Life...

We haven't been doing much of anything lately so that's why the long pause in posting. Here are some pictures..

A few days ago we had sun!!! You really don;t know how much you muss it until you see it again. We went to the park that day and as we were getting in the car Travis looked down at his hand and then looked at me with this bug smile on his face and said, "mom look...it's the sun." He was so excited! I just laughed. 
My children have been getting up before me lately and are very quiet about it too. One morning I woke up to the car alarm, Tyler had found my keys and pushed the panic button. It wouldn't shut off with the remote so I had to go outside and put the keys in. I wasn't a happy mom that morning. Then a few days later I woke up to the door opening. Travis got my keys and was trying to open the car to get one of his toys out of the car. I went down stairs and just had to laugh! He was wearing shorts, a t-shirt and sandals but he took the time to find a beanie to put on his head. 
Lately the boys have been very interested in baking. They love to help pour and mix and wait by the oven until the first batch comes out. 

This video was just last night. Joe had to drive over to Washington to take care of some family stuff so it's just me and the boys for a few day. Tyler has yet to sleep through the night (I blame myself). He usually wakes up and just comes into bed with us but last night he was wide awake at 10:30!! He wouldn't stop crying and once I got him to settle down he finally asked to watch Incredibles. It's the cutest thing to hear him talk.

So funny! I love the one of Travis with his beanie! :) I can't believe Tyler talks so clearly! Way cute! Hang in there until Joe gets back!

Mary, don't know if you remember me. We were good friends when we were 10yrs old. We made a club with purple shirts and puff paint. I found your brother Chad on facebook and he led me to you. You look great! What a cute family. So, excited to keep in touch. My blog is www.peek-a-boostuff.blogspot.com

I can't believe he can talk! It's so cute the way he says incredibles. It's so much fun to see how you and your family are doing. I think your boys are so cute and when you tell stories of Travis I smile. I always remember his laugh and that puts me in a good mood.
P.S. The Beanie...how priceless.

Tyler's got a cute little voice. And that is too funny about Travis getting into the car.
