Bathtime Take 2

Well, since I for sure have decided to re-do the bathroom we had another bath photo shoot. This time with Mommy's BIG camera! I didn't want to use the flash with any of them so my camera is better for that. Anyways, I am sure you don't care about the specs! Now I just have to decide which ones to do. I am going to do one wall of all black frames in different sizes (mainly 5x7) and styles. I am going to paint the walls a color.... haven't decided what yet..... a really light turquoise..... maybe a really pale blueish gray!?!?!? Any ideas? Then have everything else black and white... towels etc. White shower curtain (with a clear liner on a separate rod) so that maybe, just maybe, Tiana will let us close them in to keep the water INSIDE the tub! (She is rather terrified of shower curtains being closed)

Today we made.....

Today we made an amazingly HUGE mess!!!! Oh yeah, and cookies! Keaton was as per normal my big helper, counting everything that went in, getting the eggs (even cracking one before I could stop him) and dumping everything in. We added the flour and he ever so helpfully turned it on....... without the lid! Needless to say flour was EVERYWHERE. Good thing we both got a big laugh out of it. He did wait until I started laughing though before he let out his giggles!
After we cleaned it all up (it was EVERYWHERE) Tiana woke up and came out to join us. There was some crushed candy in a bowl on the counter. She was trying to see what was in the bowl.... candy (powder) everywhere. She was quite worried until she realized that she was covered in little pieces of candy cane. Then it was all good, with her tongue out licking off her hands, shirt etc! All in all we made huge messes, had huge laughs, and then enjoyed cookies before bed!

First Tooth

Well, Camden finally has his first little tooth in! He was SERIOUSLY cranky today and so I decided to check the tooth situation this evening.... yep just barely poking through. The second bottom one may be through also but I couldn't quite tell.... it was close anyways. Two teeth coming up at the same time.... that explains the crankiness.
Also, a couple more things Tiana says that is cute, today it was "snowies" (snowing) and anytime she sees something interesting "wook it". She often tells us to look at this and that in the car now especially with the pacifier being a thing of the past. All of the sudden she is our talkative little girl in the backseat.

Valentine's Day

I found the cutest heart lollipops at Target and just had to do some photos of the kids for Valentine's Day. They were so fun and the kids just had a blast.


For the first time in quite a while, I got some adorable photos of Keaton. He usually doesn't want anything to do with photos but this time he was oh so cute.




We then got all the kids in for some sticky fun!













Nana had wanted a photo with the kids.... I forgot until they were all a mess!
Love this one! Camden loved the lollipop and had just HAD it with the kids sharing with Nana but not him!!

Bathtime

The kids all take a bath together and boy oh boy do they have fun. Often water is all over the bathroom.... which we have TRIED and TRIED to prevent... but for a half hour to 45 minutes every night they all have a blast!

It is quite hard to get a photo of Camden since he is quite intent on getting his fair share of water splashed everywhere.
Loves.



So how cute would it be to redo the kids' bathroom in all black and white with some photos like this!?!?

Enjoying the Weather

This last week it finally dried out enough for the kids to play outside. It has been plenty warm but we have had such a muddy mess in the backyard that the only time I would want them outside was if we could come in and go straight in the bath afterward! So while Camden slept the afternoon away the rest of us had fun outside.

Our monkey!



She spent a good half hour pushing her "princess" down the slide then going down after.... and repeat!
Jumping in the puddle.
New hair-do.
LOVE this photo!
And this is what her hair looks like AFTER her nap! YIKES! Bad photo but it kind-of begins to show how frightful it really was.


Now that he is on the move he has been getting himself into some rather interesting predicaments!
He wasn't too concerned.... just stuck and he patiently waited while I took photos and laughed and then helped him out!
