243/365


I can't believe the weather here right now! It was 46 degrees when I got up this morning. Oh am I happy girl. This was always the time of year I dreaded most in Texas, August and September. Miserable weather. Guess I turned out to be a northern gal after all.

The boys did great. They had therapy and we played. They even both napped! I had a doctor's appointment this afternoon so Daddy got to spend some time with the boys. I know they loved that. Noah got his first bee sting. Of course I wasn't there which in a way was probably good. I have never been stung and am petrified of the things. He handled this (like everything else) as a trooper. He was ready to go back outside and play while I was on the phone with Mike after it happened. They amaze me how resilient they are!

My conversation with Cameron while we were outside playing this afternoon.

Me: The sun went behind the clouds.
C: Yep, I scared him.
Me: You scared the sun so he went behind the clouds?
C: Yep, I played monster with him.

That kid never fails to make me smile or laugh. He then proceeded to show me how he played monster with him. Very, very cute!

Interesting day. The boys did just fine until dreaded nap time. Cameron decided once again he wanted to get naked and then when I wouldn't allow him to became a crazy child. Threw a huge tantrum. Ugh! Other than that we had a really fun day. Lots of playing trains, playing instruments, reading, some shopping for new mini wheel barrels for them to push around and carry things. Stuff like that. Perfect weather...high of 72 with a nice breeze most of the day. Ah, gotta love the mid-west!

They ran around for a while this morning one with one of their Daddy's hats on and the other with one of their stuffed animals hat's on. It was pretty funny. Love to hear their giggles and seeing them play together more and more. It is just amazing to see this wonderful bond beginning to grow between them.

And can I just say for the record how hard it is to not take pictures of them when they are sleeping at night. They are so very peaceful and beautiful and I just always want to go and snap pictures but know I can't. Some day I just may because they are just too cute to resist!

LOVE Noah's experssion in this picture. They were playing in their tent and having a snack. Both of them just wanted to stay in their jammies and stay at home this morning. They have been wanting to just stay at home a lot lately. Poor little guys, guess we had a busier summer than I thought! I do think they are already enjoying their routine again.
Lots of playing trains, trucks, cars, animals, Thomas the Train (which they are REALLY getting into lately), tent (even building our own) and reading books. Ah, gotta love days like today!

The boys playing doctor. They just love to give shots and take your temperature. Too funny.
They went to school today. Mike had the day off and so we cleaned house while the boys were away and actually got to try a new place for lunch (Cajun food). It was nice! The boys enjoyed having Daddy home. I was able to go and get my hair done and even go and meet a great group of women for dinner. Fun day!

Ah, the sweet sound of babies sleeping. We had a fun day today. The boys did nap again but not so sure this is a good thing. If they nap then they don't want to go to bed. We are definately in transition! We had fun though playing blocks, monster, cars, and with little people. They are both just getting so big!

Today's picture was Cameron chasing Noah around this morning when I asked them to stand together to take a picture before school. Noah of course didn't want to take a picture. Cameron is always up for loving on his brother, or tackling him, whichever you prefer to call it. :)
The days are ticking away. Man, can't believe the boys started their second year of Parent's Day Out today. It just seems like we moved here and they started their first year yesterday. Wow. The time is flying. They did fine when I dropped them off. It was pretty crazy in there. We didn't get to experience that last year because we were on a waiting list. Our first day was just like any other day for everyone else. I have to admit it was kind of nice. They napped when we got home! Oh my was it a much better deal that the last few days have been. They seem to like it so we'll see how the year progresses. Keeping my fingers (anything else I can think of crossed!)
