Tractors and Trucks!

Saturday we took the boys to Ace Speedway to check out a tractor pull and some monster trucks! They really seemed to enjoy themselves and weren't as scared as I thought they'd be of the noise.

Slooooooooooooow Motion.

Chad and I got the iPhone5s - I'm loving the camera and the slow motion video! Check this video out of the boys dancing...HILARIOUS.

Happy Friday!!

I'm obviously a lover of the weekends...love spending it with my family!! How could you not want to hang out with these guys?!!!

Liam counting to 10!

Fall Y'all!

We spent the first day of fall playing a little indoors and then heading to the Burlington Carousel Festival. It was such a beautiful day!

I put a bunch of random dry food items in bowls and let the boys go to town - this kept them quiet for over an hour - It was well worth having to clean it up afterwards!

Then we headed off to the festival where the boys met up with their favorite police officer ... 

Happy Friday!!

I can't wait to spend the weekend with these guys!!

RUN.

My cute boys :)

This past Saturday morning I took the boys running with me...I had to wrap them up in blankets...yay for fall being right around the corner!! :) I've still been running pretty often but I haven't ran very much pushing the boys in the stroller and MAN! now I know why...that was some hard work. I'm STILL sore. I ran a 5K with them and it about wore me out. They had fun though so I hope to do it more often...I'll just know next time...that it's not as easy as I thought it would be!

Wordless Wednesday.

Sunday.

Landon and I made some rice krispie treats this past Sunday -- to say he liked them was an understatement! He had fun helping too!

I had to take a picture of Liam during bathtime Sunday to show what he looks like with 'short hair'.  I had it piled up all on his head.  He is getting his hair trimmed on Friday. I thought he looked more like a baby but everyone else seems to say he looks just like Landon. 

CHEESE!!!! I guess looking at them above sorta 'side by side' --- they do look a like!!

Mama and her boys!

I love these guys!!!!

Albums

We finished up our August Album and started the September Album! This year is flying by!!!! Landon will be FOUR next month - AHH!

Picture update.

Here are a few pictures from the past few days...mostly this past weekend.  We hung out some at Lake Tillery with Chad's brother and his family on Saturday and then went to Burlington Park on Sunday.  Liam still isn't into riding any rides but Landon loves anything you'll let him ride.  You'll also see Liam's wonderful bedhead and a few pictures of them playing at home.

 

Baby Liam's First Day of Pre-School!

We all remember Landon's first day of pre-school last year. Well yesterday was

Liam's first day!! We pulled up to the school and I asked Liam if he was ready to go to school and he politely said, "No Kool, Mama. No Kool". But then got right out of the car and walked over to Landon. Landon told him how much fun they were going to have (melt my heart). Then Landon grabbed his hand and they walked into school together (melt my heart again).

Liam seemed fine and was going up to the toys and starting to show them to me. A few minutes later, I started to walk out and that's when he lost it. "MAMA!!!! I WANT YOU MAMA!!! NO KOOL!! NO KOOL!!! I spent a few minutes calming him down. Landon was trying too -- showing him trucks and things. He was seriously acting like the best big brother ever. I was so proud. Eventually I had to just leave Liam crying. Break my heart. BUT I called after I got to work to check on him and they said he calmed down and ended up being just fine and had a great first day! He played, ate and napped! I'm sure it will take a few days for him to adjust but I hope he will end up loving it as much as Landon does.
