When the cat's away...

the mice will play!! So Big Joe was napping on the couch and Garrett decided he wanted to take up photography. His subject? Katie Bug. We did not discover these pictures til after the drama unfolded LOL.

...I can see it now. Garrett says, "Hey Bug, want me to take your picture?" She happily replies, "Yeah!" "Oh Bug you are so cute!""Work it!" Bug says, "This is fun!" "Ok. I'm done. My turn pwease.""C'mon give me the camera.""I mean it. Starting to get upset here."As Garrett backs away her volume increases! "DADDY!!!!!"

Growing up..

Man no matter how hard I try my kids keep seem to be getting bigger on me. Wasn't it just yesterday I was holding tiny babies?? Little Joe has started the 2nd grade. He loves school as you can imagine and was happy that he got the same teacher as last year (it's a 1st/2nd grade room). He just looks so stinkin big!! Garrett starts p-p-p-preschool next week. Holy COW!! Surely he is still the cute little dimpled baby wiggling on the floor! And Katie...my sweet little Bug. Yeah there's no way she is bigger than the remote on the couch. She is trying so hard to be a big girl. She is attempting to potty train :(. I sold my jumparoo and my high chair this week. There are just all these signs that my kids are getting so big. No more babies :(. Sigh such a bittersweet time. They are all so much fun right now in their own stages. It's just hard to think about how quickly the time is passing. Next thing you know Joe will be driving...oh good gravy someone is going to have to pick me up off the floor that day!!
