Myles

I took some particularly funny/interesting pics of Myles this week.  He is unique, to say the least.


We were sitting down to dinner when Myles ran into his room.  This is what he came out wearing (or not wearing).  He chose to accessorize his nakedness with a ribbon from his teddy bear.  What a wonderful dinner outfit.


He was very proud of his attire.


Myles and Caesar.  I swear, the cat is better with the boys than our dogs are.  He loves to snuggle with them in the morning.


Myles even shared his blanket.

March Madness

We have had a super busy month so far.  I took over teaching full time at the boys preschool.  I am now Mrs. Kat, 3 year old teacher extraordinaire.  I took the place of a teacher that went out on maternity leave.  So far, I am really enjoying the work.  It's crazy to say but I missed working 5 days a week.  Another change is that the boys are now in school 5 days a week.  They are doing okay with our new routine but not as excited as I am.  Did I aspire to be a preschool teacher?  No, but it works out with our schedule right now. 
Aside from work, Josh and I have been working on our foster care classes.  We have one more to go. We should be finished next week and will start working on getting our license. 
In the latest news, we just had a visit from Gramma.  She was nice enough to make the long drive down to hang out for St. Patty's Day weekend.  She left today and we miss her already.


Last weekend I had the pleasure of watching 4 crazy little boys.  Anna has been watching our kids for our foster classes in exchange for us watching her boys.  It has worked out great.


Can you believe I got them all to sit together for lunch?  With 4 wiggly boys this was quite a feat.  Actually, they were really great.  I think it's easier to have 4 than 2 as they kept each other entertained.


Last Sunday I worked at Chimney Rock.  Josh and the boys came with me. Emily just got a red tailed hawk and hey just had to come meet her.  She was hit by a car and is now non-releasable.  We will use her to do programs for kids.  I can't wait to work with Ghost!


How cute are these little ones?!  This is part of my class, all dressed up for St. Patrick's Day.


Gramma and her boys.


Swing and a miss.  Josh has been throwing the ball with the boys.  We will see if they want to try baseball next year.  For now, I'm not ready to cart them all over the place for sports.

A Weekend of Testosterone

The boys had a action packed weekend.  Full of fast vehicles and guns.  On Saturday, our friends invited the boys out to their property to ride ATVs.  I opted out of this excursion as I think I would have had a heart attack seeing my boys on four wheelers.  Josh assured me that they were safe and he ran along side of the ATV.  I'm going to pretend that that is what really happened.

On Sunday, we took the boys to Fun Depot.  They loved the games and rides but their favorite part was playing laser tag.  The laser tag vest was so big on Myles that I had to hold on to him.  If I let go, he would topple over.  It was too cute.
  I have to say, having two boys is always an adventure.

Myles was ready for his turn.


They meant business.


Just call him the Terminator.
