Retirement

I think I'm going to retire this blog...it was a secondary blog in the first place...everything I do on this blog, I do on my regular blog. Hmmmm...yeah...I'm gonna do it! You can find all of my daily rants here @ Unexplained X2. Catch you on the flip side!

Partners in Crime

Negotiating for lawn mower rights...

Matt: I get to use the pink lawn mower if you get the pink hat.

Hailey: DEAL!


Matt: Ha! I love when things work out my way!


Hailey: You win some, you lose some...at least I got this cool hat.


Matt: These buttons? You don't want me to touch these buttons??? Can you just tell me one more time...I keep forgetting!


Matt: Are you sure you don't want me to touch these buttons? They're right at my level though...are you sure???


Hailey: What? I'm not doing anything...I'm just standing here. No, I didn't tell him to do anything...why would you think that? You don't believe this innocent little face?

The Modern Woman

The Modern Woman does not need her brother to sit in time out with her (but it's nice sometimes).

The Modern Woman can multi-task. Yes, I can walk the baby in the stroller while I mow the lawn. Can't you?

The Modern Woman knows what she wants and knows how to ask for it. The Modern Woman is not ashamed to show her happiness...she's proud of it!

The Modern Woman can give herself a yogurt facial during lunch...maximize your time, ladies!

The Modern Woman is always easy to reach. Her cell phone is just an arm's length away...call me!

Happy Valentine's Day from M & H

We feel that we've been neglecting this blog lately, but we've been really busy learning how to walk, run, and talk. We get along pretty well, but Matthew still likes to snatch anything that Hailey has and Hailey uses biting to defend herself. We're working on that...we may try couples counseling, but we'll let you know. Here are a couple of pictures from Valentine's Day. Mommy was sweating after trying to take our pictures (we still can't figure out why she thinks it's so hard), but we think she did a pretty good job.

Oh! Presents? For us? We're so lucky!!!

I love my Princess wand...unfortunately, so does Matthew. He keeps trying to take it away from me and I just can't figure out why he wants to be a princess!

My "wand" is pretty cool too b/c it actually lights up. I intend on spending countless hours studying how this works and then I will dismantle the entire thing and put it back together...it's the engineer in me!

We got cards! I mean, the cards are okay, but we're really into ripping apart the envelopes.

Yup...I'm Mom's Lil Romeo. Oh, and I love this monkey!

Mommy said this was the only decent picture she could get of us together. She's such a drama queen!

I'm sad and the only one who could understand was my monkey. You see, Matt took my Princess wand again and I just don't know how to get it back. You understand, don't you Monkey? I love you, Monkey. You wouldn't steal my wand.

I can't explain it either. Yes, I'm a boy, but I just can't get past this Princess wand. It's so cute and the noise that comes out of it is magical. I guess that made me think it was real b/c I spent 10 minutes banging it against my head wishing it would turn me into a frog!

I got it back! I hope he doesn't take it from me again. Yikes...hope he doesn't try to steal my sequined heart shirt too! I love this shirt!!!

I'm on the hunt...must find more wands!

Laughing...This Girl Loves to Laugh (sometimes)

I guess Nu.tella brings out the best in her!

Can You See Me? I'm Hiding...

Just Because It's January 6th - a typical morning and breakfast (with forks)

Good morning, sunshine!

What? I'm not doin nuttin...

I swear...if he doesn't give me one of those books, I'm going to slam my head against this dresser...I'll do it!

Why would I give her one of these books when I just got them?

Okay, then can I have one of these books? PLEASE!!! Throw me a bone!

Fine...I'm getting one of these...it's mine, buddy!

Yeah...she's not getting anything from me...won't happen. What's that? Share?
Sharing is for suckers!

Come on!!! Please give me one!!!
Yes, this is how we spent the first 10 minutes out of bed...fighting over these stupid books that no one cared about until this morning.

Mmmm...I got a fork. I got a bowl of bananas. I got my fork to pick up one of those bananas and now it's actually making its way to my mouth. Could life get any better?

This isn't as easy as you adults make it look. The food keeps falling off the fork!

Satisfaction...I finally got the banana into my mouth. I may conquer this after all!

She just took this because I smiled...I don't do that a lot, so she captures it when she can. I like to throw her a bone every now and then...it makes her keep trying.

Yes, I put these "bracelets" on my own wrists...aren't they pretty? Are you jealous? You could look like this too if an entire Fisher Price factory was in your living room. Lifestyles of the Rich and Infamous...what can I say?

Wow! My hands got big...and red...and furry! Wait...what's going on here!?! These things are totally cool!

Can you tell we need to investigate toy storage? That's happening after the Christmas tree makes its exit this weekend...we need organization! Any suggestions (under $250) are welcome.
