Bananas and King of the Mountain!

Today was the first time that Griffin had some bananas and I know that it may not look like it from the pic, but he hated them. This was the first food I have found that he would not eat. As you can see he is wearing much more than he ate. I had to take a picture of him with an awful look on his face and when I got the camera out, I got nothin but grins!
Parker and I went outside for a while today and it was a riot. I pulled him on the sled behind the golf cart and I think that people a mile away could probably hear him laughing. Then I introduced him to the game King on the Mountain, I love being a kid again!
Needless to say, I let him win!

And then inside for some Hot Cocoa!

Play Date and When I Grown Up!!!

These two munchkins have been asking their mothers if they can play together pretty much everyday for the last week or two. We thought maybe it was time to get them together. So, yesterday Lily and Sophia came over to play with the boys and they had a great time.
My brother-in-law is the Freshman coach for boys basketball at Unity. And tonight they played HC so a couple of us went to the game and got to see Chris in action. He did great but HC still beat by three. Sorry Chris! Parker loved seeing him in action and trying to figure out what was going on and who was ahead.

He loved it so much that he played for a little bit after the game and now wants to be a "Basketball Player" when he grows up.

Sleep, Snow and Happy Birthday!!!

So, I am thinking growth spurt or something b/c I was sitting right next to this little munchkin and looked over and this is what I saw. Then I looked at the clock and realized it was only 6:45pm. Just over an hour before beditme. Crazy, but cute as ever!
While Griffin was falling asleep inside, my other boys were on the go. Jeff took Parker for a snowmobile ride and to build a fort in one of our big snow piles. Jeff becomes a little kid again when he is with the boys. I love to see them playing together.
On Saturday night we had a party for my brother Nick who turned 30!!!! It was sooo much fun and just wanted to say Happy Birthday again and hope this next year brings you many blessing!

6 Months and counting!!!!

So, the day after Christmas Griffin officially turned 6 months. My how time goes by. I can still remember thinking how crazy it was that Parker was 6 months and now I have another one. He is such a joy and just makes me smile every time that I look at him. He has this grin that makes me clench my teeth and just want to squish him. Maybe it's the chubby cheeks or the many rolls that he has taking over his body, I don't know but I love it! Griffin is now rolling all over the place and sitting up on his own without a problem. The other day I actually heard Parker say "No, that's mine" because Griffin had rolled over to him and stole a toy. And the fighting begins. Time to baby proof!
Bath time! I think he would spend all day in here if I let him.

This is a pic of him after he got 4 different pokes at the Dr. He was not a happy camper at the time, but it only took a couple seconds to get over it. And thankfully he did not react at all. He has always done really well with his immunizations. Like those thighs? Sorry Griffin!
Here he is waiting for the doctor to check him out.

And we are back....

We had a little accident with Jeff's parents computer on Christmas day, so they have been using our computer for a while. But, we are back and will give a quick update of our Holiday Season.

Parker and Griffin had sooo much fun and it was so enjoyable to see the smiles on there faces. We had quite a few parties which made for a busy couple of weeks, but what could be better than spending time with family. The first pic is of the boys at Jeff's families party.
Here is Griffin who learned to sit really well during the Holidays. One happy boy!
Grandma and Papa Terps gave Parker a welding set to match his Daddy's. Needless to say, he walks around all the time asking what he can fix and weld back together.
