Ah my child

So sorry for the lack of updates. Nathan has been taking the laptop to work, and i would normally upload pictures during the day. I have plenty of pics and updates that are coming. In the mean time, i thought id fill you in on the keen eye of my toddler. Twice now, Owen has pointed to a zit on my cheek and said " uh oh." thank you, my son. Thank you very much.

man.

i LOVE my boys. love them. but man o man, sometimes life can be hard with two babies! for example... we are starting a church here in austin, and last sunday was our second service. everyone eats together afterward and gets to be social and hang out. however, owen was pretty fussy, which was driving me crazy. about 10 mins in to being social, caleb starts crying. so, i went to a tiny room by myself and fed him for 15 mins. then, after feeding him, he projectile spit up. but instead of hitting the floor, the spit up went into my hair (i had forgotten a pony tail holder, yeah..). needless to say, i took my disgusting self, now content 3 month old, and fussy 20 month old home. booooo for no socializing. on top of that, both babies have been congested and coughing, and caleb has been up so much during the night because he cant breathe. LOVELY. im just tired.

on a different note, nana and aunt libby came to austin last weekend and we had a wonderful time! we went to the market, the jumpy gym, waterloo icehouse, and kerbey lane. the boys loved having them here and nathan and i loved it too! we played a couple killer games of rummikub and although nathan thought he was going to dominate, me and nana were both able to snag a win :) here are a few pics.

100th!!!

its my 100th post!! here are a few videos to make you smile.

first, owen just being a goofball...



and second, owen has figured out that when im nursing, he can do whatever he wants and i cant do anything about it. he dumped an entire box of chex cereal on his train table and on the ground. then, because he knows he normally cant play with the flyswatter, he found it and had a good ole time. i just caught the end of it, but here ya go...

Mom n Marla

What a great visit I had with my mommy and aunt marla. they drove over from florida on wednesday and left on saturday afternoon. we went to dinner at maudies, carinos, and jasons deli, ate amys icecream, went to the market and the jumpy gym, went shopping where owen rode the train, and got to hang out and chat lots! i have the BEST mom and aunt in the world! my favorite quote from the trip-

as im sitting on the couch holding caleb while he is sleeping...marla: "do you want me to put the bimbo under your arms?" lol that would be the boppy, but no thanks! easy mistake since we also had the bumbo around too. but quite humorous for me, as my mom and aunt try to use all the new baby gear terms :) the boys got spoiled as usual. owen's new thing is thomas the train, so we ended up buying him a a small set and a train table. aunt marla and mom got him thomas, gordon, and henry. he LOVES them and wakes up in the morning saying "choo choo!" i love this kid.

here are a few quick pics from the trip. it was so great, im already looking forward to being in florida for thanksgiving! theres also a pic of owen on his new train table... does he look excited to you?! :)
