Disney Day 2

Seriously mom we have to wear these????

Rylee excited to ride Dumbo!!!!

Baylee not so much...

The boys waiting for another attraction!!! 

Rylee was worn out after a day of fun!!!!

Baylee liked the balloon a little more today!!! 

Disney Day 1

The boys were helping daddy pack a few last minute things before we left...

Final Bagcheck....

The boys on Magical Express as we head to our hotel...

The sign entering the World from the bus!!!

Just entering the gates of the Magic Kingdom!!!!!!!

The boys were not real sure what to think about the characters coming to visit us - we did get a couple of shots....hopefully it gets better as the week goes on...

Baylee REALLY didn't like his Mickey ears!!!! 

Rylee really liked his and of course was mesmerized by his balloon!!!!!

Overall the first day went great - i am anxious to see how the rest of the week goes.  I think we are going to have a great time!!! 

Sunday - fun day!!

We went out to eat with grandma & grandpa today to help celebrate daddy's birthday - after we ate we hung out for a little while - they boys like swinging on the swing.  it took them a little bit to get their bodies in synch together but then they were on their way!! 

They love tree and pointing at things!!

 family shot

Look at these cute, big boys!!

Making some fun music with the windchimes!!

Random recent shots...

Here are some random pictures from the last few days...

Daddy was putting this together to put in the closet - the boys thought it was fun to hop from cubby to cubby...

We ended up having  to put locks on all of the doors - can you see why???

We are still working with utensils - sometimes it is just easier to use our hands!!! 

Our babysitter had a fall party tonight for her families - her she is with her kids past and present!!  You may note that it is MY child that is crying!!!!

Here they are having fun in the bouncehouse - we really need to get one of these!!!!

She had pumkins for all of the kids to decorate!!

Sorry for the lack of pictures lately - mommy has been really busy at work dealing with H1N1 and is really tired when she comes home!! 

One year ago today....

Sorry no new pictures but did want to mention it was a year ago today that we got the second most amazing e-mail of our lives - the email from the Embassy saying everything was approved and we could come get our boys - 12 days later they were resting in our arms!!!  What an amazing year it has been!!!! 

Appleworks

My computer has been down all week and we are just now getting everything loaded back on it so I am sorry for the delay in posting this week.  We went to the apple orchard / pumpkin patch on Sunday and had a great time!!! 

As soon as we got there we saw the train and decided to ride that first!!  Rylee wasn't real sure what to think about it - makes me wonder what he is going to do in two weeks when we head to Disney!!!!

Baylee on the other hand was happy and ready to go!!

Ok maybe not - i think this picture is saying "get me out of here!!!"

With mommy & Aunt Kathy by our side we are settled and ready to go.....

Here we are rounding the bend...however there is no picture of us getting off the train because Daddy was in the barn sliding down the big slide - maybe next year he will take the boys with him too...

Then it was time to go see the animals

After that we got to listen to a little music and we were jamming to that...

Now time for pumpkins!!!

Can you pick it up by yourself Rylee??

Baylee really wanted this one...

But he settled for one more his size...

Had to stop for a photo op at the Appleworks bus...

Then time for picking some apples...

Ok I picked it now somone pick it up off the ground for me!!!!

Fine I will just get another one!!

Rylee wanted to try as well

I think this is Baylee's look of frustration with all of us for not picking up his apple!!!  Truly a face only a mother could love!!

We tried to get a good shot of daddy & the boys but the boys were not really into it...don't they all look cute with the striped shirts on...

Whew the apple orchard will wear you out!!!!!!
