Messy Marvins

My kids don't get a bath every night...I know shocking right?  Sometimes I look at the clock and wonder how it's already 8:00 and neither kid is in pajamas!  So, if I know they are due for a bath then I just let them have some fun playing and not worry about how messy they are.  These are cute pictures of my kids even with their messy hair and faces!

I love it when Ryan looks at Lyla and says, "I thought girls weren't supposed to be messy".  Why can't a girl get messy?  I used to spill guacamole on my new outfits at school when I was younger.  It's ok, Lyla...you can still be a lady and be messy sometimes!

I mean...look at this girl!  :)

Cade loves his messy sister!

This is the face of a little girl who ate spaghetti and then had her brother poor flour in her hair!

There's a piece of spaghetti!

Lyla 9 Months

Lyla 9 Months!

You are such a joy!  I love how excited you get over the simplest things.  

You can sign the word "more" and you can clap your hands.  You stand up by yourself without pulling up on anything and you've started to use a walker to walk around.  Cade thinks that is so funny watching you walk around. He cheers you on!  You also like to shake your "booty" when you hear music.  You do alot of bear crawling around the house.  You are so quick....sometimes too quick and fall on your face.  Daddy likes to all you little bit and I call you squirmy wormy!  You are so quick.  Cade calls you Lyla (with his tongue handing out of his mouth)

You like to drink out of a sippy cup now..just like brother.

Such a big girl standing by yourself.

so pretty!!!

You can give your brother a run for his money when it comes to being messy!

Getting ready to swim!

Memorial day party!

I have got to get Ryan to take more pictures of me with my little ones!  These are precious.

Cade at 9 months!!

Lyla at 9 months!

You keep your tongue out of your mouth just like Cade did and still does.

Every month it becomes more of a challenge to get them to sit still!! But I love these "mischievous" pictures too!

Shaving Cream Fun!

When Lyla takes her morning nap I try to do something just with Cade.  I was brave this morning!  I pulled out some shaving cream I bought for such an occasion.  I took Cade's clothes off...I thought I was so prepared.  It never really started off innocent.  I thought he'd just like to smoosh the cream around the table  and play with it.  Well it went straight to his tummy.  Then he started to smack the globs on the table which sent shaving cream flying across the kitchen!  Really!  It went all the way to the sink.  At least it smelled good...something that my kitchen could use.  

 

Cade said he wrote his name.  C-A-D-E!

How does it get on his nose and eyelash?

He's starting to get a little more adventurous...I'm getting worried!

Thankfully he's pretending to eat it...

 I turned around and then the shaving cream had been rubbed all over his legs and feet...So I picked him up and put him outside.  I've learned my lesson.  We'll start outside next time.

Now, this is fun!

just about every inch of him is covered.  He liked to make hand and footprints in the grass!

Unfortanetly, he didn't pretend this time.  He put his finger in his mouth...then used his other hand (which was full of shaving cream) to wipe it out.  I got a squirt bottle of water and cleaned out his mouth.  YUCK!

Handprint!

What I came back to when we came inside!!
