Yea, Don't Ask.

Caitlin had found a purple headband that she has wanted to wear for the last couple of days. When you don't put it on for her, or are fast enough, she tries to put it on herself.
Today, both me and Jayson walked up the stairs to get them when they woke up from their nap. Please notice the shirt she has on.
It is a long sleeve turtle neck that has 3 snaps in the back. We opened the kids' bedroom door, all Caitlin has on is her pants. No shirt or socks. And she is as happy as can be. Even now 6 hours later, I am still trying to figure out how she took it off without undoing the snaps. While I was looking for her socks, she grabbed her headband and handed it to Jayson. Good job putting it on daddy!
Connor, he hasn't undressed himself yet, although he is a big help when it comes time to put his PJ's on. He loves his PJ's. When I open up his bedroom door, he yells "HEY!" He I think is going to be my gabberbox. Jayson walked in the door the other day and Connor runs in the kitchen and yells "wazzup?" It was the funniest thing, I have no idea where he heard the at, we don't say that. And he yells "Kaiser" which is understandable, they hear that all the time. Kaiser likes to try to steal food from their hands when I am not looking.
I guess I should count myself lucky, although they fight over toys and time on my lap, I should be happy they fight the most over books. And we read the same books over and over and over again. Those poor books look like they have gone through a war or two. It has been so difficult with the weather being bad. We just can't go and spend all afternoon outside when it is cold. I am sorry. Not going to happen. Not that they understand this. But when it is nice enough to go out, it seems like the only thing we do is go to the neighborhood playground and swing.
I know I have posted a lot of pictures of them on the swings, but I promise I took this Thursday. One day, we will have to find a different park. We will also have to use our Mommy and Me passes to the Georgia Aquarium. I am looking forward to that! We also have to go check out the Children's Museum, the have a room were everything is padded and they can climb the hearts content.
Gotta run the Utah/BYU men's basketball game is on. Go Utes!

Smile!

This is Connor's new thing, squishing his face up and closing his eyes when you take his picture.

Playing in the Park

I know it is January, but it's not supposed to be this cold in Georgia and for so long. Yesterday it finally warmed up and we were able to spend a couple hours at the park. Because we were the only ones there, the kids were able to run around like there was no tomorrow.

Here they are enjoying the slide

Enjoying the swings
Having fun in the sand. They both had found a ball and had to carry them with them for a while.

Climbing Mt. Sofa!

The kids are learning how to climb up onto the furniture. Couldn't you hear the joy in my voice?I need to find out where the nearest hospital is located, just to be on the safe side.

Let it Snow!!!

It snowed here this afternoon. Just a dusting which is enough to cause major problems here. The roads here are all iced over. We should see a lot of cars sliding in the morning.


I took the kids out and let them run around in our yard today. I think they were getting a little stir crazy, being cooped up in the house.
This is my crazy girl. She seemed to really like being outside.
Not so much for Connor. He crawled around on the grass, saw it was cold and wanted nothing to do with it.
Man, I can't wait for it to get warm again!

Happy 2010!

I just wanted to wish everyone a happy new year! Christmas time is always a crazy time. We have Christmas Eve dinner here at our house with the Keever family. I really enjoy having everyone over. The kids enjoyed it too, they had Uncle Jeff, Uncle Bryan and Aunt Lynne chasing after them. Christmas morning is always wonderful too! We always have a wonderful Christmas breakfast over at Great Granddad Keever's house. Santa even left a wonderful surprise over there for Connor and Caitlin.

It's an inflatable Mickey's Clubhouse with 50 plastic balls! It used to have 50, some have come up missing! They love sitting in there with a book. Or laying over the sides.

Connor and Caitlin each got one of these bikes you can either ride or push. They like them, the gas caps spin and make a clicking sound.Caitlin in her "Whatcha Talking about?" pose.
Here is dude, showing off his muscles! They had to wear their Texas shirts, Kip did buy them for them last Christmas and they hadn't worn them yet or since. I am waiting for them to get a little bit older so I can teach them to flash the U with their hands!
