This and that!

Just a little this and that to catch up on what has been going on around here!

The other day while bringing up the mail I was keeping my eyes on the trees. We don't see Hootie and/or Blowfish around much this time of year, we hear them but usually farther into the woods. Anyhoooo today I was looking up (sort of a habit the last few years :) looking for them and to the east of the house I was surprised to find they were both sitting hanging on for dear life on a really windy day!!

Gpa and Lukas worked on a little project the other day. I guess Luks wanted to use gpa's drill so they made TREE ART!! I LOVE it. He can remove and replace sticks as he likes. :)

Ok so I put these pictures up about a month ago and had nothing but problems trying to edit the post.......and it ticked me off. Needless to say i got off and haven't tried again, I had had it! Well after a ton of grief from a few people I decided I would try again.... And nope it wants to get me going again. I can't change anything!!

SO on that note I will post this and try again with a whole new one ASAP!

A few weeks ago at lake Michigan!

I took the following pictures that were here when I started typing this and

NOW HAVE DISSAPEARED!!! Trust me they were REALLY pretty!!!

Miss Haven chimes in!!!

Hello!

So, I was informed today that on occasion gma slacks on the blog and it is up to us to fill in.

Well, guess I will give it a try, OH MAN!

Today was my first time to go with big brother to gmas house for the day!!I put on my best "aren't I the sweetiest" face for her!!

I guess this is a toy my brother used to play with when he was my age, sooooo long ago! I will admit it was fun!

After a little of of that I decided that a little snooze was called for! Gma said I am a real cutie .....:) !

After a little refresh it was back to playing!! And just being CUTE!!! Mommy sent along a bunch of really cute clothes for me but gma let me hang out in the jammies all day long!!

Lukas tried to warn me about gma and her camera and he is right....she takes a LOT of pictures and she gets close and that LIGHT is really BRIGHT!!!

Fine I will just try to ignore her until I am able to crawl away!!

When I had enough laying around I decided to sit up for a little while.

(gma side note here, when she is laying in her boppie she lifts her head and pulls up already!!!)

I am really proud of myself!!

Aunt Yayo,...yup that is what I am going to call her...because Lukas has been calling her that lately!! hehehe,..... anyhooo aunt Yayo came by after work so I filled her in on all the things I did today!

And it begins.......this women sure does like moooching on my face!! :) I really LOVE her.

I would ask for some help here but from what I have been told by big brother this is just the way things go here at gmas house!! We get to play and rest, but there is a cost........pictures, pictures, and more pictures....then a whole lot of mooching, smooching, tweeking, and lovin!!

I guess it is all worth it though!! :) :)

Lukas catches up!!

OK, so since gma NEVER seems to blog I guess it is up to me to do it!!!

It really has been busy and I am not happy that gma isn't letting you all in in the action!!

So, enough picking on gma!

Last week it was my daddy's 30Th birthday.

That is right he is the big

3-0 ......whatever that means!! It is something I kept hearing people say! :)

We had a little celebration at the g-rents and I got to pick out the cake!

Cool isn't it!?!?!

Best part was when we got to light the candles.....Holy Moly that is a lot of light!!

Daddy was really surprised!

Then I think it is possible that he was a little scared!!! :)

Because of all the smoke and the threat of FIRE daddy asked me to help him blow out the candles!! Funny thing is some of them kept re-lighting!!
It was a lot of fun...and I got to help throw the candles in a bowl of water!!

Best part is that I got to wear the cool YUCKY spider that decorated the cake!
And of course being able to sing and wish Daddy a VERY Happy Birthday!!!
I REALLY LOVE HIM!!
HE is the VERY BEST daddy any little boy and girl could ask for!!

Anyways right after that weekend the sad news was that it was time for mommy to head back to work. On the other hand that meant I did get to spend time at gmas all by myself for a bit!!
So what happens at gmas is supposed to stay at gmas, but you know me I like to share!! :)
I have been told that I can be a little compulsive when it comes to certain things......like a couple other people I know.....anyhooooo, one of those things is worrying that some of my trains were a little dirty from all the diesel fuel!!!

Gma let me use her bathroom sink to clean them off!
That soap pump thing is really hard work!

After I was done I made sure to dry them off!!

I also made sure to dry my sweatshirt so it would be nice and warm!

It was a lot of work cleaning all those diesel trains....that and when I came to gmas this day I was not feeling very well. In fact by the afternoon I was running a 103.3 degree temp. It felt good to take a little snooze!

And to my surprise when gpa came home he let me cuddle up on his lap!!!!

YUP, I know...SHOCKING isn't it!!???!!??

He really LOVES me!

The next day after a trip to the doctors I headed back up to gmas for some fun!

In case none of you have heard of water gems let me tell you they are FUN! I had her pour them into a couple of containers! Then got some of my diggers out and went to town!!

They are really squishy and lots of fun to roll around...here I put some in a Ziploc and tried to keep them balanced on my knees!

Fun to fell them under your toes!

They bounce too. We played with them in the hall where the light was shining from the skylights and they were cool to move around and look at!!

A little later in the day I sort of dripped a little orange juice on my tag and shirt and gma made me wash it myself!! The nerve !!

Alright.....if I have to be honest it was way too much fun!! I like playing in the sink!

For safety sake I had to make sure all the lint was cleaned out of the dryer!

Then got it all put back together!

Set the timer and got the clothes dried!

Trust me when I tell you that this isn't all that has been going on around here. I will harass gma a little and get her to update her blog and tell you all about my little sissy!! She is really falling down on the job!! :)

See ya all soon!
