Happy People

This was taken while getting ready for our weekly shopping trip. Yep, we get quite excited about that. Not because shopping itself is fun but because we can spend some time together and make some very serious decisions together. Also, because Bug gets treats while on these outings. I think the latter is the reason for the big smile on her face. On the other hand Bee is yet to really understand but seeing his big sister smile certainly makes him smile.

When time comes

I LOVE this stage. His little world is expending and it is so much fun to be able to witness every moment of it. Lately I have been thinking about this little guy being so little and cuddly and how it will change with a blink of an eye. Who will he be? What kind of man will he become?
The difference between Bug and Bee is already evident. He is so much more mellow and patient. Does that mean he will stay that way? He already has a great disposition, which I hope to nurture.
While I hug his little body today I think of him hunching over to hug me when I am old and gray.

Funny Fashion Friday

This was not my idea of a winter outfit....

Let's shake it up

Fun is the name of the game. In our house we like to have fun and laugh a lot. We achieve that by dancing a lot, going to the Museum or to the beach a lot, helping our dolls move out of their house and replace them with our wild animals instead or by simply making fun of our newest addition farting up a storm in his diapers. Now that is what we call fun.

Pulling a little Donnie Darko

...not really, but that's what this picture reminds me of.
Bug had a "farm" themed fundraising party at kindy last Friday and this was the picture we could purchase to help the school out with. One of the things we could purchase. There were lots of other useless things for sale and to be good candidates we made sure to spend a lot of money so that the kindy's pond and yard can be updated with the collected money.
Bug had fun at the party. She was dresses as a farmer and got her face painted as a "mean" tiger. There was BBQ-ing, face painting, dance routine and treasure hunt in the dark.

Who needs rubber duck ducky

One of the daily reoccurring events we have at our house is bath time. Needless to say one should have a large enough bathtub to fit three but that is not quite the case with us. We do have a decent size tub but certainly not enough to fit us all especially not when all Bug wants to do is swim. We now also have a little guy who gets way too excited when we turn the water on and get him undressed. I give him a few more moths and he will be “swimming” in there next to Bug.

Bee is our gentle giant

Bee (Big Easy E) is a week short of being 4 months old. He is an incredible baby. He smiles all the time and laughs out loud when you crack him up. His eyes can talk. He talks. He talks all the time. He doesn’t try to get your attention by crying but by talking. He is mellow and has a great temper. He sleeps well and eats well. He is HUGE. He can fit in things that are way out of his “league”. He refuses to drink out of a bottle and will not take anything other than the boob. Yes, I said it. The boob. I can say it again: boob, boob, and boob…
I’m thinking to start him on “solids” in few weeks as I think he needs the extra pounds. Never mind that I have a hard time carrying him around in his car seat.
He is now turning from tummy to back and vice versa. He found his left thumb and sure loves to suck on it.
