We love our doctor!

Especially this week. I took Glade on Wednesday because he had a really yucky sounding cough. He has a sinus infection so he got antibiotics. While I was there I asked for meds for Tim too because he also had an infection. Our wonderful doctor wrote me a prescription for Tim! Not many drs will do that. Well, we get to go see him again today. Yesterday Addison's eye started oozing green stuff. As the night progressed it kept getting worse. This morning her eye was all crusty and swollen. Hopefully we will get something to help clear that up. She screams every time we try to wipe it. So it must hurt her. Poor baby. There is a picture below!
Update on our house... we had people come look at on Wednesday. Later that evening our realtor called and said it was the couples' favorite and that they were going to bring their parents back this weekend to see it. We have our fingers crossed we will get an offer in the next few days! Then it will be time for us to really search for a new house. We have been casually looking on line and at model homes, but once we get the offer we will have to get serious about it!
I just realized the time... I better get ready for the dr. appt. I will update on Addison's eye and add pictures when we get home!
Update: Addison has an infection in her eye. Our dr. said it is a little more than just pink eye. She is on an antibiotic for 3 days and eye drops for 7 days. She has been pretty fussy today, so it must be bothering her. Her eye already looks better than this picture though! Poor baby!
Addison and her puffy eye. She kept coming for the camera, this is the best I could get.

We played outside yesterday evening. Glade is not too fond of the dogs yet, they come up to him and he gives them "the look". It is very funny.
They love to climb up steps
She is not camera shy one bit
Just chillin'


She is really happy about the dog, it just looks like she is getting ready to fuss. This face was followed by loud screeching that only Scarlet could understand!
Glade loves to be outside.
They found the dog's toys
I can't tell if he is about to break out in a dance or if he is practicing his surfing skills
" Here puppies"
Glade is now fascinated with sitting on the gate we use to block off the kitchen.That's all for the pictures. We have two showings for our house tomorrow. We are praying that is sells quickly, we really want a bigger house and yard. Tim and I are touching up some of our trim tonight. I better get to painting!
Have a great weekend!

Long Weekend

We had a great weekend. Friday we had dinner with some friends and then played Uno Attack. It is a very fun game. The amount of cards one person can get is hilarious! Just ask Ben Stephens! Sunday we went to another friends house for lunch. She was so sweet to have us over. Monday we cooked hamburgers and hot dogs and had Ben and Dixia and Ben and Kristina over. We played Uno Attack again. Then we played Hoopla which is a very fun game too. It was so much fun to hang out with our friends! Thanks everyone for coming and hanging with us.

Now for the pictures...

I went to the mall this morning to get the babies some new pj's. We stopped at the play area before the rain came in. They love to sit on the bouncy thing!

Glade and Addison had ravioli for lunch one day last week. I think they like it, don't you?

Addison rubbed it all over her face.
Glade used it as finger paint on his high chair.
Addison was playing under her bed in the exersaucer. Yes, she crawled under the bed and sat in the folded up exersaucer. I didn't get that picture, but I did get her crawling out!

It's a rainy day here today. The babies are sleeping, the house is clean. Maybe I will take a nap too!

Swimming, real estate and more!

I haven't posted in a while because we have been busy decluttering our house. We put it up for sale. We need something bigger, the toys are taking over. So far we have had one person come look at it. Hopefully it will sell fast and we can find something bigger! Grammy and Pappy came to visit this week. They had lots of fun with Glade and Addison. Just look and see!

Pappy and Addison reading a book. Addison loves to read books.

Addison just looks like trouble in this picture! I just love her smile
Glade loves to climb on anything these days
Addison reading her book on the fireplace.
Fighting over a nail file. If the winner is determined by the scream, Addison would definitely come in first!
Strawberry Nutrigrain bars are best when smeared all over your face!
The best part of the cabinets are the knobs. She has her mouth over the whole thing.
We got our little pool out while Grammy and Pappy were here. They loved the whale slide.

Glade taking a break enjoying the cool water.

We've had a busy week. Since we just on a whim decided we want to sell our house. I have to say it is very clean right now. We still have some painting and touch ups to do this weekend. Today was our last day of preschool. It's hard to believe the year is over. It was such a fun year, I really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and getting to do what I love...teaching. I worked with a lot of wonderful women. I look forward to next year. I can't believe though that my babies will be in a class. They are growing too fast!

Video, Finally

I think I finally figured out how to put our video on here. This is a clip when Addison and Glade had just gotten up from their nap. Enjoy!

Who needs a playroom?

Who needs a playroom...

...when you can play in the shower!

This picture reminds me of when I would play in the shower at my Granny and Grandaddy's house. Somewhere there's a picture of me and my sister playing hide and seek in Grandaddy's shower!

Noah and Nick came over to play on Tuesday evening. Noah loves to play with Addison. Glade liked playing with Noah shoes. POO WEE!
My sweet little Addison, loves to smile for the camera.
Here we are in our ACU onsies! Notice Glade is holding his pillowcase. I tried to get a picture without it, but no can do MOM! We just had tears!

Happy Mother's Day Mom! We love you!

Yard work

On Saturday we were working on our flower beds out front. We put the big play yard gates together and stuck the babies in for them to play while we worked. They love to play with boxes, so I put the box from the edging in with them. Scroll through the next pictures, it's just like a video!:)



Yes, they were taking turns eating the box! I promise we do feed them! After getting the pictures I took the box away. I guess they needed some fiber?
Glade can climb into the chair now!


They both love their Daddy's hat.

Walking, talking, and snuggling

Glade has been walking for about a month now, but Addison has just really started trying the last few days. I sat down today at lunch during preschool and their teacher asked me when she started walking and talking. :) Addison has really found her voice and loves for EVERYONE to hear her! We went to Petco the other day and I walked them around to look at all the different animals. She really liked that and was getting really loud talking to them. She has started trying to say "uh-oh" but she never gets it all out. She either says "uh" or "oh" but doesn't get them together. It's so cute. She loves to say it as she throws something out of the grocery cart. At least I get my exercise.
Glade has really loved his pillow and especially his pillowcase at bedtime. One day this week he got the pillowcase off of the pillow. He walks around with the pillowcase a lot. It is so cute. He holds it in his hand and sucks his thumb. He has also become very fond of the extension tubes for the vacuum. He will walk around with both of them and try to hold his pillowcase. It's pretty funny! Yesterday he carried around a toy hammer all day. He found one at preschool today and his teachers said that was his favorite thing today. They also said he would try to get a toy from Addison and she started hitting him. Of course that didn't phase Glade so she then started to pinch him. He has several teeth impressions from Addison already. Whatever Addison has, Glade wants!



Glade the chauffeur

They love to climb in the chairs, but this time Addison was stuck.



Fun in the ballpit


Glade had been standing at the dryer just opening and closing the door so into the dryer he went for a cute photo.



And of course Addison had to get a turn too



Addison usually holds onto a burp rag, but she threw it out of her bed, so I found her with the puppy dog yesterday morning. She had been sucking on his ear!Glade and his pillowcase
