Time Out and Then Some!!!

When Olivia was in time out this week I should have wondered why she was so quiet (she's usually yelling) but I was feeding carter when I told her to go in, and also when I said she could come out. Well 20 minutes later I found this in the bathroom.....












I was so shocked, I just stood there a laughed!! I decided to leave it to show Cy what she'd done, and he said we couldn't just throw it out so here he is rolling it into useable amounts LOL.












Tunnel of Fun!

We saw this tunnel at Ikea and thought the kids might like it, we didn't realize how much they'd like it, they played in it for at least an hour the first day we had it, it's a fabulous mommy saver!!! hahaha.


Carter's hair got all staticky when he was sitting in it, so I had to take a picture to show he has hair!!! hahaha.











Near...












Far......












Gimli loves the tunnel too, this was just before he ran straight into my camera putting nose marks on my lens!











The only picture I could get of olivia without her turning away, she was too excited!

Happy Valentines Day!

We had a great Valentines day this year, Auntie Emma came to visit for the day and we had lots of fun. We also tried to get a picture of the two kids in their Valentines shirts, um ya, didn't go so well.

Carter saying "YAY" hahaha.















I knocked over a pail of popcorn trying to get the kids attention....oops, not what I meant to do! hahaha.














A somewhat good picture











Olivia brushing her hair with the hand broom











Auntie Em and Olivia playing with whats left of the popcorn












We had some bubble wrap left over and we let the kids play with it, they'd never seen it before it was hilarious!














Olivia's tough face LOL.














tug o war!












Carter kept trying to pull it over his head.

Hanging out with Friends

Last week we watched our friends son Bryce for the day, the kids had so much fun having a friend to play with all day.


Bryce loved the dogs, and they loved him, they got so much attention!!














Having a snack











Watching it snow, Bryce grabbed a shovel and wanted to go outside LOL!











I swear Bryce is gonna be a chef, he was so particular about putting the food into the microwave it was so cute to watch.

Playing In The Water

We try to get outside as much as possible when the weather is nice, last week the water was just too appealing for the kids to stay away, so I figured why not, it's only water, Carter loved it!














Checking to see if mom is watching















Reaching.....












Full contact, he didn't keep his hand in for long, it was too cold.

Outside Ice Cream....in February!

Today ended up being a beautiful day, it got up to 12 degrees in February! So when we were waiting for daddy to get home from work we decided to sit on the porch and have some ice cream sandwhiches and enjoy the weather.

















Mmmmm Ice Cream!!















Not really ice cream but a mum mum is close enough! Next Year Buddy!














More Ice Cream happiness

Liv started licking it like it was a cone instead of a sandwhich














Carter grinding his cracker into the deck.














Washing hands in the snow














Carters first time touching the snow.












Notice the nice big string of slober from his hand to his face, gotta test out the snow first.

A Day At the Park

We went to visit our friends Alyssa and Emerson today, and mommy got to visit with her friend Michelle for some good ole girl time (thank god!) And we went to the park, we had a great time being outside for the first time in a long time!
