splish splash/snip snip/chomp chomp



 Well we are 3 for 3 on little boys that love their car washes. Lenon has officially been thrown into the nightly carwash routine. We eat supper then Pat takes the boys and hits up the bathroom and scrubs all the little boy dirt off the 3 boys!

 Leonon is now part of the splish splashing in the tub with his brothers. He squels and splashes right along with his brothers
 We have a rule in our house when it comes to the boys hair. Its time for a hair cut if their hair starts to stick up and do wierd things. So this week we had some sticker upper hairs so we had to fix it.
So it was time to strip them down and get buzzing! they are both pretty descent now, they barely get upset anymore. only when the hair get in their mouth or if I try to vaccum the hair right off their body. lol That was Nelsons AFTER picture
 And this was Westons before picture!




Chomp Chomp Lenon is a cheerios eater now. Well those are healthy version of cheerios but basically cheerios! This little boy is a EATER!!!!! I get a little panicked when I think that maybe he is eating more thatn his brothers did at his age..... and to know how much they eat now...... oh my what have we done!!!!!!!
 You cant reallt tell in these pictures but Lenny has a bit of a Fro! He has these little cute curls. They are so cute but they bug me. Because they qualify as hair sticking up and sticking up hair annoys me lol Ive been debating buzzing his curls off. But Iam trying to hold off and let his curls fully form and see what it looks like . Neither of his brothers had curly hair so I sort of want to experience it on him. I will hold off for a bit, but cant qaurantee I wont get buzzer happy one day!

Date with ma dude!/ Big Noz

Today was aWeston and mom date day! Its not often him and I get to go out and do things just him and I. So today due to it being march break there were 2$ movies.
So i surprised him this morning by taking him to see one.
He kept trying to guess on the drive there what we were going to do.
He thought we were going to the Y because I told him to wear his sneakers today. He thought it was because he would be running, but in fact I just wanted him to look cool!
So when we pulled into the parking lot he was confused. he said " why are we here mommy? this is the movie parking lot"
Well buddy its because that is your surprise. We are going to a movie! " But mom movies take to long"
Hahahaha so much for my excitment in surprising him! he was disappointed hahahah
Just when you think they will Love it.....
Pat said the funny thing is he probibly would of been more excited to go out and shovel snow at home!
W|hat a guy.
But we stayed and he ate popcorn and his little pack of healthier gummie bears and drank a apple juice.!
Thank God for snacks or he would of had a awful time at the movies hahahha


 We saw Alvin and the chipmunks. He said he didnt really like it because it was a bad movie. there were parts he didnt like so i guess it was a "bad movie" hahaha but we danced and laughed thru it!

 We were posing in front of the movie sign but you cant see it!
Then we went to superstore grabbed a slice of pizza and ate it while we shopped.
Dinner and a movie 6$ cant beat that!



Next awesome thing of the day was Nelson for the first time ever decided he wanted to go to Grammy's house for his first solo sleep over.
That is a big deal for Nelson. we were all shocked that he went thru with it! Hes not a risk taker or even tryer of things. He likes to stick close to home unless weston goes with him.
So today he pulled a BIG NOZ!
One day Pat convinced him to go into the Freight Liner work truck . So ever since then Nelson says " Daddy call me. Big Noz, I go in freight liner me not scared"
So when he pulls out a big boy move we call it a Big Noz.
So he packed his little bag and got dressed and waited for Grammy to pick him up. Tuesdays are usaully Weston sleep over nights, but today he chose to stay home. So i asked Nelson if he wanted to go , and to my surprise he said yes. It was cute. I went to wake him up from his nap, and while he was still half asleep I asked him if he wanted to go and he said YES, then he sat up and said "pack my bag" and he thru his blanket at me .I kept asking him if he really wanted to go and he never waivered!

 We got bored of waiting inside for Gram, so we decided to do a bit of shoveling to pass the time.
The boys love to shovel, they begged yesterday to go shovel. So I let them. I let them play outside while lenon and I are inside watching thru the door. The rule is they are not allowed to go past the railing to our steps . They can go as far as the railing but no farther so they stay down at the bottom of our driveway.I looked out once and I saw weston going past the mark and I asked him what he was doing. He says "oh mom Iam just going to shovel all the steps in the front so when our guests come over they can use the front door and not get snowy"
It was awesome. Then I chuckled to myself and thought, I wonder how many years before I will have to fight with them to go and shovel the front walk way. ...........
 I am enjoying the days of them being excited to help with bringing in wood and shoveling and taking out the garbage....... who knows how long it will last

Gotta have a work truck


Well our little worker Weston has been talking about buying a work truck for a year now. He saves his money so when he is bigger he will buy himself a truck.
So until hes bigger he has decided that he will make his own so him and Nelson can go to work together,
I woke up the other morning and got ready for us to leave, as we all tromped down the stairs we came to a hault at the bottom.
pushed right up to the landing was 4 chairs. I immediatly said Weston whay are those there.
That is Nelson and I's work truck.
Wow pretty creative and pretty hardcore!



 After we moved the chairs far enough away that we could get off the steps he continued to tell me that the white box on the front seat was his breifcase with his paperwork and Nelson has a seat in the back because he is to small to ride in the front seat, and then the blue box was to hold their tools!!!!

So if that wasnt cool enough , over the weekend Papa and weston actually built a work truck!
 Weston working along side Papa!
Weston was playing it cool for this picture! its almost finished , but it needs to be painted and lights put on! cant wait to see the finished product!!!!!

Fresh BREAD and other things!

Iam on a mission lately to find a good tasting Gluten Free bread recipe. I had be experimenting in my bread maker until last week i tried to do just that and discovered someone had lost the paddle for it. GRRRRRRR not impressed. So I bit the bullet and decided to give oven baked bread a shot.
So I pulled out the mixer and got started!

 I was pretty pumped to see it rose and everything . so I threw into the oven to see how that went.
 Not to shabby for first time bread makiing. Was a little dark but nothing I cant perfect next time
It wasnt terrible but it was great either. For anyone that knows about gluten free bread will know what Iam talking about!
Next day Weston and I decided to get our Juice On!

 We made 2 jars of grapfruit juice and a jar of orange! Weston loves to help!
 Had to throw this picture in. It makes me laugh because we from the beginning pegged Lenon as the free spirit artistic type out of the 3 boys. Weston loves to work, Nelson does to , but less of a  adventurest than Weston but they both talk about going to work all the time etc. And while I took this picture the other two boys had their work hats and work clothes on and i see Lenon crying when I put this hat on. I laughed because it seemed so fitting that he doesnt like to even pretend to be a worker guy! hahahaha I am looking forward to seeing what paths each of the kids take in their lives.
 Oh this picture is awesome. Well awesome because its shows Weston playing a memory game with me! and if you notice what he is pointing at , its his pile that is larger than mine! hahaha this kids has a amazing memory. he actually beat me! and I wasnt letting him win! He really is that good! And Iam good at those types of games. He also rocks at puzzles and things like that. He seems to be taking after me in those areas! kinda cool!
 hahah Weston has of late been wearing his bathing cap in the bath. its too cute. Weston and Lenon had their first bath together last night. Weston was pretty excited. it went good until i looked away for a second and Weston stood up and knocked Lenon over and splooosh went Lenon!
 Most of the pictures are just Weston and Lenon. Thats because Weston just loves hanging out with him so I get descent pictures. Nelson doesnt stick around loing enough to get a picture with them.
 Oh this one is funny. It was this morning, i had to take a picture. The boys eating breakfast . One fully clothed and one fully nude! thats our Nozzy!.All his undies where in the dryer so we didnt bother toget dressed for most of the day. Didnt bother him one bit! lol
 Nudy boy sitting in a basket thing
 Lenon looking so big and sweet! notice his wild hair. We have a curly boy!
That brings us up to date on our blog! hopfully I can keep up and Blog more often! heres to hoping!

Family fun Fredericton trip

Feb 9th we decided to head to fredericton for the weekend to visit Marc and Mel.
We left a day earlier than we thought because Pat had a meeting lined up so we left after we got home from preschool.
We originally intented to stay until sunday but because of a snow storm predicted for saturday night we figured we would have to cut out trip short so the leaving thurs worked out good.
We hit the road around 1.
Whenw e got there we took the kids to chapters to burn off some energy!
We had supper with marc and relaxed, mel was working late!
Friday morning we packed into the car and hit the passport office.
It was perfect time to go , i got in to see a clerk within 5-7 min. and within a few min i knew i had to get his picture redone! thankfully there was a place within walking distance so thats what we did.
The new picture is the one on the left and the reject is the not so great shiney forheaded one on the right.

 So when i got back to the office it had picked up a bit but I was still in and out within 15 min. not to shabby. After getting the passport taken care of we went back to chapters because they had a blast the day before. Weston and I decided to surprise aunt Mel at her work and bring her a present to brighten her day. So we picked our gifts out at chapters and had them wrapped for free there ( super cool ) and off we went to go surprise her.
Marc met us and brought us up to her office. she was surprised and Weston was pumped to see where she worked.
Then we went back to the house and had a little quiet time. nelson napped while i watched shows on Mel's new Ipad. Weston and Pat and Lenon ( who was having a hard time falling alseep because he was over tired) went off to check out equipment. Then when Mel came home she took them to see someone she knows who has a similar business.
Marc bbq'd the best steak I think Ive ever eaten. it was amazing, so much so that Pat ate his whole steak . I was sort of annoyed because i was sure i would get to finish his for him but nope he ate it all. So that means it had to be good!
Then Pat , weston and M&M rushed off to go swimming at a place that had a huge water slide and other things. They didnt have much time but it was prob all Weston could handle.
We got Weston in bed and we all just chilled and chatted!
Up saturday morning had breakfast, and then hit the sledding hill. we had to cut out a few other activites that were planned because of the snow that was planned to start mid day.
 Pat brought their old GT racer sled. so the guys took Weston down for a few runs. Uncle Marc as strong as he is would drag Weston back up on his sled. I went down once with Weston but he wasnt getting no free ride. he helped me pull up the sled. that might of been why shortly after Weston was done! hahaha
it was short lived but fun. We then hit McD's for coffee and muffins aunt Mels treat, before hitting the road. We made it back to the cmap before the snow really started coming down.We decided to stay out in Salisbury because Pat would have to go plowing ealry in the morning. So we spent the afternoon at the camp where Lenon and the boys played, ate  and had fun

Pat and I slept at his parents house whil eth eBoys stayed up at the camp with Nanny and Papa for a sleep over. Weston was pretty pumped to help Papa clean the driveway in the tracker. it was funny every time the tracker would back up we could hear Weston honking the horn . After a while I clued into what he was doing , he was using the horn as a back up peeper ! what a guy
We had a great relaxing family filled weekend! doesnt get much better than that!
