KIDS!

Ugh, my kids are wearing me out! Isaac has started getting up at 5:45 a.m. every morning. I'm so tired that I'll give him a bottle and stick him in front of the T.V. with a movie going and go back to bed. Then he'll usually come find me once his bottle is empty and he has a messy diaper for me to change. He hates to get his diaper changed, though, so I've started to wonder if he comes in with a messy diaper to wake me up or just make life more miserable. (: Anyways, even that hasn't been working to get me out of bed lately because I have a cold and I can't smell a thing, so today he tried a different approach. While I was peacefully sleeping in bed, Isaac whacks me in the face with my own alarm clock. It left a mark and I've had a head ache all morning. Needless to say, even that didn't get me out of bed. It just made me more cranky. Maybe this new way to use your alarm clock will work for you, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Here's some cute kid pictures. Yah, I still love them despite all they put me through. What would I do with my time if I didn't have two toddlers to chase around.

The first two pictures are of Isaac's haircut. His hair was getting quite long and I didn't want anyone thinking he's a girl, so I started snipping with the scissors. He wouldn't hold still enough to make it even, so I finally got John's buzzer out and used a longer attachment so he wouldn't be bald when I was finished. This is what he looks like now. If you haven't seen him for a while, it probably doesn't look any different.


This picture is of Isaac and Zora in their matching bear pajamas. It is impossible to get a decent picture these days because my kids can't hold still until Elmo is on.

One night, I had been up a lot with a sick Isaac so I took a long morning nap. Zora was sweet and entertained herself. When I woke up I heard her jabbering to herself so I went to see what she was up to. She shows me what she was working on. "Look Mommy, I made a castle." I think she got the idea from a nickelodeon show called Max and Ruby, but I still thought she was very creative.
This last one is just showing off how cute my two year old is.

Cute pigtails! And, yes I have that same sleeping battle with Maddie, she has not tried hitting me in the head with my alarm clock yet, so I guess I better watch out.

Zora is so adorable and I loved the hair do. Isaac looks very handsome with his new hair cut. Do you have a before picture? Chris and I have been talking about investing in a buzzer just for Hayden's haircuts and I do have to agree that it is a lot harder to give him a haircut now than when he was 4 months old.

I think the hardest Mom-ing is when your first ones are toddler age. Enjoy it! It is sad when they start to not come in and get you in the morning and just go off to do something on their own.
