Uhhh..... mine, mine

Andrew built a fun little tower with some dominos so I thought I'd take a pic.....

Well, as soon as Parker saw me take a pic of Andrew's he said.... "Uhhhh... mine,
take one of my mine" and started pointing to his tower:)


Soooo sweet!!

31 weeks..




Cam took a couple of pics of me and the boys... you can see how big my belly is getting in one of them:) I went to the doc today and I have gained 20 pounds. I gained 30 with both boys so I'm expecting to gain at least 10 more. The doctor said that Piper is already a pretty big baby:( I was sooo hoping for a sweet, petite baby girl. Andrew was 8 lb 10 oz and Parker was 8 lb 13 oz and they were both a week early. I was really rooting for a 6 pounder this time but we'll be thrilled as long as she's healthy!!

More Pics of the Snow Day:)

We wanted to get a couple of pics of Parker and the Snowman so we let him go out for a minute and then he immediately wanted to put the snow gear on (even the Wal-Mart bags:).




Cameron asked Andrew what he wanted to name the Snowman and he said, "Andrew". Cam said, "Why?" and Andrew replied, "Because I like that name". Then Spot, our beloved dog, was jumping on the Snowman and Andrew ran over and yelled... "NOOOO Spot... that's Andrew!!" He then grabbed some snow and smoothed over the Snowman:)
I told Cameron that I personally think the Snowman is a little creepy looking because his eyes look like they hurt!!:)

**sNoW dAy**



Hip...Hip... HoOraY! We finally get a snow day... and by the way, I honestly believe teachers LOVE this way more than students:) The boys were sooo excited this morning to wake up to a blanket of snow on the yard. Cameron took a 1/2 day (mainly because the roads were bad when he tried to go to work this morning... and also to play in the snow:). He and Andrew are out building a snowman. Parker, unfortunately, is a little under the weather. He woke up a couple of times complaining of an earache. He didn't want to go outside, mainly because he didn't want to put Wal-Mart bags on his shoes to keep them dry:). He does have a slight fever. Poor Parky-Park (and the funky bunch).
Well... off to make some hot chocolate!!

Just curious....

So, what's your all time favorite movie? Cam and I NEVER get to watch movies, well unless they're rated G:) with the boys. Since we have such little opportunity to watch movies, I'm curious to know what are some movies worth spending time on.
I have several favorite movies but my all time favorite is Life is Beautiful. Wow... what an amazing story of a selfless father. I love this movie, so if you haven't seen it I'm recommending it...



Also.... Simple is giving away a really cool set of animal blocks. You should check it out.

i LOVE this weather!!



Today our highs were in the upper 60's and it was soooo beautiful! Cam and I took the boys to the park. We had such a great time. The boys played and played and played. There were several other families that showed up so the park was full of children playing.
Parker is very energetic and full of life but is sometimes a little shy when it comes to other kids. I think it's mainly his age (just turned 3) and the fact that he has never been to daycare or anything. The only time he and Andrew are around other little ones is at church, with family or when Mrs. Mindy takes them to the library. Today when the other kids showed up I told the boys, "they may want to come over and play with your chalk". Parker immediately went to the chalk and held the bucket tight as he started drawing. I don't think it's really that he didn't want to share it, he just didn't want them around him:) He usually warms up to others but it takes a while. It's so strange because it's really not his personality at all to be shy, so when he's this way Cam and I always feel like we're with a different child.

On another note... I've been buying from ebay for quite some time now but this week I sold my first item:) I've been going through the boys old clothes and sold 3 different lots of clothing this week. We also have our Handycam video camera right now on ebay and just listed our iMac.
