My other twins

Caleb came downstairs with Ethan wearing matching clothes, he said they were going on a walk. He went out and came back in after a couple of minutes and said that they got ALL THE WAY to the mailbox... long walk, huh?

Taste of Parenthood

Ethan fell asleep in Caleb's bed tonight... when I went up to check on him, I found this!! I had to take a picture because this is what he does to me EVERY time he ends up in our bed. Caleb got a little taste of parenthood. :)

My Cleaning Team

A couple of weeks ago, I had the whole family pitch in with cleaning the house and we had it done in a couple of hours (takes me all day alone) so I decided this was our new way of cleaning. Here are the 3 older boys with their cleaning weapons. :)

Duplo Read & Build House Party

I was selected for a Lego Duplo- Read and Build House Party. My kit came in today and Ethan LOVES the product! It comes with a cute little book that includes instructions to make objects to go with the story (this one is a farm theme). He played with it forever!! I guess I will have to get him some of the others.

New Respect :)

Jeremy decided to design a house plan with my software. He  said he had no idea how hard it was and was even more impressed with the floor plans I have drawn now that he has tried it himself. :)

Tent Beds

These tent beds were my brothers when he was a little boy. We only had 1 of them that Caleb used... my mom gave us the second one when we were there last week. Fun Memories. :)

Hanging out!

The Harwell's and Jones' came over to hang out tonight. The adults play board games and the kids play upstairs. I don't know who has more fun!

Matching Booties

We put Ethan and Ashlyn in matching diapers tonight so we could take a picture of them together. Melissa and I chased them around the room forever trying to get a good picture. She finally gave them her iPhone and they laid still (kicking ourselves for not thinking of that sooner) Aren't they cute!

Murder Mystery Dinner Theater

Tonight, we went to an 80's theme Murder Mystery Dinner Theater with the Jones', Harwell's, and Morris'. Nicole and Brian were chosen as suspects and had to do a little acting. It was hilarious! Nicole aka Muffy ended up being murdered. She was "stabbed" in the stomach and staggered around the room FOREVER before finally hitting the ground on stage! HA!

Goodbye Friends! :(

Tonight we had a going-away party for 2 families... the Jones' and Terrebonnes. The Jones' are headed to VA and the Terrebonnes are going to GA. We had a really good turnout, but I didn't think to take a picture until after a lot of people left the party. These 2 families are going to be missed SOOOO MUCH!!! I hate goodbyes!

Grandma and the Boys

We are heading back home from Grandmas house today, so we had to get a picture. Man, the boys all look so big!!

Little Fish

Ethan was not a fan of the water until this week. Now he swims around like a little fish and LOVES to jump in off the side.

Family Golf Game

The kids have found a new golf game on the ipods/iphones that we can all play together. It's a lot of fun but I get beat every time!! They have a lot more practice.

Family Jump

Getting the kids to pick up their knees when they jump turned out to be impossible. This is the best picture we got. :) Fun times!

Swimming with the Cousins

My sister, Mandy, and her 2 kids (Warren- 17 and Michael- 5) came over to visit at my mom's house today. They swam ALL DAY and had so much fun together. I wish we saw them more often.

Road Trip!

Today, we are driving to Arkansas to visit my mom. Jeremy let the kids pack in their own suitcases so it looks like we are taking a TON!!

Finished Cardinals Room

Caleb's room is done and he comes home later today. I hope he likes it!! The pallet shelves are on the opposite wall... they turned out GREAT! The bed and picture covered up a lot of the baseball wall, but you can still see a little of it.

Box Camping

Matthew and I were playing Ping Pong in the garage when Andrew and Ethan came out to hang out. They came up with this little hideout. Ethan loves doing stuff with his big brothers and they all love including him ... most of the time. :)

Baseball Wall

Yesterday, we got the room painted and today I am working on a baseball wall (another Pinterest idea). I let Ethan "help" a little... he at least got the stitch sticker on the right wall.

Changing Table Nap

After I changed Ethan's diaper for his nap, he decided he wanted to sleep on the changing table. I didn't think it would last, but decided to see how long he would lay there. I sat in the chair in his room and he fell asleep after a couple minutes. :) Don't worry, I moved him to his bed before I left the room. :)

Pallet Shelves

Caleb asked for a "room makeover" for his birthday. He loves the St Louis Cardinals and wanted to switch out the snowboarding stuff that I picked out to something he liked. We decided to do it this week while he is at camp (Centrifuge). We started today with prepping the room and making these shelves. I found the idea on Pinterest, you just cut the ends off of a FREE pallet and add a bottom. We are going to paint them red tomorrow.

Birthday Golf

Tomorrow is Fred's birthday so they came up for lunch and then him, Jeremy, and Caleb went to play golf. I love that Caleb is old enough to hang with his dad and granddad. :)

New Sandals

Yoshi chewed Ethan's sandals to shreds (surprise, surprise), so we went to Kohls today to get him some new ones. I showed him several different pair, but he decided he liked these the best (no, I didn't show him these!) He loves Dora AND they light up, so of course he wanted them! Broke the poor kids heart when I went with a boring brown pair meant for BOYS!

Brooks Plan 2.0

We had the Brooks plan done and ready to go and they decided to start over to cut a few things out. Courtney has come over the past few night and we have 2.0 ready to send to the architect. It's been a really long process and I know she is dying to get started. Hopefully it won't take much longer!

Fireworks

There is a fireworks ban in Clarksville because of the hot weather and no rain here. Since we live in the county, it was just a suggestion. :) Some friends of ours worked a fireworks tent, so Jeremy loaded up on fireworks (which we never buy!!) The kids (and dads) had a good time playing with them. Ethan wasn't a fan and hid in the garage. :(

Pulling Teeth!

Paige lost one of her front teeth at tumbling camp today and was wiggling the other one on the way home. I had to stop for gas and she asked me if I could pull it while we were at the gas station. We decided to play a trick on Melissa, so I called and told her that Paige got kicked in the mouth at camp and both of her front teeth came out. Melissa couldn't believe they didn't call her so I told her it happened right before I got there. Then she asked if Paige was freaking out!! We let her believe it till we got to their house, then I showed her the video that Matthew took of me pulling the one in the car. Haha!!

Tumbling Camp

The twins are attending Tumbling Camp at American Twisters this week. This is a picture of them with one of their instructors today. They had a great time and can't wait to go back tomorrow!

SHMILY

For as long as I can remember, Jeremy and I have left little notes different places that simply say "SHMILY." It stands for "see how much I love you." Today, when I opened my Bible to the scriptures from our Sunday School lesson, I found the note right on the verses, so I assumed he moved it there this morning. When I asked him about it, he said that he didn't and the date on it is from February. I remember finding it then, today was just a bonus. :)
