Sweetest Thing

Never you mind about the Cheeto lips in the following pictures.  

I had just finished up feeding lunch to the kids on a Sunday, but chilly spring break day, and as I was lading the dishes, I heard excessive giggling.  I mean, truly EXCESSIVE laughter.  It was infectious.  I had to see what was up WITHOUT disrupting it.

And to photography it?

Well, I put on my spy cape, with invisibility capabilities, and grabbed the camera.

And I caught this.

There were a few moments, where I think they saw through my super cape.

 Rocking back and forth and just being straight up silly, I found Landon, with Brooklyn on his lap, rocking back and forth in the banana chair.

They were being incredibly silly.  I wish I could have video taped it.

Brooklyn has this little game where we say, "chin to chin" or "nose to nose" and she touches her chin to your chin or her nose to yours.  It's cute.  She usually does lips to lips, too.  It started at church, one day when I said, "back to back" which is code for:

Get your bum on the bench
and your back
on the back  
of the pew 
or SO HELP ME...

Anyway, she picked up on that....back to back and turned it into a game...

And that is just what these two were doing.
But it was sweeter.  And much funnier.

And I thought back to when Brooklyn first came home from the Hospital.  And how Landon has always taken to her like a duck to water.  They have a little bond that I just don't understand, but I love.

It was a precious moment in my house, and I am glad beyond measure for the camera I own that captured their smiles, dimples, and laughter.  Sure you can't hear it, but if you turn off all the noise around you, and look close, you can hear it.

Try it.

I swear it works.




It's the best, huh.

Told you.

The Opposite of Christmas Morning

We are having the opposite of Christmas morning at our house.  No toys.  We have one of these for storing toys: And several of these for the same reason: And last night the kids thought dumping them out for the sake of dumping toys would be fun.  This is a major rule breaker in our home.  I have had problems with this in the past, (even Mykalee knows this) and i have told them if it happens again, all the toys will disappear. And last night, after I found out what they had done, the toys have been grounded.  FOR A WEEK.  I hope it's as devastating as possible, so that they will learn I am serious when it comes to dumping toys out. {Also, Brooklyn is the only one who is exempt from this, as she was in bed.  Innocent.} On a side note, we did get the kids this on Friday.  It was time.  They seem to love it.

Breaking News: Brooklyn

Nothing like getting a sharp poke in the ear. Especially when you're two and an half and ASK for it. When Brooklyn was a baby I went to have her ears done, but decided to hold off, since her one ear lobe was so tiny, and her ears were very different in size. So I waited. For her to grow into her ears. And to grow some hair. Still waiting on the hair part, so earrings seemed like a great idea. She asked for them, and since we both wanted them, we went and got them. She picked out a pair, and viola, it was done. She said, "Owwwww!" once, and then laughed when the lady gave her a sucker and began modeling for me and Kyle.  All to show off her new earrings! Yup, seriously, she loves them.  It's pretty stinking cute.  She is constantly telling me, each time we clean and rotate them, "Mom, never take them out, 'kay?" Okay. Deal. And I did mention that we are waiting on some hair, but some is sprouting. So we're hopeful! See, she...
