March Madness!!!

I know I know, I am way behind, but I am determined to catch up!!

Ayden had his first haircut. We figured it was about time. He still had his bald spot in the back that needed to catch up with the rest of his long hair, it was a sad day, but needed to be done.


Ok so this is a Before picture of Ayden's hair, and the other one is just funny to me, and so true. This is Gavin sitting on the couch holding Ava like he always wants to do, and busy Ayden finding something to climb on (it's our cat tree thing)



This is also the before picture and then the as I started cutting picture. I used the scissors the whole time and we didn't hear one complaint from Ayden, that is why the clippers never came out, but because his hair is so curly it's just to hard to get it cut short and compeltly even with out the clippers, so a few weeks later the clippers came out and tears came! But he was really cute and happy with his sucker...



... Unlike Gavin who was freaking out about all the hair that was falling on the floor. He is my funny kid who has a hard time when anything gets on his fingers and is grossed out by anything. He does have his moments when he surprises me though.



Now it is pictures like these that make me want to keep trying to catch up to June (almost July) even though I am so behind....This is Ayden checking him self out after his hair cut...

Right now he is getting a good look...



Yep, I think he likes it...


Success, there is the look of a boy who knows he is handsome!!!



Our three sweet babies


The boys getting outside while it's in the process of warming up. and Ayden as always, the one who likes to push and pull everything, "pushing" and learning to pull the wagon forward with Gavin enjoying the ride.






A typical day outside...
Ayden giving Gavin a stick.....Gavin running with the stick....


...And now Gavin chasing Ayden with the stick.


Ava learing to use her Bumbo



Ava's many sweet faces









Reading with our boys











And the all famous "reading the book upside down" picture I am sure most people have taken of their kids


The boys trying out their new potties




The boys finding joy in not feeling trapped in their high chairs


Gavin sharing his apple with Ayden, I think it is so cute when they share.

The boys eating tomato soup and with their grilled cheese sandwhiches for the first time

BEFORE

AFTER

And our attempt to got out to Mcdonald's for some ice cream for our "Family hoome evening" night


The boys "coloring" in their first coloring books



This is Gavin given Ayden "loves". It is really funny, when Ayden is being mean to Gavin I tell him to go say sorry and give Gavin loves, and Ayden just stands there and Gavin is the when that will come up to Ayden to love him even though Ayden is the one who is supposed to be saying sorry. In the second picture it's pretty typical, Gavin loving Ayden and Ayden protecting his toys.


The boys love this window, and do ALOT of "window watching" from it. Jordan took these of them watching a squirl run around out front.


The boys loving and helping Ava



This is the typical Ayden and why Ava so terrified of Ayden...


But these days this has been more common, he really does love his sister





Jordan seems to have a problem with this, but I think it's funny. The boys see all these bows in her hair and want one it there's as well. I always tell then "Aww so cute, go look in the mirror" whenever they put something like this on and they go running to the mirror, I thin it's pretty funny.


Our Christmas gift to each other finally arrived, I have loved this picture forever so I was excited when we finally got it
