{Happy Candy Day!} ...(as we like to call it)

Here are some pictures!

The cutest farmer.... EVER!!! 

Also he thinks he can crawl already!! 

"NO CHEESE"

Someone didn't want his picture taken. 

Not too happy about having costumes on... 

.... Why mom? .... why?

... Help... 

We went and visited all the grandparents today.

In the car.

Out of the car.

In the car. 

Out of the car.

I will be happy when they learn to buckle themselves. 

My costume.

Actually I just didn't want my picture taken. 

Faelan and Gammy with his new toy. 

We played in the leaves outside at G-MAWs house. 

So Fun.

Here we are about to try something I saw on pinterest. 

Baking soda on a pan.

Vinegar with food coloring. 

Click here to check it out!

I first had W spooning it onto the baking soda.

He loved the reaction. 

It is really fun to see it bubble up like that. 

Finally got M to join us. 

He said. "wowowowow"

And of course it got dumped which they loved! 

I am not going to lie... this was very fun and they asked to do it again... however as I was getting it ready W dumped out the yellow vinegar in the kitchen, then the blue at the table and M followed right after by dumping the red onto the table running onto the carpet... 

Sometimes our adventures don't end well. ;) 

F's first feeding pictures.

(this isn't his first feeding but I forgot to take pictures the first time) 

I gave him the spoon to do it himself. 

Eating is a serious matter.

This is my ball. 

Do not even think about taking my ball. 

My mommy cuts of my head in the best pictures...

Mahon

He loved it! He sat there forever picking it apart. 

It stretches to infinity! 

(please excuse the laundry)

Wyatt

He loved it too! He didn't sit as long as Mahon did, 

but mommy was taking some of his to play with too. 

WHOOOO!! 

It was so much fun and I can't wait to make it agian! 

{A few recent pics....}

Anna and I took them to McDonalds playplace. (gasp! germs! I know) ... i got over it...

they had a blast! 

Here they are playing with a remote, using the crayons as batteries. 

They kept saying, "Fix it, check it, fix it, check it"

Si. Stinkin. Cute. 

{Cider Mill}

One of our most favorite things of fall if going to the cider mill in Louisburg! It is so fun and it smells and tastes so so good... although every time we go there they fall on their faces! 

{nighttime}

I. Am. So. Tired.

I am hoping someone takes mercy on me today and brings me a giant coffee. Be prepapred though I will be in sweatpants and look like I got hit by a truck.

Faelan has been getting up several times a night to nurse. Mahon got up with a sore toe at 3 am. Once he was back to sleep baby and I moved to the couch and then Wyatt joined us about 5:45. We all were asleep for about an hour then baby woke up again and now we are sitting here watching cars. Mahon and Daddy are sleeping peacefully.... Lucky them.

For the past three days the big boys have not napped. No matter how hard we try they just won't. I know this day will go how I set my mind for it to go, if i stay cranky I will be cranky and then everyone else will be cranky too. I need to set my mind to being happy and patient today.....

But first...Coffee.

{thinking}

I know I'm not the only mom who finds peanut butter sandwiches and rocks in her vacuum hose...
...or has to drag her kids out to the car twice to go to the grocery store and we still don't make it there.
 (it was one of those days)

I know I'm not the only mom who finds her basket of apples from the farmers market... not cheap apples... with a bite in almost every one... from yesterday...

I know I am not the only mom who knows all the songs on Dinosaur Train... and sometimes when watching tv alone will switch to a kid friendly show out of habit.


But.
I am the only mom who gets to mother these little boys and that makes me very very very happy. :)
