Our boys do require a lot of energy, like most boys. There is very little down time, and I mean VERY LITTLE!! Our boys have opened up many new doors for our family. I have been exposed to more disgusting behavior in three years than I ever imagined possible, and I know there is much more to come. I have watched them eat spiders, crunch grasshoppers with their bare feet, feed one another dirt, wipe their noses on my shirt, and many other things, but I want to eat later so I will try and forget those also! Matt and I have endured more screaming, more crying, more runny noses, more throwing up in beds, more diaper changes than we ever thought imaginable, but the crazy thing about being a parent is the fact that you wouldn't trade all of that in for anything else in the world! Temper tantrums can be tolerated because their is always a hug to follow! Those little arms wrapped around me are my favorite part of the day, not to mention the sloppy kisses...at times it's like kissing a slobbering dog! I also love when they sneeze directly into my face, good times! I am happy to have the opportunity to raise two little boys and to hopefully help them grow into caring, well adjusted young men. That may be a pipe dream considering they have to live with their dad! Honestly, he is enjoying them so much, they play with Lego's and race cars together, and do their best to annoy mommy! Happy Birthday to our little men! I can hardly wait to see what the next three years will bring, and of course all the years beyond! Love, mommy!

Today We Are Three!!
It's hard to believe, I know, but our littlest people have turned three...already! I honestly have a lot of trouble remembering their first year of life due to the chaos that ensued when we brought them home. When I tried remembering what is was like when they were babies, I realized my brain pretty much blocked out that entire time. I can look at pictures of them as little ones, and that is how I recall some of our days spent together while they were babies. It does make me sad, but I have since started to make it mandatory for my brain to make a mental memory of things happening around us, and to try and live in the moment more than I did before!
