Mess


Boys: Mommy, mommy look what we did!
Me: What did you do?
Boys: We took every toy in the play room and threw them all into a big pile!
Me: Great.... (is this as deep as their creative minds go? Yikes!) :)

No-Bobs


Last night the boys and I were looking at their baby pictures. We started with Jacob and I told him "that was when you were BORN". After a few minutes Noah said "mommy, I want to see pictures of me when I was BORING"! :)
A newborn once? Yes. Boring? Never!!!

Our "star"

Jacob is "star of the week" at school this week so we had to put together a poster board "showcasing" him. I thought you might enjoy! I love that on his list of "likes" he made a point to add "taking showers". Such a proud mom moment! I wonder if that will last through his teen years?!

Halloween

My two super-heroes. Maybe they could use their "super powers" to give themselves good attitudes and cheerful hearts! :)

Here's the crew - darth, spiderman, superman, chicka chicka boom boom tree and a pumpkin.
Brian had to work late so I was the pumpkin carver this year. Once again, my craft skills, well, not so much... :) But the boys loved their pumpkins (the fish is Noah's and the face is Jake's) so that's all that mattered. Until next year.... (for the halloween posts. I will have more post sooner than that!).

Field trip

Jacob's school went on a field trip today to a farm/pumpkin patch. Since I volunteered to help, Noah was able to come with. The theme was "Noah's Ark" so everyone had to dress up as an animal from the ark. Noah wore his monkey costume from last year and Jacob got a home-made tiger outfit. I definitely did not get my mom's craft skills! At least in pre-school kids think that any costume is really cool! On friday night they are going to be spiderman and superman (in which costume Noah is currently napping!), so stay tuned for more pictures. :)

Brothers

We asked the boys, on their birthdays, what they appreciate about eachother.
Noah's answer: "I like it when Jacob sits on my head"
Jacob's answer: "I like Noah because he loves me and SOMETIMES he is nice to me"
Isn't the sweet, simple love of a child so refreshing?!
