself a beard. When you don't see or hear Nathan, that means you are in for it. He keeps very entertained.
He is a little brute, bully but he is always cuddling me and telling me he likes me, loves me or that I am his best friend. He knows that makes his punishment less severe.
He is finally going on the potty. It is hit or miss but he is FINALLY doing it.


Late Christmas 08 or Early Christmas 09: However You Want to Look At It

Our last stop or a really early first stop....Christmas in Michigan. Ok, so Santa got the boys a Wii. William has been drooling over Mario Cart since they met at Best Buy. I think when I was pregnant I said, "I really don't want our kids getting hooked on video games." Is asking to play video games every waking moment considered "hooked." Video games:1 Mom: 0. We also have a PS3 that accommodates all of the Lego games that we have.
Meanwhile, Nathan is punching us with real punching hands. These dandies are courtesy of Mandy and Brad. The punching hands even tell you how much they hate you as they are bashing your face in.

Nathan snagged a bib out of the diaper bag, turned it around and saved the world. He kinda likes super heroes.


Well I am really bumbed that this is blury.

Thanks for everything Grandma and Poompa.
