over a month later...here is MONSTER JAM as promised!

So before Anthony and Levi went, they went to Wendy's to eat...I think they both were so excited....Anthony left Levi's coat on!

The 2 of them!

This was taken after the show was almost over....I about killed Anthony for buying him cotton candy. But funny thing was..we let Levi eat a little the next day after his lunch, and he threw up. Poor kid.....he told me later that same day he was never going to eat that gross stuff again! WOOOOO-HOOOOO!!!

At the show....

The 4-wheelers

Grave-diggers on the end...one of Levi's favorites.

I think this is Air Force....Levi calls him Air Forest.

Happy kid

A lady shot out of the cannon ball

The show was really loud, and most of the other kids and even adults had headphones or ear plugs.....did you think Anthony and Levi did? Of course not! They had the time of their lives though...something neither one will forget!

Okay...I promise to do better at keeping up with my posts...especially since Colt just had his first birthday party in Ohio (and he will be turning 1 in a few weeks!)

Colt's First Haircut!

I know I am behind on my posts....but the weather has been gorgeous and we've played outside all day so the last thing I have worried about is blogging! But here are pictures of Colt's first hair cut. I thought it would be harder on me than it actually was. I have put my baby's 1st haircut (my last of another first) off for too long. I don't think I realized just how badly he needed a trim until looking back at his pictures now! Thanks to Aunt Jo for the fabulous job she did! What a blessing she is :)

As promised, I will get some photo's up soon of Levi's time with the Monster Trucks!

What a wild weekend!

So when I get a little more time I will post more and fill in about our weekend, but just real quick, on Saturday night Anthony and Levi went to Rupp to see MONSTER TRUCKS! They both had the time of their lives.....pictures to come. On Sunday night, Levi came down with some kind of nasty sickness. He got the flu shot this year, but I think he still had it. He's starting to feel a little better today. Thankfully Anthony was off work yesterday to help me out :) Here's some pictures of the boys in the tub from last week! They are WILD in the tub together!

On a "business" note, I have a freind right now doing a basket party....in just 3 days she has sold over $300....which right now gives her 30$ free in products and 2 half off items! And she still has a LOT of people lined up to place orders! I'm telling you all, this stuff is awesome stuff, so if you are wanting to do a party, just let me know!

MARCH 4th.

Today on the radio, I heard something about today being the only day that is a command in the Bible. It instantly caught my attention....do you get it? MARCH FORTH!

In the word, it says that we are a city on a hill, whose light cannot be hidden. Indeed as children of God, we ARE to march forth. I just thought it was cool! Here's the rest of my pictures from February! I'm slowly catching up!

Levi sweats like me....we just got done playing basketball I think and his head was soaked, so we spiked it up!

Again....on the oven hood!

HI MOM!

Cool guy!

Sunday's are always hard for Colt with church....on the way home he finally fell asleep as we pulled in the driveway! I put him in his crib and when I went to check on him a little later, this is how I found him!

This shirt was given to Levi by freinds of ours from Texas. When I got it out the other day, I realized just how fitting it is for COLT....we named him after Colt McCoy...the quarterback at Texas a few years ago! :)

Scentsy!

I figured I'd better get these pictures up here, because my next big shipment of Scentsy is arriving at my door tomorrow :) Okay, so here's what my table looked like for my big launch party! It was a huge success...I moved up in rank just from my launch party, which is not all that common to do!

So here was part of my launch party display :) I'm having too much fun can you tell?!

When the first big shipment came in....Levi was really excited to help me take everything out!

The only problem was that he wanted to open them ALL to smell ALL of them! :)

So he helped me lay all the bars out and he took inventory! :)

Then we played "stack the blocks" with the plug-ins.

Colt getting in on the action too!

Scentsy- a true family experience!

So by hosting a "basket party" my freind Tracy was able to get all of this stuff for just $16....it's retail value is $65!!! Good deal huh? I can do out of town and out of state basket parties...it's easy...my cousin Lisa in Ohio is doing one right now and she too will get all the rewards :) It's a win/win situation! Contact me if you would like to do one!

Here's a sneak peak at the March warmer of the month. "Dotty" is on sale for the month of March for $27. The scent of the month is Jumpin Jelly Beans which is discounted this month too! :)

Well, time to get off of here....hopefully by tomorrow my next shipment will arrive! It's like Christmas morning every time the UPS man makes a delivery to our house!

I also signed up my first recruit yesterday...it was totally a God thing and I will share the story when I get the time....for now, Levi's show is over so it's time for baths and board games, stories and bed!

Levi

Allright....so an update about my oldest child...Levi, Levi Levi.....he thinks he is all grown up now. He's always been independent and wants to do everything by himself, but lately, he's taken it to a whole new level! He now goes pee all by himself....that is a huge blessing (before he would need help with pulling his pants down and that kind of thing. But it's also a bad thing in a way, because he also thinks he can wipe himself now if you know what I mean. I won't go into great detail....but lets just say that I pretty much have to sit outside the bathroom door when he's doing a #2! lol.

The other day I caught him in our bathroom "shaving" He had Anthony's real razor out, and had toothpaste all over his face!! I asked him what he was doing, and he said, "LOOK, Im shaving just like daddy!" It was hard to get upset with him (actually I didn't) but I had to have a reaction to scare him a little...he shouldnt be playing with a real razor you know? But it was easy...all I had to do was show him his face in the mirror...he had slightly cut his lip so seeing the blood FREAKED him out!!!! I was thankful to God that it was only a minor cut..but a big enough one to scare him!

Speaking of cutting....long story short....I got a new winter coat this year for Christmas with a gift card from Kohls. It's a really nice one to say the least. Well, one day a few weeks ago Levi decided to get his scissors out and start cutting stuff....yes, including my new coat!! I was SO ANGRY at him at first. When I calmed down, I realized the cut was in a place that you would never notice and that it was really small. Still...again, I had to have a reaction to scare him...it was my coat this time...but next time it could be Colt's hair or worse! He got in big trouble for that....I won't go into those details!

Okay...so let's get to something positive about Levi! haha! He is growing up....he can now spell his name and about half of the time he can spell Colt's name too. He's wanting to learn how to write it now. I can't figure out if he's gonna be left handed or not. He usually picks his left hand to write with at first.....GREAT! Thanks Grandma Gheen!!! He can also find the letters (the magnetic kind we have on the fridge) and put the letters in the correct order to spell his name!

He is working on learning the National Anthem...he's got some of the parts down part....especially the line that goes..."And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air" only, in his version of the song, he adds, "BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM" right after that part!

Levi's got a such a thirst for life and for knowledge. Just last night we read a book about Jesus and it showed a picture of Jesus on the cross. He wanted to know ALL about it. I pray that the words that come out of my mouth are ones that will one day lead Levi to accepting Jesus into his heart! Also, just tonight Levi has learned to draw a "real person" picture. In the shower tonight, he drew a real face..with eyes, nose, mouth and hair....all in the right places! lol :)

Okay, so here's some pictures.....

What Anthony gets to wake up to in the morning....the boys like to get in bed with him!

Levi and Colt are really starting to play better together!

Levi feeding Colt. It's entertainment for both of them!

Flying through the air!

Stay tuned for some fun pictures of my Scentsy business....and the boys helping me!

Colt

Colt always tries to get ahold of our cell phones. When we got our new iphones last week, we finally let him grab hold of one of our old ones...he was in Heaven!

Can I call Grandma please?

No, I'd rather just eat it!

Speaking of eating, Colt is pretty much eating real foods now!! It's sad to think his days of all baby food are over! Here he is getting his first taste of a saltine cracker.

It's pretty good!

Let's cram it in with both hands!

Okay, so I know I've been awful with updating lately...here's the low-down. Colt has 2 bottom teeth, a top front tooth and he's currently working on the other top one. Like I said before, he's mostly on "big foods" now...including pears, peaches, green beans, peas and carrots. His favorite thing are those yogurt melts made by Gerber. Only problem is that Levi is in love with them too...and those boogers are rather expensive, so I've had to start hiding them! haha! Colt is cruising a little, but yet to take a first step. He can stand for a few seconds on his own before falling over. He really likes to push cars. His favorite is Levi's police car. It's cute to watch him push it all around the house. I think to myself everyday that he's not old enough to be doing things like that, but then I realize he is almost 10 months old! He is also developing an attitude. Especially when you take something away from him. Like our cell phones, he tries so hard to get ahold of the tv remote. I swear he can smell that thing 50 feet away! Just when he's close enough to grab it, I'll catch him and take it away and he throws a holy fit! He also wants to get into everything that Levi is into. Which frustrates Levi at times..it's sometimes humerous to watch the 2 interact....sometimes not so much. The other day, Levi pushed Colt int he laundry basket all around the house. They pretended to be lightning mcqueen :) Colt's still saying DA-DA, and he's starting to say BU-BU....other than that, he's not real talkative...unless you count the high pitch eagle screams or the raspberries! He knows how to clap and he knows how to sign "more" He's working on how to do a "touchdown".

Okay...so this post was mostly about Colt...my next one will be an update about Levi :)
