A Boy and His Tractor

It's no secret that Conner loves, loves, loves his tractor(s)! Santa Clause was great and brought him a farm tractor w/a trailer. He adores that thing. We were outside playing yesterday and I wanted to practice some back light. I asked him to sit on this one crack on the driveway. He parked his tractor and did THIS. All I did was LAUGH. I have a glimpse into his 16 year old self. LOVE this kid.

I don't do a lot of backlight because I don't really like the haze but it's my kid and he's funny...so I kept them.

 






365 project...week 4 and 5

I can't believe we are in February already and it's Tuesday and I'm just getting to this post. I am really, really enjoying my little project. I ordered 4x6 prints of all of these images to put into an album...ya know, just for us. It will be super fun to go back and look at all of these at the end of the year. I might have to write captions on the back to remember but that's ok. I want the memories.

I just realized that I am a week behind. ACK!!!

This is probably my favorite picture. The husband was on the couch watching football. Parker decided he wanted to lay and watch football too. 10 minutes later, they were both out!



I have nothing to say...I just love little feet.



Playing 'bingo' with Conner. We have a super why bingo game (it teacher letters) and he loves it! His little hands are also the only fat part left on him.



Getting "Stickered" up. love stickers.



Boys always have amazing lashes.



One of Parker's favorite things is a knuckle bump. Here he's waiting for Conner to give him a bump.



My kids were sick this week (bronchitis, gross) and I just wanted my baby to feel better.



Week four...As you saw, my kids had bronchitis. It was terrible. Really terrible. They coughed all the time, wanted me to hold them constantly and I'm only one mama! Thankfully after some antibiotics kicked in, they were back to their normal little selves.



Just happy to be outside.

Enjoying a little dinner.no words. love him.This child will do almost anything for some chocolate! He's a boy after my own heart. Breakfast and a belly button.Going for a little ride.

Bronchitis

yep, bronchitis. Both kids have it. It's awful. Conner literally laid around for 18hours or so. He's still not back to his normal energy level but he's getting there.

Parker never got as bad as Conner but he has wanted me to hold him more (oh how I wish I had a photo of that). Conner and I have been playing more games while Parker rests. He currently loves the Super Why Bingo. It's really fun and it teaches letters! score.







 

All I know is that 2 sick kids is tough on a mama! I hope I don't get it!

Week 3

I thought about and had every intention of doing these ON time. Right now, both kids have bronchitis. It's been very hard on me; they both just want to lay on me, climb on me and have me hold them all day and night.

I am really, really enjoying finding the right moment to snap during our every day craziness. This 365 has proven to be a fun thing for this mama!

Conner loves to play with all things that have wheels/wings...playing airplanes.



Parker loves my camera and is never, ever allowed to touch it. I let him 'borrow' my point and shoot so he could 'picture mama'. love this kid



Cartoons in mommy's bed. They always HAVE to get under the blankets. Yes, that's Conner's pillow from his bed. love that kid.



busted...sitting on the table.



Shaking glitter, helping me make snack bags for snack at school.



blankets, chocolate milk and laughter.

Fruit Loops

The other day, I decided that we should use the colors in fruit loops as a learning exercise for my kids. We started out by sorting them by color







Then I got out this..



which resulted in this...







We used the frosting as "glue" and made towers.







 

It was SO much fun, and so messy!!
