Splashfest!

Tyler wanted to get in the bath tub with Jason tonight (which NEVER happens) so I said sure, why not. I always thought it would be easier to bathe both boys at once, but found out today that it is not true! Instead of a calm bath for each of them, it was a wild and crazy splashfest! Not fun for mom. I think the bathtub is too small of an area to confine two wild boys! There was splashing, laughing, throwing toys, fighting, mysterious bubbles, screaming, water on the floor, 3 towels to bathe 2 boys, and a change of clothes for mom! I think that we will stick to separate baths :-)


Oh the joys of boys!

Could it really be snow??

We got a lot more snow than expected on Sunday morning. Tyler woke up and looked out his window and got so excited! He had his snow clothes on in no time and was ready to have some fun. The first snow fall of the season was complete with a snowman, snow angels, snow ball fight and of course, yellow snow! Jason liked the snow but was not a big fan of the snow boots, coat or gloves! We will have to work on that.




It is now 50+ degrees and all of the snow is gone, but it was fun while it lasted. Tyler wore his snow boots with shorts today!

Dinosaur Park

We went to the Dinosaur Park last week with some friends and had a great time, despite the freezing cold temperature!



The boys digging for bones.

I live in Rangely, Colorado

Tyler has been totally obsessed with going camping and to visit Grandma and Grandpa in Rangely, CO. If you ask him where he lives he will say, "Rangely, Cororado." He has had his bags packed and outside in the garage for weeks!! (It is really annoying because he packs everything - clothes, toothbrush, pj's, lotion, shoes, etc, so when we go to find something we have to unpack his bags!). We finally decided that we better take the poor kid to visit Grandma and Grandpa "over the mountains" as Tyler refers to them as.


When playing in Grandpa's fishing boat got boring, Tyler made his own boat in the back yard.


Grandma found a fun house for the boys! For some reason Tyler thought it was warm enough to play outside without a shirt.

Snips and snails and puppy dog tails...

We found a leaf bug in our garage and Jason did not hesitate to pick it up. He LOVED it so much that he carried it around all morning. He would let it crawl on the wall, grass, rocks, steps, or his leg and then pick it up again. I was afraid that he was going to squeeze it to death, but instead, I came back outside from getting popsicles and Jason was saying, "ut oh, ut oh". He had pulled the head off!









I absolutely LOVE his face in these pictures!

Pumpkin Patch II

We went to a different pumpkin patch a few days later with Tyler's preschool group. It was tons of fun! There were lots of fun things for the kids to do, including a fun hay ride to pick out a pumpkin!


Most of the preschool kids


A huge slide that even I was a little scared of when we got to the top!

Pumpkin Patch

We went to Pack Farms pumpkin patch while my family was here for Tiffany's birthday. The boys had a great time playing in the hay maze with Grandma and chewing on straw with Grandpa!








Everyone loves Grandma!





Boobs or butt?? You decide!

September pictures

I have been horrible about keeping my blog up to date. Here is another marathon posting of pictures from the last three weeks, in no particular order.



Jason LOVES popsicles. He can be screaming and I will ask if he wants a popsicle and he stops crying immediatly! He spent most of the summer climbing up the front steps saying, "more, more".


Tyler's train


Cori's birthday :-)


Grandma gave Jason the bowl after I made muffins.


"This is sooo good."




"Forget the wisk, just give me the bowl."
