Wait Terrible Twos Already?

The last few weeks have been crazy. Austin has been on an absolute terror. He has managed to climb and or destroy every barrier in our house and yard. The temper tantrums are out of this world crazy and the whining wont stop....What has happened to my sweet baby boys.
Life is busy as usual and we have finally hit the 20 month mark. It is amazing to think we have managed to keep our children and marriage alive this long. Austin is definitely are more challenging little boy but he has so much love well...they both do. They are sweet to one another other then the occasional water or sand over the head. They do compete for my attention a lot. Jason has this laugh that lights you up even after the longest day of toddlers you cant help but laugh with him. I know more challenges lie ahead I just hope there is enough wine supply to carry me through :)
Next month will be a very busy one for us. Rob and I celebrate our most favorite holiday on the 4th and then our 7 year anniversary is on the 8th. Can you believe 7 years has gone by? I am so glad I am on this crazy journey with him I cant imagine a more supportive loving husband...or a better dad for my boys. After that my grandmama turns 80 and the whole family is coming to the lake house YIPPEE. Hurry up June be over! Well I have like 30 minutes until Jason wakes up from his nap and I need some vitamin D.

I am Baaaack!

Gosh it has been an eternity but I feel like my head is slowly rising from the sand. The boys are big and I mean really big. I thought Austy was ready to move out last year but this year I am sure he is going to be our Mr. Independent. Jason is a sweety. He melts your heart with his charm and his gorgeous baby blue eyes. Oh and this stay at home mom thing actually has its perks. I quit using make up except on special occasions and my uniform rocks as long as its clean. You can say that life at the Oliver house is going well.

We made it through a weekend with a mom visit and I got to have my Gall Bladder taken out. I can eat what I want now...well no grease..but jeez. The boys are napping in their cribs once every afternoon. We have the backyard basically set up to run a daycare but no you can't drop your kids off sorry...its a private care facility. I know my boys are spoiled.

Austin is trying to walk down stairs like a big boy. He loves rakes, brooms and the swiffer. I know what your thinking but they are to young to rent out :) He loves eating anything fruit and eating applesauce with his big boy spoon. He is a snuggler and doesn't miss an episode of Bubble Guppies...EVER!

Jason is sweet. He likes to be a little helper. He brings daddy's work boots to him every morning and puts them in the closet every night. He likes watching the garbage truck drive by the house every Tuesday. Jason likes eating almost anything but fruit ....he is my veggie man. This boy would rather eat a green bean than watermelon. He also loves the good stuff ie cookies, brownies, chips and dip. He has the sweet tooth of the bunch. Jason can climb anything and everything we really have to watch him :)

Like I said life around the Oliver house is good and entertaining. I promise to try keeping you informed better from here on out with what we are up to. Have a great week...off to lay by the pool...kiddie pool that is.
