Baths and Blankets

If there are two things my boys love it is bath time and their blankets. Will all smiles before getting into the bath. My lil' love bug.

Lukey has always loved his blankets. He just loves to walk around with it and cuddle. I think because we took his nuk away when he was 18 months he found comfort in his blankets. Will never took a nuk so maybe that is why he loves his blanket too.

Just walking around hugging on the blanket.

These two also have their own beanbags but always seem to want to sit in the same one together.

Luke took Will to their room to get Will's blanket.

Now they both walk the halls with their blankets.

My precious boys and these precious moments will come and go so fast I want to remember them and one day when they are older show them how cute and special the little things in life are. Like walking around the house with a blanket.

Phoenix Children's Museum

I took Luke and Will to the museum again with Grandma Francie. We met Steff and the kids there too. Luke and Will always have so much fun there and never want to leave.

Lukey made a pizza and brought it over to the brick oven.

Will is now 18 months and he wants to do everything his big brother does. He keeps up pretty good too. He had a lot of fun playing at the museum he is no longer an observer of the fun he is a participant.

Emma giving Will a ride through the car wash. HE was all SMILES all day. He is such a happy boy even when he is not feeling well he is my little soldier.

Luke giving Emma a ride through the car wash now. I love how she is holding on so tight it was cute.

Grandma Francie hates to have her picture taken but she likes to take pictures of us. Thanks Grandma for taking our picture.

The boys were pooped out they were fast asleep in the car on the way home.

Build a Bear

Grandma Francie and I took the boys to Build a Bear to make their first bears. They got bears as gift before but never made their own. Grandma Francie treated the boys to their special bears/doggie.

Luke loved it and helped make his bear Will is still a little too small for the process but picked out his doggie which we named Do Do and Lukey picked out this cute bear Bo Bo.

Will just wanted to run around the store and knock everything over. He was hugging his doggie when they were done stuffing it.

The hit was playing on the computers. Thank goodness we had the store to ourselves. The boys love their new bear/dog thank you Grandma Francie!

Lisa and the girls were over for dinner the other night and I took this precious picture of Will all snug with Addison. She just loves the boys and is so sweet!

The Shrine Circus was in Town

Maya, Steff, and I took Karina, Luke, and Emma to the circus.

Maya and I had this conversation on the way over there. M: I hope this is inside. C: Of course it is they can't have a circus outside when it is 108 degrees outside. M: Yeah your right! Well was I wrong. It was outside in a covered tent with no breeze. I can't believe we lasted as long as we did. We were lobsters when we got back to the house.

We got rides back and forth to my car we played the pregnancy card. Yes we are two pregnant woman with two kids. Well it worked and it was great!

Karina, Luke, and Emma trying to stay cool

Lions, Tigers, and Bears!

Luke and Emma having a serious conversation.

Some Clowns

At one point they had 4 motorcycles in a cage going around and round. It was very loud as you can see Lukey covering his ears.

The kids loved the music and it got them dancing away. Luke had so much fun with his two favorite girls Karina and Emma.

There is the Bear leashed to a chair. This Bear was downing a box of Raisin Bran. So at least it wasn't hungry for people seeing there were a lot of people around.

Busy Boys

I got the boys this lego table to play with and they just love it. They are either sitting and playing or pushing the chairs up and down the hallway. Either way the new table was a hit!

At My Gym I love this action shot of Luke jumping into the balls midair.

The boys really have so much fun at My GYM they get so excited when we go on Wednesdays.

Will discovered the mirror at My GYM and couldn't get enough of looking at himself. Just like his daddy.....and mommy. Ha Ha!

Papa Stevie is Here

On Wednesday the boys and I went to pick up Papa Stevie from the airport. Lukey was watching the gate for him to come out and ran to him as soon as he saw him.

Lukey and Will were so happy to see Papa Stevie and so was I.

Will just loves Papa Stevie he jumps right up next to him and always wants

Papa to hold him.

On Thursday while Luke was a school Will got a hold of Lukey's new bear Bo Bo and was carrying it around the house. Something he would not be getting away with if Lukey was home.

Papa on the phone with Jo Jo saying goodnight and Will all snug in Papa's arms.

Lukey and Papa Stevie on the phone with each other.

It was funny Luke kept hanging up on Papa.

Papa is her for awhile so we will have more pics to post later.

Windgate Kids Carnval

I took Luke to our neighborhood carnival on Saturday while Will and daddy watched football. Luke wanted to go up this water slide until he got to the top and he didn't like all the water spraying everywhere. So he came back down. Karina on the other hand is a little water bug she must of gone down the slides a million times.

There she goes again she was having so much fun. I wish Lukey went down with her. She even took him by the hand but he was not sure of it so he came back to me. AHHH LUKEY!

Iron Man and a few other characters made an appearance. I can't imagine how hot he was in that suit.

Slushy #1

Slushy #3

We were fixtures at the slushy booth. Lukey made his own fun in Slushy Heaven.

Thanks Maya, Sameet, and Karina for coming to meet us.

Lukey always loves to see his Karina!

My Family Photos

We had our family photo shoot for the Windgate Magazine. The photographer Courtney Sargent did such a great job and is great working with children & even dogs. I ordered these prints and she gave me the pictures to put on my blog too. I highly recommend her to photograph your family.

She took pictures of the boys doing what they do. They are always eating and Will is always drinking out of my water bottle.
