Doughnuts with Dad

March 6, 2017

Happy Monday! Tonsillectomy recovery continues to go well. Maxwell is cruising through it with no complications and very little discomfort…thanks to the still round the clock pain meds we’re giving him! Hopefully the worst is behind us at this point.

In other news, Robert got to go up to school with Spencer on Friday for Doughnuts with Dad! I tried to get a pic of them before they left and, well…

Getting a picture of Spencer doing a “normal” smile is basically impossible so sometimes you just gotta go with the flow…

Spencer made Robert this awesome tie (I love the heart!)…

ha! For the record, Robert is actually pretty good at laundry! I do agree with Spencer on one thing though, we both love him because “he’s so good!” Yes he is! 🙂

When we were in Montgomery, Robert was going through some of his old stuff and found this class picture from when he was about 4 years old. We all cracked up because we’ve seen Spencer make this exact face numerous times!

I had to pull some proof to see the side by sides!

Hahaha! I love both of these little smirkers!

Ice Ice Baby

January 17, 2017

What a BEAUTIFUL long weekend we just had – sunny and 72 degrees in January! Even crazier is that we were covered in ice one week ago! Yep, last Friday the kids didn’t have school because of the impending winter weather. Now, nothing started falling until Friday night but when it started, it stuck! We woke up Saturday morning to 16 degree temps and everything covered in ice. Unfortunately it was just ice – no snow at all – so not a lot of fun for the kids. That didn’t stop them from wanting to get out and at least try to play in it…

It was bitterly cold. I think it was in the low 20s when we were out there playing. I used to live in NYC and could handle some majorly cold weather but I guess my bones are too Southern now because it was almost more than I could stand! It didn’t seem to bother the boys at all…they stayed out there forever trying to dig holes in the ice!

I love these pics of Spence…

and I really love this picture of Maxwell. If you zoom in you can even see his breath in the sunshine…

All in all the ice was fun, not as much fun as snow but we’ll take it. Of course, my favorite part was definitely this….

The first day of ice was fun…by the second day we were all going a little stir crazy! More to come tomorrow…

Brrrrrrr!

Christmas morning

January 6, 2017

We woke up Christmas morning happy to see that Santa had been there! We told Maxwell he couldn’t get up until 6:30 and he was standing right next to my bed at 6:30 and 30 seconds! We got everyone else up and made the kids wait at the stairs before coming down. I love these pictures…Maxwell blocking his eyes so he doesn’t see anything before he’s all the way down and Spencer helping Baby down the stairs. The best….

Santa was pretty good to everyone this year!

The kids checked out their haul – and honestly were a little disappointed! ha! Maxwell was missing his Millennium Falcon and Spencer had no remote controlled shark. hmmmm….

They still had plenty of fun stuff to check out though…

Baby loved her baby doll and did a good job feeding it and feeding herself! ha!

Stocking stuffers are always the best part in my opinion…

(yes, those are TicTacs Baby is dumping into her mouth!)

Just when we thought that was it, we discovered ole Santa had actually left two presents in my office! Sneaky Santa and two happy boys!

The remote controlled shark was hilarious for all! It took some getting used to to make it go but provided plenty of entertainment for sure! Check out this video.
