New addition to the play room

We are currently trying to teach Etty her colors and thought that this new toy would help her on her way. We took her swimming pool from the summer and bought some play place balls from walmart to try and duplicate the fast food play place ball bin... which Im sure that most people know are uncommon now because they're pretty unsanitary. Anyways, she loves it and will separate by purple and yellow. As with all toddlers, her attention span is short and decides to instead roll in them or throw them all over the room, so at the same time as teaching her the colors she is also learning how to clean up.
On monday I had a big accounting test and I just thought it was funny to see my study area when I was about to put my books in my back pack. I love my kids to death, but studying is hard when Ettoile is coming in and out every other minute to bring me a toy. Britt says it's because Ettoile thinks I'm bored and wants to make sure I have some fun. So if you want you can play "I SPY..." See if you can find the little man from her dollhouse, a purple pom-pom, Wyatts green pacifier, a clean diaper, a used diaper, Wyatts doggy hat, a blue dog, and an orange my little pony. Also enjoy a pic of Wyatt at bath time.

And on his farm he had a...

Alright... picture overload time. I couldn't just pick a few to put up. I think the pictures can sum up our halloween better than I could write it. Note the pumpkin guts eating pictures... I tried to tell Ettoile that she wasn't going to like it but she tried it anyways... I like to call the second pumpkin eating picture the "Daddy, why did you let me eat that?" picture.

Already a month old...

Wyatt is already a month old... he's a maniac when he eats and has gained a lot of weight... so he's really starting to fill out. Britt says, "the fatter the better..." Ettoile gets cuter every day and is learning her colors... we aren't pushing the potty training much but we are getting her used to sitting on her potty... She gets 1 recees pieces every time she sits on it and sometimes she'll go and sometimes not... But her personality comes out more and more every day and she always makes us laugh. Enjoy some pics of 1 month old Wyatt and Ettoile. (Disclaimer on Ettoile and the bottle picture: Ettoile has not had a bottle since 10 months but she got a hold of Wyatt's and must have decided to try it for old times sake... needless to say, she spit formula all over herself and the floor. I just didnt want people thinking we still give our child a bottle after one year.)

Twins baby blessings...

My parents came out to the mid-west to help us out while Britt was recovering from her c-section and while they were out here we had a twin baby blessing outside at the Durnfords home. Jason and I have always done everything together; born together, bath time together (disclaimer: only for the first few years of life), school, etc. etc. So why not bless our new babies together. It was really nice and the experience was extremely nice to have it at home with just family. So here are some pics of the blessing... Preston and Ettoile had a great time together and decided the garden box was more fun than the blessing. We also wanted to say a great big public THANK YOU to Mom and Dad for coming out and helping us while Britt recovers. It means more than you will ever know!

McCain Rally

Britt and I went to the McCain Rally in La Crosse this morning. Baby Wyatt went along too since he is also an avid McCain supporter. Ettoile decided to go to daycare because she is leaning more towards Obama... as long as it's an educated decision than I guess I'm OK with her choice. Britt, as many know is a democrat but is leaning more towards McCain. I, as most know, am a declared republican since I most closely relate with the republican party and ideals but I am proud to say that I am a bi-partisan voter, voting for whomever I feel represents me as an american.

The other day when I had mentioned to a coworker that I was going to attend the rally today, her response was, "Oh... I'm sorry." My response was, "Oh... I don't apologize for making well educated and rational choices for me and my family." I hate ignorance and rude people. I am fine with whoever supports Obama, in fact I have great respect for the man. I'm sure that he would do great as the next president, but I think that McCain will do much better and lead our country to a better standing than Obama ever could. If you support Obama, good for you and I am happy for your choice, AS LONG AS you have made an educated one. BUT, if you really dont know what either stands for or the difference between the two platforms than shame on you for jumping on the trendy bandwagon. Anyways, I guess thats all I have to say about politics. Heres a few pics from the rally and a few more from the devilishly handsome young man...

Wyatt Jeffrey Luna



So here's some pics of Mommy's new man... There's one semi-graphic one of the c-section, I think it's beautiful but sorry to anyone that it makes a bit queasy and then a random one of Ettoile and her cousin Preston in the bathtub tonight.
