Busy week...

Me and the kids have been running around Laredo this week. I've been looking for indoor places to take them now that Brewer has developed a sense of temperature. (He asked me last week why it was so hot outside and then preceded to inform me that it shouldn't get that hot. LOL ) We've decided that McDonalds (Ugg) and the play place at the mall are the big keepers for them. I like the Library as well..mostly because it's nice and quiet. Somewhere along this adventure Roxi lost her binki chain. So, I got adventurous and decided to make her a new one. there was some disagreement as to which ribbon to use so I caved and she ended up with not one new binki chain..,but two.

             I think it's kind of wonderful (and a little sad) how the kids are developing preferences for things. They both have things they do and don't like and part of me has thought that for a while now. Lately though it seems that they are starting to vocalize those preferences all the time. In some ways it makes my job much easier. Like I don't have to pick out there clothes, or ask them 5 times what they want for breakfast, or make guesses as to what they want for their birthdays.  But in other ways it makes it a little more difficult. Like me having to explain at length why chocolate pudding is not a staple for breakfast. But hey, it's not like I have a say in it. They're growing up and no matter how much I wish they'd stay my little babies forever, they won't. I'ts okay though. Because someday they'll be able to do the dishes by themselves. >:D (insert evil laugh here)


Oh! Here are some pictures...
