Bitter and Sweet

Last week Kellie and I met at the library for "toddler time." The kids were so cute trying to sing the nursery songs and attempting the actions that went with. Our two babies, Hannah and Maddie, just stared and tried to take it all in. They all had a blast during playtime. Hunter and Hallie preferred the little canvas tubes they could crawl through, while Hannah and Maddie went wild with a piece of paper. Kellie and I had fun catching up and laughing at our kids. What a perfect day...right? It totally was until Kellie got home and found they had been robbed while we were gone! Why are people so nasty? I don't know if it was the best or the worst luck that Kellie decided to go out that morning. Eww, it just makes me so mad that rotten things happen to the best people.
To end this post on a good note, this is Hunter refusing to get ready for bed.

That's right. He's singing "Ring Around the Rosies." He was doing this all by himself for 10 minutes while I was chasing him around with a pair of pj's. I finally decided this was way cuter than going to bed on time and grabbed the camera. Hunter, stop growing up so fast! Mommy can't get enough of these precious moments.

Random, Really Random

So things are pretty blah around here. We haven't done much in the last month. These are some random pics of our day to day boring lives.



It's a bird, it's a plane, it's....Captain Brazier?

This is one of our new found activities to help us escape our house so we don't lose our minds being there all the time. Hurray for Thomas the Train at our local Barnes and Noble.



Another escape from boring winter is swim class. Hunter loves it and will drag the swim bag to the door and say, "simming?" He's getting pretty good at his kicks and paddles and it's a chance to hang out with some buddies.




This little munchkin with the nummy cheeks his Hunter's pal Hannah. She comes to our house once a week. The clippy in her hair is my attempt at a ponytail. Ooo little girls are so fun. Mabeybe we'll get Hunter a sissy one day.

PJ Party

Friday night we got to have a PJ party with our pal Makenna. Hunter and Makenna are just a few weeks a part and are the cutest little buddies. I got the biggest kick out of watching them play silly games they made up. Talk about "Monkey See, Monkey Do." Super cute kiddos.
This was their favorite game, running up and down the stairs. These two probably climbed the stairs at least 132 times that night. Then they would sit at the top and poke their heads around the corner so that I could just barely see them, squeal and hide from me again. Repeat. So funny.Hunter and Makenna have some healthy appetites. Here they are sharing a midnight (more like 8 o'clock) snack of goldfish. They were good sharers.
Apparently goldfish weren't enough. They both asked for an apple out of the bowl on my kitchen table. Hunter doesn't usually like apples, so I figured they thought the apples were balls and they wanted to play with them. Apples go bad pretty quick around here (we aren't the best fruit eaters) so I thought I might as well let them hold a couple. It wouldn't be a big deal if they got dropped on the tile and were no longer edible. Guess they were really into apples because they both immediatel dug their new little teeth right in. For a half an hour they sat and knawed on those little apples. Funny.
Thanks Ryan and Malissa for goin' out for the evening and lending us your cute little tot to keep our little tot entertained. What a fun, silly night!
