AdVeNtUrEs In PaReNtInG . . .

I love to be a Mom. It is the hardest thing I have ever done (or am doing?!) Someday I know I will think all of this is funny . . . until then I will let it humor you!

Excuse the fuzziness in the photo. Something is seriously wrong with my camera.

I have to learn that I cannot turn my back on this mischievous little guy for even a moment-- this was a few days ago when Preston pulled a kitchen chair to the counter, climbed up to the cupboard and retrieved the peanut butter. He unscrewed the lid and dug in. Hmmm. Okay I did that when I was a little tot too-- only I was in a highchair. Strapped in. Someone handed me the jar. And I loved every last drop. So I guess maybe I deserved this one-- it was pretty cute. And I still have to agree with him-- there are few things in the world as yummy as plain old peanut butter.

This one is sweeter than anything I ever dreamed possible. So too cute!!

A few stories about the photos in the post below: We enjoyed a long weekend with Burke this week and went to the park after running some errands. The kids had a great time hanging out with their Dad. I loved every minute of it too.

My sister Brit and her baby Anilyn brought us a festive 4th of July hairbow to celebrate the holiday. It was so fun to see our families for the 4th.

Preston is getting quite good with the mascara applicator (this just happened to be the day after he dumped my eye makeup remover all over the bathroom floor so good thing I had some tear free baby shampoo to get it off of him!!)

Preston fell asleep in the windowsill of his room after destroying his room while he was having "quiet time". He is pretty goofy sometimes!
