Why don't you sell this?

Ever get taste of your own medicine?

The last few weeks I've been going on a cleaning frenzy. I've been trying to tell Gavin that if he wants new toys he needs to choose some of the ones he doesn't play with so we can sell them. (He has no desire to sell anything except for the ridiculous amount of happy meal toys he has which we all know that every family doesn't want either!)

The other day Gavin was doing one of his chores. Arranging the shoes in the shoe closet. While going through the shoes Gavin found a pair of my flip flops I hadn't wore in a while to which he said...

"Hey mom! I haven't seen you wear these shoes in a while... maybe you should sell these? What do ya think about that?"

Wow... nothing like getting a taste of your own medicine!

Once a favorite toy... always a favorite toy

Gavin LOVED playing with this Fisher Price house. He used to make the door open and shut about a million times! I can't even begin to say how many games of peek a boo were played through that door. Well, last week we got it out of the attic and it has become a favorite toy of Megan's as well. I see alot of peek a boo games in my future!

Family Picture Time...

We went to get our family pictures done tonight and it was definitely stressful. Trying to get 4 people to look decent in a picture is easier said than done. Especially when 2 of those 4 are under the age of 5! Megan cried for most of it because she just wanted to play with my necklace! However, we did get some ok shots. I'll have to schedule her individual pictures at a later time. Family pictures were enough for tonight! Here is what we got!

Matt & Lauren

(possibly one of the best pictures we have had in a while!)

This Little Piggy...

I'm not sure whether Megan likes this toy or not! What I DO know is she will try to dance to any kind of music so it doesn't surprise me that she tried to dance while the pig was saying the nursery rhyme! This would make one think she liked the toy. Until she crawls over to it and holds its foot and won't let it kick it's feet up and down like it is suppose to do and then bites it's head! Wow! I'm gonna say she likes it though and these are just "love bites"! :)

A new way to take a bath!

Megan used to take a bath in this....

Until she got too big for the infant side and entirely too nosey for the toddler side!

Now she can be nosey AND take a bath.... because now she can take a bath in this....

Her new bath seat for the big bathtub that she LOVES!!

She was a little annoyed that her brother insisted on taking a bath with her the 1st time

But mommy told her she could play with all his toys and hers too!

And this made one happy Megan!!

Happy 4th of July!
