15 month babes

a few pictures from yesterday... i couldn't find shirts that were the same, but different (same pattern, different colors), so they matched... but seriously, how cute.  i keep going back and forth between needing to cut liam's mullet and not wanting to get rid of his curls...  i'm so torn!  finn's hair isn't as long, and it's curlier, so i don't have this problem with his yet.  we finally got around to baby-proofing the whole ground floor, so the last couple pictures are of them enjoying their new favorite activity... taking everything out of their drawer in the kitchen and banging, banging, banging!  their germo-phobie daddy has a tiny issue with this, but it keeps them occupied so i don't really care.

i like

i actually LOVE this.. so freaking cute.  you all know i have a slight, though serious obsession with birds/owls/etc... so it doesn't get much better than this, made by marian of sweetopia, posted by bake at 350.  now if i could only curb the baking blog obsession...

a splurge

because i have two babies, i don't very often get to splurge on clothes.  good thing i don't have two girls! it would be all over... however, i've been eyeing this romper at boden for awhile now.  i have a good friend, who will remain unnamed, who just furnished her boys' whole summer wardrobe from this catalog.  although i doubt she thinks it's their whole wardrobe.  she showed it all to me, and i couldn't resist coming home and buying these ADORABLE rompers for the guys.  i don't usually match them, and i don't usually go anywhere but old navy/sometimes gap on sale for their clothes... just got them in the mail today, and i'm in love.

i like

these new juice glasses from crate and barrel.  only 2.95 each! which you can see at the bottom of the picture, because i didn't want to to take the time to crop it! incorporating letters into my morning OJ is so my style.  and i don't really have style.

another new header

i have to admit, i didn't do this by myself.  but i got tired of looking at the "stick people" i drew.  plus, i didn't want to add hair to the babies, which they obviously have now.  i got this idea from elise, of enJOY it.  i love the idea of having the pictures in the header be a representation of what i put on this blog.  i put together the mosaic at bighugelabs.com, downloaded it, added the text in photoshop, and voila!  i think once i have a bit more time, i'll add more pictures...  in other words, you'll be able to enjoy it for awhile.

yoda

he seems to be making his way into a few of our pictures...  creepy. and sooo cute.  oh, and check out these blond curls!  so so grateful to have a husband with a full head of beautiful, curly hair that has been passed down to our babes...

we turn our backs for two seconds...

and these boys have made it over to the gate, demanding their release from the basement, which is turning into more of a jail as they get curiouser and curiouser.  don't worry, i don't think that's a real word.  my grandma came over the other day, and couldn't get over how adorable they were as she came around the corner.  she told me she'd love to have a picture of it, and knowing i hadn't missed the opportunity, snapped these the next time they landed there.  seriously. so cute.
