Early birthday present for Sam…
Posted by: | CommentsWe decided this year that Sam has enough toys and that his extended family will more than likely fill the gap. Holly met the local artist that did the painting and he did a fantastic job. We couldn’t keep Sam out the room for more than 20 minutes at a time because he wanted to see how things were progressing.
It will be an awful shame when we have to repaint his walls when he gets older.
How projects get started…
Posted by: | CommentsHolly: Would you like to put crown molding in here?
Me: Nope, not really.
Holly: Will you please put crown molding in here?
Me: Nope, not really.
Holly: Let me rephrase, when you put crown molding….
And that’s how a home improvement project gets started in our house.
Making sure it’s right…
Posted by: | CommentsEvan was sure he could tell us what we were doing wrong.
Our new family member…
Posted by: | CommentsOur newest family member. We haven’t finalized what her name is, but it’s a toss up between Tina (her name at the pound) and Sally (from Cars).
This is how it should be…
Posted by: | CommentsI put our Saturday morning errands on hold after Sam and Evan continued to play together like this for almost an hour.
New pics on Flickr
Posted by: | CommentsThere are some new pictures from the storms we had last night up on Flickr: Link. Pretty sure we lost the entire garden due to hail and the fins on our A/C unit look like Evan beat it with Sam’s baseball bat. Otherwise no other damage that I’ve been able to see. Sample pic from last night’s storm is below:
How I spent my Memorial Day weekend…
Posted by: | CommentsSometimes you want to be able to brag to your coworkers about the cool things you did over your summer holiday weekend. Here’s what I did last weekend.
And I can honestly say I feel I topped every story I’ve heard so far with this. The boys loved the addition (at least for the first day or two) and the neighbor kids are playing over here a little more often. Which is part of the reason we did it. If all the neighbor kids are here, that means I don’t need to worry as much about where Sam or Evan may have wandered off to.
That’s a win-win in my book!
Dad’s little helper…
Posted by: | CommentsEvan wanted to make sure he helped with the construction of the new add-on to the swingset. So when I had to bring some more wood to the back yard, he was right there helping too.
