Apparently the common theme above is lips huh!

We Finally Did it...

Tonight is the second night without the BINKY...wish us luck. Brody hasn't really thrown any big fits but the problem is, he won't stop talking long enough to fall asleep.  Tonight both boys were tossing and turing and refusing to fall asleep and Brody whines out "But I love Boone"!

I said "That's great buddy" and Boone says "Oh, thanks Bro" and they wrap each other up in a hug with a kiss and Boone rubs Brody's back to go to sleep.  That's how I left them...45 minutes later, Brody is screaming at the door to their room.

He doesn't ask for a binky but needs to be rocked for awhile.  As I lay him back down, I am wishing for that blasted pacifier to plug up his mouth so he'll quit talking.  Boone is sleeping peacefully through it all.  I finally say "Close your eyes and go to sleep".  He flops his head to the side, closes his eyes and says "Wike Dis". I say "Yes" and he reaches for his brother's hand, wrenches it from under the covers and starts frantically manipulating Boone's fingers (as is his habit) like Annie Sullivan finger spelling into Helen Keller's hand when she first understood the word 'WATER".  It is an annoying habit but it seems to relax him.

Just as I think its over and I can sneak out.  He pops his head up and commands "Want some watuh".  I get him one small sip and he gulps it down and responds "Moy".  One more time with the "watuh" and he insists we change James Taylor to Jack Johnson.  I think he's finally out!  

I know I'll be back in there at 3 am playing out a similar scenario so I'll wish all of you sweet dreams instead.

Thunder Storm

 I fell asleep before any rain came, if it even did, but I had to get some photos of this late season lightening show.  Normally we have these storms in June but they really, they are so rare any time of the year up here.  I love to sit and watch them.  Even if its pouring, Josh and I set a blanket and watch in front of the sliding glass door.  I really wanted to wake the boys to watch but that would have been a bad idea.  

Fabulous thunder storms are one thing I really miss about the South (and hushpuppies and catfish and fried pies, you get the picture). 

I didn't use a tripod so the shake is pretty bad but I think they still show how awesome nature's lights are.
