decluttering

it's a word i hear often in my house.
"you up for some decluttering?", "i'm gonna do some decluttering", "let's declutter.".
i can honestly say i think i hear this word at least once a week.
i often think casey's thinking is, "if we can clear out the house then my head might not be so cloudy either."
 after all we do live in 1400 sq. feet with 2 little ones.
one small bathroom, no garage, oh and super small closets.
clutter adds up quickly around here.

all this to say ... this week we've been decluttering.
i think we're about to put our house on the market.
at least i'm going with that for right now and enjoying getting rid of lots of "stuff"!

i took a break the other day cause these boys were being so sweet to one another.
well, webb was being sweet to townes.
he usually is, just sometimes he likes to rough him up a little too much for my liking.

this boy sure knows how to smile for the camera.


cracks me up!
we're trying to figure out who he's looking like these days. 
i can't wait to see what happens to this hair of his.
it's got some body!


after i took, i guess, one too many pics of townes, webb said "mommy, i fink that's enough."
i stopped in my tracks.
yes sir, i thought.


speaking of manners, we're heavy into "yes ma'am", "no ma'am", "yes sir", "no sir".
the other day i asked webb to put his empty milk cup in the sink.
he looked at me, then looked at the floor and said "yes ma'am mommy" in this little man voice,
almost as if he was saying, "i really don't want to but if you say so".

lots and lots of change around here.
it's good change though.
more talking, less crying.
from webb that is.
i must add ... townes hardly ever cries.

speaking of t, he's an official sitter-upper as of the beach trip.
and today i felt the ridges of his first tooth coming in.
no sleep, part deux!
