Here we go....

I can't believe how long it has been! With 2 boys and 2 cats sprinting around the house, going back to work full-time , and both Matt and I trying to finish our degrees....our family blog has been put on the back burner.

I just got done catching up on my two favorite families who also blog, and I am remembering how therapeutic blogging is! So (hopefully) I will get this blog up and running again! It only took me 20 minutes to remember my user name and password! HA!

Proud mama!

Check out the 2nd place winner for youth..... http://www.audubonportland.org/raptor/photo This proud parent moment was brought to you by the letters PTW!!!!

Keaton

I know crib bumpers can suffocate babies, but I think they were made for other reasons too.

Keaton slept very soundly this night, maybe because he was stuck all night?

Valentine's Day Weekend

We took the boys to Seaside for Valentine's Day weekend. Parker had a blast playing video games at the arcade, feeding fish to the sea lions, riding the carousal 100 times, flying kites, and playing in the sand. Keaton hated the wind, but loved the sand!

Boys and their football

We quickly moved Keaton "down wind" from his brother

When you're 3 you can NEVER ride a carousal enough times

Bumper cars are more fun with teenagers than young children.

Parker had a blast whenever it was "big kids."

At the park before it was time to go home.

Super Bowl Sunday

Notice no captions? I'm getting really pissed at blogger.

grrrrr

I give up on that last post. No matter how many times I tried to "fix" it and make everything look all pretty, the moment I clicked "submit post" it gets all discombugulated. My blood pressure has risen. It's not worth the headache.

At age 31, Melissa tries her first Jell-o shot. (not a big fan) Parker gets to skip school to go to the zoo. (it stopped rainning for a day) Petie contemplates tearing down our peace banner....
