Gotta Love Columbus Day!

Happy Columbus Day everyone! Haha, the only reason I'm celebrating it is because Parker gets the day off! Yay! It's been fun having him home today. He did all the night feedings and got up early with the twins, letting me sleep in!!! Then we packed up a picnic and went to the park. The boys and Parker played on the toys while I cuddled Tyce (it was in the 50's today! Brrr!) then we all went for a walk on this really pretty trail through the gorgeous trees. One thing I do NOT miss about Utah is the brown, I am loving the green out here. The leaves are changing color and it's just beautiful! Then we all came home and cranked up the Cocomotion and made some yummy hot chocolate! Parker has really taken over this weekend letting me rest and it was been wonderful and MUCH NEEDED. One thing I love about Parker is that he never makes me feel lazy. He understands that I have not been feeling well and have not been getting enough sleep and so he steps in and sacrifices his own time and sleep for me. Gosh, I'm a lucky girl aren't I? Thanks sweetie!!!! =)

He looks a little tired huh? This is only the second tub daddy has given Tyce! Needless to say, he loved it!

Fun at the Fire Station...

On Saturday Parker took the twins to an open house at the Firestation by our house. I was home sick with Tyce but it sounds like they had TONS of fun! They were in heaven because the whole fire truck, ambulance, and ladder truck were open for them to just roam around in and play! They had lots of fun "driving" the fire truck and I think they make adorable firemen!!!
Tyce has been LOVING his bumbo seat today, he looks like such a big boy in it! I know it sounds so cliche, but I really cannot believe how fast he is growing up! I love his smiles and he just ADORES his daddy. Anytime he hears Parker's voice he gets a big ol grin on his face. Looks like we have yet ANOTHER daddy's boy in the family!!! Our "HOW MANY DAYS UNTIL GRANDMA AND GRANDPA BARRACLOUGH COME" chain is getting shorter and shorter! In three days I'll be picking them up from the airport!!! YAY!!!

Cutie Pies...

I've had QUITE the day today and cannot remember the last time I've been this mad at the twins. In about three hours they have dumped every toy in the house on the floor, dumped six boxes of raisins on the floor, and got into my makeup bag-smearing mascara and liquid foundation ALL OVER my carpet, walls, doors, mirror, and chaise lounge. I am beyond mad and I don't know what to do SO I decided to do a post on how cute they are and how much I love them. Maybe it will help. Ok, maybe not. But, regardless, here are some pics...
Ok so I put a lot more pics of Tyce on there because HE has been an angel lately!!! Ah somebody please help me, I can't handle these crazy punks!!!

Fall Family Pictures...

Parker's wonderful cousin, Emmie, took our family pictures for us and we just got them back! It was hard to get three kids to be cooperative but we did our best by bribing them with chocolate whoppers for each smile. Enjoy!

Tyce is 2 Months!

My little Tyce is 2 months old! He had his 2 month check yesterday and all went well. He is growing, yay! He now weighs 10 pounds 8 ounces. His weight and head are in the 25% and his height is in the 75%, yay! He is doing great at holding his head up and loves to smile. He actually smiled at the doctor during his whole exam (until he got his three shots of course!). He has become a happier baby, he doesn't seem as fussy as he used to be. He is still not on much of a schedule though and is still up a lot at nights. The boys still adore him and just cannot get enough of him. They always want to help with baths, diaper changes, picking out clothes, wrapping him up, giving him his binky, and holding him. I'm not quite sure who he looks like but I did notice a dimple on at least one side, so he got that from mommy!

Here are some pics of my little man... I also keep forgetting to announce that PARKER PASSED THE BAR EXAM!!! I am not surprised but we are very relieved to know that it's all behind us now. GOOD JOB BABE!!!
