Lately...

My kids are buddies (most of the time). When Carter's at school Nolan is constantly asking if we could go pick up Carter at school. Lately they have had the best time looking at books together. Carter pretends he can read all the books to Nolan and Nolan just LOVES to be read to. It's too cute!





And you know what? I don't care what people say about California (and sometimes what I think about California). It has been a beautiful winter and I never want it to end. It's been warm and sunny and we've been enjoying oranges, tangerines, lemons, and grapefruit to our little heart's content. Mmmm....





The kids spend at least an hour on their bikes pretty much every day. I've been trying to teach Carter to ride without training wheels a bit at a time, but it's been.....a bit of a challenge, to say the very least. (and yes, Nolan's suckin on a "postical" here. Gotta get rid of them before summer!)

Breakfast is not only the most important meal of the day, but I'm pretty sure it's my favorite. I love breakfast. Oatmeal, steel-cut oats, veggie omlet, french toast, bacon, cream of wheat, oranges...seriously, there's such a variety that I could eat breakfast 3 times a day. My kids love bagels, bacon, eggs, grits, and oranges. (not all at once, however. I'm not that crazy)

And finally, Carter's tooth is hanging on by a thread. It kinda grosses me out. And he won't let me pull it out. Really, it like leans out toward me and i can almost see it flapping in the wind. Eew. Why am i more excited about him losing a tooth than him?? (btw, I couldn't get him to make a better face than this, his large-mouthed-bass face. Trust me, I tried.)

p.s. I bought those red shoes I wanted. I love them.
