Ten on Thursday

1. I really wanted to post on Tuesday but my children basically trading colds & different levels of whining consumed all my time.

2. When our boys are sick they just like to be held, especially by daddy. On this particular evening Johnnie didn't feel well but Joey just wanted to join in too.3. When Grandpa was over for dinner last week Johnnie asked him to help him build a castle using his magna tiles. Grandpa's reply. "Where's the picture?" Oh Grandpa Johnnie just likes to use his imagination. Looks like you had fun though. 4. After living in our house for 5 years we have finally hung up our photos & therefore now live in a home. This collage of photos is on the wall behind my desk. I find myself turning around to look at it instead of working pretty often. All of the pictures are are either canvas wraps or wall standouts which are great because there is no framing necessary. And this is now the view I have as I walk down my stairs. Helps me to start off the day with a smile! 5. Johnnie is my little daredevil at the park. He likes to climb up everything & jump off. And now Joey has decided that he too wants to be a little daredevil. He has to concentrate really hard with his tongue out & everything. It makes for a very tiring day because I have to follow him all over the park making sure he doesn't jump off of stuff & hurt himself.6. Like father like son. Crazy faces all around.7. Joey enjoying his coupe in the backyard. His attempt at saying Cheese when he saw my camera. And then Jimmy had some fun inside of it too. His face may not look like it but he does love it. But in the last photo he was screaming because he wanted to get out.8. When Jimmy stayed home sick last week I took his 46 week photo. I think it is actually one of the only ones I have of him where he's not smiling. He was just whiny & so sad. All day. Luckily it was only one day & by the next morning he was back to his smily self. 9. Johnnie & Joey love to wrestle. And now it seems that Jimmy does too. He doesn't quite know what to do so he just kind of throws himself in the middle of it all. But they quickly showed him how it's done with tickles coming from every direction. But it didn't bother him. He just laughed & rolled around. I think this is going to be one crazy house. Even more than now.10. And last but not least...this past Sunday was my sister Kim's birthday. Happy Birthday to a beautiful sister & friend!
