home sweet home

we're back! deep sigh of content. rain clouds and thunder opened up for us a warm wet welcome. i'm ready to hunker down for the weekend and enjoy just the four of us again. it was a crazy but fun week. dave did much learning at his conference. and two sleeping boys greeted him in the back seat on our long drive home from a week apart. i have plenty of pictures but for now i'll just leave you with a few and a couple funny videos...i'll be up and running again next week after a weekend of recovery!!


the college graduate!! we had so much fun celebrating! and let me tell ya...there was a lot of celebrating! i have so much to share...but i'll have to wait. let me just say that once again the pioneer woman was a hit with a delicious sangria recipe, a red velvet cake, and a chocolate sheet cake! we were all in  food heaven. i have a ton of pictures and videos from her big day and i'm hoping to put them together in a video.

next up...this cutie. happy as a clam at the seashore the entire trip :) wild hair and all! boy do i love those dimples, almost as much as the spiky hair!

lately caleb has been saying the darnest things. i think he's at that age...the age where the stuff out of their mouth is just hilarious! at least to us it is....so anyway here are a couple videos of this little toddler of ours. in the first he's singing the abc song. and in the second he's sneaking frosting off his carrot muffin (brunch at panera after jen's graduation) of course miss graduate herself is the one who caught caleb sneaking frosting off his muffin (we have a video of jenny sneaking butter from the butter bowl when she was about the same age)
i'll end on one final note for this weekend....there is yet another thing caleb takes after his auntie in (although if she happens to read this she might get embarrassed  that i blabbed about it) there was a pea incident at nani's house this week....i can spare the you the gory details but basically not only does caleb like sneaking frosting...he likes sneaking-and sticking- peas up his nose-apparently. oh man. leave it to a two year old to not only say the darnest things. but to do the darnest things!!! pea up the nose ended well...we were at urgent care hanging out for a couple hours and well past bedtime but caleb was happy as can be till the dr. stuck his pliers up his nose! let's just say....i think the pliers alone were enough to traumatize him into not sticking anything else up in places where they don't belong!!! oh caleb...you surprise us everyday! and in case you were wondering how he is like auntie jen yet again?...she had a fondness for rocks....up her nose... (although they never got quite as far as caleb's pea)...she liked picking and places them from her jelly shoes to her nose...sorry to end on such a randomly gross note...at least i am not posting any green nose pictures (which i actually don't have...but if i did....)

okay so lastly, here a few more random
pictures...
this is what we'll probably be doing a lot of this weekend...

 catching up on some zzzzzs

 he still makes my heart skip a beat ;)

 both boys snoozing meant mom and dad got some quiet alone time together after a week apart! on our drive home....



one more thing! we finally (or actually my mom) finally solved the crying to sleep problem...no more tears=leave the door open (as long as caleb doesn't get out of bed) a quiet go down all week at my parents and it worked like a charm tonight at home! hurray finally! we just close the door once he goes to sleep so he can't find his way down the stairs (at my parent's house) or anywhere else for that matter....i also like the fact that i can sneak in a kiss and see his sweet sleeping self before going to bed for the night ;)


interesting...someone was having a lil photo shoot!! i didn't take these pictures :)


 happy friday all! sooo exicted for a long weekend with my boys ;) hope you all enjoy your weekend!
