I need a snack NOW!

A conversation with Oliver

Oliver:  Mommy, you should put another baby in your tummy.
Me:  Oh really.  
Oliver:  Ya, it can be a boy.  We can name him... Big Boy.  We would be friends!
Me:  How exactly should Mommy go about getting a baby in her tummy.  I don't think Daddy is very fond of the idea.
Oliver:  Maybe you should ask Jesus.
I love the simple faith of children.  If you want something to happen, just ask Jesus!

Funny Story:
The other day Oliver was in the bathroom going poopie while I was doing the dishes.  I turned off the water and hear Oliver say "Oh Hazel, that so nice!"  I walked in the bathroom to find Hazel wiping Oliver's bum for him!  I couldn't help but laugh.  Hazel is such a little mommy.  Always looking out for her brother.  She would have made an awesome big sister. 

 I am so glad they have each other

Hazel wanted to swim with the fish.  Hanging her over the railing was a compromise.

Playing in the Tropical Dome

 Desert Dome

 Eating like a big girl.  No more baby tray and spoon feeding!

 They always play so nice together.  I'm lucky they don't bite and hit each other like a lot of siblings do (at least not yet)

I love my babies.  I am one lucky mommy.

Surf Club quilt

It's finally done!  I have been working on this forever!  I'm really happy with the way it turned out.  I did change a few things from the original pattern.  The Octopus at the bottom is my own design and I think it's pretty cute.  I chose 06 and 18 for the kids birthdays.  I almost did the years they were born but I quickly realized I would be putting 9 11 on the quilt and that's just depressing. Sorry it's so wrinkly, the kids were snuggling under it before I stole it away from them for a quick picture.
