A small way to help

I follow this blog called I am Momma, hear me roar. She is doing a really cool pattern giveaway to people who donate to humanitarian aid for Japan. I thought I'd share this because it's a great way to help and the pattern is super CUTE!!

2 boys = never a dull moment!

Maybe it's the weather? Ever notice how when the weather changes the kids get extra rambunctious and naughty? Yesterday was no exception. I had to email some plans to be printed for Will and the boys were "playing" in Eli's room (or so I thought). They went into the bathroom and got into the baby oil. Eli poured half the container on his and Mason's hair! When I checked on them (seriously this happened in 30 seconds!) Eli said he was just doing their hair. Ugh notice the greased monkey look? hehe. So anyone have any suggestions on getting oil out of their shirts, towels, bathroom rug and everywhere else they touched?!

Moab

On a whim we decided we needed a vacation. The boys were getting restless being stuck inside all day and I was getting sick of cleaning them up from all the mud when it actually was warm enough for them to go outside. We decided we needed to go somewhere warmer where they could be outside, but not too far away since we only could go for a weekend. We chose Moab and we had so much fun! The boys did pretty well traveling. The first day we went to Arches. We put the boys in backpacks and hiked all over. The loved it! The next day we walked around town with the stroller, I had to laugh because most of the town doesn't open for 2 more weeks when the tourists come. I had forgotten how small, hippie-ish, and touristy Moab is. Our hotel had a nice pool that was as warm as bath water. We loved being able to swim and be the only people in the pool! We came home the scenic route back to Grand Junction. We played in the mall until closing time and headed home when the boys were sure to sleep! They were exhausted as you can see in the pictures. Mason kept leaning back in the backpack I was worried he'd fall out but luckily he never did! :-)

The boys!
