Pillow Pet

I swear we give our daughter a pillow at night.

Ever seen the commercials for the "Pillow Pet", I think Addie has. (Most unoriginal jingle ever. "It's a pillow... it's a pet... it's a pillow pet".)

Yep Mandy, that's the stuffed turtle you gave baby Addie because she looked like a turtle.

Easy To Please

I asked her if she'd rather have Halloween candy or hard boiled eggs. She didn't even have to think about it. If you want to make this girl happy, make her some eggs.

She only had 4 eggs and 1/2 an egg salad sandwich today.

Happy Halloween

Another great Halloween. Kids had tons of fun!

My very own little unicorn and dragon.

Thank you for the nice, warm, free costumes Kim and Jenni! Almost looks like I planned their costumes to match! Glad it worked out!

Happy Kids

Happy Halloween Kids

Happy when Mom bakes

Happy to make a mess

Happy to make noise
(Addie calls it "parade" time)

Happy to give Mom a headache

Nap Time

So this has become Addie's new daily nap time. She spends it "building houses" for all her stuffed animals. Hey, if it means that she's quietly in her room everyday... build on Addie, build on.

Monkey Boy

Carter has always loved to climb. When we got bunk beds, I decided not to put up the ladder for obvious reasons. I should have figured that he'd watch how his older sister goes up and follow. I'm trying to not be the overprotective Mom, but this just makes me nervous. What to do now? Trust that he won't fall or take the bunk beds apart?

What a Waste.

What a waste of perfectly gorgeous eyelashes.

Why is it that the boys always get the long ones?

I wish I had an awesome camera that could do these eyelashes justice. I'm seriously jealous.

I thought I'd just let you know that I'm a sucker for this kid.

Addie even thinks that he is pretty cool. She'll even read him books.

Dad's been a goner ever since he learned he was having a son. Carter has him wrapped around his little finger.

He is one happy little man... with perfect eyelashes.
