Oven mitts

The boys got a hold of my oven mitts and decided to put them on their hands and run around with them. I tried getting a picture with both of the boys having them on their arms, but Brady wasn't cooperating and the camera was just too slow. :) Here is a picture anyways.

Saturday night

Aunt Lisa, Uncle Tom, Cousins Mitchell and Krista came over Saturday night to watch the boys while Mom and Dad went bowling. Lisa and Krista were already coming into town because Krista had a girl scout outing and then Sunday was going to be my grandma's memorial mass and then bowling afterwards, so we made the plans that they would come over to our place and watch the boys. While Shawn and I were still home, the boys were already having a great time with Krista and Mitchell. In the picture below, the boys were having a great time laughing at Krista. She would jump on the bed and then fall off. The boys thought that was hilarious.
Lisa took this picture of Mitchell and Brady. I guess Brady was using Mitchell's feet as his chair. She said it looked much cuter in person than it shows on here.
Sunday morning we all got up to a huge snow storm. Shawn, myself and the boys decided that we weren't going to venture outside for grandma's mass. We were pretty bummed, but figured it was better to not venture out. Lisa, Tom and the kids did end up going to mass and bowling afterwards and got home shortly after 3 pm.

Bath time update

Tonight I gave the boys their bath and was expecting Brady to do his normal thing. I put Isaac in like I normally do and let him play for a little while in the bath, while Brady played outside the tub. Then I put Brady in the tub and he started doing his wanting to get out right away. I told him it was OK and that he should sit down. He started to kneel down, but then got up again when his knee touched the water. I told him it was OK again, and showed him his toys. Then he started to take interest in the toys, so again I told him to sit down. He finally did get down on his knees in the tub and really started to play with his toys. He ended up playing in there for at least 15-20 minutes and didn't even get too upset when I washed his hair. I'm hoping this is the turn of the corner I was praying for. We shall see how his next bath time goes.

Fashion show

We were playing upstairs when the boys decided to take out daddy's hats. They took them all out and modeled them for me. Here are some pictures. Aren't they so cute??



At one point, Isaac had 3 or 4 different hats on at the same time. I tried to snap the picture here, but he took one of them off before I got the chance.

Where did it go??

Isaac learned that when I'm going to take his picture, a bright orange light comes on. Right before I took this picture he was pointing at it. Then when I would take the picture he would put his arms up as if to say "where did it go?". When I took this picture, I put the light on and then turned it off and asked him "Where did it go?". He then made the gesture and I quickly took his picture.

Where's Brady??

Brady really enjoyed putting this hamper on his head. At one point, he got down so low that you almost couldn't even see him under it. Isaac, of course, also had to get in on the action as well.

Teamwork

Tonight I made a little structure out of the boys' blocks and they played with this thing for a long time. There was a hole in the middle area, so they would put things in it until it was full, then they would take them all out again, and repeat the process for probably about half hour to an hour.
Later on, we went upstairs to the kitchen area and they played with this laundry basket for a long time as well. They would fill it up with various things around the house, mostly bowls from the kitchen. Then they would both push and pull the basket to a new location where they would proceed to take a couple items out of it at a time and unload them to a new location. Once everything was out of the basket, they would fill it back up and start all over again. They are so funny.
