Saturday came and went in a blink of an eye. The boys were having fun letting the cars roll all over the place. I am so thankful the house goes in a circle, they can just run all they want around and around. Although Noah fell and kind of busted his lip today. He would eat any ice so I hope it isn't too bad in the morning when we get up.

They are both really starting to talk so much more. I am so very thankful for this. Of course I finally give in and start worrying and they start doing whatever it is I worry about. It happens every single time! But hey...no complaint from me! Cameron is really starting to imitate whatever you say and it cracks me up because he sounds like a little parrot. Noah will just say something out of the blue and take me by surprise. I think they comprehend so much more than we are aware of and have selective hearing already. :)

Do these glasses make me look cool? He, he. The boys are loving playing with sunglasses these days. And they wear them upside down which makes me giggle. Good day today. I think the MMR vaccine the boys got a few weeks ago may be causing some not feeling so well. They took a 3 hour nap today! They told us it would take about 10-14 days and we would wonder if they were sick but that more than likely it would be the vaccine. Interesting...very interesting.

Long day today. The boys have been waking up earlier and earlier so it was a trying, trying day due to them being so very tired. Praying this will only last a few more days and we can get back on track. But we still managed to have some very nice moments as well. We read a lot today. Cameron got in his little rocking chair and read for a while. Then at the end of the day they both snuggled with me on the couch and we read book after book. I never tire of this or those knd of moments together.

Cameron is becoming a very affectionate little one. He has been walking up to Noah and giving him a hug just because. They were watching TV while we were winding down and he just reached over and hugged him. No reason, just a sweet tackle kind of hug. They can melt your heart at any given moment of the day. Especially when you are least expecting it.

Busy day. My pile of things to work on in the evenings and was heading to bed when I remember I hadn't taken a photo. :) But did get a lot done so won't complain about the lack of picture taking.

What is this you may ask? You'll have to check out our regular blog to see, didn't get to take a picture of the opened can today. :) Tease...I know. Strange sort of day but turned out good. Our new niece Bella is coming home tonight so very exciting! I think we are all ready for Spring. Cabin fever is setting in.

When Noah woke from his nap this is what I found on the other side of the room. Melts your heart. He had gotten up in the middle of the night again so was just wiped out come nap time. So peaceful when they sleep. Our day kind of flew by. Nothing special going on. The boys ran around the house a lot it seemed. They are wanting to be upstairs more and more so wondering if I should finally break down and put toys in their room. Before you think I am a terrible parent for not putting them there to being with please understand I do not have them in there because I don't want them climbing out of their cribs to get to them. But they love books and keep asking for books while were are in there so I am thinking one bookshelf with mostly books and a few toys. Hmm...

The boys love to put on our shoes and walk around. Noah decided to dance while walking around in my tennis shoes. Went to a pre-school fair, it snowed a good part of the day so we were inside after that. The boys fought their nap...again. If they weren't so grouchy I wouldn't force the issues, but days they are tired and need the nap we have to work it out. :) And of course after they finally did nap all was well with the world again.

Noah still fights getting his coat and especially his hat on. So this morning we put the hat on puppy and one of mommy's jackets on him as well. Noah thought this was the funniest thing. He left puppy like that the whole way to Kindermusik. I, of course, thought it was adorable!

I am surprised this puppy has a nose left the way Noah chews on him all the time. He is a faithful companion and we are lucky Noah has him. :)

These kind of smiles just melt my heart! The boys went to Parent's Day Out today and had fun. They were just so stinking cute in their little jeans and button down shirts. Growing up way too fast. Love to capture these kinds of moments as every time I look at these types of photos I remember these fabulous times. These two little boys are truly amazing!

I love moments like these. The boys were reading quietly while I was putting dinner together. Such sweetie pies! We had a check up today and got our last round of vaccines. They did fabulous and I couldn't be a prouder mommy. Although we did find out Cameron has his first ear infection! Poor guy...he's a trooper though!

Fighting off a cold today. Didn't take many photos and am finishing up my lessons for tomorrow night. I am really excited about the new bible study and ready to get going...although I have to overcome my fear of talking in front of people I don't know. Imagine that.

These are what the neighbor brought over today. Took everything I had not to open a box this evening. Must have willpower! So I only took one photo today and this was it. I thought about cheating and using a photo from yesterday or the day before but made the promise to myself to take at least one photo a day so grabbed the camera before heading down here to post. :)

Was a pretty low key day around here. The boys got these little puppies for Christmas and Noah seemed to be enamored with them all day today. He put them on the rocking chair and rocked them, carried them around half the day and just seemed to enjoy them. He can be so nurturing. Now if they could just stay that way growing up then some woman will be very happy some day! Hope everyone has a great Valentine's Day!

Been a busy week and glad it's Friday. Noah didn't nap again today but he was pretty good for the most part. He was out when I put him down at 7:30. I think Cameron is becoming afraid of the dark. Had to leave their bedroom door open even with the nightlight so he would fall asleep tonight and last night I had to stay in there with him until he fell asleep. This has been coming for a few weeks now. We are so blessed though to have these two little guys in our lives! Their personalities are truly starting to show more and more each day.

Don't they seriously look like they are reading the paper? This was so funny. Noah wanted the section that had the cars after Cameron had already read it. Do they look like an old married couple to you having breakfast and reading the paper? Except they have sippy cups of apple juice instead of coffee and tea. Ha! Never a dull day in our home.

Loved the expression on Cameron's face although he had just knocked heads with his brother. They are so funny. Went to "school" today and ended up taking no nap. Poor guys were so exhausted and had trouble falling asleep. But oh my are they both starting to talk! Cameron sang the first line of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star all on his own. I wasn't even singing the song to him at the time!

Love, love, loves his books! I can't tell you how often we read during the day. I am so thankful. I know I have said this many times already this year but I do hope they keep their love of books throughout their loves. Nice day, got out a lot and ran errands and made Valentines. Fun day.

Both of the boys have taken to disappearing upstairs while we are on the main level of the house. When I go around the corner this is usually what I see when I look up the stairs. Makes me laugh. They usually just run from room to room and giggle. Then of course they also love to play in their closet. They are just always busy, busy little guys.

The boys have discovered bubble baths. They are so funny. If you mention the word bubble or bath now they take off running for their bathroom. I asked shortly after dinner if they wanted to take a bubble bath and both of them met me at the door to their bathroom. They had been there a few minutes already before I realized they had taken off. So funny!

We had a good day today. The boys got to play at the nursery in church and then we had a nice walk in the afternoon. It was 50 degrees today! Nice to get out outside after so many weeks of cold, cold weather.

Haven't taken very many pictures the last 2 days but thought this was cute. The boys loved dragging this caterpillar around and around. He is always smiling and makes me smile each time I look at him as he brings back such fond memories of the boys running around and playing with him.

Quick day. I went to a crop at a local scrapping place and had a great time. It had been so long since I had worked on a digital page and it felt good. Had a lot of "organizing" to do when I got there but I got it and some pages done while there. The boys got to spend some time with daddy and I got to look at pictures of my beautiful babies all night. Always love looking back on their pictures from the last two years.

Our new found love. The boys have been playing with hotwheels cars for some time now at PDO (Parent's Day Out). My fear has always been them throwing them at each other and hurting one another. They just love these things though and I could no longer deprive them of the joy of these little cars. The first thing Cameron does when he gets to class most of the time is run and find the hotwheels cars. Now just have to figure out how to get them not to hord every car in sight and share with one another. :)

Noah trying to feed Puppy. They are in a nurturing stage and it is so cute to see. I am a lucky and blessed mommy and some days just have to keep telling myself that over and over again. :)

Now that is putting their heads together! I took 79 pictures today and this was near he very end. I loved it as soon as I saw it! Just too cute and so funny to me.

Its cold, cold, cold and we got some more snow today. Which means the boys will more than likely not have Parent's Day Out again tomorrow. Sigh. They have cabin fever so badly as do I. Keeping my fingers crossed we at least have our music class on Thursday!

I'm your heartthrob baby. We got some new glasses today because the boys have really been bothered by how bright it is in the car with all the snow on the ground. I just had to laugh at Cameron today wanting to wear them all the time. He ate dinner with them on nearly the entire time. Funny, funny kiddos!

So very thankful my children love to read and that people love to read to them! I think we spent the entire day reading today, what an awesome thing to remember! So very lucky and the boys are really enjoying their grandparents being here.
