Its great to be the youngest!

Kevin and I are both the youngest in our families. That means...we both have older siblings that are done having kids. So we have gotten a ton of clothes from them. A few weeks ago, I was getting Drey dressed one day and I was just feeling like he wears the same things over and over again. And some of his clothes were starting to get small on him. I thought, well...time to go shopping I guess. But then I remembered...I have a ton of clothes down in my basement just waiting for him to grow into. So, I went "shopping" in my basement! I went down, and this is what I came up with. Isn't it great? This is only the 12-18 month clothes.

Just some cute pics!

I have been spring cleaning my house. Its been really hard to do all by myself with 2 kids! Drey follows me around, climbs up behind me on the stool when I'm cleaning up high, and he loved the vacuum the other day. He thought it was fun to stand on.

Jena loves to play on the computer. It amazes me how she can manuver around the mouse, click on whatever she wants, and can do it all by herself. I can leave her and she is just fine to play by herself. She's only 2!




For some reason, lately Drey has been all about his carseat. I often find him just sitting or laying in it in the kitchen.

So, I have been thinking for about the last month, that Jena is at the point where she doesn't really need a nap everyday. Its so hard for me to not give her a nap, because that is MY time. I love it when both of my kids are asleep and I can have some peace and quiet to myself. (I really do love my kids, I promise!) But lately it is just a fight to get her to lay down for a nap, and by the time I actually do get her to stay down in her bed, its late and I really would rather her not take a nap because then she won't go to bed at night. Here are just a couple funny pictures of the first day that I purposely didn't give her a nap... This was dinner time. I was trying to get mine and Kevin's dinner ready and both of my kids were screaming! (I don't know why Drey was crying...probably just because Jena was.) I thought it was actually funny I had to take a picture. Lets just say, I reconsidered my whole no nap idea the next day. Its now about an every other day nap routine.
