good times this week.

all three kids slept until almost 7 the other day. it was wonderful. it was also a mad rush to get to school without the extra 2 hours...

jack still has a lovey. three actually. he is usually snuggling one. or three. i will wean him off them before nursery school (in 11 months!). bottles too.

this proved  not very efficient, but needed a couple of items and had to burn thirty minutes before the gym. i also like that the employees here roll their eyes when i let the boys loose. yeah--take that!!

 many, many tears when it was time to park the carts.

 matt's half day usually involves a couple slices of his favorite pizza from old school and a chocolate milk. this week it was 50 out so we canceled our play date for an impromptu picnic and slow wander home through the woods. i might use the word "woods" loosely.

 then we watch the ducks and geese. maybe chase them a little.

and my little ducklings starting the trek home.

 after many, many rolls down the hill at town hall we headed home to play. it's a lot of fun pulling the little ones off the bunk bed. then off the shelf, then out of the sink, then repeat 900 times.

 matt and i smiled for the new camera...

 and made some funny faces...

and while jack decided to join our fun...

 ...ben destroyed the family room. seriously, it takes him 2 minutes to pull out and promptly ignore 100 toys.

before scrub down these guys cry, "teeth! teeth!" and after. and during. may have something to do with the tasty kiddie tooth paste. will surprise them with cinnamon for the next tube.

all three still fit for now.

jack follows matty out and ben likes to linger.

ahhhh, alone for once.
