what haven't we done?

This post will be short and to the point, way too much to cover!!

If this isn't confusing....

Friday night we drove to Dallas
Saturday we drove to Houston
Sunday Daniel drove back to Oklahoma
(i took the week off from work)
Tuesday, Sarah and i with the boys are driving to Oklahoma
(Mike is on call)
Friday, Sarah and the boys will drive back to Houston

• Friday night Daniel and I drove down to dallas to spend the night, so we could get up the next day and drive to Houston to see Sarah, Mike, and the boys
• Mom has already decorated for Christmas and was busy baking tons of breads.

    

• We drove Saturday morning to Houston, stopping by Caroline's for a quick minute to surprise her!! I ended up going around to her back window to knock so she could hear me!
• Ethan's birthday is tomorrow but we've been pretty much celebrating almost every day. Sarah made cupcakes and i decorated.

I was proud since i don't really have a creative bone in my body.

Where we usually find Ethan....

The boys...i didn't realize Mike was brushing Jet's teeth when i took this, i just thought they were all playing together, ha!

Ethan blowing out his cupcake!

Uncle Dan & Grant.

Sunday morning we got up and took the boys for a bike ride. Which really means we just jogged next to them.

Ethan feeling the wind in his hair.

I think Grant is actually mad here....

One thing i love about Grant being 4, is he always says the funniest things!!!! I'm always calling Sarah to find out what he said/did that was funny that day.

For example...bath night I was talking to Grant about the amazing girl he was going to marry someday. he got all serious, looked at me and said "do you know any girls?" i was like ummmmm i'll try and find some for you. Then later out of nowhere, he spread his arms really big and said "i'm going to marry the most beautiful girl in the world!!!" i bet you will Grant.

But then at the zoo today, Grant said that only boys could eat cotton candy and girls didn't get any treats. He's not winning any points on that philosophy :)

And i've loved being able to read and sing to the boys and just be around them as their aunt. I love that Ethan can already recognize and say my name. Ethan will just say "mommy, mommy, or daddy. daddy." and when they respond to him he'll just smile at them, SO sweet!!

We went to the zoo today, which is funny that i hadn't gone in over 20+ years, and ended up going twice in one week. If i can say one thing.....going with just Daniel and going with 2 little boys is a COMPLETELY different experience, haha!

We're driving 6+ hours tomorrow with 2 little boys...should be interesting!!!!!

i'll write more later!

love
