we made a trip to il this past weekend to see some family. lisa came with us and it was SO great having her there. she was such a huge help to me- i even got to sleep in two mornings. that never happens! and i mean sleep in until after morning nap... i know- it rocked! anyway, my cousins jess and bets and her little man colton were back too so it was a bonus to see them- and a great trip all around. for some reason- and i am told it is a toddler thing- but noah has taken a liking to banging his head on various things around the house. be it a soft material or hard it doesn't seem to matter to him. he still bangs away. i'm also told that he won't do it hard enough to hurt himself- but it doesn't look like any fun and i have yet to see the excitement in it. and of course with the head banging comes that whole "why is he doing that- should he be evaluated by someone" thought process. the same folks tell me no- that he is fine- so we'll just watch him for now i suppose. he seems to do it when he gets really excited and i think isn't sure what the heck to do with all that excitement- that's my professional opinion anyway. and since we have been back i have been organizing and cleaning stuff out like crazy. i never really did this when i was pregnant with noah- but this time i feel like i have SO much to do and not a lot of time to do it in. but then on the flip side- i can't wait to be done being pregnant and have the baby here. i'm guessing i just need to relax and enjoy it. back to the trip.... here are some pics of the boys playing and some photo ops with gigi (great grandma). the boys were less than happy to be taking pictures- but we at least got them in a few. get ready though- there are a lot. and regarding the shirtless kiddos.... it was a little warm that evening and who wouldn't run around showin some skin if they could?? can't get enough of cute baby fat......
trying on grandma's slippers- they are so soft!

this is where the head banging occurred- at least it was soft.....
