My eater and my mess maker.

by M on February 15, 2010

I have a little piggy on my hands. Seriously. Does this child look like a newborn?

He is getting HUGE! He is eating 5 ounces every 2.5 hours!

At this rate…he’ll be on the fast track to obesity.

Especially if ALL he’s gonna do between feedings is SLEEP!

Although I must admit…this is quite a comfy place to sleep…over looking the pond.

Daddy will have him doing crossfit before he’s FIVE if he keeps this eating pattern up. haha!

P, on the other hand, could care less about eating.

Well.

Unless it’s chocolate of course.

He is WAYYYY more interested in his new playroom.

I think he finds it strange that mommy doesn’t get mad when he has all his toys out.

And it’s true. I don’t.

It doesn’t even bother me when the room is a mess because that’s what it’s for!

OHHHH how much I love the new house!

I swear, I will get some pics up soon. Every time I go to take pics of the house I get side tracked by my two cute boys and start snapping pics of them. OOPS!

One BIG giant THANK YOU

by M on February 14, 2010

I can’t take all the credit for unpacking and organizing my house. I had a little help from my lovely friends Katie, Jenny, and Nina! BIG HUGE HUGS to you girls for all of your help! (And Nick too-Katie’s hubby)!

Of course I have to give a HUGE thanks to my parents too! I think my dad had all of our flat screen tv’s hung the same night we moved in. And if it weren’t for Gigi watching the boys…this mama would have gotten absolutely NOTHING accomplished!

I LOVE my family and friends!

What’s a boy to do.

by M on February 12, 2010

Besides help mommy pack.

Which as you can see was not all that helpful. But somehow P found a way to make it a game.

More importantly… what’s a boy to do with all this hardwood floor?

P has found his favorite thing to do with it.

There will be absolutely no more…

by M on February 10, 2010

…OF THIS

…in the new house.

I’m being pretty anal about trying to keep things clean.

Sorry P.

You will have to eat your spaghetti with a fork from now on.

Did I mention our new little man is growing like a weed?

He kinda has an attitude too.

Hmmm. Wonder where he gets that from?

This is his “bad attitude” look.

I’m just glad he isn’t using the middle finger here.

We have MOVED

by M on February 10, 2010

We have officially moved and we  have been without internet for WAY TOO LONG.

Finally today…we are reconnected.

I’ve been busy unpacking and organizing like a crazy woman. Right now I am home with both boys so I am making this short.

I plan to blog tonight. I can’t wait to share pics of the new house.

By they way. You know how much I like to use the exclamation point in my blogs…well…it’s not working on my keyboard right now.

Errr. O-well…at least I have internet.

T Minus 5 Days

by M on February 1, 2010

WARNING:  I may be NON existent on the blog this week. WE ARE OFFICIALLY MOVING ON SATURDAY (insert SCREAMMMMMMMMM)!

In my spare time (haha), I’ve been trying to pack up this house.

It’s a good thing that Gigi and P are such good buddies…because she has been entertaining him while I keep busy with house stuff.

And really…if it weren’t for her…he wouldn’t have gotten to play in the snow.

As you can see….

…he was having quite the time throwing snowballs at gigi.

Munchkin has been doing more of the same….you know…SLEEPING, POOPING, AND EATING.

But mostly pooping.

Oh. And some stretching.

Can someone wake me when it’s March…and my house is moved and organized?

House of Rose Movie Night

by M on January 29, 2010

….AND daddy picked out ALL BOY movies. Right now I am being forced to watch GI JOE??

Seriously.

These TWO were pretty excited.

Me.

NOT.SO.MUCH.

I guess I’m out voted now in this household these days.

And daddy must know what keeps boys attention…because these lil guys eyeballs are glued to the tv.

I have never seen Bentley so wide eyed.

I am pretty sure the second movie he rented is army related too. What a long night this will be for me.

…two and half year olds apparently LIKE to eat ramen noodles too.

P and his friend Mason spent quite some time eating their ramen noodles on the kitchen floor today.

I, of course, had to document the occasion. Because really. They were too cute.

They had a blast. Not to mention…they LOVED them some ramen noodles.

If you know anything about us…you know that we are firm believers in having our children sleep in their own beds.

 Nothing against people who don’t follow that same philosophy, but for us personally, we like to have our alone time and sleep in peace.

So far it has worked out nicely because P has always slept much better in his own bed. When he has slept in our bed (the few times we have allowed it)…he doesn’t really sleep much. In fact, he just tosses and turns and is never comfortable.

However, now that we have moved him to his BIG BOY bed (and he can move about on his own terms)…he thinks he needs to sleep by mommy. I haven’t given in. Because I know the second I do…there will be no turning back.

But I have to show you how he falls asleep each night…

…in the doorway of his room.

We have a rule: NO CROSSING THE “POLE” (aka the doorway)…and since our rooms are directly across from eachother, and he can see my bed from his doorway, he ALMOST never falls asleep in his actual bed…but instead in the doorway…just shy of the imaginary “pole” he is not to cross…so that he can see me.

He usually spends a good 30 minutes talking to me from there. “Hi mommy. What you doing mommy? You going nite nite mommy? Hi mommy.” And on and on and on until he talks himself to sleep.

Don’t worry, I don’t let him sleep in the doorway all night. When I know he’s good and out…we move him to the bed.

My life consists of…

by M on January 25, 2010

…watching this cute lil guy sleep…

BUT MOSTLY…of PACKING ALL OF THESE BOXES! *SIGH*

As you can imagine, I’d much rather watch the lil guy sleep.
