Mid State Fair with Grammie

For all the summers we've been coming up to Cayucos, we had still never been to the Mid State Fair in Paso Robles and it had been on our to-do list for awhile.  This past visit we finally were able to cross it off the list.  Grammie and I took all the boys and we had a blast!  Snow cones, cotton candy, tons of farm animals, playing in a pool in giant plastic bubbles, and the boys went to their very first concert: the Fresh Beat Band!!!  Needless to say, Grammie and I definitely needed a few glasses of wine when we finally got everyone home and into bed, but it was a very fun-filled day :)

FOUR!

Charley is 4!  For his birthday, he spent an awesome day at Disneyland with Miles, Mom, Dad, and Jessica.  Favorite ride: the Buzz Lightyear Astro Blaster one.  Worst scariest ride: the 3D Bugs Life show :) 

Gearing up for the Olympics!

 Pete and mini-Pete :)

Charley is Peter's #1 fan and got the VIP treatment when we went to a game of Pete's a few weeks ago.  The team manager even got Charley a cap with Peter's number on it which he now wears everywhere...to school, while he naps, at the park...I practically have to pry it off his head.  Him and Miles play "water polo" all the time now, in the living room, with no water, where Charley makes up his own rules of the game and changes them constantly.  Oh, and there's lots of tackling. 

Happy Father's Day!

You're super rad Dad.  We looooooooooooove you!

-Charley, Miles, and Tucker

Oh Miles, you shouldn't have

Check out my Mother's Day muffins from Miles:

Guess someone got a little hungry on the way home from preschool...

What the heck, it's April already?!?!

Oh, blog. You're so hard to keep updated. Currently, Charley and Miles are awake and laughing in their bedroom way past bedtime, and Charley is sneaking Miles books in his crib. On one hand, I do really wish they were asleep, but on the other hand, I love listening to them whisper to each other and their laughs make me smile :) Also, Miles' attempt at whispering is pretty comical too.

I'm going to try and get some sleep so I can wake up with maybe half of the energy the boys have bursting out of them at 6 a.m.

Me and sweet Tucker in Cayucos :)

Paging Dr. Nelson

Finding a heartbeat is serious business

 What's this kid shoving in my ear???  

 I'm too young for high blood pressure

 It will just feel like a little pinch Tucker.

 Okay Charley, game over, I'm drawing the line at you using power tools on your baby brother.

Awesome hair day

Miles woke up like this.

Happy New Year!

Starting off the New Year right with a brother dog pile.

I didn't want this!!

We're a little late on this, but not only did the boys' video get picked to be in the Jimmy Kimmel clip, they were the first ones up. So basically, I'm a stage mom now. Just kidding, the boys couldn't have cared less. I told them they were on tv and Charley was like "No, mom, we were just on our couch." But they did have a lot of fun with this new fake silly gift thing. Two of their favorite jokes were getting vegetarian Aunt Nennie a bacon scented car air freshener and putting chocolate sprinkles in a gift box for Pops and telling him it was caterpillar poop. Hilarious.


Oh and a disclaimer... if Char and Mi ever talk like the boy at the end I will for sure be washing their mouths out with soap!! :)
