As a stay at home Mom, there are days where I genuinely have no idea of the date.  Throw in the fact that it was close to sixty degrees today and I'm shocked that I didn't write April on my checks.  Honestly, it made absolutely no sense that today was January 31st!  But you'd better believe we were outside in full force.  We had two different repairs done on the house today, including a duct cleaning that took close to five hours, so we were relegated to our front and back yards.  The kids had a blast swinging, digging in the garden, playing golf, soccer and tag.  Check out little dockie doodle hanging out in his big brothers truck.  If only every winter could be like this..........

Sorry winter, but I really only like the cold and snow for about a day.  Then I'm ready to move onto spring.

I must say, this whole moving thing is definitely starting to feel real.  We have totally cleared out the play room, taken down all our Christmas decorations (usually we like to leave those up for as long as possible) and our garage is full of mismatched furniture.  We have been working but also relaxing and playing this week.  This is the first time that Mike has had two weeks off since he was in college.  We are getting spoiled with all this Daddy time!  Tomorrow we should have some answers, but for now we are getting ready as best as possible.



As you can see we are packing up the furniture in the play room - wait a second!  Is that a baby on the shelf?  Why yes it is!  I heard him fussing in the play room and I walked in to find him.  I looked all around until I realized he had used the boxes to climb up onto the shelf!  Then he got stuck and had to fuss for help.  He's my little monkey!



Dress up is a huge favorite in our house.  Lately Carter has been a soldier/ninja/doctor while Ava prefers the handy-man princess.


Dad, this is how much Carter loves his new hat from you - he wore it to bed!  Sound asleep with the hat still glued to his head. 



Today Carter asked if I would make waffles for breakfast.  This is a pretty big treat in our house, but since we had no big plans I decided to spoil the kids (plus I had a new recipe using whole wheat/sweetened with honey that I wanted to try.)  So I told Carter, I will make you waffles if you give me a hug and tell me how much you love me.  He walked over, gave me a hug and said "Mom I really like you, most of the time."  That stinker!

By the way, Congratulations to Uncle Jay and Aunt Tiffany who got the keys to their new home today!  We can't wait to come and see it!

Dawson's first ride in the wagon as a big boy!  I think he likes it!


Bunny Helmet Head




Dawson at church on Sunday.  I'm a sucker for a cute boy in a polo shirt.


The baby latches on this cabinet were installed incorrectly.  Dawson is the only baby that has figured this out, and is constantly in this cabinet pulling out my pots and pans.  So I have taken to taping the cabinet shut during the day.  But then the little stinker sits and tries to peel the tape off!  Maybe someone will fix the baby latches soon **hint hint**.





Today we made a chalk neighborhood on our driveway.  I couldn't keep this baby out of it!  Well, there goes the third outfit of the day!

Our Weird Family

Dinner tonight was cuh-ra-zy.  Dawson had an epic night of spitting up and Carter was competing in the world's most annoying 4 year old contest.  (I say this in the most loving way possible.  But asking me over and over and over and over "Mom what are you doing?" does not make me happy.)  Then Ava looked around and said "It's getting weird in here."  Mike and I lost it, because indeed it was pretty weird in our kitchen.

And yes, Dawson is still spitting up like crazy almost nine months later.  And yes, it will be a major topic of conversation at his 9 month check up.

We also took Carter to pick up some items for his soccer season.  His first practice will be on Tuesday.  Did I mention that Mike is coaching the team?  This should be interesting!





More pics from Totter's Otterville, and camo kid.


Soccer kid, beer heaven, and big sis with little bro




Hope your weekend was not as weird as ours was!
