Happy Valentine's Day!!

Yesterday we were fortunate enough to ship the boys off to Grammy's for a sleepover, while we went out on a much needed date! First, a few shots of the boys in one of their many pairs of Valentine's pjs!

Caramel rice cakes...great bribery tool!

And Miles thought he should have some more...
As you can see, Eli wasn't too thrilled about that!

The food was quickly inhaled, and our photo-op was over!

So while the boys were in great hands, Nader and I met up with some of our friends, and had a great dinner at Hyde Park. We finished the evening with a little night cap...or two! ;) We had a fantastic time, and are so thankful that Grammy and Papa Steve kept the boys overnight!! When all was said and done, we all had a fantastic Valentine's Day!!

Happy New Year!!

We brought in the New Year with our great friends, The Puchmeyers!! Eli and Bella had their first sleepover, and slept in the same room without incident. We were thrilled, and enjoyed hearing them talk before falling fast asleep. The kids got to have some fun before we shipped them off to bed though!

How sweet is that?

The kids went to bed, and we had a great time playing the Wii, having great conversations, lots of food, and of course a few adult drinks!

Anna, Melissa, Callista and I

Anna and her au pair friends

I look a little scared, lol!

Ringing in the New Year with my love!

(Notice Callista and Puch in the backround, and our Christmas Ale stares!)

Happy New Year!! Here's hoping 2010 is filled with health and happiness!!

Fun with Paul Matthew and Doyle!

Due to some crazy circumstances, we had the pleasure of keeping Peej and Doyle with us for a few days. Matt was headed back to Florida to help Ben drive the moving truck back, (YAY, he's finally coming home!) and Devon was also in Florida, due to the unfortunate passing of her father. It's been a rough month for everyone in this family to say the least! While driving back with her sister, Devon got stuck in the huge winter storm of 09', and they were stuck in West Virginia for a couple of days. Eli and Miles had a great time bonding with Peej and Doyle though!!

Bath time for the big boys!

All clean...Eli is in a trance due to The Backyardigans being on tv!


Sweet little man Miles

mmmm, Paublo looks tasty!!

Eli was getting too close for comfort here, lol!

Hard at work with their blocks!

Miles and Doyle

Sweet boys!

Surprisingly, watching 3 boys, each only 10 months apart, it wasn't bad at all! The boys all had a great time, and we loved having them here!!
