Bedtime after a trip to the Hair Cuttery where they were sheared, I mean buzzed last week.
Sam eating dinner with his toes on the table. We love to tickle them and are glad he's never crashed backwards and split his head open like my cousin's baby. They look so cute poking up over the edge of the table.
Sam eating pasta and hugging his new Alaskan sloth bear. 
I took the boys to see Josh at USDA one day last week and his co-workers lavished teddy bears and other gifts on them. They loved seeing Daddy at work and were sad he couldn't come home with us. 
Michael at nap time. He still hates the flash, but just look at that face I get to kiss a million times each time he goes down for a nap. I could eat his chin.
He has started singing a few words of the lullabies with me. He'll sing the rhyming words at the end of the phrases in "I Am a Child of God," "My Heavenly Father Loves Me," "I Am Like a Star," and "Edelweiss." 
Today I sang him one I used to sing a lot when he was born but haven't used in a while. It's "Mother, I Love You" but I sing "Michael, I love you. Michael, I do. Father in Heaven has sent Mommy you. When I am near you I love to hear you whisper so softly that you love me too. Michael, I love you. I love you. I do." He kept pointing to himself while I sang! He looked into my eyes and held my hand and said "do" along with me with a very sweet smile on his face. I asked "Again?" And he smiled and nodded. I sang it two more times and he seemed to understand the song and just kept holding my hand and looking into my eyes. He smiled and said "Church." I think he says that when he feels the Spirit. He said it yesterday during the spiritually charged rest hymn in Sacrament Meeting. I just want to keep this moment in my pocket for ever.
Sweet dreams, Michael, and don't grow too much before you wake up, my boy.

Oh...what a beautiful, sweet blog! Time goes so fast...it seems like just seconds that they are our sweet babies and then they're off running. I love that you wrote about these moments you love. It has made me sit still for a moment and appreciate being a mother!
So precious, Kristina! Those are really sweet moments that you have recorded. I can't wait to be able to have sweet moments with our little Eddie. But I think they have already began :) Love you!
They do grow to fast. We are so bless to have cameras so we can actually freeze these moments. I love how you changed the lyrics on that song. I just might have to borrow that idea and use it with my boys.
Kristina your little guys are so so so cute!!! I wish our boys could play together. This age is so fun isn't it! Noah sure is a blast. Yeah, it freaked me out when he climbed out but he was fine I just worry if he'll try it again... he hasn't yet!! Thank Goodness!!! I don't really want to get a toddler bed just yet because I don't think he would stay in it for a second, but I will if he starts doing this all the time. Noah sure loves to look at his cousins pictures on here... I think he is missing them. If was fun last year at Mary and Eddies when they got to play together. I wish that could happen more often. Are you guys planning on trying for a new baby yet? We are now but hasn't happened yet so we'll see. Miss you guys and love reading your blog!!!
what sweet little men you have!
I had a lot to catch up on...adorable aprons and cute cute boys! There are so many moments I would love to freeze in time. I am almost always simultaneously sad knowing that I might not be able to re-live or accurately remember every detail and feeling. So fun!!
WHAT?? Since when did your boys get so big??? They look like they're Hunter sized (or maybe even bigger)! Cute! I love your blog.
Oh, Kristina, what a special blessing it was to read your blog today. I hadn't looked in a while, and this just made me SO HAPPY! I really pray you can bring those magical boys to visit the mountains someday!
