Some Friday Fun

This art piece is hanging on a wall in my home. My photo of it doesn't do it justice. It is by far my favorite photo/art piece in my house. It's a Warhol-style piece created by a great company I recently had the opportunity to review - AllPopArt. My review complete with a giveaway is going on at Simply Stacie now - check it out!

There's also a really neat Beezer Playhouse giveaway going on too. It's a really cool playhouse that Matthew LOVES! Noah loves it too - you know, when Matthew let's him play along.

While you're there, check out the other great reviews and giveaways on the site. Stacie has the best of the best reviewers on her site - including me! ;-)

A Springy Weekend

We had nice weather this weekend - which started on Friday when Matt and I decided to take the day off. Friday was "bare feet in the house" warm.
And since it has been so warm/hot recently, we went ahead and gave the boys buzz cuts.
Saturday we played - in the kitchen as usual.
We did venture downstairs at times. That's where Matthew discovered this empty bin. It was the hit if the weekend.
Noah of course had to try it out for himself too.
He wasn't as graceful as Matthew was trying to get into it.
And he was SO proud of himself when he did.
Seriously, Saturday was all about sitting in this bin.
Sunday was a bit cooler and rainy. Makes for lazy mornings in front of the tv.
Mare Mare came over later in the day to play.
Scooby puts them into a spell.
Sunday night we broke in our play set.
Matthew as we all know is a big fan of the swings.
At first Noah wasn't too sure...
...but he got into it.
And we ended the weekend like this.

Thursday Video Fun

I meant to post this a few weeks ago - it's a cute video of Matthew and his girls dancing at my niece Ashley's party. Is it any wonder they are all so skinny??!!

Bunny Success & Other Weekend Stories

Saturday morning my good friend Julie came up to spend the day with us. She got in a lot of Noah lovin' time.
She came with us to the mall for our annual Easter Bunny picture. We had much success.
After the bunny, we had some time to kill before meeting my parents for lunch. So Matthew introduced Noah to the magical world of mall rides.
Thankfully Julie was packing some change, because both boys insisted on riding over and over again.
And even Noah seemed to say "What, it's over?" when we finally had to pry their little hands off the steering wheels.
But the promise of lunch works on making Noah a happy camper.
Saturday afternoon, Matthew and I took our first trip to the school playground while Noah napped. Matthew got his sea legs on the small slide.
Then he was ready for the big time. This face about sums it up.
On Sunday, we horsed around at home. We have a new game of "bear attack" - Noah is the bear. He just doesn't know it.
Stay tuned for a special post tomorrow - I'll be featured over at Carrie with Children!

Our Instagram Weekend

Not much to report from this weekend...

We played together.
We played on our own.
And me and Noah Bear perfected our self-portrait.
The End. :-)
