Isn't he cute!

I know it has been a while since I last updated and I will post Easter pics as soon as I download them, but I found this picture of Michael and thought everyone would enjoy it. I think I'll save it for black mail when he is older! He's a chip off the old block isn't he!

Mudkins

Tonight Matthew went over to the neighbors house to play. I walked over to ask Jennifer if it was okay and she wanted to show me their new camper. Well Jacob and Matthew went to the backyard and Jennifer and I were in the driveway looking at the camper. About that time Miranda said Mom you need to come see what Matthew has done. Jennifer and I looked at each other and thought Oh No! We come around the corner and find them slinging mud and sand all over each other. Keep in mind that they keep a big brick on top of the sand box so they can't get into it, I guess they need a bigger brick. The things 3 year olds will get into. Jacob and Matthew are only 2 monthes apart in age so they get along really well. What else could we do but grab the cameras!

King of the Castle

After the bigs two go to school and Danny is at work this is how you will find Matthew getting ready for the day.

Is it evil Knevil?

No it is just Matthew. Today was warm and beautiful!!! We were outside almost all day. We went to the park and rode bikes then came home and the kids played in the yard while Danny did stuff with the camper and I started supper. Then I look outside to find Matthew setting up ramps to jump with his power wheels 4-wheeler. What age does the fear factor kick in? I think it missed Matthew! When going up it with all four wheels became boring he shifted it so that he would lean on two wheels! He scares me! Do emergency rooms offer frequent flyer mileS?

A Tree

To the average person driving by the house one might notice the big pine tree in the front yard. But take a step back and look at it from a little boys eyes and it become the best hide out ever!

Snow and Snow and More Snow

Will this winter ever end?!?!?! The kids have been driving me crazy! Here are some pics of our last snow! We ended up with a total of 6+inches. The kids have loved all the snow. Me not so much. I love the fact that I am fortunate enough to be able to stay home with the kids, but when they are stuck inside because of snow, somedays I rethink it. But then we have a blast in the snow and I am once again grateful. And for once Danny was home to enjoy the fun. After playing in the snow we went in and made snow ice cream YUMMY!

-15

Yes thats right I have lost 15 pounds since the mid of Jan. Danny got me an elliptical for Christmas and it took me a while to muster up to the thought of actually using it, and now I am seeing its benefits. My goal is to need a new swim suite by summer. Right now I am setting small goals and rewarding myself for them. I will set my long term goal and reward later. I hope by starting to post about my weight loss journey it will keep me motivated. So Yeah for me!
