Random pictures

It hasn't been our best week.  Besides getting sick, in the space of about three days, we realized both Ryan's Ipod (that he has all his medical stuff loaded on) and our camera were missing.  We have no idea how, or if they're in some black hole only the twins know about.  All I know is my house has never been more clean and we've looked under every nook and cranny in the house.  And I missed some great photo ops this week!  So in fond remembrance of when we did have a camera, here are just some random pictures from the last month or so.

Here's me trying to take some self photos with Cash.  Even though they're not great shots, I love their candid nature, and how true they are to trying to get pictures with my kids!

I had said it would be a good family photo day since we were all ended up in coordinating colors for church, but this was about as far as we got since no one's much in the mood for anything by the time we're done with church.

Then we found some mice in the house that seem to be really fond of the whole Costco-sized block of cheese.  It must be way better than a single piece by the fits they throw when we try to take it away from them.

Sometimes I have to stop and remember to appreciate how pretty it is here - like the view from the playground right outside our house:

It's even more blissful now that they put a fence around it!  It was pretty hard before to relax at the playground since it was so hard to keep my children contained, or even wandering in the same direction.  I even called the man in charge of our park just to thank him.  He was a little confused.  Guess that doesn't happen much here.  :)












We also love going down to the park at the tip of south beach - I always try to time it when the cruise ships go out cause they come so close and it's so fun to see them leave.

 

 We were telling our friends what a gorgeous park it was and how much fun it was - and then of course by the time they got there it was cold and raining!  But it was still fun and I think the boys thought it was a pretty novel and cool concept to be playing out in the rain.  Besides it being novel for it to be raining in Miami and not downpouring in the first place. And they looked kind of cute all soggy. 

 

And then there's the naked obsession that I mentioned before.  Pretty much anything that can be done naked is done naked around here (bum shot warning).

(Notice how in the last picture, the two are playing and chubs is finding leftover pizza, of course.)

Let's hope we find our camera or I may not be inspired to post for a while!
