BUILDING, BOXES, BABY things, and BUBBLES!

Here is the boys putting together the baby's bassinet. They love to help build things, but even more LOVE the boxes that they come in. They played in the box for days straight. They have also enjoyed helping me get ready for the baby by washing the baby clothes. I get a kick when they pull a little outfit out and say, "Did I wear this mom?"

Of course it helps to play in a box when your dad cuts out a wonderful house with shape windows for you. Yes, one of the activities was 'decorating' their box. I didn't know we would have such a melt down about getting marker on our hands as we did though. Any tricks to getting marker on your hands off please let me know. We tried soap and hairspray. The next day it was fine, but man they were upset that night.




One our favorite pastimes lately is letting the boys play in the jetted tub with bubbles for like an hour. I was folding clothes in the room next to the tub, just listening. I overhear Austin say to Luke, "We are best friend brothers aren't we?" It was defiantly a proud momma moment. I really love that by boys are best friends (most of the time). We are getting so excited to see our new brother any time now. Most likely we will just go ahead with the C-Section on March 8th though.

I sure do love those 'best friend brothers'. I wish I could tell you what gets permanent marker off the skin (besides time) 'cuz I've had to put up with blue, red, green and black marks on my hands sometimes for days when I'm sloppy with the pens. Give those boys a big hug and kiss from me. Take care.
