Too cute!
Also – I think you and I have the exact same couch – the same color and fabric for sure!

You mean you own a browny-supposed-to-look-like-grey couch?
I know the feeling.

They are adorable. May your heart explode like fireworks for them always! =)
Sandra recently wrote…Dear Sand
That might be too much for my poor heart
You linked up with us! Awwwww. It’s like getting a visit from royalty.
Scrumplet looks to be a bit of a flirt next to Monkey’s seriousness.
Julie recently wrote…He’s a big kid now! #iPPP
Royalty you say? You’re too kind! (and meh but that would be rude, heh)
I think Scrumps is definitely going to be flirtatious. He gives me a gummy melt-your-heart smile every single morning.
Adorable. I can understand why they make your heart explode!!!

Why does it look like monkey is trying to strangle scrumplet?

Thanks for linking up with us, Alison!
Greta recently wrote…Aqua-Bored #iPPP
Thank you! And of course!
So sweet!
It’s reassuring to know I’m not the only parent who feels that way about her children.
I think we ALL feel that way about our children
They are so sweet! And yes, heart & head exploding. That’s it exactly

I love that picture. I know EXACTLY what you mean. Those 3 kids are my heart. I have no idea what I did before I had them… How did I ever understand love?
Kristen recently wrote…How to Mother the child when you are not the Mother
Yes, exactly!
Love that you said “heart” and “head” explode. I love that there’s the sweetness and the sour in there. That is real life! Love you for that!
Oh yes, it is real indeed. Sometimes, one more than the other!
Stop it with the cute baby pictures. My ovaries are rebelling against the IUD…
Hahahaha!!
What a heart-melt those two are!
I’ve been reading through your posts trying to catch up (sorry about the baby pics) and then saw your tweet you’re changing your blog name? Can’t wait to see what that’s all about!
Yes I am! Outgrown MWT. New blog to go live in a few days! (hopefully)
Your boys are just beautiful.

Lovely photo.

And the day will soon come. xo
OMG LOVE this picture! I love when the big brother tries to hold and cuddle with the little one and the little one is just splayed out funny across the bigger ones legs and the bigger looks like he’s going to strangle the little one but really he’s just trying to hold on. Love.
Christine recently wrote…Friday Round-Up
