pink AND blue shower

my cousin, kelli, is having twins...baby boy & baby girl!! she's made it to 31 weeks and is doing remarkably well. we had a baby shower for her today that turned out great. she got lots of wonderful things for the babies and is now just counting the days until she can breathe again..she/they are running out of room!

the pink and blue pretzel bouquets i made since the cookie bouquets were a flop...

bedtime conversation

eli: mom, today trenton's mom had to come pick him up and i saw her. my friend, luke, said she's hot.

me: really? do you know what "hot" means?

eli: yeah, it means you love her and you think she's beautiful.

me: well, sort of. "hot" isn't really the nicest way to say it though. it would be better to say "she's pretty" or "she's beautiful".

eli: mom, i think you're hot.

me: (chuckle) well, thanks baby. that's nice of you to say, but like i said, if you want someone to think that you mean it in a good way, then you should probably should chose a different word besides "hot".

eli: yeah, cuz you don't want them to think you're being mean.

me: yeah.

oh, the wonderful things little boys bring home from school from other little boys. and to think, this is just the beginning!

vitamin D

a little sunshine sure does a body good, even if you're a furry friend.
oliver has found a place on the landing of our stairs where the sun hits during the middle of the day. so this is where he's been hanging out.
he obviously loves it and is wishing for spring just like everyone else.

2nd cousins

the boys love playing with their cousins, but we just don't seem to get a chance to spend near enough time with them! today though, we got to have jerry's cousin, wayne and his family up for the day and the boys were counting down the minutes til they arrived. they all got along so well and had a great time. here is eli, caleb, and abby on their dinosaur hunting adventure. josie and abram became quite the little pals which was so cute! and baby joel enjoyed toys, toys, and more toys!
