Big A wearing a Durr boy's glasses (I wasn't there during this so I am not sure which one), he is too cute with them on. It almost wants me to want him to need them but I have corrective lenses so the longer he doesn't need them the better.
Little A loves getting attention from basically anyone but Jill does it whenever he wants and has started giving the boys Root Beer when she asks "Who is your favorite aunt?" and they SHOUT "JILL!!!" So of course, she has moved up on the favorite aunt list. It has been fun to be able to be around non-student Jill, she is still really busy but it is more social busy, not so stressful.**I have decided that the boys' "favorite aunt" is whoever is around. They love Ann's house because of the train, cannot ruin the floor upstairs (sorry Ann but I hope it stays that way for a while longer), and the playroom with all the Little People to line up. Beebe has Con (I could go on but really that is most important thing and I think it is the same for Con). Kim can get Adam to give her kiss every time we see her (yes, she does bribe him but my little boy who only gives kisses when he thinks you don't one, gives Kim one every time). Katie takes them to the doughnut store, up to the park and Wal-Mart. Laura has made CDs that Adam loves to sing along to and we are working on having him allow the rest of us to sing along and dance too. They LOVE when they can see pictures/video clips of their cousins/kids on the computer, so those of you that do that, just keep doing it. I know that being the "favorite aunt" is not as important to you as it is to me. I love that everybody loves my boys, do things to "be the favorite" and really it is just because you love them (just like I love your kids and like to do things with/for them). Oh, Faunties (faux aunties) have a place with the boys' favorites too.

I'm glad to see you're on board with the "faunties." Will you tell your boys that if they told me I was their favorite aunt, they would get rootbeer FLOATS.
I am a big fan of being a fauntie. Hyrum does prefer Phil, ALWAYS. He likes us too, but it is his Fauntie Phil that he loves most. I'm okay with it though. I'm Murphy and Emily's favorite and that's just fine with me.
Just so you know, April is pulling the same kinds of thing as Jill to be Derek's favorite Auntie. Maybe their in cahoots.
Cute glasses! My kids are lucky...they just have my sister who spoils them all the time. We never see my half-sister and Craig's sisters are all far away... So that makes Aunt Meggie the favorite!!! And she's coming in less than two weeks! (I'm not counting down or anything....) :)
jill is getting so BEAUTIFUL!
Adam is really cute in those glasses and I love the picture of Austin. I don't know if my kids have a favorite aunt - probably whoever is playing with them at the time.
I thought of Harry Potter when I saw that picture come up. I don't wish glasses on anyone. I have had to wear them since 1st grade. Thank goodness for contacts. Aunts Rock!!
Adorable!! Drew just went for his first eye appt and can't stop talking about getting glasses next week. Hope he's as cute as Adam!!
I LOVE the title of this post...and thank you Heather
