This and That

We had the Cheever kids over the other night for a little Polar Express party. Yes...that is a train they are sitting in. I had very little time and resources to work with, ok?! It was a lot of fun for them though, and they didn't seem to notice the ghettoness at all. We even served hot chocolate at the hot chocolate song...



So there is this neighborhood that really goes all out for Christmas. There are like 20 guys dressed up as Santa and you just drive your car down their street and they pass out all sorts of Christmas candy and hats and they even have this little "Santa's Hut" set up! It was so cool! So much to do in such a small town!

So we celebrated Christmas a little early last night with Jane, Ed and Tina because we're not sure if they'll be able to make it for Christmas day with all these storms we're supposed to get. So just in case we let him "open" grandpa Ed's gift...his very first bike! Mom, didn't we have the same exact one? Don't these boys already look like trouble? We are in for some interesting years...
Thanks Ed!

How is it that babies can get away with this and still look absolutely adorable? Jim tried it on me and just made me want to vomit.

catching up

Just so everyone knows...we moved...again. Luckily not far. We are still in Salina KS and still really liking it. We just moved to a much bigger house! I guess you really had to see our old house to fully understand my excitement. It would fit in our new living room...no joke. So eventually I will get some pictures of the house. But in the meantime here are some pics of the boys and our going ons. Oh, and there are like 4 new posts. For some reason this computer won't let me add more than 4 pictures at a time onto my blog...

Sawyer fell asleep playing with his favorite toy. At least he didn't take it to bed with him again.


New boots! Thanks again Jane! He wears them all over the place...without pants? Who knows. He is very much into stripping right now. We were at Walmart the other day and we turn our backs for a second and Sawyer has his shoes off and socks and is just about out of his pants before we get him. I really don't want to end up on PeopleofWalmart.com....come on buddy.

It was a long day of moving

Wyatts Photo Shoot

Sawyer can't get enough of Wyatt. The first thing he does in the morning (besides coming downstairs and waking me up) is jump into bed with him and waking him up. And if I don't let him into Wyatts room he yells and cries until he wakes up and then smiles, grabs my hand, and leads me to his room...I can't for some reason show videos on this computer, but I have some really fun ones of these two together. Sawyer starts to laugh which makes Wyatt laugh which makes Sawyer laugh even harder and so on...it's really funny.

More Wyatt

I posted this not just because I love Tina, but I wanted everyone to be able to see just how big Wyatt is getting. I mean really...is he only 4 month (almost 5)?

And now a haiku entitled "Go Away":

Camo. Green, brown, red-neck tux
Invisible boy
Poop stains, spit-up disappear

I realize a haiku is 5/7/5...but how many people really know that?

Baking Day!!

So keeping with the Palmer tradition Jim and I had baking day last weekend. Mom I really missed those carmel, chocolate pretzels. But we made some really fun and yummy things! Tina! I need that recipe for those absolutely wonderful cookies!! The Cheevers came over too and all the kids made gingerbread houses...I think there was more eating of the candy then building of the houses. We also tried doing a little photo shoot of the two babies with santa hats on in the nude...Didn't work out like we wanted...Wyatt peed all over little Bodey...poor boy. Baking day was a hit though! I did however REALLY miss my family! :(
