It's been a while!

So it's been a really long time since the last post, and I'm not even going to begin to catch up...so moving forward!

Last weekend I decided to convert Davis' bed to his toddler bed and the boys love it! They like to get in it together and read books. I see them sharing a room in the near future! We have also been having a big time with our crazy puppy, Lulu. She's a WILD woman. We love her and are a little afraid all at the same time! Other than that life has been carrying on as normal. We signed Drew up for Kindergarten...wow did I really just say that? He's going to go to Sherwood Elementary and I'm really pretty excited about it. He's starting to practice reading and has really started loving to learn. He's having Tball tryouts this weekend for Round 2 of that and we love it! I love sitting out there and watching him. Davis refuses to even pretend to potty train, but he's so sweet and funny that I don't even care. We are having a great time the four of us!

We're still here!

We are all still here, but I have been very lazy about posting! I have a lot to get caught up on and plan to work on those posts over the next few days! In there meantime, here are a few pictures of our cute boys!

Beach Mini-Golf with the Greens

When we were in Gulf Shores, we were super excited to find out that some of our friends from home were going to overlap our trip by a few days. So we met up for dinner at LuLu's and some mini-golf and go-carts. It was a much needed break from our vacation because Drew absolutely adores Abby Green and he was so glad to have a friend to play with!

Beach Trip 2010

Not sure why I haven't posted these pictures yet...not sure what's wrong with me! Oh wait...life with 2 boys!!! Anyway, these pictures are from our trip to Gulf Shores in September. We went by ourselves...just the 4 of us. And whether that was a good idea or not, we survived. We survived Davis having a serious stomach virus and having like 10-12 dirty diapers a day...and because of this he was extremely needy. If he saw me, I had to be holding him or he would throw a gigantic fit. We survived Drew becoming bored with us and not having anyone to play with. We survived sleep deprivation that put all 4 of us on edge, but we managed to have a great time anyway! We drove through the night and woke the boys up to go through the tunnel, and got to the condo at 2:30am Saturday. We decided to do this because Davis is such a bad car-rider and it was easier if they slept the whole time. Here are the fun things we did. We ate at LuLu's twice, hunted for crabs, played in the awesome kiddie pool, mommy & Davis shopping day, Daddy & Drew beach day, bubbles at the Hangout, mini-golf with the Greens, relaxing on the beach during naptime (Brian and I alternated days), listening to the waves at night, watching BP sweep the beaches for oil and making the sand super soft, playing in the waves, burying each other in the sand, etc. It was definitely a memorable trip and I am so glad we did it even though it was pretty stressful at times.

Shooting Star Drew

Drew you were a shooting star at school today. That means that you have gotten enough behavior stickers to be rewarded. The 2, 3, and Pre-K kids all sit down lining the halls and sing a little song while you stand on a star in the middle. Then they spell your name out while you walk in a little parade and you get to run super fast to me or daddy. It's so cute and we love watching you do that. Luckily Daddy and I were both able to be there today and then he and I snuck off for a yummy lunch date at Gadwall's. We were so proud of you baby!

now for the pictures
