Boy do we love being at home. Don't get me wrong, I would very much go crazy if we did not get out of the house on a regular basis, but boy do we all (Luke excluded!) love waking up and not having to be in a rush to go anywhere. I'm so thankful for my hubby for bringing home the paycheck so we can play, play, play all day! The boys say, "Thanks daddy!"
I just realized that the boys have their pj bottoms on still.
And of course the 'Bob's' are on Adler's feet.
They're having a little snack time
while Olivia stays close by for the hopeful drop
of goldfish or raisins!
What a treat.
I often find her eating their snack if they leave it unattended
for a couple seconds.
Then we have snack time again.
The latest craze is to climb (well I mean...jump) on
Adler's bed and attempt to
climb up the rocking chair to get on the bed.
There have been several bumps and a few shed tears
as a result.
Boys will be boys!
More climbing!
p.s. I LOVE gap pj's.
They can clearly be worn during the day
and they're so darn cute & comfy.
Why do they make most hard hats without the
adjustable strap inside that makes it fit to size.
Plastic slips and slides all over and does not
stay on their head. What a waste.
But because they love these hats so much,
they're getting another one included in their
tool set for Christmas.
It's sure to be a hit!
He loves being goofy.
And he loves this hat.
(especially when Adler wants to wear it)
And I love his puffy cheeky smile when he's goofy.
Change.
Change is so hard.
Especially when you don't want your morning nap anymore,
but can't quite make it to your
afternoon nap!
Little stinker.
As I told you before, we make cookies weekly (at least).
Here's Adler enjoying the dough.
Again.
Was this a scene or what.....
First of all, as usual my mom was Mrs. Scrooge
and said she was not going to have a tree this year
(like she says every year)
Drives me crazy!
Because as you know I love Christmas.
So I was pleased to hear that they received a donated tree
from my sister & her hubby
who cut it down for them from someone who wanted to
get rid of some trees, it was time to decorate this mammoth!
(Think of the Griswold's on National Lampoon's! haha)
Mammoth as in this tree is probably 15 feet tall
and has to be placed in the middle of the dome
to fit in their house.
Needless to say it's beautiful,
but how were we supposed to decorate it?
Well, you grab grandma's 'grabber' thing, a ladder, and
a good lookin man to reach way up to the top.
With MANY lights & ornaments broken
in the process.
It was quite the show to say the least.
Brock enjoys the rocking chair at G & G Johnson's too.
Adler had a lot of fun recently helping Grandpa plow snow
in the bobcat.
We even had to pray for Grandpa a few nights because
as Adler says, "I want to pray for Grandpa because he has a big
bucket for his bobcat!"
Then there are the days that Brock does make it through
lunch without a little snooze to hold him over.
This day he particularly wanted to play & not eat.
So he rubbed his plate of food on his head.
I can even see a chunk in his hair!
What a funny boy.
And he clearly knows he's pretty funny too!
So we had to take a mini shower to get the
food out of his hair.
Then they thought it was play time,
when it was very much naptime
for both boys and mom!
I'm feeling a little better now finally.
So my daily job productivity is increasing
slow but sure!
A couple days ago, we got a special treat....
Grandma Yvonne, auntie Erin, and cousin Gabe
stopped by to play.
Erin was in charge of watching the boys in the bathroom
so I gave them each a push up and bubbles
and told her to keep it under control!!!
HAHAHAHAHA
Brock had chocolate everywhere as you can see.
I love chocolate.
No one could take that thing away from him either.
Stinker!
This is what went on at our house tonight.
Adler & Brock feeding each other 'puppy chow'.
It was so funny. Brock just kept his mouth open
so Adler kept putting more in his mouth!
Then I realized what he was doing.
Adler filled Brock's mouth so full that it gave him
an opportunity to scarf the rest down
without other little fingers grabbing at more!
I know, I know....."Thanks mom!"
It was a afternoon for haircuts and cooking!
I gave Adler a haircut.
And no I'm not good at it, but who cares.
Probably just as good as great clips?!
Then I got a hair cut too.
I love the salon I go to in Monti.
Great stylists and the best atmosphere.
They have you lay back on a leather chair with
ottoman to kick your feet up & relax as they wash your hair
and then they give you a 5 minute
neck massage too.
AHHHHH
What a nice little get away!
Then the boys woke up and we started cooking
so we can deliver our 'goodies' to our neighbors tomorrow.
The night consisted of caramel corn, puppy chow,
choc. chip cookies, and fudge!
What a night.
Adler is already excited to deliver the goods tomorrow.
And to top it off.....here's Luke making his fudge
after making a trip to Target for a
few ingredients I forgot! ooops.
Ohh gosh, what a hubby....he's so funny.
Look at him!
Who smiles like that and makes fudge?! Haha
