This afternoon Archer decided to take an extra long nap, so guess what I am doing? I'm making my blog snazzy! It is gonna be SUPER cute when I'm said and done, but who knows when said and done will be, so stay tuned!
BTW: I'm sure my family, aka: the boys, would not appreciate the pink header, but a girls gotta have her pink somewhere! Agree?!
Gotta run...he is up, Archer! ...3 1/2 hours later, which he is a regular 2 hours on the DOT not a minute earlier or later napper.
Oh dear he is NOW crying because he found a lolli pop wrapper on the floor and is upset that I ate it! They are his...I don't think the extra 1 1/2 hour helped!

BTW: I got to view all of them online and they ROCK! I am going to have to get a bigger house, just so I can put all the pictures up in the hall, because I can't pick which one I love more than other, because I LOVE THEM ALL and they won't all fit in my hall!
Now if the postal system would just hurry up, so I can receive my CD (she already mailed it) with the images, so I can SHOW the WORLD my BLESSED family! Gosh- I just love my boys- the big one too!

you FOUND me!
Ashton has been cruising around Ashton way...backwards like a crab, rolling around the floor, getting up on his hands and knees and lunging his body forwards to make a forward move! He would rather be standing and is happier that way, so this leads me to believe that he will start walking soon just like his big brother did! BTW: 2 days ago I was cleaning the kitchen while Andrew was bathing the boys and I hear TIFFANY come quick! What? COME! ...and to my surprise Ashton had pulled himself up onto the bath tub and him and Archer were busy laughing at each other! Pure JOY and I just can't believe how quickly things change with these little boys! The next night I had made a little area for Ashton to play on the floor with a blanket and his toys while I was finishing dinner and I walk back into the living room and couldn't find him...umm I thought surely he is not crawling fast enough to go to his room! Archer were did your brother go? I don't know was his reply! Silence drew and I was quite confused and beginning to get concerned when I heard a thump and this is what I found...
...Ashton underneath the coffee table!

sandman
I'm now facing the idea of boys, Archer, having fun at a birthday party...
Andrew and Ashton hanging out on the playground- oh boy oh boy does Ashton want to get down and RUN with his big brother...
and this is how Archer was enjoying the swing- he is getting SO big I just can't believe it and SO full of life- what a JOY and blessing to watch him! He is SO happy and SO INDEPENDENT!
...can you see the sand on his little face and hands- well if you can't let me tell you he was covered from head to TOE! Leaving this party was not quite the fun part- he was a little upset that we were having to go and getting him in the car was another story- arms were flying and sand was too from the shorts, shoes, and hat! Needless to say we had a great time and there is still sand in my car from last weekend! AHH! Car wash I'll get there soon, because it is driving me crazy and Archer likes to pick it up each time he climbs out of the car, so it is still a "toy" that is grinding at me!
ps- Ashton crashed out in the car- he didn't throw a fit leaving, but doesn't he look angry?

tutu cute
A dear friend of mine informed us at a baby shower that her daughters bows are all in a basket and it is hard to find them when in a rush- oh dear I thought, so my brain was a moving and a thinking because her daughters birthday party was that following weekend!
I'll just cut to the chase and show ya what I ended up doing for her...
This is the top, which is made out of wood that Andrew cut out for me with his router and I painted it and then made a "flower" out of tulle and ribbon for an adornment on top!
The bottom I sewed a tutu with ribbon attached as a little "belt" and hanging pieces for plenty of room for bows to hang and clip to! Of course I had to have a fluffy tutu, because it's tutu cute!
A look at the finish product! designed and made by me for Miss Sarah Hearn, whom Archer or Ashton is going to marry per Laura Hearn and I'm good with that!
After I finished with it and got some great reviews I've been lead to make more for gifts, so of course each one is going to be created individually and differently- so many more ideas to add to them! If you are wanting to commission one- just email me smiletiff@hotmail.com and I'd love to do it for a pal!

MY micah!
Every other Wednesday some of my FABulous friends get together and just hang out and let the kids be just kids, which can be peaceful and then STRESSFUL when you've got BOYS! Archer and his friend, Micah, are just a day apart in birthdays, but not one step apart when playing together, which equals TROUBLE in an equation! So this past week we went to Jake's house, he is about 5 months old, so no need for child proofing yet, therefore that means REAL fun for two- 2 year old BOYS! Let me just cut to the point of this- they found gun shells, bounced on beds, hided in curtains, and unmade Cindy's bed and were pretending to watch Veggie Tales on the alarm clocks and then "took" their naps while giggling! I don't think Ally, Micah's mom, and I set down once and if we did it was only to get up!
It got really quiet, which is not a good sign in their case...the picture says it all!
Archer and Micah or as Archer says MY MICAH!
Don't question a two year old?
This picture will be worth a million times of blackmail! Can't wait...
Archer ready to go to MDO- we found this shirt that said kickin it in pre-school, which he thought was too cool! I think with his hair fixed it adds another foot to him! I know its time for a hair cut, but I'm not sure what to do with it these days!
MDO-Archer thought he was going to see Micah since we were going to the church, but needless to say I had to tell my big man that he was not going to have MDO with Micah! Goodness I don't think he liked what I said, because he asked me over and over where is Micah (I lost count!). So I discussed this issue with Micah's Mom and she said in the spring he would go there, but was going somewhere else for the fall!
I explained to her that it was VERY important, because having Micah there would make our mornings easier in getting ready if Archer knew he was going to see Micah, PLUS when they get older and are in each others weddings they can tell the silly stories of MDO and their Moms, which they will still LOVE to pieces! I'm sure of that!
