Matt's New Baby!

Matt got a kayak! He brought it home yesterday. Who is ready to go out with him? Not me! Too cold! I don't think I will be getting in any time soon, but he is super excited and I am happy for him! The kids had fun crawling all around in it and pulling at the strings. Anna is very interested in the fishing that goes on in our neighborhood lake so I think a father-daughter fishing trip is needed!

Our Frugal Fotography Session

Friday we had a photo session with Frugal Fotography. We had fun and actually got a few pics with all of us looking at the camera with a smile on our face!!

A Little Thanksgiving..

I was too lazy to load the pictures one by one, so here is a little collage. We don't have very many Thanksgiving pictures because the kids were pretty terrible. There was never a moment when we thought, "Oh, that is sooo cute! Grab the camera!". They both had colds pretty much the whole time we were out of town. Matt and I would like to blame their behavior on that, but this week the colds are gone and they are still acting rotten...

I have a new signature and banner! I am learning how to photoshop!

I Got It!!

It is a long story of how I got it, but I finally got Matt to let me have someone clean out the front beds and add tons of mulch! They even cleaned around the two trees in the front yard and mulched around them. I. Love. It. And he may never admit it, but he loves it too!

Okay it really doesn't look like much in these pictures because it is a dreary day, but it looks great in person!

Bathtime...

Bathtime at our house last night was interesting to say the least. I got Anna in the tub and called for Sam to come in so I could strip him and put him in. When he finally came running in to the bathroom I guess my back was turned because when I looked back at the tub this is what I saw...

I then yelled for Matt to come help hold him in the air while I pull his pants and his diaper off. Matt came in and as I'm pulling off Sam's pants I mention what a bummer it would be if our little prankster had a poopy diaper. I probably don't even have to tell you the rest, OF COURSE THE DIAPER WAS POOPY!! That's how things work for us!! We had a good laugh on that one, Sam definitely keeps us on our toes!

Is That My Hairbrush?

I never posted pics of the kids in their Halloween costumes. Anna Banana was Minnie Mouse, and Sambo was dressed as Captain America. They both actually loved to wear their costumes which shocked me because I thought Sam would be ripping his off at the first chance he got! I came across these pictures today and had to post them. Sam is running around in his outfit, looking to save the world with...my hairbrush! I have to say though, after looking at this picture closer, I agree with Sam. Anna could use a "rescue" :) Must have been a bad hair day for her!
