Bucket Boy & 100

I don't know why, but littest boy loves to walk around the house with buckets on his head.  He looks down through the bottom of it -- so he doesn't  wreck (very often).  He calls it a "hat" and when he does this, he gets everyone watching rolling with laughter.  Okay, so maybe I just answered my own question -- he does it for a laugh.  So...sharing my bucket boy with ya!

 

 ...maybe Tobie dog wants to wear the bucket for a while?  Nope.  Well, more bucket time for Gavin, then.

 There are lots of moments during my days with the boys at home that I want to pull out my hair, cry, or hide for a few minutes hoping that noone "seeks" me so I can have a bit of peace.  But, there are just as many moments where i get tears of joy and pride....this is one of the latters.

Owen teaching Liam to write "100".  Owen was talking to Liam about the strokes on the paper and telling him how big of a number 100 is (i.e. not many people are 100 years old because its "so many).

 Liam's turn to write the number.

 When Liam finished, they both cheered!  They kept writing 100 in my day planner with an orange sharpie until their little selves got tired of it. 

So, if I miss an upcoming appointment -- you now know why ....
