So when I said I'd be back for a blog post tomorrow...I really meant in a week...because, well, I have two toddlers and that's just the way life goes! You know those photo challenges you always see on Pinterest? Well, they always seem like a good idea and I even tried to do one on this blog a couple years ago. I got distracted about half way through the month and never finished. This morning I saw one about kids...and I thought to myself...if I just follow my two yahoos around all day I'm sure I can get ALL 31 of these done in one day...which would greatly help with my attention span problem!! So here we go...the 31 day photo challenge in one crazy, two toddler, run around day! #1- Hands. They were watching Charlotte's Web (we now watch that pig movie atleast once a day...Buggy has some serious piggy love!) and I looked down and saw this. Pretty darn cute. (I apologize in advance...my children are mostly naked in all of these pictures...it's 100 degrees here today and we're all melting!) #2- Silly. The girls love to play peek-a-boo with the curtains in Havyn's room. They think they're quite silly! #3- Friend. Our girls really are the best of friends...most the time. Come on now, they are siblings and they are one and two! :) #4- Happy. My dear friend Kristina just got back from Disneyland. She came over lastnight and brought the girls some goodies (and I got a fantastic little Nemo ornament)! They are both PRETTY DARN happy about Goofy today!! :) #5- Pretend. Both the girls are pretty stupendous pretenders. I look at them and wish that we didn't lose the whimsy side of life as we got older. Em is talking to Grandma on her play phone...and having a very in depth conversation! #6- Snack. Bugster loves her some crackers...I mean who doesn't?! You can see the remnants of her afternoon cracker snack on her sweet little face! #7- Pajamas. My girls have pajamas. Lots of pajamas. Really cute pajamas. But when it's 100 degrees outside and cools off to 80 at night...this is what pajamas look like...and they're quite happy about that! :) #8- Posing. Ahhh the kissy face. Yes, this is Em's favorite pose! I'd bet money on the fact that she ever had an alter ego or became a character in some awesome comic book, her name would be Emersyn "Kissy Face" Mathes. The girl loves to pose! #9- Moving. This is them spinning. They do it all the time. It makes my heart happy. #10- Sibling. Because everyone needs someone who's willing to get dirty with them! #11- Sleeping. This came after the moving and pretending and silliness...and it lasted about twenty minutes! :) #12- Meal. Breakfast is a favorite in our house. I mean, who doesn't get pumped about their Cheerios?! #13- Relaxed. Ahhh...this is the life! #14- Helping. Buggy loves to help Emersyn wash her hair. Em doesn't mind so long as the water stays OUT of her eyes!! #15- Creating. The girls are totally head over heels for anything that helps them draw! We have a few little magnetic doodle pad things and they make lots of masterpieces on them every day! #16- Outing. Ok...so I cheated on this one a little. Going to the neighbor's to look at their chickens isn't exactly an outing BUT in my defense it is WAY TOO HOT for me to have ANY motivation to stick a one year old and a two year old in their HOT carseats!! #17- Eyes. The girls are starting to learn that Mommy has eyes in the back of her head. I guess they do to sometimes! #18- Dirty. The dirtier the better...right?! #19- Loving. When Bug falls asleep she likes to have some part of her body touching some part of mine. Heart tank full. #20- Water. Havyn LOVES the water and LOVES to play with the hose even more! Her new favorite thing is spraying her sister as she runs around the yard! :) #21- Family. I chose this picture for family because it's the view I have every time I walk in my front door. Two people fell in love and fall more in love with eachother every day and now they have this awesome little family because of it and that is pretty amazing! #22- Sunday. This one is kind of dorky because, well, it's not Sunday. So, I turned it into sun day. It's a pretty crazy sunny day here...so here ya go! #23- Outside. For about 20 minutes. Because it feels like you're on the surface of the sun. And no amount of sunscreen can make that go away. #24- Play. Play, play, play, play, play, play, play. Playing is learning, and we like learning, so we play a lot! #25- Learning. The girls are learning their ABC's. They're pretty smokin' at it too! This little phone sings them and it's become a favorite around here! I'm tellin' ya, learning is fun! :) #26- Feet. I have a small obsession with baby feet...especially my baby's feet! I could just eat them up. #27- Reading. We love books in this house...like really, really love books. They're probably on the list of the top 5 favorite things in the house (living creatures not included, of course)! #28- Favorite. Barney is Havyn's favorite. Hands down, no competition. (Again, living creatures not included) #29- Weather. Sunny, hot, perfect for making mud puddles. #30- Funny. Mommy is pretty funny. I'm living in a state of denial that there will come a time when Mommy is no longer quite so funny. Mommy will always be funny. ;) #31- Riding. Time spent riding Mater is never time wasted! So that is our 31 days in 1 day challenge!! We're super excited for the 4th...I can't wait to take the girls to the parade and fireworks...and to make it even better my mom is coming into town on Saturday for 10 DAYS!! It will be fabulous!! I hope you're all having a great week! Happy Tuesday! :)
