Breaking the rules

 

We decided not to follow the "no baths for 10 days" rule. We made it to Day 4. We didn't wash his hair, though.

Joey's Surgery

Joey had surgery this morning at Children's Hospital in Birmingham to correct a trigger thumb. The tendons in his thumb were too small causing him to be unable to extend his thumb properly. It was a condition that he was born with, but we did not notice it until last month. The doctor said it often does not present itself until age 2. We chose to do the surgery today because I am off work for 2 weeks. Andrew is always a screamer after anesthesia, but Joey was peaceful and quiet. He is not very fond of the cast, and he tries to pull it off. When he woke up, he told us that he wanted Andrew.

My Rooster

Andrew was the rooster in his Christmas skit at school. His line:

Your birth I will announce, and I will crow to tell Peter he was wrong!

Christmas Break

Yesterday, we enjoyed our first day of the break. It is so warm here.  The boys love going to playgrounds, and this one had a rock climbing wall. Both of them climbed it like monkeys!

Don't touch!

If you have an elf on the shelf, you know the only rule is that you are not supposed to touch him. He will lose his magical powers. Oh well!

New Ornaments

 

The boys get a new ornament each year that represents something about them from the year. Currently, Andrew loves bowling. Joey loves taking baths. He begs to take one each night.

Andrew's Class

Andrew asked me to take pictures of his classroom the other day. He is such a random little dude. He likes to tell the class hermit crab, Bama, bye at the end of each day.

Elmo

Joey is in an Elmo phase right now. He loves everything about him. The Rathmells gave him this doll for his 2nd birthday (still need to post those pictures) and it is his favorite thing.

Forgotten Beach Pictures

      We love going to the beach each year with my parents.  We began a tradition once we had kids of taking my parents to the beach as a way to thank them for all that they do for us.  Well, I am not sure how much of a thank you it is since they will not let us pay for any food and help us tremendously with the boys.  Thank you, Grandmommy and Granddaddy!  We all love you both!
 
I was scrolling through some old pictures, and I don't think that I posted any of these.  I am ready to go back now!

Circle Chair

My boys like to sit in this chair together and eat an afternoon snack while they watch tv. I remember doing this same thing with my siblings in a green chair in our first house each day.

Name

We started working with Andrew on writing his name this week. We let him trace dots for a couple of nights. Tonight, we tried with no dots. I'm pretty impressed!
