we’re into shoes…or boots rather. These blue snow boots are the only form of foot attire Sam will wear these days. He loves these ugly little things. He can’t seem to grasp the fact that these boots are not appropriate for Stake Conference, swimming lessons, or the new little sports class he’s enrolled in. Today he told me that he’s going to wear his boots all summer long. Oh, I hope not!
Should the rare opportunity arise for him to wear regular shoes, he’s so very particular about them. He complains that the laces are too tight…so I loosen them…but then they’re too loose…so I tighten them…but then they itch his feet and they’re suddenly bumpy…ahhhhh!! What’s a mother to do, but let him wear the dang snow boots? I do put my foot down when it comes to church though…it causes quite a few tears, but I’m not giving in…I’m not.
Thank goodness he's also way into wearing ties lately. I don't mind these one bit. Doesn't he look grown up?

This week…
we’re also into climbing…which entails falling and lots of bumps and bruises. Max is a monkey these days. While we were at the park yesterday, Max took about 10 bad falls. He always recovers quickly, which is great, but it makes my heart sink to hear his head smack against the sidewalk. Playgrounds are going to be scary with him this summer…hold on.
This week…
we’re into staying busy and keeping our minds off something huge that is happening in only 9 days. Thank goodness for: Relief Society birthday parties, which require a good chunk of time this week, 2 busy little boys, which also require a good chunk of time, and Easter candy, which is keeping me sane.
Yikes.

I love your pictures and I love Max's smile. Sam and his boots make me laugh and it also makes me happy that other people have picky kids too. And that huge thing happening to you guys next week....I hope it works out great, I am sure it will and I have been thinking a lot about you guys. See you soon
Kaitlyn was like Sam with being very particular about her shoes. You just need to move somewhere warmer and he can wear flip flops all the time;)
Sam looks very handsome in his tie. Where's a picture of Max in his tie you made?!?. He looked so cute in it on Sunday.
what sweet little boys. love sam's tie..and his boots! :)
Your pictures made me smile. Your boys are so sweet and make me so excited to get to know Dallin as he grows up. Boys are so fun.

My long lost roomie!! How are you? I just found your blog through Miranda B. Andersen's blog. Your kids are so adorable...that Sam is a Lindsey look-alike. What year are you in Med school? I'm in Iowa and my husband's a 1st year ophthalmology resident.
So good to see you.
