Go Nay Nay!!!

As most of you know there are two Nathans in my life. My crazy and wonderful son, Nate, and Nathan, my sweet baby brother. It seems like just yesterday that my mom brought Nathan (a.k.a. Nay Nay) home who looked like a swollen beet because of an allergic reaction he had from something my mom ate right before giving birth. He was quite the handful for my mom with all of his allergies and asthma, so I decided to take on the role as Lil' Momma to help out. Of course, me thinking I was Nathan's second mom wasn't always helpful. In fact, I was so bossy and overbearing that I might as well have been called Big Momma!!!! I was just trying to help. :) With that said....I love my baby brother and it blows my mind that he is already 17 years old and headed to college in the fall. CRAZY!!! He has grown up to be a smart, polite, funny, and extremely caring young man who I deeply respect.

Enough of all the cheesy stuff....here's a video of Nathan being a dork with his friends. It cracked me up and should be entertaining for anyone who knows him. Enjoy!

Leah at 18 months..

Little lady is already 18 months old!!! CRAZY! She officially has turned into a sassy little girl who can hold her own in the Hanson house.....which says a lot. Especially when it comes to her big brother, Nate, who is constantly picking on her. Anyhow, she went in for her well-baby earlier this week and all went well. She measured in at 27.5 lbs and 33 1/2 inches long. I don't know what her exact head measurements were but Dr. Robin said they were off the charts (big surprise). Big heads mean big brains...Right?! :)

Leah finally went into the optometrist for her blocked tear duct and they scheduled the surgery for April 21st. It's about a 15 minute procedure which obviously required general anesthesia (BOOO!), in order to keep her still. We are ready to get that taken care of and be done with all the eye boogers!!!





Awwww...Leah is reading a book (upside down!).



Up to no good! :)

Up close and personal...


Here are some close-ups of my little munchkins. Bath time is the only place I can get some decent shots of the kids because they're confined into one area. Anyhow, these happen to be some good shots of their eyes.

It's been too long..

I seem to be getting worse and worse at keeping up with my blog. No excuses this time.....I've just been lazy, because I make time to window shop online everyday....yet somehow I never get around to updating my blog. I haven't had alot of interesting stories to share and I've felt far from creative......soooooo....here we are.

February was pretty low key except for are super fun trip to Texas (Devenny Fix). We had a blast and the kids got along so well. In fact, Nate and Parker are quite the duo...DOUBLE TROUBLE!!!!! I can't tell you how many times I walked into a room to see Nate/Parker flying in mid air off some piece of furniture/electronic. YIKES!!! The girls got along well and Leah had to step up her game to try and keep up with her super agile cousin, Eden. Good times!!!

It was so much fun having all the kids together and Ty and I of course enjoyed our visit with Jess & Mike. Hanging out with them is so easy....our days consist of working out, kids, eating, and the occasional shopping adventure. What more can I ask for?! :)

Like I said before..February was kind of a bore besides our trip. I don't have many pictures to post, however, I did get a video of all the kids interacting. If you do decide to tune in then I should warn you that this video may make you a little dizzy. Oh and you might want to turn the volume down because I'm doing the narratting, which means it's LOUD!!!!!
