Jeff, Kim, and Eli!

We had the pleasure of getting about 24 hrs with the Adams. It is a blast as always, and ends to quickly. But first things first....we eat! They boys were so cute in their high chairs. Occasionally Eli would lean over and point to something and Noah would point back and they would touch fingers. I was cute.

Then off to all the toys. The push mower is a guaranteed favorite.

Later, we decided to make gingerbread cookies. Kim took over while I did dinner. I took this shot to reveal the flour that was all over her belly. She had no idea. Hehe.
Then Kim got exited and came up with these little numbers. She put peppermint ice cream in between and made sandwiches. Yum!
Then it was story time. Noah wanted to join in also. Especially since it was his book in the first place. We are still learning to share.
Back to more eating. They boys ate spaghetti. I had Kim dish them both up and when I returned Noah was covered in sauce and noodles! Eli was clean as a whistle.

After dinner Noah tore up all the toilet paper in the bathroom. Eli joined in with the dogs and it was everywhere!
Bath time! These two are so funny. They always want the same toy at the same time. Right now it was to the death over the watering can.

But all was well the next morning. Noah apologized with a big, huge, hug.

...and another one...
And he is down for the count. This is when Eli cried and it was over. Noah is a great hugger, he just never wants to stop. So we are trying to teach personal space. This might take a while.

Then they wanted outside. Even though it was raining. But we bundled up and out we went. They never seem to mind that is is freezing out and wet.

Eli wanted nothing to do with the camera. But I was trying to show the cool ball he found in the play set.
So fun to have everyone here running around outside.

Noah did discover something icky and handed it to me. I have taught him to give me things that he shouldn't play with and now he comes around the corner with some really gross things sometimes. Ahh boys.



Grandma Lil's 80th birthday!

We joined the family on Sunday to celebrate Great Grandma's birthday. We met at Anthony's in Seattle and had a room to ourselves. Noah went right for the bright, tall thing and started to take things off of it.


SURPRISE!!! There she is next to Tony. She had no idea we would all be here.
We had a great buffet of brunch things, some talked about fun memories and we looked at great pictures from the past.


Yummy cake!

Jess and Noah had fun. Although all Noah can see is the piece of cake right next to him.

Ok. This is so funny. Noah found a headband that I just bought and wanted it on his head. He ran around laughing and taking it off over and over. He thought this was so funny and so did I!
