Partners in crime!

The boys were suppose to be playing with the legos I brought into my room for them during my shower... but I guess they wanted to "paint" with a concealer stick instead. Looks fun to me! Didn't Ashton do such a great job decorating Westons face? Ha ha ha!

I love the idea of having a wall full of fun pictures of our family in different sizes and frames. This is the beginning of that project. I say 'beginning' because I want to add so many more over time. It was tricky trying to put them up with 2 curious boys wanting to help, but it was worth the work!

Shout out to the east coast

LOOK WHAT WESTON GOT IN THE MAIL TODAY...!

He can't wait to play with it...

and neither can Ashton!!

New BYU gear!

I was tickling Weston trying to get hime to smile :)

Thank you grandma & grandpa Bell, Kimmie and Katie! The boys-yes both- love the new toy!

The card was super cute too!

We love weekends!

Our weekend (quickly) consisted of dentist visits, (Ashton loves his new toothbrush and riding in the dental chair) park time, and lots of picture taking. Enjoy!

Dress for success!!

As I was getting dressed this morning, Ashton asked me if I was getting ready for work. After much discussion I realized that he relates button up shirts with going to work since Tommy wears a suit or at least a button up to work everyday. I hardly ever wear "dress shirts" so he obviously thought today I was off to work. After I finished getting ready I asked him if he wanted to go to work too, and he gladly obliged. We went and picked him out a button up shirt to wear, and of course we had to get one for Weston too. All day today he has been pretending to go to work so I have entertained his imagination with playing along. We typed on the computer for a while, read a book and had our lunch break. All things that Daddy does at work (we did break for nap time-don't think Tommy gets one of those). It's been fun acting "work day" out with Ashton and can't wait 'til he's old enough to go to work with Tommy for a day :)

Gettin' our little dude Ashton a start at a good education?

*PRICELESS*

We are beginning the process of looking/touring pre-schools for Ashton. I wanted to start him in January hoping there would be a spring enrollment but that fails to be the case. All the schools start in September, so I think we will wait until next year. This will hopefully give us plenty of time to get on waiting lists, and go through the process of "getting into" a good pre-school (it's like getting into college-there are interviews, screenings, medical checks, paper work galore, visits, tours, call-backs etc.) He is ready to go though. He constantly asks if he can go to school with Alexa (my sister) and get a Go Diego Go backpack;)

Fun photos

I especially love being a SAHM on days like today. When the boys and I can take as much time as we want to have fun with our camera. We don't have to worry about schedules or calendars, it's just us and a good time. Today we got more of Ashton because Westie bear was too wiggly and wanted to explore upstairs. That was ok with us. We will get him another day. I am still figuring out my SLR and today I shot on manual. It was fun trying to figure everything out, and see what every setting would produce. Hope you enjoy:)
