boy oh boy...

Our niece was over and she asked "Where are the princesses?" Her mom kindly replied "I don't think there will be princesses in this house for a long time".

Well I have forgotten how to braid hair but I do know how to create a monster truck out of a cardboard box, string and duct tape...

I have a house full of cars, trucks, trains and blocks.... therefore  I decided it  would only be fair if we had floral curtains, pink recliners and throw pillows everywhere... (and the throw pillows turn into a landing pad for jumping off the couch)

It seems boys are always squirming, kicking, tooting, burping, wiggling, jumping and grunting...well at least my boys are.

Clothes consist of blue, black, brown and grey sweats, t-shirts and crocs...So I make up for it and have skinny jeans in most colors : ) including purple.

Our backyard is full of mowers (real and toy), toy excavators, dump trucks, balls, shovels, sandbox, worms and tennis balls.

The boots and shoes are filthy, sandy and stinky always...

Mac and Jared would have a ham sandwich for every meal if I didn't intervene... I try to plate their meals and garnish sometimes...  but usually they say "what's that?"

Haircuts are an assembly line... buzz cut.

We are in constant motion all day long... all day...somehow even when we are sitting.

We have so many disney movies and the closest I get to princess is Tangled but somehow we only watch the part with the horse.

I am surrounded by extreme loudness (including their dad)... my boys are loud all the time, there is no whispering or quiet time... It's loud time all the time... There is no inside voice.

Their fingernails grow like weeds and their eyelashes are amazingly long and full it would make any girl jealous.

There is no combing or drying hair and it is wonderful.

We say "vroom vroom" daily.

I must say It is such a joy to watch these boys grow. They make me laugh everyday. I can only imagine what new adventures are to come.
