Update, schmupdate...

Keenie Beanie during his afternoon nap. Seriously, this is how he sleeps.

Mavi in his big boy bed with a snake book. And we wonder why he has nightmares!

Keenie, Mavi, and Diego building a fence with little people toys and hiding out in the teepee my Grandma Rosie bought for me when I was little. My mom brought it out here a couple months ago and these boys can't get enough of it.

Mavi with a rattlesnake at the museum.

Well, I haven't been the best photo take these past few weeks. Actually the camera has been sitting on the computer desk, instead of seeing action. I went to a bachelorette party weekend in Aspen last weekend and I missed my boys (and my girl sasha) like crazy. Let me just say that, again, vodka had the best of me and monday was a LONG day.

Mavi is enjoying preschool (somewhat) and is still adjusting to having me away from him for a whole two hours. He plays for a while. Than cries for me. Than plays, than cries- I think you get the picture. Keenan, on the other hand, throws hysterical fits when it's time for us to leave, so I've got both of them freaking out. It's a lot of fun. Sometimes I think I should just leave Keenan there and take Mavi with me.

Mavi has a new favorite book. How do dinosaurs eat their food? He sits and reads it to Keenie fairly accurately. The funniest part is when a dino "eats juicy oranges" Mavi says he eats "orangey juices". Too cute! Keenan is talking a ton. He repeats everything we say- no curse words yet, I think we learned that lesson. He loves to watch Monsters, Inc and asks for "monter-k" all the time. They both love, love, love being outside and the weather has been perfect.

Thanks for checking in and hopefully we will have more pics soon.

A little sampling of cuteness...

Mavi on his first day of school.

Keenan looks so thrilled. Poor guy, I swear he does smile. You'll see.

I need to rotate this, but here's Mav with his grandpa pants on.

Beanie cleaning the pool at Ben's birthday party.

Happy Birthday Ben!

Grrr.

See, here's a smile.

This tired little man fell asleep on top of the Elmo chair. Just couldn't make it until nap time.

WE LOVE CUPCAKES!

Gotta love naked painting.

I'm wondering if tattoos are in Mavi's future.

We have decided to save money by using wipes packages as hats. Just doing our part to "go green"!

First day of school! First day of school!

Well, I have some amazing pictures to post, but I am not that computer savvy at 6 am, so you will all just have to wait until naptime or something. BUT, that said, Mavi had his first day of preschool yesterday. Keenan and I actually got to stay with him, and it was only for an hour- graduated entry- but he loves it! His preschool is a parent co-op which means that there are 3 teachers and 2 parent helpers there every class time. It is a very laid back school, his one teacher is such a hippie, and that's exactly what we were looking for. The kids can basically do whatever they want- paint, color, read books, play outside, climb on the jungle gym. It's awesome so far. Then Keenan had his 18 month appointment yesterday afternoon. He is 23 1/2 pounds and 32 inches tall. He is also at 2 year old level for gross motor, communication, and fine motor skills. Not bragging, cuz he's also ahead in having huge tantrum skills as well. At least he was an "angel" at the dr.'s office. He sure can turn it on for the people he loves. Mavi was a little worried when Keenan got his "pokes" but we went and bought a cake (the bakery was out of cupcakes, how does THAT happen???) and all was calm once again. Anyway, pics soon.
