First Egg Yolk!

silly man

One of the little man's new favorite things is to crawl alll around the house.  He tends to find the barstools halfway through his journey between the family room and kitchen.  Along the way the decides to play in them, like a jungle gym.  Here he is, being as silly as ever, posing for the camera, playing in his "jungle gym" aka, our barstools.

FOHAWK!

Every night as we are getting Thomas ready for bed we put lotion on his baby body and on his head.  Lately the ritual has included a quick spiking of the hair to create a baby fohawk!  Hilarious right!?!

Then while we were taking pictures of the cute little man and his fohawk Daddy decided to take pictures of our other child, LaLa and her crazy self barking at the camera's flash.  Our poor puppy dog, she is so no photogenic! HILARIOUS!!!

it started out civilized

then he had to start messing with her

then the crazy hilarious barking pictures began

Me cracking up about the dog!

how to sleep like a baby

Awww!!!  That's all I could think when I saw my little baby sleeping all curled up this morning with his head on the bumper like a pillow.  Too cute to not share!

Proof I know Roberto on the Bachelorette

These were taken about 1.5 years ago, pre pregnancy and baby at a State Farm event.  We came across these at work today so I had my boss email them to me and then I had to share them :)

My favorite toy

THE BASKET!!

No matter what toys we pull out of this basket, never fails that he always goes right back to it.  Thomas loves to pull himself up on it and then he chews the side.  It grosses me out and I pull him away from him but he always goes right back to it and soon enough, he puts his mouth over the side and starts biting.  Hopefully there's nothing toxic in a woven basket :/

Crab Outfit!!

I stinking LOVE this CRAB OUTFIT!!!  It's navy and white=classic.  Terry cloth=comfy.  Sleeveless=Summer savy.  Plus oh soooo cute!!!  I just had to share because I'm in LOVE with this new outfit.  Thank you Gymboree for making this adorable outfit so Thomas could wear this and I enjoy looking at it :)

my sandals are the perfect compliment 

with my sister, LaLa 

LOL!!!  I'm such a HAM in this picture!

Play date with Drew

This past Friday my friend Abby had us have Drew over for a play date while she took her older son Evan to a special character breakfast.  Unfortunately Evan got sick on the way there and they couldn't go to the breakfast so we only had Drew for about an hour but we accomplished a lot during the time.  

We played for a few minutes...

...and then we went for a walk.

It gave me a quick glimpse into life with twins and/or two children.  I saw twins because Thomas and Drew are 3 weeks apart so Drew is almost 9 months and Thomas is just over 8 months.  It was more work, but I thought it was fun and I couldn't help but laugh at the way they were interacting.  Too cute!
