We are once again a sick house! Ugh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Both of the boys woke up twice last night (so total of 4 times between the 2). Noah has just been congested and not eating well. Cameron is back to running a fever, not eating at all and just laying around. I hate seeing my babies like this! When will winter end and this place get better? I even went to the doctor this morning because my ear was hurting to badly yesterday. Luckily no inner ear infection but do have one like swimmers ear. Still hurts and making me tired. Whine, whine, whine. I want some cheese to go with that now thank you. Okay, just had to be frustrated for a minute. I will say this has by far been the worst winter for sickness I have ever experienced in my 37 years on this earth!

Before and After

I've been playing around with my photos again. I have been spending some time cleaning up some files on my computer and installing actions for PSE that I have had sitting there waiting to be played with. So after installing all the actions I of course had to play around. And this is what iI came up with the first go round. I can't believe the difference it makes! I seriously want to just sit and edit photos all day. There are so many possibilities and I want to get busy editing and printing some things to get some pictures hung on the walls (finally!).

So this was the before:

And this was the after:


I was loving the picture of him and after editing it I am really loving it now. It just pops more and doesn't look so flat. Just that sweet little look on his face I couldn't resist.

Pouty Face

I have been reading I ♥ Faces almost since it started and have always thought there were some fantastic entries. I had come across today they were doing pouty faces and I couldn't resist the urge to join in this week. And Noah has truly been working on that pouting thing...he is getting it down to a science already at the tender age of 2!




So head over and check out all the great entries each week. This week they have pouty faces for kids and Anything goes for pets. Now who doesn't love looking at pictures of kids and pets????

Quiet day. It rained last night and part of today. We even got some snow flurries...it's March! Not used to that but I guess I should get used to it because it is pretty common from what people tell me. Just got spoiled to some warmer weather so shocked my system to have highs in the low 40's today.

Tonight...organizing some of their toys and trying to find a better way to store some of the stuff so they don't pull out every single toy every day. Any ideas?
My little guy at the ER a few weeks ago. I felt so bad for them both but so very thankful they are feeling better now.

What's up mussycat?

Woa, woa, woa. What's up mussycat? Woa, woa, woa. Cameron has moved on from "I'm so happy" to "what's up mussycat" (can't say the "p" yet). And Noah has now joined in with "woa, woa, woa." Just too funny for words. I will admit I am thrilled my little guys are now singing. They LOVE to sing. Almost as much as they love to read books these days. We have a few books that are full of songs and they will dig one out and bring it to you and say "sing." I guess for most parents this would just be a cute thing they do. But for this mom with a long history of singing it makes me so happy! Praying at least one of them loves to sing throughout their lives.


So do you call this a drive in? I thought it was too funny not to take a picture of a while back. And why don't they have drive ins any more? I would have loved to have gone to at least one in my life time.

Must stop eating Jelly Bellies and go to bed early. Been wiped out every day this week. Think I am fighting of something myself now that the boys are better. That or I am playing catch up on sleep from them being sick. Or both. Who knows!

I'm so happy...

Cameron has been going around singing "I'm so happy." I think it started earlier in the month when Mike taught them to say Happy Birthday to me. Then they have a few different songs that come on Noggin and I think he just created this little song of his own. It has to be one of the cutest things ever. I know, I say that a lot but I do think they are adorable and this can just melt your heart. Determined to get it on video soon.

Man, they doctor made the right call changing Noah's medicine yesterday. They slept through the night and were the happy boys I know this morning. They were all smiles when I went in and Noah had his usual crazy hair that lets me know he slept well that night. I mean it was wild. If I hadn't been in such a hurry to get to a garage sale I would have run down and grabbed the camera. :)

We got to play outside this afternoon and hopefully will tomorrow as well. They just love being outside. I think they would live out there if I let them. Crazy little men that they are.

What a movie!

What a terrible, awful movie. For any of you West Side Story fans. He, he. I was thinking as I was getting ready to post this what a terrible day it was and that song popped into my head. Ahh...those were the days. The days of singing on stage. I miss them actually. Hope I can do it again some day...sooner rather than later.

But I digress. It was a pretty crummy week. Both of the boys continued to run fever off and on all week. Took them back in today and Cameron's ear infection has improved but Noah's has not and may actually have gotten worse. So we switched his medicine. The good news about switching his medicine is I now only have to give it to him once a day! That kid HATES to take medicine. But I will say he is being a trooper and has taken it SO much better this last week or so. We have our moments but for the most part it is a vast improvement over a few weeks ago when we started the first round of antibiotics. I just want my babies to be well again!

Long week, I have gotten virtually nothing done. Have so much to catch up on and seriously all I want to do is take a whole day and do nothing. Sit with my babies and just do nothing but enjoy them. Which I very well may do tomorrow. Hopefully both of them are feeling better and we can just enjoy some sunshine and play, play, play. Keep your fingers crossed for us!
