strawberries!

We headed to Waller Farms yesterday to do some strawberry picking.  Jackson collected rocks and mimicked the cows by getting on all fours and eating the grass, what a smart boy.  Nash snoozed under the barn with Ms. Waller, also a smart boy.  But Charlie and I got lots of delicious strawberries.  Nothing goes with strawberries like pound cake, whipped cream, chocolate syrup and a cup of coffee, so that is what I had for breakfast.  I am thinking about spinach strawberry salad for lunch with a glass of strawberry champagne.  Tis the season!  Send any recipes my way.

 Found the perfect one!

Dad, I wan wocks.

night-night

Speaking of bed time, Jackson is still in his crib.  I see no reason to move him to a bed until he starts climbing out of his crib.  I am sure he is capable of doing this, he just doesn't know it yet.  What he can do is climb into 'da bebe's' crib.  Poor Nash, he is safe no where.  

bed time

Bed time around here is always chaotic.  All of us stay up too late and get too fussy and too tired before we go to bed.  But every now and then I walk into a sweet moment like this.  

my sweet boys

2 months!

Yesterday marked 2 months with my cheesy monkey.  He checked out great at the doctors office and is going to give Jackson a run for his money.  We have got some big boys.  Nash weighs 14.8lbs (98%), 23.8 in. long (82%), and 16.5 in. of a head still full of hair (92%).

Oh ma, it looks like I have a toupe!

Whew,  I am ready for someone to walk me around in my car seat for an hour.

Really, that is enough.

ohh nooo

Nap time around this house is a hit or miss.  Some days are spent trying to get Nash to nap, then Jackson, then Nash, then it is 5:00 and no one has really had a good nap.  Jackson has not realized that if he lets Nash nap then we can play.  I have to put Nash in his carrier and hide him in different places around the house.  Jackson walks around 'ohhh nooo, where's da bebe?  ohhh nooo.'  Nash's favorite snooze spot was our bathroom. I would turn on the shower and the sound always knocked him out.  Well it looks like we ran the water a little too long, yep water is currently leaking through our den ceiling.  Lets hope this is an easy fix OR we could go ahead and re-do our bathroom.  Just something simple...

weekend!

Charlie is in the Caribbean for one of his best friends weddings.  I hope he is enjoying his rum & punch, peaceful dinners, basking in the sun, sleeping in... I really do, I am not one bit jealous, really.  I thought I could handle it, just me and my boys hanging out for a few days.  But my parents are going to visit my sister in Wilmington and suggested we come along.  I have never packed so quickly.  Cheers to the weekend and lots of helping hands!

Attack of the ginormous babies!

Alouette

I can spend a lot of money at Target.  I can spend a whole lot of money at Target when no babies are involved.  At least twice now my darling mother and mother-in-law have offered to watch both babies (as long as they have been fed) while I run errands.  Ahm, hell yeah.  I mean, are you sure you don't mind?  I will be quick, and have my phone on... and peace out!  I like to roll down all the windows, pump up some ghetto rap music, drink a caffeinated mocha frappaccino and take the long way there.  Because I am crazy like that.

And this commercial makes me smile!

smiles

We have got ourselves a smiling little boy. Every now and then I have a rough morning - afternoon - evening - who am I kidding, day.  Nash always seems to know when to flash me a sweet, sparkling eyes, dimple chin, sideways smile.  He can change a mood in an instant.  We all need a little more baby in our life.
