What a sweet innocent face...HA! Fooled you! This week has been a little nuts with these crazy boys! We've had 2 bloody noses, a fat lip, and bleeding front teeth all before Wednesday. Well, tonight was the topper. I think pre-term labor is in my future!
Just before 7:00 p.m. it begins to rain pretty steadily. I am cooking dinner and run upstairs briefly. Dallen comes upstairs to inform me that the front door is wide open and Ethan is not outside. I run downstairs and begin looking for Ethan. Jaxon, Dallen, and I search the entire house, garage and car...no Ethan. I go outside and walk around the house checking the window wells on the side...no Ethan. By now Jaxon is in hysterics because he thinks Ethan is in the storm water drain across the street! Dallen just grabs his shoes and says, "I'm goin' out to look for 'Efan'. He and I put on our coats and I told him to go one way around the block while I went the other. I'm not a big runner these days so I got half way down the block and decided to go back and get the car! I found Ethan fighting Dallen off on the other side of the block. He was SOAKING wet, had Jaxon's shoes on (the wrong feet), and just looked at me like, "What did I do?". I tossed them in the car and drove home. I swear I was going to go into labor...I never thought about the stupid water drain until Jaxon brought it up.
I guess now that it's over it's pretty funny. Just picture Me and Dallen out hunting for our almost 3-year-old while Jaxon stands on the porch wailing for all to hear! My neighbors must think I am a world class mother! HA! All is well now. The kids are in bed, the sliding glass door is pinned and the front door "hotel lock" is thrown. No, I am not intentionally trying to keep someone out...I'm trying to keep curious little boys IN!!!

What a week. I would have freaked!! Don't you love how innocent they are and you are in hysterics. But, I am glad you have that nice hotel lock.
Carter and Anderson have escaped from me one time each--it's a good thing I get so scared otherwise I'd kill them! :)
i love that you have a blog! we r so excite for you and your family - you are such a patient woman!
That is a great story. I love that you now have to lock your boys in, not keep the strangers out. Too funny.
