Life as we know it: in cell phone pics

Today was Tuesday.  Let’s just say that the afternoon followed the pattern of the crazed Tuesdays of the past.  Lots of potty accidents, lots of exhaustion, and lots of chaos.  The funniest part of today was William asking me if he can get back inside my tummy (like before he was born.) 

No, William. 

Why not, Mommy? 

It’s a one way ticket, buddy.  (says Daddy)

One of our friends is pregnant, and my boys are OBSESSED with talking about it.  Anyway, I have a million pictures to share, but I will start with some from my phone, for tonight . . .

Lately, we have been doing some of this . . . you know, having a Potty Party!  Who doesn’t want to celebrate Memorial Day with a Potty Party?

Yes, I bribe my children with special treats if they use the potty.  I am not ashamed. (these next two are not from my cell phone)

We also had a visit from Dr. Hudson over the weekend . . . he has a special skill of finding your “heart beep” in your hand.IMG_6438

We did a bit of snoozing . . .

And then we got all dressed for our time at the rivah:

My boys on the deck . . . (well, these aren’t from my cell phone either)IMG_6468

And Anna with her new best friend, Roger . . . I think she is saying look at me, Roger, LOOK AT ME!      IMG_6454

They became fast friends! IMG_6458 IMG_6460

I’m pretty sure they would have taken a snooze together if we’d let them! IMG_6466

This is one of the best pictures of my rascals.  Daddy took it on his phone.  I love it.  LOVE IT.IMG_0287

Since we’ve been home, we’ve been playing IMG_0296

And spending lots of time outside (Sister scratched her cheek and nose.  I had to ground her for doing it.)

And, we love the pool . . . IMG_0320

Although having water in it is much more fun . . . the boys started what we’re calling Swimming School this week at a pool in the area.  Today, they went to the bottom and picked up a toy.  I COULD NOT BELIEVE MY EYES.  It was amazing.  I am going to try to get a video of them in action.  I have two little fish on my hands!IMG_0321

Sissy is exercising her chunky legs more and more . . . I just love those thighs!  Although, let me be clear:  I will cry myself a RIVER when this child begins to move on her own.  It will be a sad day for me.  Life as I know it will change.  Big Time.IMG_0325

And, her cheeks aren’t bad either! IMG_0331

I love this little lady! IMG_0332

Nighty Night!

It's so funny that they're fascinated with babies being in bellies! JR is going through the same thing -- I guess because we have so many ladies at church who are expecting. He's gone so far as lifting up my shirt and trying to crawl inside. What funny boys.

I love your comment about crawling. First time around moms are all in a race over who will crawl first. Second time around....we know better.
