Smoking already....

If you look closely at the picture you will notice that Lucas and Nora got into a baggy of pantyliners and tampons. They pretty much took apart the tampons and Lucas stuck one in his
mouth. How do they know about getting into things they shouldn't and putting things that look like cigarettes in their mouths.

Woody...the Christ?

So Lucas likes to play "Jesus dying on the cross". Yes, my child came up with that one on his own. So Woody the Cowboy is our Jesus here on the cross. No, we do not have a stuff Jesus that he can use.
Not quite sure how to elaborate on this since it's a little strange.

He is Risen....

Our good looking children on Easter morning.

Our friends came over on saturday morning for an egg hunt and brunch. What fun! I'm not posititve that Nora really "got it" yet.

We did it....

Well, it only took 2 days for us to get our new faucet in. Although, we can never use our dishwasher again. We don't use it anyway! Yesterday, not only did we (well, actually Ted) got the new faucet in, we seeded some area of our yard for grass. Ted and Lucas went to the zoo. Nora and I went to the doctor, for her not me. Then...Lucas got the bug. Nora started vomiting on Wednesday night, in the car and now Lucas got it. I was just spouting off about how great my children's immune systems are and then their first case of the stomach flu crept in. Ted and I are waiting for it to hit us. Lucas started vomitng last night while Nora had it coming out the other end. BUT we got the faucet in and that's really all that matters right?

The picture above is from today. They are in Nora's bed fast asleep. Lucas never takes a nap so I'm sure we will be up LATE tonight.

Plumbing the sink

Ted and I have many projects in our house to tackle. Tonight, we are attempting to change out the water faucet in the kitchen. The directions say it will take 60 minutes. I don't believe it. A couple of years ago we built a swing set that was "build and play in one day" as it was described. It took us oh I'd said at least a month. So hopefully by the time you come and visit again we will have a new kitchen faucet. I'm not promising though.

Licking the spoon...

Remember when you made cake, cookies, or brownies with your mom and you got to lick the spoon. Well, my mom has taught my kids the "treat of the spoon". We made brownies today for Lucas to take to Cubbie tomorrow night and of course, they both wanted to lick the whisk. They would share and then fight over the whisk, but the best part was when Nora accidently got some on her shirt and Lucas said "I'm going to lick your shirt Nora!"
The other pictures are just cute ones of the kiddos.

Take a second look....

Nora is wearing her cute swimsuit but also Lucas' underwear. Lucas declared a naked day and took off all his clothes. So Nora grabbed his underwear and put it on.
