Unfortunately it seems like when the momma, and the dadda, are at the end of their energy...something else happens.
That something else happens to be...
*Skyler broke daddy's camera...the nice one used for daddy's photography...
*Stomach flu... (Stephen and Skyler)...yes, this reminds me a lot of last Christmas, and cleaning carpets the week before quests all showed up for Christmas eve.
*Daddy spilled gas/oil mix all over himself at work, 1/2 my house smells like gas fumes, the other 1/2 smells like puke.
*Skyler's diarrhea is back...oh joy!
*Cody has decided that sleeping isn't so fun anymore. And would like 150% attention, and snuggle time.
*My mother-in-law's car was hit and run at our house while she was babysitting our kids Saturday night.
Well, that is our week so far...we will see how tomorrow goes...
Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Kids, Fun, Poop, and Dr Visits
Wow, what a week we have had!
First, I would like to say I think I have the most insane pile of boys ever assembled. That would be Stephen, Skyler and Cody.
I think that the Pediatric clinic should just give me a job, I am there so often.
Stephen- he is a lot of help around the house, really... but he also won't just let Sky have all the fun. if Sky is making a mess, by all means he must join in. (As long as Sky was doing it first it saves him from being in trouble...right?) "But Skyler was doing it first!" Is something I hear a lot of. Stephen is the type of kid that when he is sent to his room for time out-he sometime cleans his room, makes his bed, and when he comes out he is proud of what he accomplished without me asking and wants me to come see his clean room. Or he comes out demanding that I apologize for sending him to time out. (*Cough...me? Sorry?, I don't think so.) He loves to help me out a lot. He loves taking care of Cody, and Skyler. He loves hugs and kisses. He really is a sweetie. He is very smart, he loves the ABC's, counting, shapes and colors. He claims that his job is teaching Sky and Cody to talk, and to teach Cody to walk.
Skyler- He has had a cold for a few weeks now... and last week we took him to the doctor for a bit of pink eye. (It seriously looked like a black eye, it was so swollen shut.) We have him well recovered from that, with no one else in the family getting it. (Stephen and Skyler cleaned my house with antibacterial wipes.) Now, Skyler loves to remove his clothes. He has also learned that when his diaper is wet, or stinky, it is uncomfortable so he takes it off. Unfortunately the last few nights his pj's and diaper have disappeared and he has wet his bed before I can get in there and get him dressed again before I go to bed. And unfortunately we have had poop spread everywhere. (Stephen was very concerned, I had to tell Stephen about his poop messes to help him understand that he did this type of thing too.)
Cody- he has had a bit of colic at night, then to make matters worse, immunizations yesterday. Even the slightest touch to his poor little legs send him into a screaming frenzy.) I can't believe he is 2 months old already. Oh, and can you believe it, he is 10 pounds 11 ounces. That puts him in the 75% for weight, and he is 90% for height. (He is getting so chubby and cute.) Cody also has had a cold that mostly was effecting his eyes, so we took him to the doctor for that last week as well.
At any rate, Cody finally slept for about 6 1/2 hours last night!!!) Yawn, why do I still feel so tired? And where has my voice gone? Yep, the cold has accepted me as it's next victim. Alright, I guess I better go clean my house while 2/3 of my cute guys are sleeping.

Halloween Fun!
The boys and I were all pirates (Stephen chose what we would all be for Halloween.) Daddy was Death as always, but he did go to work as a pirate. (Now, the moment Jill has been awaiting is now here)...introducing the big pile of Priates!!!
Now for...Pirates in Action!!!
Skyler Trick or treating with Uncle Mike
Stephen Trick or Treating with Lindsey
and Cody having a nice nap.
Pirate brothers...How cute.
Daddy Pirate...ooohhhh, nice!
That is Momma Pirate and the boys...imagine, for just a moment...photoshopping Daddy pirate in to our picture. I tried, it was a decent attempt, but I will have daddy do it, he is much better at it than me. (Look for that one in an up coming post.)
Our big pile of pumpkins...too bad our lights went out, and we didn't get a picture of them all lit up.
Tons of Pictures
I must say, we got some cute pictures this last month or so...soooo, I will share some. (Yes Jill, the long awaited pictures of Halloween will be posted today too.) We did so many things, and, yes, finally got the batteries in our camera recharged for another go at pictures. Yippie!!!
While Grandma Zaugg was visiting us while Cody was in the hospital, she cut Skyler's hair.
Skyler's First Hair Cut... Such cute curly hair, I was in love with it...but he is 2 now, so the curls had to go. And he instantly looked all grown up. Apparently he thought he was grown up enough to shave.
Skyler's first time shaving. Stephen gets a hair cut too.
Cute hair cut by the way guys... you both are handsome!
Stephen likes to shave too.
We went to Grandpa and Grandma's house for a corn party. We had a lot of fun!
Stephen carefully shucks the corn...worried about a little thing called worms.
Skyler likes to help too. He was running the corn to the cooler, what big helpers these boys are.
We love Halloween, we love pumpkins, we love costumes, we love trick or treating too.
We got to choose pumpkins at Aunt Laura's house. So fun! (Especially playing with cousins at the same time.)
We enjoyed carving pumpkins at our house and at Aunt Laura's house. Pumpkin guts are soooo fun. Stephen at least enjoyed them, Skyler would poke them, but not so interested in much else.
