Nightly Entertainment-Superhero Style


The boys found their old jammies in their drawers and provided us some hilarious entertainment last night.  Both their personalities instantly change once a cape is attached.  Ty only talks in a gruff voice and Brayden busts out lots of kicks and karate moves. Oh and there is lots of jumping off the couches trying to fly.  And competitions to see who is faster or stronger.  
Aren't the little velcro capes so cute?
 Of course they have to show off their superhero muscles
 And get a little wrestling in to see who's the strongest

My lil' Buddy

He put the headband on all by himself to do his "mouse-cercises"

Hanging out with this little guy every day is pretty great and always entertaining :)

Funny Sleepers


My favorite thing to do is check on my boys after they have fallen asleep.  Seriously they sleep in the funniest ways and usually I'm pulling stuff off their beds and out of their cribs to make room for them to even fit!  Brayden's latest thing is to set up a whole bunch of random toys and stuffed animals around him before he falls asleep so he is usually scrunched on his bed. And Tyler, well he just sleeps with the same "draw" toy every night, but usually has a leg up on his crib sides or his blanket wrapped around his head.  Doesn't matter how crazy kids can be during the day, they always look so darn cute when they are asleep. It always makes me want to pull them out of their beds and bring them to mine to cuddle, until Guy knocks some common sense back into me :) 
Tyler sleeps with this toy every single night. He literally takes it with him everywhere!
We laughed at his line up of hats next to him
Blankie, sippy cup, draw toy...all that Ty needs to be happy
Backpack, helicopter, disney race number, stuffed animals galore
Ty wiped out on the couch....I love that he still sleeps with his bum in the air. 

  And yes, we really do own pajamas for our boys, but they like to sleep in undies and diapers since it's been such a hot summer. We turn off our a/c at night and just use fans....definitely looking forward to cooler temps here eventually.  Just a few more months of HOT!

Labor Day Weekend

 We did a Disney weekend for Labor day. Our pass expires in 2 weeks so we're trying to get our last minute trips in. I thought for sure it would be crazy, but the parks were surprisingly not too crowded at all.  So nice compared to summer!  It's still blazing hot though which makes walking around so miserable  for pregnant me.  But it's all about the kiddos at disney world so I tried to think happy thoughts. Brayden was in charge so we followed him wherever he wanted to go and he liked being the leader.

 The best part (I thought) was at Hollywood where BB and I took a little 30 minute drawing class with a disney animator.  We learned how to draw daisy duck.  I'm surprised we've never done this before but it is kind of tucked back on the side and I honestly didn't know it was there. Too bad we won't be going back, but it was really cute to see how concentrated Brayden was on his drawing.  That boy loves art!
 Ty hates all the characters up close but he was especially afraid of the incredibles.
 I guess they are kind of big and scary with those big plastic, masked heads!
 Trying on all the hats in the gift shops :)
 Last time at Epcot
 Coloring duffy bears in each of the countries at Epcot
This is Brayden's #1 request every time we go :)
Tyler needs a hair cut SO bad.  On the to do list this week :)
Such a fun weekend...I'm already counting down the days until Brayden gets another day off school...too bad it's not until Veteran's day in November. Blah! I'm kind of missing our care free summer days already, but I guess that's part of growing up!

Booster Seat Envy


 We bought Brayden a new booster car seat last week since he was growing out of his old one.  Ty and I picked it up at Target while he was at school and put it together.  The whole time Tyler kept thanking me over and over for "his" new car seat (he was so excited about it.) I kept telling him it was for Brayden, but he didn't care. It was his as far as he was concerned because Brayden wasn't around!  He watched cartoons in it and carried it around the house with him all afternoon...It was cracking me up.  He wasn't too happy when we finally took it to the car and Brayden got to sit in it and not him (slight drama), but he's gotten over it now I think (a week later.)
I love how he started out sitting like this for his movie....
And ended up lounging after awhile :)
