A day in the life....

Summer is going WAY too fast for me. The boys start school Aug.9th and I think that is way too soon. I love these lazy days with them. Marc has been SOOOOOOOOO busy at work lately we cant believe it. He is working past 8 most nights and we hate it for him. We both agree that the fact he is working and has such a great job in this economy is worth it though. I just hope he understands how much we appreciate him though.



We started our day at the Coinstar. For some reason the boys take extreme pleasure in this thing. They save up all their coins and about every two weeks they cash them in. It's a win win situation because I let them use the money for the junk they know I won't normally buy. Pretty much anything at the end of a cash register (candy, gum). LOL


We decided to go see the ducks at the park. We wanted to see if the little ones had gotten any bigger. I think this picture is funny because it TOTALLY describes the scene. Jimmy wants to run and play and Tommy is freaked that he might get dirty. I told him he needed to lighten up.



Jimmy wanted to go out onto this little spot and Tommy looked at me and said "You said we are going to the mall after this, don't let him get all dirty." To which I said "Chill buddy, he is wearing $2.00 shoes from Target that we can put under the faucet."






I wanted Tommy to show me what he liked for back to school clothes. He is definatley my shopper in the family. He is a lot like his daddy. I don't know how but the child LOVES and understands good quality clothing.

Practicing his third grade moves.






OK,OK,OK, call child services on me. Yes, I let Tommy eat Chinese and Jimmy eat a hot dog at the food court. No I do not want to know how many calories was in that but trust me they burned them off in Belk.






Don't forget the ice cream. I told Jimmy to share some with Tommy and he told me "No thank you, I probably shouldn't after everything else I have eaten." Well, how very wise of you. He is honestly becoming his father before my very eyes.


I forgot Tommy could read and he pointed this out to me. I actually had to walk in the store to take a picture of this little diddy. Heaven help me (her) if my son should ever come home with a girl wearing this shirt.
