Taped

Our boy Thomas LOVES tape.  Like he loves candy or Mario or breathing.  It is his medium.  He tapes everything...  and I do mean EVERYTHING.

So, while I was walking around the house the other night, turning off lights and picking up tripping hazards in the halls, I decided to document all of Tom's work that he has hung on the walls.

 

Tom's Easter Egg - hung in Mom and Dad's room right above the light switch for us to see every day.

A picture of every one in our family, hung on the mantel... oh, including a robot.

A sign announcing Grandma's territory (Tom's words) on the doors to the downstairs where Grandma's room is.

A tally (of sorts) for Groundhog's day.

Just in case you need a pencil or a crayon when you head into the laundry room...

... or feel the need to write some numbers or letters or tallies in the living room....

You have only to look for the tape.

Books and brothers

Riddle: What makes both a librarian and a mother smile? 

 Answer: 

THIS!

Our Bailey-baby

Taking a break from showcasing my own adorable babies, I thought I would post a few pictures that make me smile every time I see them... the oh-so-sweet Miss Bailey Jean!

Can you imagine a cuter face than this?

Playing outside

These photos are from a while ago - when the weather was just warming up and the kids got to go outside for the first time without coats (a day of huge celebration in Tom's book).

 





And here are the kids playing with the Little Tikes climber they got for Christmas from their Grandma.

Crazy kiddos

I love my crazy, fun kids!

Playing at Grandma's

Here are a few more pictures of everyone playing outside on Easter at Grandma Bradshaw's.

Easter, continued

So, to finish up the enormous number of Easter pictures we took, here is the rest of our Easter day celebrations.


First off, Luigi made an appearance in Tom's Easter basket, so there was a joyous reunion of the Mario Brothers, which Thomas insisted on documenting.

Miss Bailey totally approved of the Italian Koopa-fightin' duo.  She even gave them her official stamp of approval!

Grandma, Uncle Dave, and Uncle Brad  put together an Easter Egg hunt for the kids, which they enjoyed immensely...

There's a reason Tyler is nicknamed "Crack"...  hehehe...

Then we got to dig into Aunt Teresa's bleedin' Rabbit cake.

And then just generally hung out in a over-gorged stupor.

Awesome day for all...  well, except for Bailey.  Her Aunt Amy has a strange sense of humor...
