Landon's First Snow!

Well I wasn't too excited about this crazy weather today, but it ended up to be pretty neat! I got some cute pics of Landon's first snow! Garrett, of course, was not left out! He wanted his pictures taken as well! I am bound and determined to get a perfect picture of Landon laughing with a cute background!

A wonderful Week with Family!!

We had such a fun week with Jodie and Jaelyn! It's been weird not having them around today! Garrett and Jaelyn play really well together and have SO much fun! Jaelyn was such a great help to have around! She really enjoyed taking care of and playing with Landon! She is definitely ready to be a big sister! (Thank you Jaelyn for always checking to see how "the baby" is doing! We really appreciated all your help!)

There weren't too many days that we could play outside, but when it was nice we took every moment possible to play outdoors! We flew kites...not very long, Garrett flew it into a tree and then ripped it out! (oops!)

It was fun to make cookies, color, sing with "the band" and eat at the J cafe! Thank you again Jodie and Jaelyn for making our week so memorable! We hope that we can see you soon! It will be even more memorable when there is another baby in the mix! Love you so much!!!

Play date!!

Garrett loves when his friends come over to play! Today Rue came for a few hours and we loved it! They played "chase" for a lot of the time and then we ended up playing the "tickle monster". I got the vacuum out and started vacuuming and they played like it was the monster. So everytime they got off the couch I chased them with the vacuum. When I was done vacuuming I said that I was the tickle monster now! I would hide and they would try and come find me, but before they got to me I jumped out, scared them and chased them to the couch to get tickled! We did that for quite sometime...taking turns too! While all this ruckus was going on...Tank was just giggling at all the craziness! He is so laid back! I also had fun with the kids taking pictures! They were intrigued with looking at themselves on the camera lens! We really enjoyed our day and hope that Rue can come again soon!

J's Super Hero Bday Party

We had a great morning this morning! Went to our favorite neighbor's son's birthday party in the park! I think that we all came there thinking that it was going to be a beautiful day and somehow all of us ended up with coats on! The kids didn't seem to mind so much! G was Batman and he played the part well. Tank was quite the entertainer too...he just basically showed up and everyone wanted to see the "new" baby on the block! (His nickname in the neighborhood is Tank because he is so HEAVY...but we love every piece of it!)

Poor Garrett

Say a prayer...little G-man is sick again! He is running a fever and not sure what it is that he has! Poor guy has been non-stop sick since the beginning of December.

Tuesday March 2, 2009

We had such a fun day today! Both of the kids were in a great mood and no fussiness all day! Praise the Lord! Garrett played in paper for the longest time....swimming, fishing, jumping in leaves, and playing hide and seek! Landon was as usual in a great mood! All smiles when Nana came to the house! Tuesdays we always have our lifebuilder group over and Garrett loves to help pick up and cook for them! He LOVES to get "his" chair out and set it right by where Mr. Brad and Ms. Sarah sit! We love our lifebuilder group!!!!

As you all know, we are potty training...STILL! Garrett is doing so much better! He actually went potty in the potty today! He currently will only do that at school, so we are hopefully making progress! He has a goal hanging in the bathroom for when he is potty trained! It is a Cars pj outfit! He loves Cars and will do anything for his buddy Mater!

Monday Adventure!

Today we had a great morning at home and then ran errands all afternoon! Landon and Garrett played with the exersaucer and sang many songs together! I actually thought to get the camera out and take pictures! I am so excited now that our pictures can be used for something and not just sit on my camera!

Also, today Garrett has decided to start a game with me....Where will I pee today? Not the potty! This is the second day that Garrett knows when he needs to go potty but doesn't go to the toliet. We will be obviously trying some new tactics, hopefully he will be potty trained before high school...ha ha!
