Preschool Show & Tell – Year 2 – Week 18

On Christmas morning when the boys opened these really cute Paw Patrol car toys I wondered how long it would take for him to take them for S&T. It definitely didn't take long..and now I wonder if and when he'll take the other 6 of them!

This little guy's name is Chase!

I love this picture of James, with his handsome new glasses and the awesome Transformer toy that he got from Santa at his Busy Bee's preschool Christmas party.

Mommy’s Little Men – Week 4 – Jan 18 – 24

Starting off the week with a couple of good photos of James and Mommy


Here we are just before we left on our Mommy/James date

And here's after Mommy's new hair cut

James at Timmy's after soccer Saturday

Another jumping off the stairs photo!


Now moving onto Jordie....cupcake eating for Mommy's birthday dinner!
 
Here he is sound asleep on his way home from doing recycling with Daddy

Up late one night because he was thirsty

At least at this point he was happy. Ask me how happy I was when he was still awake and screaming over an hour later. Not sure what was up with him this night because he is almost never awake after he goes to bed at night.

And a rare looking at the camera picture of him too

Those big brown eyes just melt my heart

Now some pictures of them together...snuggling with Daddy on Sunday morning when Mommy
had to go to work

Snuggles with Mommy on her birthday morning

Awesome new matching Canucks PJ's from Bumma



This is how they watch TV together once in awhile

And Daddy is just a jungle Jim these days!

Mommy’s Little Men – Week 3 – Jan 11 – 17

Starting off with my favorite photo of Jordie this week!

This is his typical thinking face

These two are just too cute


Oh dear, he's started to see his brother jump off the stairs to Jim and even though he won't actually jump yet he gets very excited at the thought of actually doing it. I know the day is coming very soon!

And of course James has no fear because he's been doing this for years by now!

New glasses


Great photo of these 3

And the best one of the 6 of these guys. We tried one with Maddie too but she wasn't having it!

Now here are a couple of the two of them together

It was time for a BIG change, and I feel so much lighter now!

I love having long hair, but am far too busy/lazy to take the time to straighten it every day, so ended up doing the pony tail or messy bun every.single.day!!

I knew I wanted to cut it months ago, but then also wanted easy hair for Mexico so kept it long much longer than I had planned to. I strongly debated it back in September for our family photos but decided against it. Once Christmas was over I knew it was definitely time. I know the next few weeks will be interesting as I get used to actually doing my hair again, but I love having short hair....until I get tired of it and grow it out again. It's just kind of what I do!

 
The Before

And the AFTER! 

And a little side by side to show the difference.

Random cuteness post

THIS is why I fought so hard to buy this chair and a half. I love that it's big enough for one of us to snuggle up with our kidlets. This is my morning tea spot and almost every single day Jordie climbs up with me while I drink my tea and we Facetime with Nana....or rather he watches Paw Patrol or Bubble Guppies while I talk to Nana!
 
This was the scene when I came up from my office to head out to my meeting tonight. So much cuteness.

Happy Birthday to me!

Even though I had to work today I ended up having a good day! Jim got up with the boys so I could sleep in, then I went and got my new driver's license photo taken, got some of my favorite yummy breakfast burritos from McDonalds, a visit with my boys and then off to work where I was spoiled with lots of love, a nice sign and a yummy sprinkle donut :)

Attempting to get a good one of the 3 of us....look at Jordie's new "smile"

Me and my sweethearts this morning in their new matching PJ's

Me and James before I left for work

They asked me what I wanted and I said a sprinkle donut, I didn't think they were actually gonna sing to me though!

At home on my dinner break and decided to have a hot chocolate instead of food.

My sign waiting at my desk this morning

Home from work and boys are heading to bed, but wanted to try and get a cute family photo

And one more attempt at a great photo with my two little men! I just love these two so much and feel so lucky to be their mommy, today and always!
