Ethan lost his 2nd tooth today! When he lost his first tooth he had no idea it was loose and I had been noticing that this tooth was loose for a few days and I don’t think he realized until I pointed it out yesterday. That was a mistake because he wanted to know “exactly [...]
I can’t decide whether I should be proud or a little disturbed about the other nights adventure. Ben fell asleep on our bed while Ethan and I were out working on the deck. The problem was that he locked the door…and I had no idea where the key was. In fact, I had forgotten that [...]
Last night Heather and Jamie left to run some errands and the boys and I went to work on the deck. While I was putting up the first railing Ethan and Ben spent a few minutes playing in the water tables before they got too hot and decided to go swimming in the pool. They [...]
Here are the boys playing candy land, notice anything weird? Ben is in his usual underwear only uniform and Ethan is in his now favorite outfit of no shirt with pants (its hot out for pants but he likes to be hot he says). Ethan is such a sweet brother that he took a bite [...]
At first I had no idea what we’d do for the “SKY” themed Unplugged Project this week and then I thought that the boys were so into planes since the model demo and big airshow we went to last month so we decided on paper airplanes. I downloaded some plane plans online but the standard [...]
Jamie is 2 years old today! I can’t really believe it but just look at how big she has gotten. Here she is the day she was born. This is her first birthday. For breakfast we gave her a cinamon roll with a candle to start off the day since the boys woke up asking [...]
I am not super patriotic or anything but I thought it would be fun and gender neutral since its a party for a boy and a girl. So next Saturday we are having Ben’s 4th and Jamie’s 2nd Red, White & Blue Birthday Party. I’m keeping things simple and not going to go crazy so [...]
I go through lazy stay at home phases and I figure thats good, we save gas and aren’t running around so much! This week I went to a pregnancy visit with my midwife on Monday (all is well, I’m almost 23 weeks and feeling good) and then Tuesday we met some friends for a few [...]
Henrietta is our only chicken that seems to enjoy being picked up by the kids and that is full grown and laying eggs. She makes these cute little eggs about 2 out of 3 days. I just saved up 8 eggs to hardboil yesterday. We had quite a few that I let the kids collect [...]
John ALWAYS has some project going and this time its a big one! He has been working hard every day after work and weekends to build our pool deck and its starting to come along very nicely. The curved angle around the pool and figuring out just how we wanted things were the big things [...]
