All about Tools and BIG NEWS!

My boys are all about tools. Not the toy ones. Those are "no fun". We're talking the tools that daddy uses. The ones they should not be left alone with and that some might consider dangerous for little boys to play with. Us, well, their a part of our day. Especially the ones that turn on and have something sharp(and why this is I do not know?)!
And when you get the chance to take things apart with said tools and use them all by yourself, it's loads of entertainment.
Last weekend(you know, when it was pretending to be summer again!), Cameron and Haiden were entertained with this old jeep that does not work (and Mommy can't seem to get rid of the clunky thing out of our already overflowing mess of toys!)
Looking for just the right spot to clip.


Little brother of course had to get in on the tool action. And please pay no attention to the fact that he has winter boots on! A battle not worth fighting, but at times I have serious worries about what our neighbors think the way Haiden is attired at moments!

And then when you add to the tools an actual project with Daddy and Grandpa Vruggink, you have a little piece of heaven for these two!
We finally got our front doors hung up this weekend. They turned out okay. I will have to see what I can find at Hobby Lobby to add some pizazz to them, but they look a little blah. And by pizazz I mean something to hang over the doors that is multi-seasonal. Remember, no crafty lady lives here! So no pictures of the blahness. But here is some cuteness at work!

Both boys eagerly searching for something that the tools could be used for!

HA! How many Vruggink's does it take to hang a door?! Many hands make the job easier, right!? Of course with these little hands you have to be on your toes so that they don't cut something a little too quick ;)

And now for the BIG NEWS!!! Are you curious? Cameron can now say.........


"I can curl my tongue!"
Seriously this boy has been trying this for SO long. And now with every bit of concentration and as deep as breath as possible, he can do it! All. Day. Long. And every time he accomplishes this feat it's like it's the first time because someone has to look or he needs to run and find something he can see himself in.
Now seriously, the 3 of you who read my blog did not think any type of preggo announcement was coming, did you! HA! That's not going to happen, but I thought it would be fun to tease:)
