Zoe's Announcement

She just informed me that she loves Justin Bieber and...Michael.

I didn't know Michael was a rock star, but apparently Zoe thinks he is!

Finally Done

I've been working on putting Lindsey's shower together since the day she told me she was pregnant. I went even more crazy when she found out she's having a girl. This is going to be the pinkest shower we've ever seen!

I put these onesies together to use as decoration as well as a gift. I'm not thrilled with either of them, but I do think they're cute. They turned out ok for a first attempt. My plan is to hang them on a clothesline with some burp rags and other onesies. I really hope it turns out cute.
I think I would shorten the black & white skirt a little bit and make the tutu fuller. I just hope they look better on the baby than they do on the hanger!

Fun Toy

I had vacuumed the house earlier in the day, but since Wyatt has gotten into eating goldfish I needed to get all the crushed fish out of the carpet again before bed. Glenn was helping out and discovered that the vacuum belt had broken. He made a run to Walmart to get a belt. He came home with a new vacuum. Apparently we can only get belts for that vacuum at Sears. We don't have one of those anywhere close to us so a new vacuum was better than waiting for the filth to pile up until we could get to Sears.

Wyatt was loving the new purchase...well the box anyway!
Hello, Mr. Naughty!

Us South Park Style

One of my Facebook friends had a link to this site where you can create your own South Park characters. It was kind of fun. I have never watched South Park, but the characters a cute. Zoe helped a little, but most of suggestions didn't make the final cut. She's a bit too silly for me!

How?

People may wonder how in the world anyone could get upset with this adorably innocent little face... To these people I just have to say: come visit us for an afternoon and listen to her scream at her siblings, ignore her mother and do this to the playroom... She is a loud destructive tornado! She can completely undo everything I do in nothing flat!
Zoe, you make me crazy, but I love you so much! You are a joy and a blessing and I can't imagine what my life would be without you in it. Your spunky sass is just too much and you make me laugh every day!

Dump Truck & Necklace Soup

Little Mister decided to completely unload my basket of dirty clothes onto the floor, sit in it and make a delicious soup in the back of his Tonka truck! He was really into his stirring. Too cute!Checking it's progress...It needs a stir...Oh yeah! Looking good...Zoe couldn't stand not being in the pictures... Two goofy monkeys sitting in a pile of laundry!

Baby, It's Cold INSIDE

We heard strong howling winds all night long. I was so afraid we would wake up to several feet of snow. We got just a light dusting of snow, but the wind was crazy! By the time Maggie left for the bus it was -24 degrees. I really wanted to keep her home instead of making her wait for the bus, but I have no way to get her to school. I'm assuming she made it safely. Very shortly after sending her off the temps dropped to -32. At least they will keep the kids inside at school today.

When I came back from a bathroom run I found Zoe climbing on the stool to get her hat and gloves. She was THAT cold even INSIDE with the heater running.She was so cold she even had to find her snow bootsShe was striking the cutest pose when out of no where she got whacked by a Dr. Pepper bottle. You gotta love little brothers!!
Even though Zoe tortures Wyatt constantly she really does LOVE this little man!And he adores his sisterWe have really loved watching the movie "How to Train Your Dragon" . When I found this hat in Wal Mart I couldn't resist buying it. It doesn't usually stay on very long, but he's so cute in it. Our little "Toothless"!He's not toothless at all. He is now sporting 12 teeth! If only he would use them to eat with. He just isn't very interested in food. His diet consists of pizza and goldfish. I try to get him to eat everything we eat, but he refuses and just throws it on the floor. We were really hoping he would be a good eater. Does this mean we have to try again?

New Classes, New Teachers

Maggie's new teacher is Sister Nancy Bowns. I haven't had the chance to get to know her very well, but hopefully we can get to know her this year while Maggie is in her class.This year Zoe graduated from Nursery to Sunbeams! She was so excited to FINALLY be in Sunbeams. She got an amazing teacher named Sister Nicole Hall. She happens to be my Visiting Teaching companion so I know from personal experience that she's amazing. Zoe has so much fun in her class. The nursery leaders really miss her. They are always telling me that she was the best singer and now their singing time isn't nearly as fun.Wyatt is still too young to go to Nursery so he hangs out with me. Well today he was quite literally "hanging out" with Glenn. The Circus...I mean Sundays are fun!! (just ask the people that sit behind us!)
