another baby....Due, Dec 25th!

Last week I watched my girlfriend's sons, Cohen and Gavin, so Leslie could go on a field trip with her daughter. Avery and Andon were so cute with Cohen, the baby. So I decided to ask them if they would like Mommy and Daddy to have another baby. Of course they said, "Yes!" with great excitement. Well, this was the conversation that I overheard over breakfast this morning...

Avery:"Would you like it if mommy and daddy had another baby?"

Andon:"Uh-huh."

Avery: "Well, you'll have to wait until Christmas and see if Santa will bring you one. Like dolls or shopping carts or kitchen or a car. Yep, we'll have to see."

If it were only that easy!!! Sometimes they really CAN be sweet :-)

The Little Gym

We had a playdate at the Little Gym this week and the kids had a lot of fun! I included the picture of one of their friends, Renee, who will soon be the next member of our MOPS group...hehehe!

Stick 'Em Up!

Just some cute bathtime photos :-)

Angels in Heaven??? I don't think so!!!

So this is what I woke up to this morning! They look so sweet and innocent, like angels on a cloud in Heaven, right??? I don't think so! After the third time of this same event (the first two times were during the day) I decided to grab a picture of them. While I was not very happy, it did take us about 30 minutes to clean up this time because the couch cushion was completely empty! Gotta love 'em though!

Monkeys, drummers and dorks....oh, my!

So we have had quite the fun times lately!

Here we have my two little monkeys at the zoo...
Avery, our "Little Drummer Girl" (I guess music does indeed run in the family)...
our messy, goofball Avery drinking her smoothie...
and Andon, our goofball who wakes up from his nap because his hand gets stuck between the buttons on his shirt!!!

Well, It's Official...

Well, it is official...Mark has been hired by Southwest Airlines!!!! We don't have any specific information yet as far as start dates go but we should know more in the next week or so! This is a huge answer to prayer!!!

Mark was so funny because we have both been on pins and needles these last two days that it got to the point that I knew that he hadn't heard yet by the way he answered so I stopped asking. So this morning he answered that he was, "Just ok." so I assumed that since he just started rambling on and on about his morning (and it is always quite a morning when the tread falls of your airplane's tire!) that he had not. He just went on and on for about 5 minutes and then just threw in, "Oh, and I had a nice conversation with a guy from Southwest this morning..." and my only response was, "WHAT??!?!?!". So needless to say, we are very excited!!!!
