April 2013 Phone Photo Dump

How is it that April is nearly over already? Where did this month go???

Daddy has a work trip this month and at bedtime one of the evenings he was gone, we enjoyed fudgesicles...without him :(  But we sent him a picture to let him know we were thinking of him!

Not sure what happened to the saying April showers. In our area it was  more like April Tornadoes. We had one blow right on through the area...again while Daddy was out of town on the above mentioned trip.  I could write a whole post about the mayhem of me trying to rush an almost 11 year old dog and two toddlers into the basement while trying to think of everything I might need in case of an emergency or that we got barricaded into our basement for an extended period (flash lights, candles, water, snacks, pillows and blankets...madness I tell you).  I think I did ok...but I now feel the immediate need to create an emergency kit to keep on hand...you know...just in case anything like this happens again.  The boys probably just thought yep...Mom's acting crazy again...but we get to play for 30 minutes in the basement (with all of our outdoor toys that are wintering over down there) and NOT go to bed. AWESOME!!!

A random Friday morning play session...Coop sits and play with his trains nearly every morning for at least 30 minutes! :)

Close up!

Bedtime was near...and he was all hunkered down enjoying a little TV time.  I couldn't help but think..man its good to be little!

One of my new faves to grace our Wow Wall :)

This puzzle was in Owen's Easter basket..and he loves to put it all together.  He's getting so amazing at puzzles!! This one is fun to put together then read after. We love us some Dr. Suess!!

Saturday morning baking!

What happens when you have toddlers and can't hear your timer!!

You know it's bedtime at our house when the boys start doing hot laps around the living room, kitchen, dining room circuit.  We have tried to curb those laps and over all mayhem by creating pallets and laying down with a movie before we even start the process of going to sleep.  Look at Owen's face...
One point Kiddos...No points parents!

The following two pictures were a me, myself and I type of night. While Jer celebrated Josh's bachelor party...after the boys hit the hay...I enjoyed indulging in my favorite foods/drink and curling up on the couch with a good movie! It's the little things!

Ever had the Dominoes philly cheese steak pizza?  It's kind of unbelievably good!  And red wine/chocolate brownies?  Count me in!!

This bad boy is catching water in our fridge...that drips down into it. If it goes uncaught it fills up the whole fridge.  Time for a new fridge?  Possibly. 

And I think that wraps up my April photo dump. 

May, we are ready for ya!!  Bring us some fun :)
