instahi catchup
Found Zuzu sleeping away with his giraffe under his paw. Aww. :}
I took Superman to the Little Gym for the first time last week. At first he was a little nervous and I was wondering if he would cry at any point - but he didn't at all and ended up having a blast! :)
Last Friday evening I headed over to Shannon's house while her husband was out of town and we had a girls night like we used to do in highschool - yummy food and a good girl movie! And although we had the same general snacks, our taste has gotten more sophisticated - like instead of cheddar cheese, we've graduated to feta and brie. :}
Took my cute little godson with me to work Monday and Tuesday. Makes things interesting to have three little guys to chase around! :)
The boys love to climb on this little chest in the corner and sit there. Apparently there isn't quite room for three boys though and Eli plopped into the waste basket just behind it! Ha!
Large cardboard boxes: my most definite favorite toy for kids ever.
Story time on the couch!!
(And a terrible grainy cellphone pic! Oh well.)
He's just so stinkin' cute!
Quad stroller adventure for the first time! In preparation for when Little Lion and Little Monkey come home. I got quite a few double glances from cars passing by lol.
Stay tuned for a very exciting post.....!

Insta-catchup
Just another catch up on my life in the past week ish... :)
Cake Leah makes "yogurt milk" for her kids sometimes - part yogurt, part milk - so I decided to try it with the boys last week. Little Man thought this was one of the best things he'd ever tasted!
Last Tuesday it was finally warm enough to be outside for a while!! So we played out on the deck and the neighbor's sweet black and white cat came for a visit much to both boys' delight! Little Man is still a bit wobbly in his newly discovered walking skill and had only taken a few steps at a time for me...until this cat came and convinced him to walk half the length of the deck to come see him!! Note to self: cats are handy for a toddler learning to walk! :}
This sideways head-tilt is one of Superman's latest things. I don't know why he does it, but it's pretty cute!
Uhoh. I think I'm going to have a little monkey daredevil on my hands! Lol
Giraffe feet taste gooood! :}
Look! First tooth!!
Been working on a few things to add to my etsy shop! All sales will go towards Lauren's trip to China this summer!
Love having my brother work at SB!! :D
(Added bonus: If he does use my real name, he actually knows how to spell it correctly!)
Another etsy shop addition...as soon as I take better pictures of it anyways.
Tried a new Indian restaurant with the little sis the other night. It was soo delicious and that naan bread?! That's just half a piece of it that Lauren is holding!! Happy sigh... :)
We love reading books! Both boys sat here for a long time and Big Brother "read" out loud to LM. I asked him if he wanted Kiki to read it to them both and he said "No, (Big Brother) will read it!" And I was perfectly happy to let him be the one to read...cuz I love hearing him talk. :}
So I haven't mentioned the adoption of these boys' brothers in a long time! All the paperwork has officially been logged in in the other country - and that is a huge step! Now we are waiting for official approval from their side to adopt both Little Lion and Little Monkey. We have gotten several updated pictures of both boys and oooooh are they sooo precious!! I think after we get official approval is when we are allowed to share their pictures online, and I promise to do that just as soon as I am allowed! We also got some good news about Little Monkey - we weren't sure if he was walking at all...but apparently, not only is he walking, but he is running all over the place, which is awesome!
We are eagerly waiting for each new piece of the adoption puzzle that will lead up to traveling to bring these sweet boys home. Both boys have issues that need medical attention as soon as possible, so if you think of it, pray that God will continue to move crazy tall mountains (and boy has he moved some already!!!) to bring his little ones home sooner than later!!

Insta-catchup
The last week was super busy with Valentine's day fun with the boys I take care of, plus staying at Lauren's house for a few days while her mom was out of town. Not that I ever have to do much when Lauren is there because she won't let me! lol But I am there just in case something happens and someone needs me. Plus I get to play with two more cute boys... :}
"kiki, i want you to sit right here next to my bottom and play trains with me!"
Hello. This is my belly. That is all.
Chocolate oatmeal for a pre-Valentine's Day breakfast!
Little Man thought this was most fabulous! :)
Helping make a treat for mommy and daddy.
Mmm... and yes, of course there was a taste test. But just a small one, I promise. :}
Superman LOVED broccoli!!
Couldn't decide which toy to let him play with....
I know this one is fuzzy but oh well. My littlest Valentine gave me a box of chocolates. :)
Valentine's evening I met Michael and my friend Natalie for dinner at Market Square followed by watching The Princess Bride at the TN Theater. It was so fun to have something to do that night! And you could hear people all through the theater quoting the best lines from the movie. Ha!
I think the cat got annoyed that I had been gone all week....
On Friday I got to meet an old friend for lunch with her super sweet little 3 month old - who just got her first tooth!! (Don't you just LOVE her chubby little cheeks and lips?!?!)
After lunch I visited my little bro at his new job at one of my favorite spots!
Mmmm.....
Aaand that brings me to today...shopping with Leah for some dress clothes for when she starts teaching! Crazy that the consignment stores are about as expensive as the mall!! What's up with that?!
Laura and I are always attempting to keep Leah well fed...Laura text us and told us we should get some ice cream...so I made sure to get Leah a SUPER LARGE frozen yogurt! haha! :}

1) about to roll over...with a couple fists full of blanket...
2) hey!! who turned out the lights?! where did everyone go??
3) OH!! there you are! whew!
4) haha! that was kind of fun!! :)
Here is a rare glimpse of the nanny who is usually behind the camera...! :) In the afternoons, I usually put Superman in his bounce&play/activity/jumparoo/exersaucer-type-thingamajig (that would be the technical term for it...) while I wash up the bottles and stuff from the day and I usually bring in my iphone or ipad and turn on some happy music (my favorite kind to listen to...i don't like slow sad music...not usually...). So today I got done and turned around to find my little guy staring at me - probably cuz I was singing along... lol. So I turned on Lady Antebellum and picked him up and danced with him around the kitchen. He thought this was fabulous - but only if he could be positioned to where he could actually see the ipad where the music was coming from. Ha. Just like my Mr. Happy - he has to study things and try to figure out how they work, I'm convinced! :)
Now I can say I've danced with Superman.
:)

I think we have yet to make it one entire day without needing to change outfits...lol :)
Superman laughed out loud for me for the very first time today!! Of course once I turned on the video on my phone, he wouldn't laugh quite as much...but (**if this video will work...) you can still hear him a little bit. Soo cute!! :)

Apparently this morning was the perfect time for stretching on the blanket that used to be mommy's when she was a baby. :) followed by some toe grabs on the changing table and just being cute. :)
