Random Cuteness... continued!

Daddy taking care of his handsome boys...
and letting Momma get some much needed alone time!


It was Valentine's Day... and Allen was oh-so-smitten when he found out Moe-Joe had sent him and his brother a Valentine's Day package.


In case you couldn't tell,
that is supposed to be his happy face!


Looks like someone made out big-time for V-Day!
Moe-Joe sure does love that cute little boy.


Speaking of cute little boys...
Allen wasn't the only one who got some of Moe-Joe's love.


"Don't worry about me guys... I'm fine. No really, I'm good... just go ahead and do your thing. I'll be right here if you need me!"


Pot-Belly Jack and his skinny big brother having fun in the tub.


Jumpin' Jack Flash!


Sticker on his forehead and all...
that boy loves diggin' in the dirt!


Just the way Jei & I like our evenings...
Jack asleep and Allen watching cartoons!


Sure wish they made an adult version of those...
cause that thing looks super comfy!


Love it when he watches his cartoons this way...
and then turns to smile at you after the funny parts!


Feels like they're this small for only just a day or two.


Jei trying her best to get that little Chubster to smile.


Eating a box of doughnuts while watching his cartoons...
now that's some good parenting right there!


Napping in our king-size bed...
you'd think they'd have plenty of room.


Love it when your favorite outfits from the first one...
come back out and are put on the second one!
Love my little Crab-Man!


Love those sweet little toes!


Won't be long before we'll be needing
a second set of headphones!


Unlike his Daddy, Allen doesn't mind sharing
his popcorn with his Mommy & Brother.


Not much of a winter here in SoCal...
but it's always good to be prepared.


"Seriously? He's really going to sit here
and make me watch this garbage?!"


Laundry time!!!


One of the most rarest sights you'll ever see... No, not Allen napping, but me with BOTH Key-Dens happily snuggling together on my lap! Simply amazing!!!


"Someone call my name???"


You better believe Allen gets his hands dirty when it comes
to making chocolate covered strawberries for dessert!


Finally brought out the jungle mat for Jack to play on...
and he falls asleep.


Always eager to lend a hand...
when it comes to helping Mommy in the kitchen.


Likewise... when Daddy needs help out in the yard!


Monkey Boy doesn't last very long sitting by himself before a complete meltdown ensues... so we have to be on the ball with our picture taking, cute pose or not.


Once again, some superb parenting... dinner in front of the computer/television screen. (TV junkies!) I'm sure our parents are very proud!


An artist in the family perhaps???


Ming: Jack's Guardian Angel!




Looks like these three party-animals
had a rough night!?


It's not often we can get them to nap at the same time... so when they do, we smile, try hard not to stare, and shake our heads in disbelief at how much they've grown! 


Skype'ing with family always produces the happiest faces!


Jealous that his little brother was getting all the attention...
he totally photo-bombed him and his Wela!


Don't worry... he was surprisingly comfortable and just about the only way I could get the little guy to stop crying! Hey - whatever works, right?!


Nothing like a warm cup of joe on a cool morning.


Typical contractor... no shirt and saggy jeans!


On a warm day, Jack prefers his shirt...
well, on a different part of his body!

Random Cuteness (part 21)

Okay... so if you haven't noticed by now, there've been some changes around here since the last Random Cuteness post. Ming & Bing are still around and are as cute as ever... and while Allen Jess is getting bigger & older, he is still super cute. But the cuteness level around here completely went through the roof when Jack was born! And since then, there's been just an absolute ton of cuteness going on... so much so that there's just no way I could fit all of the past three/four months into one post! So keep an eye out for more random cuteness... but until then, enjoy the pics... especially the ones of this happy little fella.


"You eye-ballin' me, Daddy?!?"


Jack's head was (is) big... but just not quite big enough for Wela's custom beanie she made him to fit nice and snug. But as you can see, I don't think he seemed to mind all that much... just as long as it was soft and warm.


And if it wasn't his beanie that didn't fit,
it was his outfits!


Beanie problem solved! Wela knitted another one...
this time it fit like a glove.


I know kids are like a sponge... but I didn't think Jack would try whistling so soon after hearing me do it!


We never said our first was the brightest kid on the block...
but he sure does make us laugh - our little Space Cadet!


Daddy loved taking care of his newborn son...
especially when he wasn't awake!


It's a bird...
It's a plane...
No, it's... a not-so-happy Super Jack!!!


It took some time for Allen to warm up to Jack,
but it wasn't long before he was being a sweet big brother!  


Apparently Jack wasn't messing around when he said
he was the new 'man-of-the-house' and demanded the remote!


With a new baby in the house...
it was quite apparent that Allen felt a little left out!


"Hmmm... I wonder what's gonna be for breakfast?"


Can't get enough of that big ole Bubba smile!


Sometimes in trying to please Allen...
poor little Jack has to take a back seat.


Such a good Momma... letting Jack fall asleep first,
before she immediately followed suit!


Like they say... if he wasn't eating or crying,
then he was definitely sleeping.


Jack's first bath... and boy did he need it!


Allen was so sweet...
and enjoyed helping Momma clean his brother.


Still so hard to believe Allen was once the size of Jack
in the not so distant past. My how time flies!


A good breakfast Obi Wan must eat.


"Now if I could just remember
where Daddy put all those Newcastles!?!"


Allen sees Bing go inside boxes all the time...
so he finally decided to see what all the fuss was about!


Who needs a dishwasher when you've got this cute little guy?


Allen feels like such a big boy
when he tries on his Daddy's flip-flops.


The new Apple Laptop sure is cute...
but goes into sleep mode way too easily!


Speaking of sleep...
these two definitely needed some!


When you have way too much to do and no time to do it in,
you learn to adapt, improvise, and overcome!


No matter how hard Jack pleaded or how nice he asked,
Allen refused to let him help with his puzzle.


So I think the consensus is that Allen looks like an Etheridge...
and Jack looks like a Valenzuela! What do you think???


"My Momma says I'm chubby!"


Ole Skinny Boy is happy as can be
when he's putting together his puzzles.


Two of the best lookin' little boys I've ever seen!


It doesn't get any sillier than when bath time comes around!


With Jack finally asleep...
Ming & I were free to peruse the 'Cat Fancy' chat forums online!  


Cuteness Level: 11


Showing Allen how to climb up to get toys from the top shelf...
was probably not the best idea.


With his big chunky legs, Jack just might be the opposite of Allen...
and walk super early!?
