Shampoo Mohawks and Bubble Beards

These guys just kill me. They have been soooo sweet to each other these past few days. I am so proud of my boys. With Cody out of town this week, they have really acted like the "men of the house"...little bubble-bearded men.

Whenever I give them a bath it reminds me of being a little kid and taking a bath with my cousins. For us (3 girls) it was shampoo mohawks and bubble bikinis!



By the way, if you are wondering about our Disney World pics, scroll down and click older posts. I dated them so they'd show up on the days we were there.

eighty pictures for one keeper

I took my kids, all 3 of them, out to get some nice group pictures. I came prepared with my bribes--marshmallows, Phineas and Ferb fruit snacks and a trip to the park afterward. Maybe for normal kids this would be more than enough. Some kids don't even need bribes. Make no mistake. These are NOT normal kids. Well, see for yourself in the "gag reel" below. The keeper is the last one (Black and White).




So it was about this time that I decided to take the baby out of the mix thinking it might help the situation. Here's what followed.

Who tooted?


I'll take that one.

Two down, one to go

We love our kids, but we love having a little time at night after they are all asleep to just be together...even if it's just for a few minutes before one of us falls asleep.

Kissing Booth

The boys are always kissing on their baby sister and I have been thinking she should start a kissing booth. That's what gave me the idea for these.
I intentionally gave the images a little grit and vintage look.











Happy Valentine's Day!

Magic Kingdom

The fireworks show at Magic Kingdom was amazing. Well, I should say the projection show displayed on the castle was amazing. The fireworks may very well have been amazing but we couldn't see much of them. About 15 minutes before the show started, we found a great spot with a clear view of the castle WITH seats to rest our weary legs! Score! The castle acted as a screen for some really cool effects. Then the fireworks shot up into the sky...right behind some trees to our left. No wonder those seats were available.

Polkadots a la Minnie

Annabelle told me her favorite Disney character right now is Minnie Mouse so Gigi made her the cutest little polkadot pillowcase dresses for the occasion.

Feeling at Home in the Animal Kingdom

We had a great first day at Disneyworld. We kicked it off with a Goofy breakfast where we met Goofy, Donald, Daisy, and Mickey. We saw the Lion King show where Kyle was one of 3 kids who got to go up front and dance. We roared at dinosaurs, and went on a safari. We love this place!


Goofy meet Goofy, uh, I mean Kyle.
