Boys will be boys!

Obnoxious is about the only word that I can find to describe my boys at times. Here are some pictures of the outcome of their doings. Cody thought that it was warm enough to go swimming (50 degress BRRRR!) and wanted to get in the water. Little did he know that below the water was a big hole. Then one day daddy was watching the boys and this is what I came home to, of course right before lunchtime. Ethan and Cody had managed to get into the garage and each get an ice cream cone and a soda. That is a nourishing lunch right? All I can say is that they keep me laughing and always on my toes.

Ethan turns 4!

Well it finally came. The big birthday that I have been "threatening to take away for about 2 months now. Let me tell you it works and little do they know that I really can't take that day away. It was a very fun day for all the boys. Ethan wanted a TMNT birthday (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for all of you without little boys) and that is what he got. Ethan, Cody and their cousins each got a ninja turtle shirt, head band, and mask. It was great fun and also dangerous at the same time. It gave 5 little boys a reason to run around doing their Ninja Turtles moves on each other (do they really need a reason).

The BOYS!

3 Boys is so much fun and WORK!

Well here I am becoming a blogger. Just wanted to have something to keep everyone updated on our life and family of 5. I am definitely having to adjust to having 3 boys in the house. It is funny how when one needs attention another is soon to follow. It is a lot of fun though and wouldn't trade it for anything. Little updates on each child:
Ethan-he is 4 years old today. WOW! It has flown by. The kid has a vocabulary like no other and lets you know when you shouldn't be saying something. He is a little smarty. Where does he get it I don't know. He is really into TMNT right now and in fact is having a TMNT birthday party. Yea Turtles!!! He is growing up to fast and can't wait until he can go to school. (I am counting down the days too :)
Cody- is 2 years old and can be a little stinker. He is one of those that responds a lot better to reverse pychology then he does to me just asking him to do something. He reallly keeps me on my toes. He is starting to realize that he can actually be friends with Ethan. It is kind of nice. Not so much fighting anymore. He is a little mimmick though. If Ethan is saying or doing something you can guarantee that Cody will be doing/saying it within a couple of seconds. We are potty training him right now and it is going well. He has really taken to it well. We traumatically lost the binky on Sunday. He lost it down the toilet and was devistated. Needless to say I was pretty happy.
Cooper- is 7 weeks old. He is growing and changing everyday. He is overall a pretty good baby. He was born Feb. 18 and weighed 7 lbs. 13 oz. He is gaining weight at a rapid rate. At 6 weeks he weighed 10 lbs already. He is filling out. He sleeps pretty good through the night only waking up once maybe twice. It seems like the others wake me up more than him. He started smiling at us this last week. It is so much fun.
