Katie and Zoe

These girls are so gosh darn cute! I have some much fun with them every day. I get the best of both worlds. I get to play with them during the day and then send them home every night. :) I have to get my baby huffing in and I get some awesome little ones to do it with.

Zoe and her sweet little gerber baby face (I love the drool!)

Do you think the jumperoo may still be a little big for her?

This 8 month old is up to no good! She is so smart, she may be outsmarting us soon.

Katie loved the black beans!

Diaper Rash Cream

Monday was a day for the books. I went to 6am yoga and then got called in to sub for sick workmate. So Brandon was left with the twins and Katie. I was only going to be gone for 3 hours so I thought the day would go pretty smoothly for him.

I called on my way home to check in and got an earful and then started laughing so hard I was crying. :)

So while he was catching up on his race and trying to feed Katie he kept hearing the twins upstairs saying "its stuck, its stuck".

This is something we hear all the time when they can't get something to work the way they want it to. We thought the upstairs was pretty kid safe.  They play up there often and normally don't get into too much trouble.

But this time when Brandon went to check on them he  found out what all the talking had been about. The had found a small tub of Dr. Smiths diaper rash cream. This is the really thick paste that we love for diaper rashes. Well they had found a pencil and were using the pencil to paint the cream on each others heads.

And my husband being the wonderful man he is, did stop to document the moment for me. We have to have blackmail for the future right?

He shampooed their hair about 5 times and it ended up just being super greasy. He also tried baking soda and vinegar.It helped a little but not enough. So after they got out of the bath he went downstairs with Katie, and heard them talking again and it sounded like trouble.

They had gotten into the toothpaste and smeared it all over the place. After cleaning that up and still trying to get Katie her bottle he heard them one last time. T

his time they had found blue paint and were trying to brush their teeth with it.  Needless to say nap time came very quickly after all the escapades. And the upstairs was thoroughly inspected to remove all items that may cause trouble in the future.

I came home and tried the mayo trick, but their hair is still greasy, but not as bad. Next up is using dawn dish soap on their hair. And wouldn't you know it, today was school picture day.

I love those crazy kids. They sure do keep me laughing. :)

ABC Mat

Brandon's parents came to visit us for the last 5 days and we got SO MUCH done. I seriously have the best in laws in the world. I could not keep my sanity without ALL of my wonderful family helping and supporting us. We are truly blessed with a wonderful family. :)

Linda is an awesome seamstress and has been making all sorts of fun things for the kids lately. Her newest creation was an ABC mat for the twins. She came up with the whole thing by herself. And the twins just loved it!

I even got Hannah to look up from her book for a quick snap!

And Ben to show off his new glasses :)

More Park Fun

I know I haven't blogged in a while. Life has just been a bit crazy. Here are a few other shots from the park.

Luckily Cooper had nowhere to really run. :)

He decided to squat down like I was doing, but it sorta looks like he's taking a dump...did I look like that to him?

love my sweet girl swinging! (1st time on a big kid swing)

Beck and Coop

Our dog may not be the smartest but he is one of the best when it comes to being with the kids. :)
