Ammon is constantly making and building things. This is a net made with paper and tape and a chopstick and maybe dental floss?
I could eat her up.
T
looooves her brothers.
This was a self photo by Noah.
Another picture by Noah, because Travis balanced the broom and obviously it was a picture moment. You can't even tell it's standing by itself in the picture, though. What a talented husband I have. He can do all kinds of cool and crazy things.
Ammon's new obsession is wanting to sleep in weird places. He had built a fort in his room and take apart mattresses, etc, and asked if he could sleep in it. I gave in, and Noah came down later to
ge the camera and said "
Ammon is the deepest sleeper I have ever met. He is sounds asleep with a mattress on his head. He didn't even wake up when I picked the mattress up and dropped it again!" I went up and moved the mattress off his head.
This is my only picture from the pinewood derby, until I get copies from my nice friend who let me take her camera and go crazy (after my battery died).
Kaden got second place! That was kind of fun and unexpected, especially since I let
Trav go
tdy before he put the wheels on the cars and I had to do it. Scary.
My birthday flower from my awesome childhood and lifelong friend, Val. Oh if I could be a better and more considerate birthday person.
Trav was still in Florida on my birthday, and I was totally fine with the normal day that birthdays are anymore. But a friend surprised me with a birthday cake, 2 of my cute boys hid under the table making
bday pictures for me to hang on my door until morning, and Noah got up early to make breakfast for me (but then felt like throwing up and had to go back to bed--he DIDN'T throw up, though, so yet another birthday blessing...), and 3 wonderful friend arranged a babysitter and took me out to lunch. It was a pleasantly wonderful day..
This was a less wonderful moment when I was cooking too many things at once and thought the timer went off for the soup, and an hour and a half later, wondered wear my batch of bread was. Oh yeah, it was still in the oven getting hard as a rock. My very smart and resourceful kids got the idea that the middle would still be edible though, so we scooped out the middles to eat with soup that night. That made me feel a little better.
The gingerbread houses we made for
Kaden's class. Kind of strange that they were decorating them in January (actually Feb 3rd) but they still had a blast doing it.
