Boys Being Boys

 I found some random photos of the boys that I don't think have been posted yet.
We got Wyatt up onto Jack's old bike last weekend to try and get him to start riding with pedals.
 But it didn't last long. Even though he is growing out of the little red bike he still enjoys just pushing and coasting as opposed to pedaling. But I'm not surprised, none of our kids ever enjoyed anything with pedals.
 Wyatt would much rather paint with Daddy.
 I love his little face and that look of concentration.
 The final product is not too bad either!!
 I try hard not to force the boys to play together too much, so it's always nice to see them getting along. Wyatt would do just about anything Jack does.
 Hmmm, too many tablets and devises.
 Jason has been collecting these blocks over the past couple of years and the boys have really enjoyed building with them on the floor, but Jason took it to a new level by introducing a dice rolling game that they can incorporate the blocks and mini figures into.


 They are loving it!!
 And I just love this face! We spent an afternoon at the boy's school for their Fall Festival. They all had a great time and didn't want to leave. This is what Wyatt got with the tickets he earning playing games.
 A solider at heart.
 Several weeks ago we attempted a hike at the Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield.  The boys seemed to have a lot of fun so I think we'll go back and do it again and attempt to get farther.


 I might have posted this one already but this is Wyatt's new Angry Birds bedding.
 This kid insists on still wearing his Spiderman costume from two years ago. He looks more like the Hulk bursting out of it than Spiderman.
Making the most of a sunny afternoon waiting for the brothers to get off the bus!

Having a Great Visit with Aunt Delly

I know it's been a VERY long time since I've last posted, but it's hard when you have company in town. Plus, I've been especially exhausted this past week. Jack get's so excited when we have visitors that he gets even crazier than normal! September should be fun when we have Daddy, Granny and Grandma in town. I've been continuously changing up our great room bookshelves, so I thought I would post a photo for you to see. If anyone has more ideas on how to make it look better, let me know. These are some pictures of Jack at gymnastics. He has gotten so much better at this club. They do a lot more strengthening stuff than the old place. Plus they have an older boys class so they don't just teach girly stuff at this age. It's been fun to see him do so well. Of course, a lot of time he still goofs around, trying to fall off stuff, but for the most part he's pretty good at staying on task. Last week they did the monkey bars and he LOVED it and was...

My Week

 Jason left last Saturday (the 4th) for his two week Army Annual Training and we sent him off with a nighttime treat before he left.  I love this photo of my boys, as they all look so happy and the small ones look so grown up - especially Ethan.  We couldn't pry that cup of frozen yogurt away from him!!  And, as usual, when Jason leaves all hell breaks loose.  Tuesday night we were all getting ready for bed and I was getting Ethan and Wyatt out of the bathtub when Wyatt slipped and banged his chin on the edge.  Normally Wyatt gets out first but this time I got Ethan and that just drove him crazy.  He was jumping up and down and as soon as I told him to stop he slipped.  I thought he had just cut his lip or his gums as I only saw blood but then he titled his head up and I saw his chin - too much of the inside of the chin.  I got him dried off, and kept a washcloth to his chin but knew I needed to get him to the ER.  But the last th...

Master Closet Overhaul

 We have this ridiculously large walk-in closet in our master bedroom and over time it has been overtaken with STUFF. So I decided I was tired of looking at the mess and it was time to clean it out and up.  Take a look...  I can't believe it went from this... To this!  I love walking in here now and actually find myself looking for reasons to go into my closet.  Along with just weeding out old clothes and items I no longer wore or needed (you should see the pile of stuff that was donated!) I made some changes to the room too.   One of them was my shoe racks. I've long wanted a tall shoe rack to go alongside the built in shelves but I knew it would never get off my husband's to-do list so I took matters into my own hands!!  It's not exactly what I had envisioned but it works and I'm happy with it. Thanks Target for the shelves.  Over the past few years I have developed a deep love for scarves and now own several....
