All sorts of cuteness happening here

In between (and during) all of the silliness and dress up, I have a couple super cute kids :)

 Even his little butt crack is cute!!

 Happy Valentines Day!

 Cute dog. Hehe.

Come on a trip with us...

Going anywhere is always an adventure when Aiden is involved. :)  He makes sure he is wearing at least a little bit of his own choice wardrobe anytime we leave the house.  Church is usually the only time I get to pick everything (although he usually takes something in his pocket or the car of his choice). 

I remember before Jeff and I had kids we would always giggle at the little kids at the store who were dressed up in their halloween costumes in the middle of summer.  :)  Now I have THAT kid... and I LOVE it. Here are some golden pics to show you what I mean...

On our way to Sarah's baby shower. Boys all cute and cleaned up.  Aiden sneaks his fire boots on right before we leave.

 Von Maur.  Running down the aisles in his spiderman gloves and fire hat.

Then Grammy got him a new watch and so it was spiderman gloves, fireman hat, and the watch.  And oh how he checked that watch.  

 Hy-Vee.  7:00 AM.

Trip to Hy-Vee again.  "Mom it's beautiful out there!"

Emmitt doesn't pick out his clothes yet (he would choose naked anyway), but he does make things "interesting" in his own way when we are out and about.  

Take this for example: Von Maur, Mother's room to nurse.  This is all that happened....

"I want down.  I want down. I want down. I want down. I want down. I want down."

"Hey look at this little boy.  He's so cute.  I'm gonna get him!"

Silliness and Dress-up

Silliness

Our lives are full of it.  

 I tell Aiden to eat over the book so he doesnt get crumbs on the bed.  He eats like an inch away from the book. So literal, hehe.

He wasnt ready to put his shovel away. So he decided he would just shovel water.

Just chillin in E's bumbo eating crackers...

Got new minion underwear.....

Getting dressed with Aiden: Enough said.

 Aiden's regular attire. 

 He even sleeps in it.

 ....

 My kids are nothing short of awesome.

 Fire Chief.  Another one that makes a regular appearance. 

 Also add Halloween socks to this outfit. 

 He makes his friends dress up when they come over. Even if they don't want to.

He left the deck for 2 seconds and comes back out wearing his swimming trunks and singing about monkeys.

Honestly.  This kind of outfit doesn't even phase us anymore. 

I absolutely LOVE it! :)

Aiden puts on his work face (and clothes) when he has jobs to take care of...

What you can't see is the mud ALL over the deck... 

 Let him out of your sight for 3 seconds... seriously.

The mud from above turned to dirt so he got out the broom and cleaned it up.  While wearing his swimming trunks and goggles of course.

This is the kind of stuff I love finding around the house.  I walked into the bathroom one night and found these layed out just like you see in the picture. It made me giggle. :)

 Silly or not silly; that is the question.

Aiden got a terrible haircut so I got out the scissors to fix it when we got home.  I ended up not cutting anything because it was too far gone, but made the mistake of leaving the scissors on the counter while I went and nursed E.  Jeff took his eyes off Aiden for a minute so the following happened...

Aiden walks into E's room.  Mandy looks at Aiden and sees that Aiden is somehow missing hair. 

"Aiden did daddy try to fix your haircut?" Mandy says.

"No, I did!  All by myself!" Aiden says triumphantly.  

"Ummm." replies Mandy. Then she bursts out in a fit of laughter which causes her to start laugh-crying.

"Mom, Im so sorry, don't cry." Aiden says when he sees the tears rolling down his mom's face.

"No Aiden, I'm not sad.  I love you."

I love our life. I love that it is full of silliness and dress-up and crazy antics.
