Some Favorites Right Now

I am sorry this blog has been neglected lately...haven't taken many pictures, not very inspired or imaginative, and maybe just a little lazy but here is a new post again. :o)

Some of our favorite things right now!!

1. These boys getting along!! When they do it almost equals bliss for me! :o) Fin does do a good job playing w/ him but J is still learning the ropes of "no" and  leaving big bro's stuff alone!

Wrestling on the floor-usually lasts a few minutes before someone headbutts the other and crying ensues.

Playing in an upright tunnel
Jay is actually laughing while Fin scrubs off all the callouses on his head. Jay loves baths now-so happy he does finally!

 2. My Kitchen Curtains! It took me about 3 months to get them done but they are done (almost-I still need to hem the 3rd one)! I am so thankful for my friend/co-worker Chris who did most of the work~ otherwise I'm not sure what the shape of them would be if she hadn't had done them!



3. this little guy!  First, he still eats pretty much anything I put in front of him and doesn't say it's gross! :o) Second, he is always climbing into things and sitting a spell!
 
It's Spaghetti Claus!!

Where is this wagon headed?
Baby stew, anyone?


4. San Fransisco! Well, that is one of Justin's favorite's right now. He was able to get cheap tickets and see his friend Ty who lives there. Ty's bro/Justin's friend also went. They were able to go to the Bobcat/Sac St football game, another college fball game, a Stanford bball game, horse-races, do go-carts, and eat at a lot of  yummy places. He says he wants to take me now...we will see...  :o)
Chinatown
Eating a burger we saw on the show "diners, dives, and drive-ins"...I'm just a little jealous


4. Giveaways!!   I have found the new  hobby of entering giveaways!  It is so easy and addicting AND I have actually won 2 things~a nice credit to Shutterfly & a Totsy seat=total about $84.  I think it is a safe way to get stuff...you basically just give a name and email and then there is a drawing! If anyone wants to dabble in it, I can give some good sites to you but if you win anything you have to share w/ me~it's only fair! :o) Well, ok, I will just you 2 of the sites right now....tightwadinutah (a site that lists lots of giveaways and has a few of her own) and realmomreviews.  I think if you just type these into your search engine they should come up. Most of the sites giveaway baby/kid stuff but there is a lot of other things too! So if you are friends w/ me on FB, you probably have noticed I have "liked" a lot of pages-that is b/c for a lot of the giveaways you need to like the blog. All of the ones I have liked are either coupon/saving related or mommy so nothing to weird (i hope).


5. Crafting~ I have some ideas/projects in the works. I just need to find the time, space, and energy to do them. So much fun and so many fun ideas especially w/ Christmas coming up!!

Well, there are few of the faves around here right now. Have a great week and enjoy all the upcoming holiday festivities!!

More Pictures

 I don't really have much to write lately so here are just more pictures of our family!


Our football team...I dressed up as a ref and Justin as the coach!
Before we left-adjusting and getting pumped up for getting treats! It was pretty cute...at first J was pretty unsure about the whole deal but by the 2nd house he was trotting up sidewalks and up to the door w/ his had outstretched!

Our little monkey enjoying a banana!

Justin and Mike tearing off the roof-the weather FINALLY cooperated and he was able to completely finish it this past weekend! It looks great too! ;o)

A favorite nighttime game-riding the motorcycle. J is starting to get in on the action too!

My lil' snuggler-he is getting 4 (!) teeth in right now so he is extra snuggly and not that happy of a camper!
