Amazing Motherhood

I have decided that I am truly the luckiest person on earth. I have the most wonderful three little boys! Thomas is the happiest, little ball of fun—even though he is ornery as all heck. His new thing is to give me a big hug in which he clinches me with all his might, and he has perfected this move to get himself out of trouble. Today I put him in time-out and every time I would try to talk to him about what he did wrong, he would reach at me and give me a giant hug. He also is still climbing everything and has figured out that if he stacks his step stool on top of his little picnic table, then he can easily get on top of our counters! What a dare devil!

Lucas is becoming less timid and more outgoing. He has this little alphabet bear that his Great Grandma Jan gave to Kevin a couple of years ago that he just loves. It has become his new routine to wake up each morning, grab his little bear out of the toy box and then push the bear’s hand to play the alphabet. He does his little dance and smiles from ear to ear. Lucas is so proud of his little accomplishments in life! He has even started picking on his two brothers! But he still retains his sweet and innocent disposition.

Kevin, of course, keeps me giggling daily. He is unpredictable and his little brain absorbs every little thing around him. He has really become fond of teasing people. He is going fishing with Cortney and Aaron Smith this Friday and he cracks me up because he keeps saying, “Mom, Aaron is going to catch a pink fishy.” Then he giggles and giggles, thinking he is just so funny. He also is so sweet. Each morning we go into his brother’s room and get them up for the day. Kevin sweetly tells them good morning and that he loves them. Then as I am changing one, he entertains and plays with the remaining twin in the crib.

Messy, little Lucas--eating lunch...yum, yum!

Happy Thomas, he looks like he's about to go to sleep right? This is about an hour after his bedtime too!
