Just Because I Can!!
Tonight, like every night, I snuck into the boys rooms just to check on them. To make sure that Ethan's fan is off, and Wesleigh's fan is on, to make sure that everyone is perfect and doesn't need a thing before I tuck myself away for the night.
Tonight, I blown away by their perfect beauty. I just had to take a picture, just because I can! I love those babies!!!
I AM SO BLESSED!!

September 22, 2009
What is significant about September 22, 2009???
It is the first day of fall, and what a spectacular fall day we had! It was AMAZING!! It was 68 degrees when we got up, and I think the warmest it got was 75! I have had the house open all day and I am totally loving it.
Well, big things in our house happened since I last posted. On a trip to Nana and Grandpa's house, Wesleigh climbed out of the pack n play. I had been thinking that it was coming, I had even started searching for bunk beds...then it happened.
The first few days while we were at my mom and dad's were tough, but things have been great since we have been home. I am so proud of him, but it is so hard to see him in that big ol' bed. We have had a couple of bad potty training days, but I have attributed to the major changes he has experienced. Today was a better day, hopefully tomorrow will be even better.
My big boy and his 4 monkeys sleeping in the big boy bed his first night. 
He will always be my baby!!

I committed to start a new Beth Moore Bible Study at a different church in town, and I am looking forward to all the things that I will learn through that in between now and December. Wednesdays we go to story hour at the library. Thursdays we have playgroup. Since Mondays can be particularly difficult with Wesleigh, I will probably have some weeks where I meet up with my friend Annie at the park, just to make the day go faster!
My sweet Ethan
This is a classic Ethan look!! LOVE IT!!
This is the most squeezable kid on earth!
Daddy and his little goober nuts!
silly boy at lunch time
Wesleigh had Peanut Butter and Jelly for lunch today...not sure if he actually ate any of the Jelly, or is just wearing it on his face!
he is a total cheeser when the camera comes out.
this face is Wesleigh's mean little face. He makes it when he is mad or irritated with something.

Those Smiles that Get me Everytime!!
Well, I have started to accept the fact that busy is our new normal. It seems like we are constantly busy, between our regularly scheduled weekly activities and my work adventures, then traveling to see family, we are constantly on the go. Thankfully the little boys seem to roll with it most of the time.
My Wesleigh continues to do wonderful with his potty training. Most days we have perfect days, every now and then we have a rare accident. We now leave the house with undies on, we haven’t had an accident in public yet, but he has peed in the car a number of times. I just have to keep reminding myself that he is only 22 months old. People are always telling me how impressed they are with him doing so well at potty training. He is amazing it is a lot of work, but SO worth it. He continues to get smarter everyday. Some of the things that he does just amazes me. He is a clever little kid. He has officially mastered using a spoon. He is talking in sentences. We have started saying “yes maam” (es mam), but it still takes a lot of coaching. He totally loves to play outside. He loves to swing (wing) and slide (ide). Last week he learned how to climb (imb) up the slide, then slide back down. This week he learned to climb up the rock wall, slide down the slide, then climb back up! Over and over and over again. He is such a little monkey. He has yet to climb out of his crib, but I think we are only days away from doing it. This morning I caught him sitting on the top rail of the crib. We have had money put aside for a set of bunk beds, I guess it is probably about time to buy it!
My sweet Ethan is so so busy. That boy is constantly moving. He needs to be busy all the time or he is just not happy. Oh, and eat, that boy loves to eat. He already eats more than Wesleigh does now! Wesleigh is his hero, he totally idolizes everything he does. He has been preoccupied with Wesleigh’s sippy cup for a while, so I introduced him to his very own sippy. He totally loves it. He loves to be outside. He loves to swing in his bucket swing, he loves the double jogging stroller and he even likes sitting in the grass. His big beautiful 3 toothed smile never fails to brighten my day and make me smile. He is such a happy little fella and a true joy to be around. I adore that sweet baby boy, I just wish he would stop growing up so quickly!!
So as usual here are a billion pictures of my handsome little monsters! Enjoy the pictures, because it will probably be another 3 weeks before I find time to update again!
They totally love to swing. 
Our morning routine is, everyone gets up, Ethan gets a clean diaper, which he usually poops in within 5 minutes, and we take his pajamas off. Then Wesleigh gets up, takes his pajamas and diaper off, goes potty and gets undies. Then we have breakfast in our undies and diaper. It was a habit that started when I started letting Wesleigh learn to eat cereal and milk with a spoon by himself. It was pretty messy in the beginning, but he had to learn somehow!
hanging out just before we got dressed for the day
so silly
these boys are so silly
My sweet t-tan

Hi mom
Our Sunday school class had a BBQ at the park...Ethan took a brief nap in the backpack
