Uncharted waters

Snow snow everywhere... Snow snow on the ground... Snow snow all around!

With the inches of powdery white covering the ground the kiddos and I were forced to spend Saturday indoors. Mommy had no trouble coming up with fun activities to keep everyone entertained.

***Proud Mommy Moment Alert!***

With Landon in his high chair and Shawn in his booster seat I bravely set out to cook dinner. Bratwurst, Scalloped Potatoes, and Corn here we come. A few toys lay scatted for Landon and a Doodle pro for Shawn as I headed into uncharted waters. These two boys sat together and played without so much as a peep while I prepared dinner for Shawn and I (baby food for the lil guy.) Shawn fed himself without incident. Landon ate a whole bowl of sweet potatoes and rice cereal. Then the boys jumped ship into the living room and Mommy sat at the dinner table with a magazine in hand to enjoy a peaceful meal. These two little darlings even gave me enough time to clean up the kitchen and get things ready for bedtime! How lucky can a Mom get?!


My 1st sippy cup! And I did so good with it (Mommy was all worried for nothing since I didn't take to solid foods and a spoon so well.)


So proud that I'm graduating to a sippy (but I still love my bottles too!)


Shawn's pet dolphin from GiGi & Poppy

They had a blast laughing at each other in the mirror. This is seriously the best baby toy ever. It comes highly recommended by the boys ;)

Entertaining each other so nicely.


Sorry MeMe, still taking unrecognizable snapshots of my pants. I'll get the hang of it soon & Mommy will mail you all my b-e-a-u-tiful pics ;)

Can you hear my tunes GiGi and Poppy? Sending some beach band fun to S.C. (He LOVES it!)

Since I'm always laughing about Landon's acrobatics, here is a picture of twinkle toes up on his tip toes. He's hilarious!!!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE him! Look at that munchkin face! See why I can't put him down during the day?
This kiddo is a Memory master! Every night we have game time and we play a few rounds of Memory and then Candy Land Castle afterwards. I think he cheats at Candy Land since he always wins ;)

I LOVE your pictures! Your boys are so gosh darned adorable. :) WTG Landon with the sippy cup! Wow, so early too. I still think of him as a little newborn.
