Two Devils In The Tub

I have not been whipping out my camera as often these days. I have been so excited about some crochet projects I have started, which I am sure some pictures will soon follow. For instance, this was the only shot I got at the Zoo on Saturday at Dan's work party....

That is pretty bad.

So I decided to take some of the boys yesterday in the tub since they were SO excited for a bath. I stuck Levi in and was getting all the necessary stuff rounded up and Zack was getting so mad that I was not putting him in too. Every time I walked away from the tub (holding him) he would get stiff as a board and yell. He loves the tub, just like his brother. Here they are enjoying the tub being the angels they usually are!
I decided to do their hair in devil horns, which didn't work out quite that great:) Since I am not one to claim that my kids are perfect angels all the time, I decided there are things I love about each stage they have gone through and things I don't so much care for. Needless to say, this is not your typical mommy brag post!
First there is this little "devil" (not really a devil, just the hair!). I love his sweet personality and his gorgeous blue eyes. I love that he is so entertained by all the things he can now explore as he is crawling and pulling himself up on everything. However, don't let that cute little smile fool you. He changes from the hours of 12pm-6am :) I am worried he is still having some major acid reflux while he sleeps. This is a morning where we were up at four this morning, so sorry if this makes NO sense! What do I do with this one?
Then there is this little devil (again not literally). He really is the sweetest kid and I love the relationship he is developing with Zack. I love that I have someone to talk to all day. And I love his laugh when he gets so excited! He is super cute. However, he has so much energy I don't know what I would do if the weather was not AMAZING at this time of year. Today for example, we did not do our usually walk and play at the park for an hour or two in the morning. I could not get him to stop trying to wrestle with Zack. So I had to distract him by taking him....OUTSIDE! He does not take naps anymore...rarely. BOO!

I am totally not serious about my kids being devils, they are really the opposite. I am just humble enough to admit that being a parent sometimes is tiring! I could not ask for better kids and I cannot ask for a better life. I LOVE my kids and I LOVE our tiring days and I would never trade them for anything!!!!
