Random Happenings

Again, I've come across pictures of our random day-to-day happenings with nothing really warranting it's very own blog post.  So, enjoy the dump of pictures/what we've been up to lately!

Addison and Jonas LOVE this swing the most on their new swingset.  Especially when Daddy is there to push them super high.  Addison is even getting good at helping Jonas get up/down on it all by herself.

This may look upside down - but this is exactly how she posed for me.  This girly LOVES posing for pictures and also loves getting dolled up with sunglasses.  This is her trying to convince me she needed her own sunglasses.  It didn't work....but she IS cute!
Boredom at home usually either leads to these two arguing/fighting over a toy or chasing each other around the house while giggling.  This was a good day when I actually got to watch a good old fashion wrestling match.  I love that they wrestle with each other.  It may look like Addison was winning but Jonas is known for his cat-like maneuvers.  He's a wiggler.
Along with a shared room, we decided on a whim to splurge on our first family pets.  This is as close as it gets for this Mommy to own a pet while taking care of little ones.  They love having the fish share their room and falling asleep to the bubbles and light.  Each family member has their very own fishy.  Sadly, we've already had to teach Addison about the circle of life when Mommy & Daddy's fish didn't make it very long.  With some new replacements, we are finally on an upswing and they are doing wonderfully.  Welcome to the family fishies!

With preschool nearing an end, this is Jonas and Mommy's last little date together.  I spoiled him by buying a truck to play with while we waited for our food.  He and I have had some fun times with just the two of us.  Next school year we'll have baby sister to tote with us but I'm sure we'll still find ways to have fun while Addison is in school.

We got a bit of cabin fever and decided to visit a new park today.  We headed to Bella Vista and Addison and Jonas were thrilled with our selection.  Especially since it catered to kids their size.  Mommy got to just sit back and enjoy watching them have fun.  Jonas decided to take a snack break and Addison was off making lots of new friends on the playground.

Jonas is just sitting back and perusing some periodicals while we wait for the doctor to do our check-up on baby sister. Addison was at school so Jonas got to enjoy Mommy & Daddy & a waiting room all to himself.  Lucky boy ;o)

A random day of cleaning led these two to finally take a break and sit down for a cartoon.  Addison does great with sitting....Jonas not so much.  This was a rarity which is why the picture was taken.  He doesn't look too happy about it does he?

The Hufford boys....sawing some logs on a weekend nap.  Such a cute photo op I couldn't resist it.

Jonas and Mommy got to enjoy a date together while Daddy & Addison did some Mother's Day shopping with the car. We managed to have fun on our walk to the park and our dinner at Sonic.  Thank heavens for wagons that pull hefty little boys.  This pregnant Mommy has no energy left at this stage of the game.

Enjoying a dinner of Sonic after our walk to the park.  He looks soooo grown up here!  It was such a fun and peaceful time to just slow down and reflect on our relationship and what it means to be to be his and Addison's Mommy.  So grateful for my cute kiddos and can't wait to meet their sister soon.  I am blessed.
