Noah’s first time in my carrier

I put up all Matt’s photos in the gallery.  I need to find the ones that were taken with the little camera, must still be on the back-up drive.  We didn’t take nearly the photos we thought we would, the boys kept us busy!

awwww… We hadn’t taken any sleeping baby pictures yet because we are so afraid of waking one or the other up, but Noah was taking a ridiculously long nap so I snapped one.

IMG_4818

Noah figured out how to go backwards on Tow Mater, now he can get into stuff with his brother.

Hanging out in our jammies

IMG_4855

Their faces clearly say nap-time!  We received these shirts as hand-me-downs, aren’t they cute?  I promise I was going to put pants on the boys, but after wrestling with Noah for 5 minutes, who btw is way easier to dress, I gave up.  Ezra picked out the flames himself.

IMG_4857

Also, I was only able to get one pic before baby attack!

IMG_4846

Yesterday this cat tried to attack mine through the window.  It was hilarious!  She kept trying and she was growling and smacking the window, giving both my guys the stink eye!  (we have tried to rescue her, but she is very wild, she is the momma of the kittens I rescued last spring, my neighbor feeds her, so she hangs around, but I have never seen her attack my cats)

Noah eating his first injera, he liked it!

IMG_4703

Our week started off with lots of drool and snot!

IMG_4678

You see that mesh thing that is pushed down?  That is supposed to prevent limbs from hanging out, but Noah pushes it down during the night.

IMG_4695

I love this machine!  It spins and it spins!

IMG_4677

Ez discovered the cat toy and he actually had the cat playing with him.

IMG_4712

mmmmm glass!

IMG_4726

Yes there are four sides to the table, but only this one will do.

IMG_4723

Ez knows where are the exits are in the house and he is ready to escape!

IMG_4714

This way?

I have been asked by more than one person why there aren’t more photos on the blog, well I could give you two good reasons, but instead I’ll suck it up and try to share more photos.
