is what happens when your 3 year old must think you don't pay enough attention to his works of art.

This....

is what it looks like to actually enjoy eating pureed green beans.

is what Sawyer did to his Alvin (and the Chipmunks...doo doo doodoodoodoo...) toy.

dinner

ridge has been trying some veggie puffs....he likes em.  tonight, we had some more tilapia; it's weird bc it's the thing sawyer eats best  (it and salmon...go figure)....so we've been having a lot of fish.  last night, however, we made pizzas.  so here are some photos of our home cooked cuisine! it's sometimes more work to cook than to just order something- or all the time it's more work i guess- but eating together and cooking together is a good trade off.
the pizzas, of course, weren't very healthy....but tonight our dinner was!

for the pizza, i bought the crust that you just bake- no rolling, no mixing...it's just on the aisle with the pizza sauce...or maybe it's on the bread aisle at your store, i don't know.  we had canadian bacon, pepperoni, green pepper, olive, mushroom, and artichoke hearts (no win there, with ANY of us).  but the pizza itself was good! sawyer added a whole bag of cheese to his and brandon's pizza (right side)...mine, on the left, was sans cheese since i have to avoid mucho dairy until the ridger isn't dependent on me for food.

 

tonight, like i said, tilapia again.  we had baked tilapia with mango and avacado salsa....with whole wheat pasta in chicken broth, and some vegetable blend with broccoli, edamame (well, no, bc that's what it is called IN the shell, but i forget what it is called OUT of the shell), carrots, and water chesnuts.  and it was a hit!

toy story's here

sawyer loves toy story. disney had their pjs on sale 2 for $20 the other day, so i had to order him some...

ridge is a little creeper. :) the last photo here was the first one i  took. sawyer had to be touching ridge.  HAD TO.

the boys also had to spend some time together playing...here, in sawyer's room:

because outside, it was a winter wonderland...or something:

 

that icicle is close to 3 feet in length. i'm sure it's gone today, but man.  it was ginormous.  "you'll poke your eye out, you'll poke your eye out."

and of course, lotsa sleeping during these snow days/nights!

and  sitting...

 

and smiling

and....with daddy's help...but sometimes without....

STANDING:

  

and the little shuffling he did up and down the couch? that was without ANYONE's help.  well, except for God. you know...He helps a lot!

yeah. i have cute kids.  love love love.
