Friday

Form Over Function

Jars
Jars 2

A battle within my house is always form over function.

I love these jars and Commander thinks that they are a royal pain in the booty. I store a lot of things through out the house in jars or various baskets. Detergent, many items in the pantry, hats and gloves, and other cleaning supplies. I think it looks so pretty and I enjoying the visual.

Commander please don't read this.... because it may fuel your fire. I must admit that sometimes getting the item out of the jar is a pain, but I would not change it just for that.

Strider Bike

Strider Bike's are simply the neatest thing for a toddler. It's more money than I thought I would ever spend on a toddler bike, but worth it at this point. He had for two days and was fully up and cruising around the cul-de-sac. I figured since he is the third- he gets so many hand me downs that he deserves something new and special just for him.

He gets right back up without a tear and keeps cruising around. He is fast on this bike. Now my problem is that he is fast enough to get away from me and I have to sprint to stop him, if he gets too far. Which his selective hearing gets in the way with listening to STOP.

Sunday

Shoot outs and Forts

Shag Fort
Bear Fort
Moose Fort

A lazy Sunday. PJ's till late afternoon. Toys all over the house. Building forts and having shoot outs. Could life be any better for little boys. For me, this is out of my norm. I like to leave the house everyday and go somewhere. Up and get going and gets lots done. This Sunday was nothing but fun with the BOYS........... at home.

Tuesday

Water Main

Photobucket
Every year in April the city comes out and drains the water main. It is COLD water, but still 3 boys could careless, it's water and fun. Even the neighbor boy who is 11yo came out to get into the fun. My boys are all half clothed. Classy I know. The baby in the diaper in the street is a highlight of my motherhood.

Sunday

Our Day

It was a good day.
Commander took care of us all. His mother, my Mother and me.
No complaints here.

I saw shirts like these on etsy and decided I wanted my boys to have them. They were not hard to make, and I used up some straps. Dorky I know, but I am the only estrogen in the house. Sometimes cuteness gets put on my boys without any consultation.

Thursday

Date Night

Date Night

We use to have date night all the time. A couple of years ago we hired college girls to come twice a month for date night. I miss those girls we had. I felt so connected to Commander at that time. It was not cheap to have a consistent gal come but worth it. I hope that we are able to get back there. Sometimes we ran errands and others just dinner. But it was so nice to be alone with him.

Me

Me

My youngest took this picture. (not bad for a 2 year old holding a camera)

I have been trying to do a lot of soul searching lately. What to I want to do in the upcoming years. I like my job as an RN, but my hobby is my passion. I could sit for hours looking at pictures and studying how someone got that image. So, I do think I want to forge idea with my hobby, but how and where do I begin. This dream is not as easy as it was to become an RN. I knew I had to go to school to get my degree, than find my job. Easy peasy. But photography is proving to be so different.
