Oy!!

I know, I know. I haven't posted for ages. It's just been so crazy busy around here, and to take more than a few minutes at a time to sit at the computer, just doesn't happen often!! :) Usually nap time would be my blog time....but I admit, I've been giving in and having a few of those lately too. : ) Time flies when you're havin fun. And that's what we've been doin!! Thank God for keepin these boys so happy & healthy. It's been a blast takin them outside & to the park, swimmin in the backyard kiddie pool, we even got to the water park one night last week. :) Otherwise, between normal day to day stuff, and pickin up some extra time at work--it's just crazy that it's July already!!
That means only about 8 wks till Colby turns 2!! My baby!! Yeah, my 34 lb almost 2 yr old!! Some baby!!! What a hoot, he's talkin all the time now and HAS to be by his brother. :) He's a hugger!! And Ryan will sometimes get enough and say "I don't want you right now Colby!! Stop hugging me!!" lol. And Colby just eggs him on....such a smartie pants!! Thinks that since he had a cookie for breakfast at Grandma's....that now he goes to the cupboard and says "oootie, oootie" and please!!! right away when he gets up!! ha! try to break that one! : ) We usually end up with an animal "cookie" or graham cracker to start with instead. :) He's hilarious. I've taken zillions of new pics, I'll post my link to my facebook photos so you can see them easier.
Ryan, too is a hoot. He'll be 4 in October, and the other day when we went to Walmart to pick up a gift, said as we pulled into the parking lot "We gonna get pictures taken today, Mom?" I told him no, not today--thinking he didn't want to. We haven't done any for almost a year anyway. But then he says "But please Mom. I want to sit up on that thing and hold the 4". Seriously?!?!! So in our monster truck t-shirt & shorts, we got the best picture of him, ever!! : ) Can't wait to get them back--only hope we can convince Colby to let us get some taken of him! ha!
Ryan's on a weekender at Grandpa Jack & Grandma Angie's house as of tonite, he could hardly wait to get out the door. Yeah, I still cry when they leave. :~)
He's got such an imagination--always "pretending, Mom" about one thing or another. Has decided that "bon-gars is my favorite store, Mom" and we have to stop in there quite often to check out the farm toys. :) He's all boy--and loves his machines!! :) Has been wearin his CAT hardhat that my grandpa leil gave him--all over the place. :) It's awesome.
These boys make our lives so wonderful. We are so happy to have them as our babies!! We've been married for 5 wonderful years now, but by far the best 3 1/2 have been the latest. Nate's comin up on a year of workin out at ADM already. He really does like it alot, and keeps so busy--very nice change of pace. I've been at Women's Health now for almost 5 years--hard to believe!! So we're just movin on day by day, blessed far beyond our imaginations could have guessed. : ) Feel free to check out my facebook photo albums, and look at all the fun we've been having!!
