Oops!

So between this year's blog and last year's blog I used all of my storage so I will be starting a new blog, a less structured blog. It will be under a new email so hopefully it'll last a while! You can continue to follow the entertaining lives of Jackson, Vivienne, joe and Bernie please go to munchkinsandmutts.blogspot.com

Play time

We had a fun morning taking pictures, then we headed to Totter's Otterville where everyone had a great time.  Then we had a fun evening playing with bri and Jenna.  Here are a couple pics from Otterville.

Travel day

Today we ran errands around town, visited dad at work and then took off for mamaw's house. The kids were excellent on a very long trip. We were happy to arrive so they for to stay up a little later playing.

Day 310- Sunday night movies

I was lucky enough to go out to the movies and Jackson and vivienne were spoiled rotten with love and attention while I was gone. When I came home we watched Sofia the first and had a fun TV dinner.

I didn't get many pictures today since I spent all morning cleaning and packing, but here are a couple I grabbed this evening.

Day 309- Merry Christmas and a Happy Halloween

We had an exhausting day today.  We started with a fun photo shoot with Amelia and Morgan- Jackson didn't want to leave.  Then, we had fun with Santa's Workshop in the downtown businesses, then went to the Halloween event at the Y and ended watching the Polar Express load and take off.  By the end of the night, Jackson was tired and dropping to the ground in protest often.  We did make it back to the car in one piece and he was even in a good mood, just tired.  I have a very busy day of packing and tomorrow so I'll keep this short and get my rest so that I have the energy to get it all done before my movie date :)

This is what he did instead of story time at Main Line books

Day 308- Light Queen Takes Over

Jackson and Vivienne spent the evening fighting over the shake and go lightning mcqueen, while watching cars- again.  It's late so I'll just share some pictures from today.  I'll try to get some more pictures from tomorrow- we have a full day of fun planned!

Licking the rice he dropped off of the table 

She likes rice too  

She wasn't interested in the tractor he gave her

Help mama, I want to play light queen 

Oh this toy makes noise too! 

I got him all to myself! 

Then, of course, he realizes that Vivienne is playing with his toy and he must claim it back

Day 307- Future Rockstar

We had a fun evening with Ms. Jannet coming to visit for dinner and then was nice enough to stay and help with bath time. Vivienne and Jackson had fun being spoiled with attention.  Tomorrow is Friday and we can't wait!  I'm so sleepy from Jackson's late night parties so I'm hoping his sleepy look means he won't fight me too bad when Cars is over in a few minutes.
Since I was enjoying my visit, we didn't get a lot of pictures taken, but here are a couple :)

Day 306- Wordless Wednesday

Day 305- Messy Night

Well we've cleaned up spaghetti, hair, and poop.  I think I'm done for the week.  We had spaghetti and meatballs for dinner, which is always a favorite for the kids, then we gave Jackson a haircut and then he pooped on the floor.  Yup, pretty much sums up how awesome this night has been.  I still have a lot of paperwork to do so here are the pictures.

Whoa Mom, did you see my brother?  

Mmmmmmmm meatballs! 

I told him to smile and show me his haircut, hmmm 

He insisted that "everybody wear bunny ears" 

Not so sure about her new style 

She's off again
