Baby got back

The boys got their first pair of Levi's today. I ran into Costo to pick up my glasses that were being repaired and made the mistake of looking around. We walked by the clothes section and the boys begged to look around. I asked if they wanted to look at the toys instead but they insisted! (I love how buying clothes for them does not come with the attached guilt like buying clothes for myself!)

After picking out the jeans and the world's largest package of AA batteries, I'm pretty sure we were set to make it out with our lowest Costco bill ever. That is until we were hit with the news it was time to renew our membership. I swear, a girl can never win!

Here are some photos of them modeling their new jeans.

You can run but you can not hide!
And just how cute are these patooties?!?

First busted lip :(

Last night Devin busted his lip on the tub. It was dramatic for like a whole minute and then...

He moved on to jumping on the bed. We barely got him to sit still long enough to take the first picture.

Boys!

Toddler beds

Well we officially had to make the switch. They were climbing out and not able to get back in which was heck on nap time yesterday so today we're trying out the toddler beds for the first time. I am currently watching them play in their room on the monitor so cross your fingers that they go to sleep soon!

Sleep Over

Ever since they figured out how to crib hop, I've been wondering when this was going to happen.

I left them that way so Darrell could see them when he gets home from class in a couple minutes. So cute!

Gig 'em Ags!

Can you believe it's almost been 2 years?

Happy 3 years to us!

Well year #3 did not bring around kid #3 but it did whiz by in the blink of an eye!?!

Today we have officially been married for three years, (happily for the majority of it - I'm counting that as a blessing ;)

Together we're embracing life, making concerted efforts to be good partners, parents, employees and (in Darrell's case) a student. Life is never dull around here and although Darrell might tell you otherwise - I think that must be the way that we like it.

Day one of the rest of our lives:

And finally today, 1,888 days later:
Happy Anniversary Darrell, marrying you was the best decision I ever made!
