Hello there handsome!!! You are a little ball of sunshine! Yesterday I was making cake pops and brownie pops for the kids teachers. I'm not sure why I tried making them when I was home alone with the boys but I did ;o)  The first time I turned my back Weston was coloring on the table with a crayon. After that he played with his brother for a while. I ran out of room to put these cake balls so I put some on the kitchen table (waiting for the chocolate covering to dry). I look over and theres Weston, shoving them in his face. Chocolate everywhere!!! Allover the table, his face, the chair, clothes. All I could do is laugh. He was looking at me like....well....if your going to be dumb enough to leave them where I can get them.....then I'm going to eat them. He is a litle cakeball freak  ;O)  Gata love him though. He's so darn jolly.

ROOOOAAARRRR! Don't let that scary face fool ya  :O)  He's the cutest little monster!!!
We have this elf on the shelf that Andon absolutely loves. Well every morning he gets up and looks for where the elf moved to (trying to remember to move that darn elf is hard...haha). Anyways, Andon was pretty sassy in the morning. He was pretty naughty to Grandpa and I. I thought I would try to leave out some candy coal and see if that helped him lose his sassy mouth. Well he came home from school and I said to him that his elf went to go talk to Santa when he was at school and told him about the morning we had. He saw the coal and started laughing hysterically and was like.....this isn't real coal this is chocolate. He was so happy he got chocolate coal. We laughed for a few minutes pretty hard. That sure backfired on me...haha. It was worth a shot. Andon is to smart to fool.
Even though he is making a scary face here he is still as cute as can be. I can't wait to give him the Sonic walkie talkies for Christmas. Actually Weston got them for him  ;o)  He picked out some Cars and Cars soap for Weston all by himself. Too cute!!! Wes absolutely loves Cars!!! Looks like we will be having a Cars bday soon for him  ;o)

What are you doing with your St. Nick candy before dinner cuteness?  We found Weston eating his candy right before dinner...haha. He was in Andons room, maybe he thought he could blame his brother...haha. They have become so close lately. It's way to cute. I hope they continue to have that special bond forever. However Andon does want a few more brothers he said....haha. Andon seems to have a soft side for Wes now. Not that he didn't before but it's like he really watches out for him and they play together all night. Cutie pies!!

Christmas concert 2011 ~ K4

Andon sang Angel Band and We Wish you a Merry Christmas. They even did sign language to We Wish you a Merry Christmas as they sang. We were so proud of him!!!  He's the cutest kid in his class :O) I made cake pop, cookies and mini cupcakes for his class after. On the way home he told me my cookies tasted like tacos.....maybe I should of taste tested those.....hahaha. Wes was entertaining the crowd too! He was dancing like crazy. We had to give him a sucker so he would stay by us otherwise he is a runner big time. We tried to get his pick but we had the big lens on so it was too blurry. He was might cute too. He was walking the isle waiving at everyone.  We can't wait for Christmas!!! Andon wants to sleep in the livingroom and wait for Santa....hopefully Santa will be sneaky ;o)  Andon changes what he's into from day to day so hopefully Santa heard the important things. Wes is really into Cars, block, books and legos so he's easy this year.

(The kid on the left behind the microphone is Jonah, we hear about him everyday!!!, he wants to do everything Jonah does.....lol...even hot or cold lunch). Andon will be going to a new school and finishing all of his grade school there next year. We don't have a K4 in our area so that's why we sent him to a private school this year. All of his friends from his daycare will be giong there (the public school). He gets to go to summer camp with all of them before school (K5) starts so that will be good. I was worried about switching schools on him. Summer camp will be so fun (it's at his old daycare/school). He will get to go on 3-4 field trips a month. He will only be going 3 days during the summer but he loves it there. When we drop off Weston he has to go visit all of his "old" friends. I can't believe how fast he's growing up!! Both of them are!

Andon before his Christmas concert (12/13/11). He is so darn handsome!!!! He did a great job!!!

Weston LOVES bath time. (taken 12/5/11, 18mos) Sometimes he goes in the bathroom and goes nuts to get in the tub. He's trying to talk so much more now. He tries to sing scoobie scoobie doo and it's the cutest thing ever. Weston is really into copying everything Andon does. They pretty much play together all night. Sometimes Weston likes to play with his cars alone for a break. Westons favorite toy is cars, while Andon changes from day to day  ;o) Weston is really turning into a big boy. He's getting so independent. This morning he was eating his cereal all by himself, spoon and all. While I love to see them grown up I wish I could slow it down. I love that Weston is getting a little older though so him and his brother can play. Andon has been patiently waiting. When we wrestle at night time I think Wes is the ring leader. He doesn't hold back and just runs and flies on us. It's hilarious. He has such a bubbly personality and his smile is so precious. Weston has had no ear infections since his ear tubes (yay!). He was just in to the doctor and he weighed 28lbs!! He's not that far from Andon...hehehe. Andon is a little over 40" and can't wait until he's 42" so he can go on the black anacanda in the Dells.

The worlds cutest 5 year old!! (taken 12/5/11). Andon had his first date last weekend. He his head over heals for a older girl. He loves and wants to marry Clydessa which is his cousin Alexas friend (she's 9). She came over to pick him up, funny thing is Andon had to ride in a carseat for his first date. He went to hang out at grandma and grandmas with the girls. He helped them with their Monster High project for school. Later I got a call asking if he could sleep over. We went to drop off his overnight bag and saw he was eating a cousins sub.....ham/cheese and pickles. He normally eats meatball subs and only eats the meatballs out of them. Guess who ordered ham/cheese with pickles....yep...Clydessa. Later that night he asked her if he could get her a bowl of icecream. A few days later we were in the car and he told me Clydessa was being mean. I asked why was she mean. He replies....well....she was acting like she didn't even have a boyfriend and she does.....it's ME!!! I laughed so hard. Andon is the funniest little boy I know. Weston is starting to be just as funny too  ;o)  They definately entertain us. The next night at dinner he asked if he could spend his $6 on a girl from school. What a ladies man....hehehe.

Boys being boys.....what big muscles!!

We hope you had a great Thanksgiving. We have so much to be thankful for!! These amazing boys are the center of our lives and make us so happy!!! We are so grateful....everyday!!  Andon likes to be wrapped up like a snug bug in a "rug". When Kevin was done he kissed him. Then Weston kept kissing him too. It was too cute! They play together all the time now. Andon wants bunk beds so bad so I told him then they would have to share a room. He said...ok...but when Weston is 2 because then he'll be a toddler. We will have to put Weston in a bed soon because I think he's pretty close to being able to crawl out of his crib. He's such a monkey.

Watching youtube together. Andon is really into the video  ;o)  (Andon 5, Wes 18mos)

Wes is the dancer of the family. Everytime he hears music he goes to town dancing. He's so funny with his shoulder moves. He really gets into it.

Andon loves to watch toy reviews on youtube. Recently he started letting me record them and wants me to all the time. Before I would catch him doing them and he would get to embarassed. This is one of my favorites. I love when he says.....you best pop this open. He's such a creative kid.

Weston having fun at the camp fire (10/14/11, Pride of America Campground)

Andon with Gina's birthmom (Donna) when we were camping. (10/14/11)

I got my first big boy cup at McDonalds. I love to drink out of straws like all the big kids. I also love to steal a bun off of mamas burger. I love bread!!!

Fish eyes. We got a new camera and were playing with it. Andon thought this was sooo funny.

11/8/11 Today Wes gave grandpa a fat bloody lip again. Just in time for him to go to his dentist appt. Weston is in the stage of throwing things and grandpa seems to be the target. Today it was a block and the other day it was a car. We're working on that ;o) Last night I was wrestling with Andon and Weston was laughing hysterically. He decided to help his brother out and keep chucking his nuk at me. Silly boy. Those boys love to wrestle!! It's so cute that Andon is taking Weston under his wing now. He actually said he would like 100 more brothers...hahaha. Weston makes our dinners so much fun. He sure lights up the room. He's always smiling/laughing. It's so cute that he copies everything his big brother does. We are looking forward to Christmas this year w ith the boys. Weston will really be into it I think. I'm curious to see what he will do with Santa this year. Last year he didn't make anything of it. He was still the best Christmas present ever!!! Both of the boys are. We are so thankful we have them in our lives. They so speical to so many people.


11/7/11 This morning I was getting Andons backpack/thermos ready for school and I gave him clean clothes and clean underwear. I told him to make sure he changed his underwear. He came home and dropped his pants right away for grandpa. Oooops, he wore two pair of underwear to school. He put the clean ones right over the dirty ones. He's done that before. Too funny! I bet he was waiting all day to get home and take a pair off.
Tomorrow report cards come out. Andons first real report card ;o) Conferences are Thursday so this should be interesting. They get sent home with yellow slips if they do something they shouldn't and red is "really naughty" as Andon would say. Well so far this year Andon has had 5. Some of them are rediculous. While we appreciate the teacher telling us we don't beleive he should get in trouble again at home after getting in trouble at school. We do talk about them and what was wrong. The other day he got one because they were sorting m & m's and he put some in his pocket. When the teacher asked him he said he didn't know they were in his pocket. So we got a note home saying that he was lying. I was a little defensive of her calling him a "liar". I don't understand why you would let 4 and 5 year olds count m & m's and not eat them?? Two other kids didn't get caught so Andon couldn't understand why he got caught and they didn't. I ended up emailing the teacher about it and we have to discuss it at conferences. Poor Andon ran in the house and said....hold on...I have to throw something away before you look in my back pack. Rotflmao. It was funny. They are starting to affect him negativly and he's not liking school. Then he came home with a "white slip" and he was sooo excited that he got a "white slip". He's like...hurry up and read it....he was soooo proud. How could I tell him it was just a line he had to memorize for school....hehehe. I think the yellow slips are overused in his class. He got another one for yelling in the hall because there were spiders for halloween decorations. We just reminded him not to talk in the hall. Today he wanted to go to school looking like shark boy so I geled his hair standing up all over. Hopefully mama doesn't get a yellow slip for that....hahahaha. Hopefully the teacher will let up a little on these slips. These kids are too little to dislike school. At least send them a good slip once in a while then. I can picture Andon figuring out to get rid of them on the bus before he gets home...hahaha. He's so smart. He's always been ahead of all the other kids. He may not be the best in art and working on writing but he's sure a smart kid!! Handsome little stinker too!!

Boys will be boys. We have wrestling matches most nights with the whole family :O) It's so fun. Wes is starting to get the upper hand lately with Andon. It's too cute.

Bathtime fun! They usually soak the floor  :O) (10/2011)

Uh oh!! (10/25/11)

These two are attatched at the hip from day one. They sleep together every night  ;o) (10/28/11)

Was I not suppose to hop in the tub with my clothes on and daddys flashlight?? I took my shoes off at least.  (10/30/11)

Our little librarian on the hayride. (9/2011)

Andon hanging out picking apples :O)  He's such a happy boy!!! Cute one too :O)  (9/2011)

The kids at the apple orchard. Apple picking was so much fun. I'm not sure why the picture won't turn. (9/2011)

What a bunch of handsome little guys. They play so nice together now. Well they wrestle like crazy but they both love every minute. It's so cute to watch them bond now. They are definately buddies. Weston copies everything Andon does. It's hilarious!! (10/2011)

Wes didn't feel so good so I stayed home with him. We had to run to the store for some tylenol and a few things. He kept putting his blanket on his head if we got near the freezer section. awwww...cutie.

Andons cousins slept over after his bday party at the house. We carved pumpkins and made a mess. I had made angry bird balloons but they sank after I put tape on them. So we sucked out the helium and his cousins put the angry bird faces on theirs  :O)  Wes didn't make it up to the pumpkin part of the night.

Wes LOVES cars. He even loves reading daddys car magazines  ;o) (10/2011)

Wes shared his brothers morning birthday cupcake (10/8/11)

Andon after he got out of bed on his birthday. We sang Happy Birthday!! (10/8/11)

Andon had his 5th birthday at Chuck E. Cheese and had a blast. His favorite part he said was the ticket blast booth and when Uncle Vinny came. He won over 800 tickets and got a angry bird and slinky he destroyed in minutes  ;o) I can't believe our little man is 5. He was starting to get a cold and told us his voice was changing because he was 5. Then asked us to start calling him Fred. What a character!!

We took our cute little doggie trick or treating with us this year :O) (Wes, 17mos, 10/30/11). He didn't care about the candy. One house had one of those little kids bubble cars. Well Wes tried to get in and take it for a ride. Too cute.

Andon was The Beast from Wolverine for Trick or Treat. We went trick or treating with his cousin and had a fun time. We were able to get out there before the rain came. (10/30/11, 5yrs old)

Weston with his cousin Alexa at the pumpkin farm. He likes to say....ohhhhhhh alot. (17 mos - 10/2011)

Andon and his cousin AJ at the pumpkin farm (10/22/11)  We had so much fun.

This video is from about a year go but I finally figured how to upload it. The file was always to large. It's one of my favorites!!! Andon loves Michael Jackson. His lips at the end are the best. Then theres little Wes cheesing with his face full of cereal at the end.

Tough guys get dirty (Fremont, WI - Jellystone park 9/2011)

Wes loves to play peek a boo threw the kitty hole. He sticks his forhead in there for kisses and laughs so hard. We even get a foot in our nose sometimes. Little stinker kicks us. Who would of thought we get so much fun out of the cat hole with the boys. His brother decided to crawl in it going up the stairs one day and got stuck. Wasn't easy getting him out....hahaha.

9/2011 Daddy and the Grandpas built a nice big jungle gym...the biggest one Menards had but Andon still loves the baby swing in the tree. The boys both race for it. ;o) Andon making a scary face. We can't get him to take a "normal" picture for the life of us. But that's ok, it shows his personality and how he was at this time  ;O)

Here's our little climber! Weston loves to climb on EVERYTHING. We have to put our chairs on our countertops because he won't stay off the table or counters. Little Monkey. Last Tuesday I was talking to my mom in the morning and she said.....Wes is on his way, I have to go and tie up the chairs. Even grandma has to tie her chairs. He's is so obsessed with the kitchen table and now he pushed chairs everywhere and climbs.

Weston is such a funny boy. He's always trying to make people laugh. He puts his blankie no his head and walks around and walks into things on purpose. Then he pulls it off and laughs hysterically. He has the happiest laugh!!

Last weekend we went camping and the boys got to sit next to Yogi Bear on the hayride. Weston was so excited! This year has been alot of fun camping with him now that he's a little older. We look forward to many more camping trips.

Weston absolutely loves birdies!!! We found a cartoon that is all about birds. He's in heaven when it's on and yells birdie the whole show. He's really trying to talk now. His favorite words to say are Birdie and Car (Cawwrrrr). We can't wait to hear more words :O)

Wes is definately going to be a tough little guy. Being the younger brother he's learning that he wont' take much. Him and his brother wrestle all the time and laugh every minute. At first Andon would tell on him and now they have a blast. Andon will be watching tv on his belly and Weston just jumps on him. Kevin and I usually join in and we have wreslting matches every night. The boys can't get enough.

Andons K4 picture. What a handsome little man!!! He's doing pretty good in school. He is not a fan of art what so ever. For homework he often has to draw pictures and some nights can be difficult. He loves computer lab!! Andon is so good with computers, ipods, iphones, etc. He's quite the little gadget boy. He even shows us a few tricks :O)

This past weekend we went to Yogi bear park to camp. Andon had a fun time with the bears. Boo Boo bear is his favorite. In fact that's his name when camping. All the kids are a bear and Weston is Ranger Smith. He got to tuck all of the bears in for hibernation. He thought it was so cool that Boo Boo Bear slept on the top  bunk. When we got back to the camper he wanted to sleep on the top bunk then.

Next weekend is his birthday. This year he wanted a angry birds birthday at Chuck E.Cheese. We are making him a angry bird cake that he can launch the birds and knock over cookies, marshmellows and cake. He found it on you tube and wanted it so bad. I'm going to have his cousin Alexa and him build it. That way they can make it how they want it and have fun doing it. Grandpa is making the sling shot.

The following weekend we are doing our last camping trip for the year. We are looking forward to it because they have alot of fun things to do such as trick or treat, haunted house and many more activities. The boys absolutely love camping!! We enjoy it as well.  Now that Wes is a little bigger we hope to camp alot more next year.

We will post birthday pictures. Sorry it's been a while. We've had so much going on every weekend.

And then we have Wes who is a member of the clean plate club. Thank god for dogs or our floor would constantly be full of food. Wes takes a bite for himself, then a bite for the dog, then a bite for him, a bite for the other dog. At least he shares. It's about the only thing he will share lately  ;o) Both boys are really possesive over their blankies. Grandpa had to put a W and  a A on the blankets. Now Andon makes sure whos is whos. Too funny.....

8/31/11 I made Andon a cake for his first day of school. I remember coming home and having special treats my mom made us. I will do the same for the boys. I wanted to celebrate his first day and have him tell us all about it. He ate all the frosting off his piece. Sometimes he eats the cake but usually just eats the frosting.

9/6/11 Weston had his follow up for his ear tubes. Everything went great and he passed his earing test!! Yay! He looks like such a big boy in this picture. He crawled up in the chair all by himself. He has an obsession with climbing on the kitchen table!! A really bad one!! So we have to keep our chairs on the counters otherwise he's on the table non stop doing donuts...hahaha.

9/6/11 Andon first homework assignment, self portrait. This was the second picture. We had a bit of a melt down about the first one. Andon is not liking doing homework at all. He dislikes art very much!! Anything to do with art is not his thing  ;o) He did a great job on this picture. He's wearing a dragon shirt and the dragon has 5 claws. He also has his slippers on ;o) He gets easy homework like, counting stuffed animals before bed, dressing himself, writing his name, reading with someone, giving compliments. He is really liking school so far. He said he loves computer lab!!! He's going to be our little computer nerd!!!  :O)

9/2011 Weston has become King of the Slushies! We can't shop without one or he will try to get out of the cart. He doesn't like to sit still shoppping. This works like a charm. His brother will shop til he drops ;o)

9/2011 Andon wanted me to take his picture. He said he looks like Krusty the Clown. Silly kid.

This picture was taken this morning (9/1/11). We told Andon he could watch tv or go on the computer after he got dressed and had breakfast. Weston always crawls up on the chair with him. This is one of my favorite pictures! Shortly after this Weston was stepping on Andons legs and pulling his shirt. Andon then tried pushing him down. What brotherly love. It was so precious while it lasted  :O)

Andons first day of school went great. I did get a note sent home that he wasn't following uniform rules. I sent him to school with light up shoes and apparently you can't wear those. Ooops. We went shoe shopping last night for new shoes! When the bus dropped him off two kids had to hug him on the way out. Then the older kid Hayden on the bus yelled out the window that he wanted a playdate with Andon. Too cute! Andon is already asking for a slumber party with him. Hayden goes to a different school though but they share the bus ride. He must of learned to play simon says because we played it in the car on the way to get new shoes ;o) Today he is so excited to take hot lunch (cheeseburger). At first he didn't want to because he thought he could only get chocolate milk with cold lunch.

Weston is enjoying the only child life while his big brother is in school. He plays without any distractions ;o) I made Andon a cake for his first day of school and we were pigging out after dinner. Andon ate only the frosting as usual and Weston ate the entire plate full as usual ;o). Weston saw Lighting McQueen on his fork and pointed and said cawwrr (car). He is recognizing and saying so much lately. He even pulls our shirts up and points and says bewey (belly). He's Mr. Independent that's for sure.

Both boys are doing great and growing into amazing kids, not that they aren't already. They both have such different personalities and we love them both to pieces!

I can't beleive he's almost 5!!! He keeps asking how many more days until his birthday. He can't wait to bring a birthday snack to his new school. Andon decided he wants a angry bird birthday at Chuck E. Cheese this year  ;o)

8/31/11, After making sure his brother got off to his first day of school okay Weston started laughing hysterically in the backseat. I think he's thinking......hmmmm...I get to play with all of this toys, sleep with two blankies and no one will stop me!!!

Waiting for the school bus (8/31/11)

Andons first day of K4 (8/31/11). As he walked to the bus he was a little nervous. Once he got on the bus he saw a older kid he knew from his previous school. He ran on all excited. At this point I was sooo teary. He drove off and I cried. Then we had to laugh because we realized I was still holding his lunch box. I guess I was a little nervous. Good thing we were meeting him at school to make sure everything went ok. He seemed pretty excited. I hope he's not to embarrassed I made him heart shaped pb and j sandwhiches. He loves the shapes! Today was tacos/burittos and he doesn't do Mexican  ;o).  We will follow up with how his first day went!!! I can't wait to hear myself!!!

Weston has been saying a few words. He says birdie and baby very clear. He tries to say fishy but it comes out a little different but sooo cute. Today we are going to try to start giving Weston only one nap. He forgot what night time is for the past few months. He's up 4-6 times a night so hopefully this will help it. We go Monday for his ear tubes so Im not looking forward to that but it's non-invasive and it should help him alot. Poor munchkin has had 6 ear infections.  Other than that he's been his usual happy self. Making everyone smile from ear to ear. He is such a climber!!!! He goes up the steps on the jungle gym and goes down the smaller slide face first. What a boy! He's into bobbin everyone on the head lately. It's hard not to laugh.

Going to go uniform shopping for Andong this afternoon. I can't believe what a big boy he is. I called the bus schedule today to see when he would be dropped of and picked up. I just want to cry everythimg I think about it. He's growing up so fast! I'm more worried about him....haha. He's so excited! Today he gets to dress up as a knight at school and all the girls are pricesses. They made a huge castle out of cardboard. He was so excited about that. He also thought he was so cool bringing his stuffed angry bird to school to sleep with. All the kids always run to him to see what he brings. K4 doesn't allow that so I hope he adjusts to that.

We can't belive how fast the boys are growing up. Its so fun yet it's so sad. I wish they could stay little forever. Well Wes could get out of diapers and then stop growing  ;o)

This is a classic (July 11 - Crivitz vacation)

Andons favorite part of the trip was when Cindy Bear delivered him milk and cookies. He was so excited! My favorite part was taking him to the dance at night. He was dancing to his favorite song Thriller and Yogi Bear showed up to dance with the kids. Andon did the Charlie Brown and I couldn't believe he knew it!  He then went on to do the Cupid Shuffle and that was quite hilarious. He was the opposite as everyone else. As we were on our way to tuck Yogi in bear and read him a book he said....mama, you know how I knew all those dance moves? I watched everyones feet. We had a fun time! We can't wait to go back during Halloween time!!  I wonder what the boys will want to be for Halloween. I'm sure Andon will help pick out a costume for his brother.

This past weekend we went to Yogi bear campground. This was Westons first time and he did great! He was quite the handsome flirt at the pool. He walked and talked to everyone!! We always say he talks Chinese because he rambles and sounds like it. It's the cutest thing.

Weston update

Weston is turning into a toddler way to fast. He learned how to climb last week. I was doing the dishes and I turned around and he was on the kitchen table within seconds. We can't take our eyes off him for a second. He's always trying to climb up by his brother and do whatver he's doing. It's too cute. They are really starting to play with eachother more now that Weston is so mobile. He's our little monkey. He loves to climb allover the jungle gym we just built. He even goes down the slide head first. Everynight we play outside he needs a bath because he's covered in dirt head to toe. ;o)

We are going to paint a sports theme in his room soon (either baseball of football or something). He's getting a big boys room now. All the animals prints are gone. He's still in a crib yet and luckily he hasn't figured out how to crawl out of that. Andon wants bunk beds soooo bad so we might get them one once Weston can go in a big boy bed.

Weston has been learning where all his body parts are. He lifts up his shirt and says beelllbeee. He points to his ear, eye and nose. Sometimes his nose is his ear though  ;o) He's trying so hard to talk. At times he sounds like he can say birdie and book. Two of his favorites!!! When he goes to grandmas they watch the bird feeder out the window and he points and says birdie. He loves to go downstairs and feed the fish with grandpa (both him and his brother love doing that). He's been making this growling sound like a bear and it's super cute. Weston is such a cheerful boy!! He lights up the room and can make you smile at any point. We have two amazing boys that make our families so happy.

Weston will be getting ear tubes in a few weeks. We decided it's time since he's had 6 ear infections so far. The poor munchkin is so miserable when he has them. He has the whole house up all night for days. We hope the tubes will resolve the problem for him. It's hard seeing them sick.

We are going camping at yogi bear park and it will be Westons first time. We are so exicted to go! It's funny because our neice, nephew and Andon named all the kids a few years ago. AJ is Yogi Bear, Alexa is Cindy Bear, Andon is Boo Boo bear. Then weston came along and they were out of bears so he's Ranger Smith. They all have stuffed animals of each.

Weston absolutely loves vegetables (green beans are his favorite). We have a hard time getting him to eat meat. His brother is the opposite and loves the meat and doesn't care for vegetables. Usually when Andon is done eating then Weston crawls up on his chair and finishes Andons plate. We tease him that his little brother is going to be his big brother soon.  Weston is starting to lose the baby fat look and really thin out. He still has his thighs ;o). He is extrememly muscular though. He's a little brickhouse!!

Andon update

Andon is one smart little guy. The other morning he came up to me and said, Mama, remember that mummy exhibit at the museum they showed on TV. Can we go? He was sad they closed. He then went on to say...Do you know how mummys are made? Scientists wrap skeletons in toliet paper. He is such a comedian.

He usually crawls out of bed 5-6 times a night and runs in the livingroom. When he sees were about to tell him to get back to bed he says he's just out to give hugs and kisses. Well how can we refuse those. Last night he came out and said......Mama, when dogs bark during storms that means they are trying to communicate right?  He has such a vocabulary!!! He is super excited about kindergarten. I'm pretty nervous about him taking the bus but he is so excited. They will drop him off and pick him up at our driveway. His first day we are going to let him ride the bus and meet him at school so he gets the swing of it (and I think to make sure I'm ok with it...hahaha).

The other day I was going to get a spray tan after work. Andon came downstairs when I was working and asked if he could go along. Before I could answer he says......if the guy asks how old I am just tell him I'm 18. Of course I let him go with me after that. How could I say no. He's such a boy yet he has a soft side to him. One day he was hanging out at his grandmas with his cousins. We had somewhere to go so we dropped Weston off on our way. When I walked in Andon just starred at me and was smiling. I walked over by him and he hugged me and touched my shirt saying...I really like your shirt and I love your lipstick.  All these little things make it so hard to see him grow up. He's an amazing little boy.

We went to the mall the other day and Andon wanted to adopt a butterfly so bad. So we did, we check on them everyday. I think one caterpillar is dead but Andon keeps saying he's sleeping. I sure hope he is. He named them after his cousins Alexa and Big AJ  ;o)  We will have to bring these little suckers camping at Yogi Bear this weekend because they will be ready to go in their cage now and turn in to a cacoon. At least this is alot easier than adopting a cat like he originally wanted  ;o)

Funny how this life jacket fits our 26 lb 1yr old and our 31 lb 4yr old. Too funny. Wes is catching up fast!!
