Another milestone...out of the cribs

Earlier this week, I went into the boys' room to wake them up and to my surprise Joseph was sleeping with Jacob in Jacob's crib!

We knew it was time to move them to the "big boy" beds. I wanted to have their new room all decorated before they moved in, but instead Matt and I scrambled to put the beds together on Thursday night.

Here they are on Friday morning after their first night in the big beds. They did great!

Happy Boys - playing with stickers and bowls

Two Years Old

Joseph and Jacob are 2 years old today! And they are very much into letters and numbers. I hear them singing the ABC's all the time during the day.

Here they are playing with their foam letters and numbers...

They also love puzzles, puzzles and puzzles...

New Family Photos

We went to Sears this morning to get some family photos taken....here's a sneak peak of the photos.


As you can see, Joseph was having a bad hair day. Nothing would tame the mane...


And there were a lot of funny facial expressions (see Jacob on the left)....



But the boys did a great job and had some fun, as you can see we had to bring teddies along today.

It's 2009!

The big project for the last week (while I was in California) was the basement! Matt and our neighbor Jim has been feverishly framing in the basement and adding another room.

As Matt continues to work downstairs, the boys and I are just playing with toys!

Joseph loves his trucks....

And Jacob has been running around, dragging his bean bag....
