Sing a song, sing out loud, sing out proud!

Here are two WAY too cute videos of John singing the newest songs of choice. Happy Birthday and 5 little monkeys.ETA- John I am so so sorry that your butt in naked!

Bumbo

This is Colin, this is Colin's Bumbo. While he is not quite perfect at holding up his head. He is ready for the chair in small doses. We are in a *bit* of a time crunch due to Col's *ahem* thighs. We have to be sure that we can get him out once he's in. Don't tell him though we don't want him to have a complex. (He had just throwed up as J would say, which is why he's wet!)

A Wednesday at the Zoo!

The weather here in Colorado has been FABULOUS! Yesterday was a perfect 65*, today has been just as warm but windy. I think the weather is about to change, and that's okay because truly it's February. But for now I'll let Seth take John to the park at the end of the street.
We spent the day with our good friend's Kit, Braxton and Cooper. The BIG boys did a great job sharing snacks and walking most of the zoo!
The pictures are of John and Brax doing the "how far can you jump", J's still not the best jumper!

I'm going to have to PW

PW is post whore, which means write a bunch at once so I can hit my 10 for February. I'm going to blame it on the 28 month, but truly I dropped the ball early.
On a side not, the Rocky Mountain News one of Denver's newspapers, will end it's 150 year stretch tomorrow. Another casualty of this economy. Too bad.

day 2 of cleaning lady gate

still no lisa. I don't think she's ever coming back. or is even going to call or email. how weird.
Today we took both the kids to the doctor's so that we could make sure John's ear drum had healed enough for him to return to swimming. It has, and tonight he was back in the pool. Turns out 2 of his friends are in his class. (we also had him check colin's blood oxygen levels and they were great, I had myself in quite the tizzy!)
Both of the boys and I went to the library for story time today. After 10 minutes John was done and we picked out 3 new books, put a hold on a love and logic book and got me a novel. I seriously love to read but haven't been making it a priority lately. Thanks to my 101 that is going to change! After the library the boys and I walked the 3 blocks to the donut shop. the weather here is fabulous, a perfect 68* and the pink sprinkle donut was just what we needed. Those are the moments that I remember as a child, those perfect spur of the moment, these do something out of the ordinary trips. I hope my kids remember days like today.
I also did a bunch of laundry due to pink taking a dip in the potty and a huge blow out diaper (those don't happen very often here!)

5 more days in February!

One of my 101 things is that I post 10 times a month. With only 5 more days in February I will be posting a lot.
Last night Seth, Colin and I went out to dinner with 2 couples of friends. John spent the night at Mimi's!! Vesta restaurant was wonderful!! Highly recommended.
This morning we were up early so that our cleaning lady could work her magic, only she never showed. For those of you close to us you know how important this woman is to me. And how we've guessed there were problems. Damn!! Square one.
Today we spent the entire day at Mimi's because I had a weird work schedule. It was really nice to be there and reconnect with my mom. Plus we went on a great walk.
Seth is at the Nuggets game tonight while I am trying to wrangle the boys into bed, with enough time to clean up a bit.

A Picture Update

As my best friend Anne pointed out, I haven't been doing very good with pictures lately. As she said "I didn't even know Colin was smiling!", not just smiling giggling.



John got a new big boy bike from the neighbors. We are so thankful to them!!



The boys, Mimi and I all went to Kangroo Kingdom on Wednesday. It was the perfect thing for John, who is using my furniture like a jungle gym. The bubbles were a huge hit too.



John played Wii at the neighbor's the other night. He was really interested in the "bracelet."


The weather yesterday was wonderful and we all got out for a walk and a trip to the park. Colin likes to nurse in the sun and John GETS parks now. He is a crazy man, going down slides head first. His mother has upped her heart medicines;)
