Baby Toother

Proudly presenting Anna's first tooth!

Michael has been calling her "Toother." She's had a cold and I felt a little bump on her gums, but I didn't know it would come so fast. She is the most cheerful baby I've ever met. She laughs when I clean out her nose! She brings a smile to our faces all day long. I've had her to the doctor twice to check for ear infections but I guess she's been pulling at here ears because she's been teething. Hopefully she'll be feeling better soon.

In other news, here we are making acorn men last Saturday. The boys got the idea out of a book about Autumn and have been asking to make them since last winter. We had to wait for the acorns to grow, make a trip to the craft store for pipe cleaners and Styrofoam, and F I N A L L Y they were ready to make! They have pin-heads because the only acorns I could find here are these tall, skinny ones.

And this video is just the boys being fun. Please don't listen to me trying to get Anna to smile. It's just embarrassing.

Hot Wheels

Look who's got a hot new ride! We found this bike on Craigs*list. It's one size too big but I think it's' going to work anyway. Josh put the training wheels on this morning before work and the boys are having so much fun! They are looking WAY too big on it. There are a few bike paths around here that they've been riding on their tricycles but Sam's knees are about hitting the handle bars on his trike and they go so slowly for how fast they pedal so we're on to the exciting world of two-wheelers!

Free Time

I've heard working moms ask stay at home moms, "What do you do all day?"
Well, sometimes we do this:
Making gingerbread men! After Christmas, but still a fun wintertime activity.
We had just watched an episode of "Little B*ear" where he made them with his friend and her grandmother. When they weren't looking, the gingerbread men got up and ran away! Good thing ours didn't!
They were fun to decorate . . .

and eat!
(Michael is in his "Fireman S*am" outfit from Aunt Debbie.)
Then there's the dress-up obsession. The latest is Batman and Robin.
The Dynamic Duo.
That nickname might just stick to these guys!
Come play with us any time! You never know what we'll be up to!
