Little bit of this and a little bit of Nutella....

I think Nutella is quite possibly one of the most sinful, delightful spreads on this planet.  I am perched at the desk with Charlie in my lap, a bag of pretzels and an extra large TUB of Nutella (yes, I said tub... you can get them at World Market... my new favorite store...).  Bliss.

We've had a busy week to say the least.  The snowbirds were late arriving this year... and when they did arrive, they all came on the SAME plane because I feel like my business picked up overnight.  And with the holidays approaching there are more social events on the calendars too!  I'm not complaining about any of it though, because I'm blessed to have work and to be social!!

The boys are CUTER THAN EVER these days and I can't get enough of them.  Adrey is TALKING UP A STORM!  I can't get over how much he's saying and REPEATING (we officially have to watch what we say now) these days.  He says basically everything, although not all legible to the average ear, Mommy and Daddy figure out what he's saying about 85% of the time!  A few of my favorite things he's saying these days either because of how he says it or with the inflection he uses:
"Ahhhhh No." - (the "ahhhh" being a hesitation as if he's thinking about his answer), "Goofball", "Pancake" (pronounced "pana-cock-a"), "Yes" - This is big because for the LONGEST time when you asked him a question that was a "yes" answer he would just smile and make this funny noise.  Now he answers with a formal "yes"... and it's so funny!  He is making his mama and daddy so proud because he's been working SO HARD the last 6 months at speech therapy (3 days a week).  Money WELL spent as it's making our lives much easier now that we are able to communicate with words.  He LOVES his speech therapist, Amy, and seeing how she works with him warms my heart.  After each session she gives Adrey a big hug and tells him she loves him.  Adrey adores her... it's really quite special. 

We headed to the pool a couple weeks ago and I was able to get a couple shots of the boys in their suits...







Monday  night was the Festival of Lights on 3rd Street where the Christmas tree lights were turned on and there was lots of live music and food.  I think that as long as the boys are in a stroller, we will not be attending this event!  It was mass chaos, and with the double stroller I spent the evening saying, "Oh, sorry.  Crap, sorry.  Oh s#%t, sorry. Oh my gosh, are you ok?  Sorry.  Sorry.  Sorry." to everyone's heals I managed to hit.  As much as I LOVE (and I mean LOVE) our new double stroller, it was a bit of a challenge getting through a crowd of people packed in like sardines.  Charlie was an absolute HIT in his Santa suit!!
  

And Mrs. Claus arrived and the happy couple posed for pictures with their daddies!

  I love how in this next picture even though I was just taking a picture of the babes, John was still smiling for the camera.  Lol!  (Love you, Honey)


It looks like Bella's saying "Charlie you have something right there on your cheek.  What is that?"


Three men and their babies!

 I love how Adrey is looking up at Billy in this picture. 
Precious.


 And yesterday at Adrey's school, all the pre-schoolers got to bring their tricycles to school and they had a little parade.  The parking lot was all blocked off and the tricycles were everywhere!  I had to get a picture!  Too cute!!


I've got several videos of the boys I'll be posting tomorrow! 
Happy Day before Thanksgiving!!
