Playing outside

The weather here has been GORGEOUS lately. Cold, yes, but clear and bright everyday. I bundled the boys up and let them play outside after Jack came home from school. Theo's nose was an absolute faucet, so ignore the fountain of snot. I love my new camera! It has an "active child" setting where you can just continuously snap pictures. I think I got some real keepers today!

Rockabye, hotwheel

I know I've posted before about how much Theo loves to push the baby doll stroller around, but here is what a boy takes for a ride: hotwheels or other toys. Never the baby doll! He picks up the toy of his choice, sets it in the stroller and takes off! It was total action photography because he moves fast. Thank goodness for the quick flash of my new camera!

Croup

Theo just can't get a break in the health department. We've basically been home-bound since his hospital stint last month and somehow he came down with croup even with our precautions. Poor baby just looks pitiful and has the runniest nose ever. I had to wake him up early from his nap to take him to the ped today and he was not happy about that! Good thing is that croup resolves quickly. Here's to staying healthy for a while!

Sunday morning

We're still living the shut-in lifestyle (no big crowds or MDO/church nursery for Theo) for a few more days. He was put on Prednisone in the hospital and we were told that it decreases his body's immune system for a month afterwards, leaving him more susceptible to infection. We took it easy this morning and spent time reading the Sunday paper (Jack discovered the funny pages and loved looking at them) and letting the kids watch "Dumbo". Theo crawled up in the red chair with Jack and covered up in the warm blanket. Our weather can't make up it's mind!!!

Visiting the Boudreaux's

A few friends and I went to see Bride Wars today and Dave took the boys over to our friend's Jen & Bob's house while I was gone. We ended up staying for dinner, which was great since we rarely get to spend time with their family. The kids all had a blast together......... lots of superheroes and princess action going on! Even Theo got in on it.

Playing around

Bear with me while I figure this camera out! We took the boys for ice cream and then to the park. It's fun to take pictures with no annoying delay now.

Upgrade!

I took Jack out this morning and got some new Mardi Gras decorations. Dave and I spent literally a whole week throwing stuff away and organizing our house! Now I have room to fill it back up with stuff :) Anyway, we got a Canon XSi camera yesterday and it's going to be my goal to figure it out. Here are a couple of pics that I snapped of our new decorations.
