Warner 9 Months

By
Whew. Sorry guys I just needed a mini-break from blogging there. I got really ambitious and thought I could do all these great things with blogging but then I realized after hours and failed attempts at changing my background template and adding a facebook like button and all sorts of awesome things that I got burnt out on anything tech savvy. The the battery in the computer stopped taking a charge so I couldn't have blogged if I wanted to. Then when we got it back I just couldn't drag myself to write anything. I can't do it all. So I'm just going to do what I originally set out to do which was a blog about our normal, boring life. Plus the unexpected adventures that come along. I've been taking pictures even if I haven't been blogging so here is the biggest one of February. 

Warner is now 9 months old!

He is all sorts of active now. Crawling, climbing, pulling up on furniture, opening cabinets, cruising along anything stable. Eating table foods cut up very small including cheerios, carrots and beans. He loves yogurt and whatever we are eating. He calls for "Mama" when he is upset. He is starting to wave and point to what he wants. He growls like a pitbull. He stands at the side of the tub and screeches to get in. He loves his brothers and anything having to do with them. He loves being outside and trying to pull the dogs hair. He doesn't like getting his face wiped or his finger nails cut. He has two teeth, is 20 pounds and 28 1/4" long. Almost time to move him into the convertible carseat. 
Apparently he was also not too happy about taking pictures this day.

Do's and Don'ts of Birthdays and Parties

By
My oldest son just turned 7 and since we are watching every cent going out I tried to be as creative as possible when coming up with the birthday of a life time (until next year).  Do: Make Them Feel Important Without Spending Money Waffles with chocolate syrup for breakfast are ok on a special day like this! (I love using a pizza cutter to slice waffles and pancakes for the little guys, especially Lincoln who is still learning to feed himself with a fork) Measuring on the wall of fame, we only write on it once a year now to make it exciting. Dylan grew about 3.25 inches in one year! This momma gets tired quicker than ever being 30+ weeks pregnant and chasing after a rowdy toddler so I didn't do the fanciest cakes (remember the volcano cake from birthday 4 or the mint chocolate chip cupcakes from last year) but I did find some cute stickers that have been in the house for years, put a matching one on both sides of a flat tooth pick and voila, cupcakes to compete with the best ...

To Infinity and Beyond

By
Well beyond five years that is. February 22 marks our first date and somehow Shane even remembered that. Since I feel like a crumb-bum of a wife lately I set up a special little thing to show him how much these last five years have actually meant to me. (I get that it isn't our wedding anniversary but any day can be special so I wanted to make this special too) I wrote him a little love letter and put out five things that are meaningful in our relationship together, quite the mishmash if you ask me, but it works. In no particular order: 1. Motley Crue - We we to our first concert together over the summer to see Shane's favorite band and I got to get my 80's on while he got to relive the glory days. 2. The Spiderwick Chronicles - We went to see this movie with our nephews for our first official date. I think it's sweet that now the boys watch it all the time. 3. Coffee - We have shared many conversations, hours, and events all while drinking coffee. We both love it ...

Blending In, Lazy Fall Days and a Birthday Too

By
 I have a picture of Dylan taking a nap in Daddy's camouflage a year or two ago. This year I thought it would be fun to get one of Lincoln in the same pile of clothes. I love how all three of these were taken within a few seconds of each other but his facial expressions are so different.  Today when Dylan got home from school he was grumpy and said he didn't feel too well so he zonked out for a nap on the couch while I also got Lincoln down for a nap too. Danielle stayed after school for some help so I actually got part of dinner ready and cleaned out the dish washer. Of course I didn't get to finish this before the little one woke up, but hey I had a small moment of silence complete with a picture of a one handed baby and a little boy turning into a little man with a little smear of pink frosting on his cheek from a girls' birthday party at kindergarten. Danielle is 17 today! I can hardly believe it. This picture was taken a week or two ago by Danielle's frien...
