Oh man

Oh man, I got a bit behind in my blogging..... but man what a day. Nathan is at that age, you know the age where no matter how well you think you are watching him, he gets into something so fast that you can't explain it to your husband. Lets see, a few days ago(in the same day) Nathan got red cough medicine and poured it on our bedroom floor, which is now pink. About an hour later, I fed them breakfast, came upstairs to get socks...came downstairs and the syrup from breakfast was all over Nathans hands and face, and my blue couch. Well, today, it happened again. I try to be productive(really honey, I do try to clean) and the more I clean the more mess he makes somewhere else. I was trying to clean the counters off, and I hear Lucas say, "Mom, Look at Nathan" so I did. Vaseline. All over his hair, fingers and now the leather couch. So we cleaned, we changed. An hour later, I am trying to clean out the laundry room. Nathan is quiet. I get nervous. I go look for him....he is in the bathroom and dumped fragrant oil all over himself. This one needed a bath. Lucas was great. He took the role of daddy and helped me take Nathan upstairs and wanted to give Nathan a bath for me. So I put Nathan in and pretended to not watch and Lucas soaped him down and told him he needs to be more careful and proceeded to play the bath games with Nathan that Josh and I do to them. Oh man. What a day. What a period of life. I love my family.

Recently, we celebrated lucas's 4th bday. Instead of people bringing toys for him, we had people bring toys for Toys for Tots. He did awesome, never complained once and I think his heart even grew a little. We had a great night!!!! Wonderful memories, I hope he is old enough to remember.

Also, the boat is in the water:) Let summer begin.....
