Brock-a-pult

The proof that the boys are going to like dangerous activites is...their favorite pasttime is to be swung around in blankets by Mommy and Daddy. They were having so much fun doing it together, and it was fun to watch their faces light up!!

O Christmas Tree

We put up our Christmas tree today and the boys put up the window clings (I was surprised they actually lasted in the tote from last year). The boys even wore their Christmas hats for part of the morning; Riley needs a new one, though, since his still says "My First Christmas" haha!! The boys were excited to come across their Christmas gobes, and to make the day extra authentic, we got our first little dusting!!

Happy Thanksgiving







Surprisingly enough...this is the first holiday dinner I have cooked completely on my own! I think it came out pretty well, though. I tried a new seasoning for the turkey, made Adam a pumpkin pie, and made the boys and I our famous creamy pumpkin pie!!

Unconventional Cleaning


Riley is always getting mad when I sweep or mop since he can't be held or hold the broom or mop himself, and is always trying to get into my mop bucket, SO...I hatched a way to keep him out of my dirt pile and mop bucket and he is happy because he is with me and is helping. It is quite a workout and very unconventional, but it worked!!

And, Mr. Jealous couldn't be left out so although I cannot lift him and carry him in it on my back he still got a turn to sit in it on the floor!!
