No new pictures…we’ve been taking them, just haven’t had time to put them online.

So, now ALL the boys are up on the Movin’ 92.5 Baby Idol page (see prior post for link). Levi and Carlos are at the bottom of their pages. Fingers are crossed that our cutie patootie boys will make it to the finals where we can vote for them! They are the cutest kids on the site by far.

Baby’s got a visit with mom tomorrow that I’m taking her to, then I’ve got an open house at Dream Dinners (another free dinner to bring home!) and I’m hoping we can book a time to make a couple meals (or win a door prize of meals) but I’m not sure they are going to fit in with the no wheat/no dairy diet.

FOLLOW THIS LINK….it’s for the Movin’ 92.5 Baby Idol contest, then scroll down to the “T-Z”s and find Trey F. Pretty cool, huh? If it gets to the voting stage I’ll let everyone know so you can vote for him. I entered the other boys as well, but haven’t seen them on the website yet. Keep looking!

We’ve still got the baby…she’s still doing great and we are one big happy family. Honestly, though, we are not in the market for another baby to raise but it’s fun to have a new one around to snuggle.

The weekend was packed, but we had fun at Zoe’s going away party and the Guatemalan adoption group party. The boys are getting used to parties, we’re going to be in trouble! We ended the weekend with a nice, mellow dinner with Nana and Papa and had a pretty easy day today, getting back into routine. We went to the park and played and Mamas got our hair cut.

Here’s too a fairly normal week!

Spring is coming! We have flowers blooming in our front beds, it’s totally cool although it’s still cold as anything out. We have been trying to get the boys out to run off some energy everyday but it’s tough when it’s sunny, freezing and windy one day and pouring down rain the next. We’ve eliminated tv (except every other night they get to watch -art of a chapter movie before bed) and the boys are doing great with it. Mornings are hardest because they used to watch Dora while they ate breakfast, but change is good.

We still have the baby…not sure the plan for her at this point. She’s been amazing, really no problem at all. She only gets up twice at night, so lack of sleep hasn’t been too much an issue either. The boys have been sick with colds so they are getting up more during the night than the baby. So, we’re exhausted but it’s our own guys doing it to us. Looking forward to the weekend and getting some Zzzzz and maybe even napping when the kids do (oh, can you imagine!?)

Went to Macys (formerly known as the Bon) today since they were having a big sale on their clearance items and got each of the boys warm, winter Nike coats for $5.99! They were marked down from $80, so it was quite the deal. Put them on them after naptime and they loved them, and stayed warm outside. They are really big so hoping they will fit next year as well. Also got them some Seahawks jerseys and sweatshirts!
Busy weekend but should be fun….we have a a Guatemalan adoption group party on Sunday and then dinner at Nana/Papas Sunday night. Oh and our NAPS! Happy weekend all.

Random pics….things have been same ol same ol around here. Lots of kids! We still have the baby, she’s doing great. We don’t know anything about the case or when she might be going. It’s been fun having baby time and she’s a sweetie.
Abbie’s turning 5 tomorrow and the boys want to make her a cake. Seriously, a dog birthday cake? Oh well, we can try.

So far it’s been a lazy morning, we’ve been watching our home movies (thanks, Jenn for the cool movie….www.stellerproduction.com) and snuggling with the boys and girl.
Excited to go to the movies today with my parents, we haven’t been out to a movie in ages and Caroline is going to come watch the boys so we can go. Can’t wait! There are so many I want to see, but we rarely get the time.
After the movie it’ll be pizza, bathes and bedtime and then Dee and I are going to get to work on organizing the toys. As of now, it’s a nightmare and they really aren’t playing with things as much as they are dumping bins out. That’s gotta change…clean out the ones they don’t play with anymore or move some upstairs to the playroom.
Happy weekend all!

So the boys are all hyped up on candy hearts…and it’s only 6pm and they haven’t even had dinner yet. We’re in for a LONG night. Levi had a party at preschool, Carlos and Trey got Nana time and we are all just about to wind down, eat, take a bath and try to get things mellow so they can actually sleep tonight.

These boys dig Valentine’s Day!

Baby’s doing well, she has given us a scare by not eating a ton, but she’s starting to do better now and wakes up often and is totally alert. Very sweet baby!

Had a great evening, Nana and Papa came and celebrated Valentine’s Day early with the boys. They got new Chevron cars (their new favorite thing…keep you eyes open for them!) and we had a really nice dinner. The boys were tired from a busy weekend and went down easy to bed.

I’m off to bed, too…it’s Dee’s night to get up with the baby. Ah, sleep!

We have a girl! Got the call this afternoon for short-term care for a 2 day old baby. She’s a sweetie. She seems to sleep alot now, we’ll see when the evening hours roll around. Don’t think we can do the “sportscenter” treatment like we do the boys but maybe she’ll watch the Oxygen channel all night. LOL. This is our first girl…what do we do?!

Took the boys to the symphony today, made it a great outing with the “big boys”, me and Nana. They loved it, Carlos got into it and even did the hand motions, while Levi liked the music but spent most the time goofing off. Didn’t matter, though, it was a kid’s performance. Nana even treated them to gelato afterward, even though it was only 10:30 in the morning! What a treat. Got a little shopping in afterward, came home and got the boys down for a nap.

Carlos was already asleep when I brought the baby home, but Trey and Levi thought she was pretty cool. Carlos will go nuts in the morning when he sees her, he LOVES babies and has been asking us when we were going to get another one.
