Here Comes the Bride

Since her Grandma is getting married soon, Lizzy's decided to get in on the wedding action.

I'll give you a tip though Mom. Once you are done smearing your wedding veil with cracker crumbs, don't leave it at the foyer door. The ants will find it. All 5,000,000 of them.

Stuff that belongs in the Bath Tub

Hearing the pitter patter of feet in this household means "someone" is rearranging. It's always interested to give it a few minutes and then check go check on her creation. Today we are stockpiling for tonight's bath.



Stuff that belongs in a bath tub (according to a 1 yr old)

Baby dolls
Sports Illustrated
Good News
United News and Prophecy
Shirts
Jeans
Tractors
BibsBaby wipes
Felt Animals
Book cases
Nasal Aspirtator
Books
the list goes on...
Amazingly enough, this picture was only taken at the halfway point. As I type this, the tub is 3/4 full of what use to be put away.

The final outcome:

Drinking the Night Away

Shea, save your shot glasses (and votive candle holders). They come in handy later.

Master of the Spoon

Okay, well maybe Apprentice to the Master...
or Intern to the Apprentice to the Master...
or more appropriately, Beginning Helper of the Intern to the Apprentice to the Master.

But it's a start and she likes it!

A Real Sweetheart

This sweet little girl loves to give kisses and hugs. They just tend to look a little more like headbutts. But everyone has a little WWF in them, right?

I know a girl who likes to fly high.

I know a sister who has made a business from that!

I know a girl who loves to pile her bed high with stuffed animals.

I remember another sister who at the age of 6 didn't have room to sleep on her queen size bed because it was so full of stuffed animals.

You Know You're Pregnant When...

You find yourself eating leftover pineapple by light of the microwave at 5 in the morning.

It's not as nice as candlelight, but there's still something cozy about it.

Dandies!

Have you taken time to stop and smell...

and pick....

and eat your favorite flowers today?

The Little Carpenter that Could-Part II

After a "little" help from Papa, the bunk house turned out pretty nice. It's not done yet, but that's Mom's fault. She still needs a measuring tape, level, and square to finish this baby.

But that won't stop Ms. Hospitality, here to say "Welcome to MY house!"

Won't you come in?

What?! You're leaving already!? No, stay for more, more, more, mor, mor, mor, mor.....

The Little Carpenter that Could

Power tools and toddlers are a match made in heaven!!

But after all that sorting and drilling, she needed a break!

She was also under the impression that since the screws were in a bucket-which sorta looks like a big cup-you can drink them. Didn't work for some reason...

So after eating half the screws, she had to go back to the drawing board to figure out how to salvage this project.

And of course, every good carpenter cleans up after herself.
