The end of October and First Snow

I haven't posted in over a week I apologize to my four or five readers. Tiffany had her baby, hooray! Joshua was born on October 25th. He is really cute and Daniel likes to hold him.

Daniel did not grasp the concept of Halloween and mom and dad have eaten most of his candy. He did allow me to take some pictures with his cousins but as you can see from his face he was none too pleased.


But today, it snowed! Daniel loves to go outside so I got us all bundled up (mostly to go out and save my rosemary from freezing to death), and took us outside. It did not go as planned. Daniel was too nervous to walk in the snow and did not want to touch, taste, smell, or sit in the snow. Nor did he want mom to touch the snow. Yet all those things did not deter his obsession to be outside. So we spent about 1/2 hour standing in the snow today.

It was SO cold today! Yeah so Anna wanted to play in the snow today and I have no boots or snow pants for her. What a horrible mother I am. He looks pretty cute just chillin there - not touching the stuff though.

Tiffany's baby is adorable. I can't believe he already was dressed up for Halloween. She is on the ball.
And I am so with Daniel on the snow thing. I am really not into it either!

Ikea beat the rainy day

My kids love the dirt. They love being outside while I try to plant and do everything in the dirt. Alice rolls in, runs in, and eats the dirt. The grossest thing I have found lately is her with her mouth full of mud and a pebble in her hand and big smiles on her face. To beat that I have found her now three times with dirt in the mouth. Yuck! Today it rained. This has got to be the fifteenth day this month that it rained and my kids could not stand it. So eventually I told the kids to get their shoes (which makes Alice run to the door) and that we were going to IKEA. IKEA is a great way to spend the day. Daniel and Alice played in the kids rooms that were set up and ran through that little hole in the wall they have between two of the rooms. They loved it. One of the rooms had a slide in it which Alice discovered that she loved. Down the slide she went, over and over and over again. Then we came home and the crying and tantrums started up right away again. But for those two...

Nothing like people to ruin your day.

Alright so last week we found out that our condo was put up for sale. Jason looked up the sales price, quickly realized that is was pretty low and we feared for the type of people that would be coming through to view our condo, we were right to fear. Usually I am pretty easy going and try to be accommodating but somethings are unbelievable. So these people put in an offer on our home and then the husband wanted to come check it out so their agent and our agent agreed on a time. We thought, okay they'll be here what like a half hour? So Jason and Daniel went to look at homes for us and I stayed here to watch the show. The husband proceeded to test each outlet to see if it was hot, then he was looking in the attic space, then messing with the fuses and air conditioning. He was the first to show up so we thought, ok, this is going to be alright. Ten to fifteen minutes later someone else knocked on the door. There is this lady with three kids and a pizza box. She mumbled some...

Sitting Up

Alice has begun sitting up. She can sit for about a minute on her own and then for about five minutes supported. Grass is also her new favorite thing and she will grab the blanket that she sits on and move it so that she can grab the grass. She can currently pull of fist fulls of grass with no hesitation. Although she did face plant in the grass and decided that the grass was not where her head should be. Daniel loves raspberries. He loves to run outside and pick raspberries straight from the bushes. Then he loves to run around the yard at grandma's house screaming. Alvin the dog is actually more afraid of Daniel than the other way around. Our house is coming along and hopefully within the month so we can get more settled. Yellowstone was a successful trip and our kids had a blast. Daniel could not see out the binoculars so eventually we just started pointed out animals that he could see on his own which were: buffalo. Good things seeing four million buffalo was exciting...
