Pouring Rain So Obvi We Went to DCM

First off, I love when BBB lays like this. 

He strikes this pose as I'm changing his diaper. Considering I spend my days often physically forcing toddlers to do things they don't want to do (wear a diaper/undies/clothes/PJs, get strapped in car seat, get in car and not run in traffic), I find Ben's position very thoughtful. Thanks, son. 

Jack begged to play Dogopoly, a gift from Aunt Marianne.  I hesitated because the fam room was a mess. Jack cleaned the entire room so she could play and proceeded to organize the cards and play for like 1.5 hours. Also, we both stepped on one of those little plastic houses in the carpet. Not the best feeling.

These 2. Jack said to me "Isn't Ben so lucky to have us as his mommies?" And Hilly now sings "Benny Boy Benny Boy, you're so cute!" We sing this in the car. 

Jim worked late Friday night so this guy was my hot date. 

Sat AM- pouring rain all day so we hit up DCM w P and crew. 

Below is my sweet Hill's eating a cracker that Hannah was sweet enough to share. Tiffany saw Jackie take a bite of a cracker and share the rest with Hilly. Isn't that sweet? 

These 2 held hands on the way out of school the other day. 

Ben is a total ladies' man. 

He can't help it if he is irresistible. 

School Pics

It is 8:17 and both girls are in time out. It's school picture day for Jackie which is always a nightmare in our house. 

Let's reminisce on happier times:

These dot paint things are soooo awesome. Way better than regular paints. 

Out to dinner w Gma while Dada was sick at home. The gift of peace and quiet.

Gma was able to watch gym class.

We broke out Hoppy and Carrots from Aunt B. 

Wish me luck.  Going to try and dress my children now. Hold me!

A Week in Pics

I blame the hot and cold (mostly cold) weather and illness for my absence. Currently battling the cold from hell. I forgot how awful a cold can be. 

But enough about me. 

Hilly's gym class!

My Jax, patiently awaiting her turn. 

Sharing goldfish. Hills insisted on wearing that summer dress. 

It's so cute, isn't it? 

My snuggler. 

Diva. 

Pasta-aholic. She eats pasta for every meal. 

Ben got a fever.  First one to fall ill. 

Bath with his leading ladies. 

She is pantsless and obsessed w brushing teeth, "going potty," and washing her hands. 

Day in the life... 

Selfies during Hilly's nap time. 

Today's trampoline fun. 

Oh and Monday was bring a friend day to gym. Jack and P brought their friends from school. It was really cute.
