Being Silly and Having Fun

That's pretty much what my boys do everyday: act silly while having fun!!  Isn't that what childhood's all about?!?


 Yes I actually dressed the boys in Aggie gear (without Josh saying anything!!) the day they played in the Cotton Bowl!!  Aren't I a good wife?!? ;)
 Having fun with his friend, JT, at Chuck-e-Cheese
 Such a guapo little boy!
 I love Reid's expression here!!
 They were having Show and Tell with Reid's art project.


 One warm January day, the boys insisted on wearing head gear.  Reid chose Daddy's and actually wore it to the Y like this!!!!
 Daddy and the boys like to make pancakes on the weekend.  Here they made a C for Connor...
 And an r for Reid
 Another guapo little boy!!
 They wanted to watch a show on my bed.  Instead of spreading out, they like to sit right next to each other.
We all took turns being sick lately.  Josh and I had the flu, Connor was sent home with fever and one night we had to start the breathing treatments with Reid.  Thankfully we are all well again!!
Here they are at the doctor's office being very good for Mommy!!

 As you can tell, there is no lack of personality from these silly boys!!


One night after bath, Josh wanted to play with the boys, but they just wanted to have movie night with Daddy!
Love these SILLY memories!!

Packing Peanuts

If you ever receive a box in the mail full of packing peanuts, hide/discard/get rid of it BEFORE your kids see it.  Otherwise this could happen:
 OMG!!!! These were EVERYWHERE and stuck to EVERYTHING!!  I have vacuumed numerous times and am still finding the pieces not only in the den but all over the house!
 Even though our friends in Dallas were blessed with snow, we still haven't had any.  One morning there was ice on the ground so the boys put on their snow boots and jackets and made "iceballs" rather than snowballs!

Christmas #4

Between being sick and traveling, I am just getting around to posting this.  A big shout out to Mimi for taking care of us and disinfecting our home while we were all sick!! 


We wrapped up our whirlwind of Christmas celebrations in Livingston.  As usual, everyone was very generous and we had a great time! 

Our Family (not sure why this looks blurry??)

Having fun playing with Uncle Jason



 Mimi and Papa Jud with their little boys
 Batman!!!
 Reid was trying to take a picture or me taking a picture!
 Daddy showing off his new Astros gear.
 Connor and his new cool helicopter
 Showing off his new John Deere hat with Mimi
 And their new Baylor hats to keep warm!

A firetruck and helicopter from cousin Ross and Vicki was probably one of their favorite gifts!
 Working hard playing Wii
 The boys were going exploring in the "forest" next to the house.
 Playing baseball
  The boys are really into wrestling and tackling.  No one is safe...

Showing off some of the gifts Uncle Cannon gave them.
 Arrrgh!
 There is a REALLY great train display during Christmastime in Livingston and its FREE! The boys looove it!!



 In Texas, we don't get too many white Christmases.  SO...we get cotton balls and have our own snowball fight!!





 

We made Papa Jud a back rub shirt.  It says "Welcome to Papa Judsville" complete with a gas and fire station, park and of course Whataburger!!
 The boys drive their cars along the roads of Papa Judsville





 
 Taking a piggyback ride from Mimi


And on the way home, this is how we roll.  The back of the car packed full of presents, a movie for the boys and quite time for Mom and Dad!!
