You know your house is dirty when...

You know your house is dirty when your four year old tells you that you need to let the dog in to clean all the food off the floor, then in the same sentence she looks out the window, and excitedly says, "Look mom it's snowing!" but it's not, there's just little drops of milk splashed all over the window. I really should get off the computer and go clean.

Like Father Like Daughter, Oh Deer!

Brady and Brynlee - Our House Deer Hunt Every Night

I don't know who has more fun on these hunts, Brady or Brynlee?

His Old Self

I think its safe to say Nash has made a full recovery from getting his tonsils removed. Today he has been back to his usual business of emptying cupboards, unrolling rolls of toilet paper, dragging shoes around, emptying the garbage cans, and making sure all of the toys are out. It's a big job, but somebody has got to do it.

I just have to add a disclaimer because when Brady saw all the things Nash has been doing today he asked, "Where were you? Weren't you watching him?" So if you're wondering the same thing, Yes I was home, and yes I was sort of watching him, I took the pictures after all! I think I know what he's doing so I'll feed the baby or clean up a mess and before I'm half way through he's into something else. You may also be asking why I don't keep the bathroom doors shut? Same reason there was yucky stuff in the toilet while Nash was playing in it, sometimes Brynlee forgets. It's really quite amazing because Nash is super fast and super quiet. I'm sure that someday he's going to be able to clean up messes as fast as he makes them right?

This picture has nothing to do with the messes, I just like it!

Ridge

Two dimpled hands,

Ten tiny toes,

One rosebud mouth,

One snubby nose.

A pair of bright eyes,

Twin pools of blue,

Sunshine and showers

Reflecting though.

A soft gurgling laugh,

An innocent smile,

A good healthy yell

Once in a while.

I'm lost in wonder

Of life's greatest joy

As I gaze on the face

Of my wee sleeping boy.

3 Weeks

Our little Ridge is growing so fast! He is already 3 weeks old. He is such a wonderful baby. He is very strong, and alert and he loves to grunt and wiggle around. He is a sweet little man!

He is very animated when he cries.

Nash likes to lay his head on his little brother and give him loves.

Bryn is 4!

Happy Birthday Little Princess!

Thanks for being such a good girl! You're such a great helper and we appreciate how you are always looking out for everyone! Hope you get feeling better really soon! Love you!

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween!

We had quite the frightful Halloween, well at least there was a lot of moaning and groaning around the house. Brynlee and Nash had a tough day and just wanted to stay home and not Trick-or-Treat. Brynlee had fun helping me answer the door and after a couple hours she felt good enough to Trick-or-Treat at a couple of the neighbors.
