Grandparents Galore!

We were lucky this month & got visits from both sets of grandparents. The boys just love spending time with all 4 of them & I loved getting out and getting a little break - 2 WEEKENDS IN A ROW! How crazy is that?

Splish, Splash

We love the splashpad - thanks to our friends we have some pictures from a recent visit. Thanks Becky & Brooke for the pics!

Linc Update

(Yes, I'm on a blog role...)

So that update on Lincoln is that he is staying in his bed - although he wants to sleep with the light on which is a good compromise in my opinion. This picture was from yesterday and he was trying to keep the light out.

Ms. Kitty Stay, C.C. & Sharp Tooth Leave

Carter had made a sign for the front door - it states that Ms. Kitty should stay, and her cat friends (those who live with her at her house) C.C. (short for Cindy Crawford, because she has a mole on her face) & Sharp Tooth should leave because Carter does not want cat fights at our house. He must be traumatized by seeing the black cat & Ms. Kitty dual on our front porch a few weeks ago.

I sure hope the cats know how to read!

The Dentist

Look at my handsome dudes getting their teeth cleaned. They were SO good, making up for the first trip to the dentist that Carter and I took last year - the one in which he refused to open his mouth! Glad we've found a dentist that we can all agree on.

The 2 year, 9 month old theory

So, I've for approximately 26 months (since Carter turned 2 3/4 years) have believed in this theory. A friend had once told me that her daughter turned into a little devil at this age, and 3 months later, Carter followed suite - a theory born, in my head!

I've been watching for signs of this with Lincoln, and the other day when he was driving me nuts, consulted with the calendar to find that yes, indeed, children turn 3 earlier than their 3rd birthday, and 2 is a breeze compared to 3! Most of Lincoln's little behaviors are happening at nap time - thus the sleeping on the floor after passing out yelling that he isn't napping but napping he will do!

Here is to hoping that 3 is shorter lived with the 2nd child and that I'm a much wiser parent!

Sean has his own theory and that is that Lincoln was reincarnated from a dog and that is why he behaves the way he does - to each his own on theories, I suppose!

4th of July

Just a few pictures from the 4th of the parade, Carter's being freaked out by fireworks & some of my favorite little people!
