Hobbies, fun things, warheads, diarrhea, & tampons! What fun!

Okay, so that bright light to the right is Jupiter when it was closer than it's ever appeared from earth in our lifetime... neat, huh?

Damen and Zane, last summer

Ry jumping out of the swing

The little boys playing on Nickjr.com

Damen, one of my little monkeys, on the monkey bar (Only three year old I know that can go all the way across, esp that high in the air), by himself. Go, Damen, Go!

Yeah, that's dirt spit on Tristin's face... he's one of my little drama kings. Dunno who they get that from....hmm.....

Damen and Zane, playing in the ditch filled with leaves at the park a few months back. It was fun!

Cheese!

Damen driving the car Santa brought them (it's Dukes of Hazzard)

My lovey dove cooking for me 'cause I felt like being lazy. He does that sometimes. :) I just might keep him.....even if he does look grumpy.

Yeah, those are tampons. Zane's favorite toy... Dang kid! Doesn't he know they're $8 a box now?? I mean, really! He does this EVERY month....I have nowhere up high I can put them where they're easily accessible to me but he can't get them. Damen calls them "Mommy's shots" (and no, he doesn't know what they are for; at least I hope not!)

This is 1/4 of a huge missle that's underground. Those astronaut type people are working on it. Cool, huh?

Sean and Zane bowling

My very naughty dinosaur

Damen making a scrapbook

Tristin's obsession: Bakugan. This is a three headed dragon.

Ryan loves bionicles and created this creature. He has 8 arms and I forget how many wings and other things. They're pretty talented/creative boys!

Tristin and Damen in the snow

Ryan making his first scrapbook (We did this together over spring break last week)

These are exactly what they look like- warheads. They've been "discarded" in that nice, neat little pile. Makes you feel really safe and warm and cozy inside, doesn't it? Well....how else did you think they disposed of them?

Ry and Damen were begging to dig the hole for our new tree. We all love digging (okay, everyone except Tristin). We're weird like that.

Zane dumped q-tips all over the floor and thought he'd stare at them awhile......sit back and admire his work.......ahh what a guy.

Scrapbookin' it

Tristin's new .22 he got for his bday

My little hockey player (Sean)

This is Tristin and Zane yesterday. Zane was sitting on my bathroom floor with my makeup case open and makeup all around him. He had mascara all over his face, just caked on. Hey, at least he knows where it goes.....although I'm not sure that's a good thing...

Zane at the rec center

Damen got in trouble with the lifeguard. He's a little daredevil. He was walking up the slide and then he came down the middle instead of on the slide.

Damen and Zane in the water

Some of my pretty daffodils

Oh, and in case you're wondering about the "diarrhea" part..... since yesterday was such a fun filled day anyway (NOT), Zane decides, in the heat of my being totally beyond stressed, to take his diaper off while I was on an important call and crap all over Damen's room. He was perched up on his tallest dresser, sitting in a puddle of pea. He had relieved himself (and by that I mean crapped) all over the room.....on the Thomas pictures Damen and I had colored, on books, toys, etc....and was covered in it from head to toe (even in his hair). Ewwwwww!!! I hate that about boys. Tristin used to be the same way when he was little. It's so gross. I'm ready to fast forward through this stage. Zane's already gone through it for more than a year already and seems to get naughtier everyday!! He'll be two this month..... it has to end sometime, right?????
