Too Cool!!!!

This boy is the cutest thing to ever walk the planet!!  He has SUCH a fun little personality and is so sweet!!  Q had put a bandaid on an owee she had gotten and T wanted one too so I put one on his frohead and he wouldn't let me take it off...pretty sure it was there for 2 days straight =)  He found his sunglasses and was oh so excited to wear them!!  Love him!

A few "Tytan'isms" for you...

Me: "Did you know you're my favorite boy"
Tytan: "no"
Me "Am I your favorite mommy"
Tytan "no"
Me "who is"
Tytan "Daddy" =)

The other morning when B was leaving for work he was saying by to them and Tytan says "Peace out Dad"...it was pretty dang funny =)  And when we were at the box later that week Brandon said "what's up" to a guy that walked in and Tytan repeated it "What's up Ivan"...it was so dang cute!!!!

Whenever you ask him to stop doing something or if he just gets frustrated he will say "Ah, Dane It" it's way cute and way funny!!!

Lately at bed time he doesn't want to go to sleep so I have to tell him over and over again to settle down and hold still...he will growl and say "OH TAY"



He even put them on his head like Daddy wears them =)

Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day was FUN!!!  B had to work...but it's not like we are big celebraters or anything so no biggie.  The kids had heart shaped pancakes for breakfast with strawberries and powdered sugar...Fantastic! =)
Then we got dolled up in our Valentine attire...and took some fun pics


Silly Faces



More silly faces =)

We made valentine hearts for Daddy


And we made cookies to take to Daddy...it was a fun filled very valentiney kind of day - good times!!!  Love these kiddos and love B!!! =)

Playing in the Snow

The day after it snowed it wasn't way freezing and I thought I would attempt to be a semi-good wife and shovel the driveway...so the kids got bundled up and we went outside...they liked it until Tytan took his gloves off to play with the snow and then his hands were FREEZING and that was the end of it...but the driveway looked fantastic I must say =)
Q was having lots of fun making foot prints all over the yard =)



poor little dude was FREEZING!!!  We went inside and warmed up!! =)  Good times!

Big Boy Undies...and NO BOTTLE!!!!

Look who has been wearing big boy undies for 2 weeks now!!  Yup - it's true...and he has been doing GREAT!!  He has had a few accidents of course...but is doing fabulous!!  He loves his undies...he spends a lot of the time opening up the little flap in the front and sticking his dingy through it...he thinks he's pretty tricky!  With the warmer weather lately...his favorite thing to do is potty in the rocks...or anywhere outside. =)  The other day at crossfit I asked him if he needed to go potty...he said no.  Then I turned back around and his pants were down and he was peeing off the little deck onto the sidewalk =)  Brandon kind of looked at me like "are you really just going to let him do that"...yup, I surely am...if he needs to go I'm not going to stop him and/or move him in the process =)  And Q is quite the cheerleader when he goes potty in the toilet...it's awesome!!! =) 
The fire hat is a new addition to pretty much every outfit...I thought we were going to have to wear it to church one week but we did sneak out of the house without it and he was fine...honestly though - he had to have it everywhere.  To the store, to the box, sometimes he would want to wear it to bed...and in the tub =)   It got stepped on and cracked and he hasn't loved it as much since...pretty sure B will get him a new one from work =)
ALSO...we have been bottle free for 2 months now!!!  It was kind of rough at first but then everything was fine...we got him a soft sippy and he calls that his baba.  He won't drink milk out of the sippies but he really likes juice and water now =)  He is such a stink'n cute little thing!!  Love him to pieces!!!!! 




Q was VERY proud of him for going in the potty chair...it was adorable!!  She is such a GREAT big sis!!!  He was pretty happy with himself too =)

My Sis and her family are hoping to Adopt Again!

This is my sister Autumn, her husband James and their son Carter.  They are hoping to have the opportunity to adopt again.  They are such a loving family and have had an amazing journey through adopting Carter and they really hope to be able to have another baby in their home and allow Carter the opportunity to have a sibling and to be parents again.  Please look at their blog and read about them...they are AWESOME!!

Look alike?

The other morning this is what I woke up to...Tytan dressed up in Q's stuff...it was pretty funny!!  Q obviously helped him and he was SO excited to be running around in all her stuff...

 I had Q put it on just so I could compare the two pics and when B got home I had him look at them and he didn't even realize that Tytan was in one pic and Q was in the other - it was funny!!  Love these crazy kids!!


New Snow Clothes

The kids got new snow gear...Tytan didn't have anything and Q's was getting too small - so they both got new stuff!!!  They LOVE it!!  They were so excited to try it on and wanted to wear it around the house!!!  So fun!!!  Then they just had to wait for it to snow again =)




Thanks Vicki for Tytan's stuff!
