Dirt, smiles, half birthday's, towers, and fun!

Gatlin is learning that it's fun to be a boy...and messy!

Jav has discovered a love of doughnuts, sunglasses, and towers! He will build a tower out of anything he can scrounge up: dirty clothes, slippers, shoes, spit rags, towels, blankets, pillows, sippy cups, blocks, cars...you name it, he has built a tower out of it!

Our backyard has been a work in progress! We finally got it seeded last Saturday but a half acre of dirt is a litte boys dream come true! My boys have been filthy for days! They loved helping to plant the tomatoes and peppers! You gotta love a little boy in his shorts and cowboy boots!

Javin celebrated his  2 1/2 year birthday! He ask me for a pink bunny cake and we had to sing him the birthday song and let him blow out 2 candles! Hilarious!

Jav and Gat love this tent...unless they are in it at the same time!

And at the end of the day...

Exhaustion!

Javin's Wit and Wisdom

"When a baby grows big, a binky can fit in him."
"When daddy gets little he can jump on a little tramp."
"Share the pie, don't eat the pie."

"Mom, I hurt my toe."  It was completely split on the bottom.  We washed it out and put neosporin in it. "Thanks mommy! It's feeling better already."

Jav was watching me fold laundry (he usually wants to help, thank goodness he didn't this time).  "Thanks for folding my shorts and shirts mom!"

He prefaces everything with, "Please I have..."

jav: "Yuck, I don't like icecream."  Me: You don't like icecream?  Jav: Yes I do!

He loves this blanket that Grandma Paula made him and he only refers to it as one thing: my comfy, warm blanket!
