I have a bunch of photos I've been meaning to post but none of them are really enough to blog on their own. So, I've decided to post them all together and well. . . you can just look at them and whatever. . . .
This is Caleb. I don't know why I love this picture so much but he just has a tough guy, bully kind of look to him that I think is adorable. Don't you?
This is how we recycle trash in our home. Sort of. A few years ago, when I was a better mom and a little less spread-so-thin, we did something similar, only with dixie cups. The dixie cups worked alright, but these yogurt cups worked much better. We also cut up a plastic milk carton to make water slides and by the time we were finished we had a mini version of Great Wolf Lodge, complete with an ImagiNext treehouse in the middle. All I can say is at least Denver spent one day this week not sitting in front of the television. Woo-hoo!
All I can say is, when you have as much laundry as I do and as many babies, sometimes you gotta compromise. Who ever said there's anything wrong with carrying an infant in a hamper full of laundry? And, does Jericho seem to mind. I didn't think so.
Yeah. . . who knew turning eight was such a big deal? First he was baptized. Now Cub Scouts. Mark and Hunter have been plowing into getting Hunter's first badge and I have a feeling he'll have it by next week. We went to our first Pack Meeting last week and had a blast. Murray Clay did a fantastic job putting the whole thing together and except for the sled Hunter was sitting on, that the boys scouts were pulling in a race, that knocked over the table full of refreshments, everything went really well. We can't wait for the next Pack Meeting and whatever fun Murray Clay has up his sleeve.
This picture makes me really proud. Afterall, how many couch potatoes can you turn out in one blow. That's what I thought. We actually just finished reading Roald Dahl's Danny Champion of the World yesterday and as a treat, we watched the movie and ate popcorn together. I really love that book and watching how excited the boys get with each turn of the page. The movie was okay, but what movie is ever better than the book?
Today was the boys' one hundredth day of school. Last week Hunter was given an assignment to create a poster with 100 somethings on it. He chose candy hearts. I helped with the design but he did all the cutting, gluing, glittering, writing and counting all by himself. I think it turned out fabulous and he was especially pleased with the completed project.
Here's a closer look at the center of the poster. I thought that little snipet about love and counting was perfect and I insisted he include it. What do you think? Is it fabulous or is it fabulous?
