Random Happenings While Hanging at Home!

I just thought I'd post some recent pics of the boys - we've been hanging at home at lot - I haven't really ventured out with both boys since the arrival of Grayson. Its tough hauling both of them around. Especially since Grayson hates his carseat. He screams the minute he gets in it until he is out of the car. Its like he somehow instinctively knows when he's being put in his car seat - its time to scream. Car rides are fun!! Although we did venture out into our new neighborhood today - although it is extremely muddy! But Jack loves the puddles - I got him some rubber boots - so cute - they are fish rubber boots so they have eyes and a mouth and a fin! There is a park just across from our house so we played there and jumped in the many puddles. Grayson in his carseat/stroller - of course screamed for a bit but finally fell asleep.

We are loving and enjoying our new house. I love the space. Jack gets so much energy out just running from the kitchen to the living room. And we have created a jumping area for him in the basement with a mattress and cushions from the couches. He jumps off the couches into the mattress, or slides on the cushions or we make "houses" (his new favorite word).

Dave is off to San Diego for a couple days on Sunday. We have a photobooth association meeting. I am sad I have to miss it - it would be fun - well not fun but informative!!

I have just finished reading this book. I absolutely encourage everyone to read it. It is amazing. It is a fast read. I believe the author is Mormon (Glenn Beck)!? Its an amazing true story! How one little choice can change the direction of your life! Its a story about forgiveness and redeption, etc. Very interesting read. Go to your library and get it - or buy it and pass it on - so worth it!

Enjoy the pics!





(this one below cracks me up. We had had McDonalds for lunch and I went to put Grayson upstairs to bed and Jack was playing in the kitchen. I saw the fries on the table and thought - he is going to pull those down but then dismissed the thought and thought he is distracted with other stuff. 5 minutes later as I come downstairs, I see Jack on the floor with his fries which he obviously pulled off the table and his mcnugget sauce (not spilled!!) for dipping. Just sitting there hanging out - snacking!)
