Picture Dump

 Here are a few pictures I forgot to take off my phone when I did the blogs!

 Here are the pictures of our friends Lilly and Adela with Fasbee.

 This is Andrew's buddy Icing. Apparently he needed him to keep warm this night.

                                                        SISTER'S WEEKEND!!

                                              All geared up for a cold but sunny day out

                                  Finally having fun at gymnastics!

This is what Ryan does to the utensils if I let him play with the dishwasher. 

                                     "MOMMY!!MOMMY!! Dere hanging"

One tired boy

Ryan has been rocking the 430-530AM wake up time now for over a month. Lately, this scene equals one stubborn two year old who won't sit in the stroller or walk.  Not sitting wasn't so bad, assuming I had lots of time to just let him walk.  But not walking, well, that isn't going so well.  So this is the scene we get after the screaming makes me crazy and I take him out of the stroller.  He just stands there, until eventually he runs in the other direction. I am so getting pay back for how I acted as a child.  After this particular picture, I ended up carrying him 11 blocks to gymnastics, while helping Andrew push the stroller.  I thought I was going to die.

             And then this is the scene around 9am, when he is beyond exhausted.

                                     
                                                 It's a good thing he is so stinkin' cute.

Playground Much?!

With this weeks GORGEOUS weather, we were able to hit up a different playground every single day. With 500 of our closest friends.  Sorry these pictures aren't the best. They were all taken with my phone.

 It is hard to tell in this picture, but this jungle gym is MOBBED.

The most apple eating kids...

We finally signed Andrew up for Soccer. He is super excited and wants to take it and kick it everywhere. Fingers crossed he actually likes it when we start!

 Ryan is slightly obsessed with babies these days, especially Quinn. I am not sure if it is actually him, or his toys though. After they were over for dinner one night, Ryan's first words out of his mouth the next morning were, "Mommy, wea baby Kin go?"

 This is Andrew's buddy Zac from school and his little brother Josiah. They are from Australia here on a rotation as well. The four of these boys are so cute together.

                                                 Look who can do the MONKEY BARS!!

 This was a new playground we went to on the West Side and it had the biggest fireman's pole I have ever seen. Andrew was intimidated at first, but quickly got over it.

My favorite picture of the warm days out!

Meeting Daddy for lunch

After being here eight full months, we finally walked down to meet Chris for lunch. (And, I am not sure what all the complaining about was, its only 1.8 miles or so..)
The boys loved the new playground and getting to see Chris, and I LOVED getting to sit and eat lunch. Mary and Quinn met us down as well to eat with Dennis.

I can foresee a lot of these lunch dates when Chris has time!! On the way home, I finally stopped and picked up my first pair of Lululemon pants with my giftcard from Christmas. They are uber comfy!!

Sandbox and YOGO!

We had a BEAUTIFUL day today and made it out to play in the sandbox at the playground and got our first yogurt off the YOGO truck.  Delicious! Can't wait for more of those low cal yogurts.

Sisters WeekEND!!

Tracy and I headed down to Miami for three nights BY OURSELVES!! It was so much fun to just be able to talk and not be interrupted.  We didn't take many pictures, but here are a few. My friend Andrea lives in Miami for a few months out of the year and we got to meet up for lunch one day. We made it down to South Beach on the last night for a very different scene. 

We can't wait to do it again in the next year or two! It was so relaxing (I even read an entire book!)
