Saturday-The Forgotten Valentine's Present Post

So, for Valentine's Day, Jake and I made these: They're heart birdseed biscuits. The instructions call for using a cookie cutter to make the shape, but I was at the Dollar Tree and bought heart shaped cupcake holders-worked out great! If you want to make these yourself, here's the link:

If that doesn't work, go to Familyfun.com (Family Fun magazine) and search for birdseed biscuit-They were a hit!

Friday "It's A Sunshine Day..."

It was nice and warm yesterday (a balmy 53 degrees!) so we took it outside!


Here's Liv-She's not sure if she should shovel or use it as a golf club. She was doing both. She was also using the wiffle ball as a golf ball. I guess that almost ensures that she doesn't miss it!

Jake and I were playing with these cone ball catchers-You press the button and the ball flies out. When I went to get the camera, he started practicing so he could kick my butt =)

A freshly shaven Jo Jo, enjoying the heat =)

Thursday-GO JAKE GO!!!

Jake had his diebels done the other day-He got 112 words per minute (by the end of May they should be between 40-60 words!) He's doing so great in school-I'm so proud of you, Bird!!!

100th Day of School!!!

Jake decided he wanted to bring 100 stickers to class, so he was counting them out in bunches of 10 this am =)

So This Is What You Get...

When you put a 2 yr old in her crib for time out ...

Apparently I did not realize she had a crayon in her hand. The only blank spot is where her pillow was. *sigh* The 2's were NOT like this with Jake. This is how they get you! Your first child is docile and sweet, goes with the flow, makes you think, "Hey, this mothering thing isn't so bad!" Then, you decide to have another, they come, and they are a whole different bird all together. Lord have mercy on my soul...

Monday-No School=Crazy House! (Video & Pic)

So, it was too cold to go outside, and Mondays are like hell days for me @ work, so needless to say, Jake spent alot of time playing the Wii, and I entertained Liv while I worked. By the end of the day, the kiddos were C.R.A.Z.Y!!! Here's a pic-Can you see the madness in their faces?

Here's a video I took-Jake had no idea I was videoing...Crazy, crazy kids...

Sunday-The Littlest CopyCat

This was taken the other day-I was laying on the couch with my heatbag across my chest because I was cold. When I got up to make dinner, I turned around and Liv was laying just how I was, with the heatbag on her. Of course, the heatbag covers most of her body LOL I just thought it was funny-She even had her feet crossed like I did LOL
