“Glow”

2012-03-20 004

Erik made Tyler a necklace with glow sticks, half a slinky, and another glow in the dark bracelet.

2012-03-20 007

Tyler wanted to go in the bathroom with the lights off to see it glow. “Glow, more-y glow” he says. He didn’t want to come out of there for a long time.

I took pictures in the dark with the flash – so we didn’t know what each picture would look like until after taking it.

Then they wanted to look at all the pictures we took while still in the dark bathroom. Silly boys :)

Hail

2012-03-19 015

Yesterday we had hail at 12:30, right as Adam and I came home from preschool. The day before he said he wanted to see snow. No luck with the snow...but we got hail. At least it's cold white frozen stuff that falls from the sky :)

My “big baby”

2012-03-19 004

I can never resist a cute sleeping picture.

And I can’t believe this baby is about to become a big brother in a week or two.

He says that he’s a “Big baby!” (in a deep voice like papa bear) and the baby in my tummy is Mommy’s “little baby” (in a squeaky high pitched voice).

Just a few more years til they fit ;)

In a effort to wear as much green a possible, Erik wore some of Adam’s pajama shorts. Can’t beat some green stripes right?

2012-03-17 008

Tyler wanted to wear these green sandals that are clearly much too big. The things my kids will do to get a little more green on themselves :)

Later, Tyler and Erik came outside to “help Daddy pull weeds.” Which apparently means putting on gardening gloves and then playing on the swing set.

Surprise baby shower

2012-03-13 007

I had a parent meeting for Adam’s preschool today…and SURPRISE! When I got there – it turns out is was a baby shower for me and another preschool mom.

2012-03-13 018

All the preschool ladies are so sweet! We came home with lots of new fun clothes and things. And 24 pairs of little socks! Oh, my ;) Plus a big box of hand me downs from one of the moms.

Now I just have to figure out where to put it all.

2012-03-13 011

Adam  and Tyler wanted to try out some baby hats.

2012-03-13 012

And then dance in them :)
