my dog the rockstar

never a dull moment

Its so awesome that pammy has year round school, cause when shes off-track..she comes home to visit!!!(and basically stays at my place!) and i LOVE having my pammy around again.

and so do the kids...Pam is the only one who can read stories "better than mommy"


and naps with auntie pammy are the best!

and heres uncle christian chillin...with juniper stuck to him like glue.

and here brandon asleep before me (very rare!) I think its like 8:30 in this picture. for real. man...the kids are tiring. i tell ya.


and...this is LOST night. a fabulous night indeed..where brandon and I pretend to be good hosts and accidently fall asleep on the couch while everyones over. gotta love good freinds. they dont hold it against us. they still keep coming over, in thier pajamas.
i mean..LOST totally sucks now in my opinion. but..i look forward to wednesday nights every week because i love these people...







THIS...right here...these two kids sleeping in the same room...
has been a bloody nightmare.
Its cute and all. and I love that they want to sleep together. but..they stay up giggling and messing around WAY Too late, and then wake up WAY TOO EARLY!! im hoping the novelty will wear off soon. because i just cant say no to my babies wanting to sleep in the same bed together!! its too damn precious!!

some of my best memories with my bro were hiding under the covers with flashlights...sneaking books, having sutffed animal conversations. i just cant deny my kids of that, no matter how f-ing cranky they are the next day.
thats the good shit life is made of. (lets see if im still saying that in a few more days with sleep deprived children running a muck)

Speaking of, they have been playing soooo good together lately. god, these are the moments i have been waiting for . Pretty soon I will be saying "man. im so glad my kids are close in age. they are best friends!" shit. hope ididnt just jinx myself there.
