Bed Time Snacks

Papa likes to snack on crackers and milk before bed, while I prefer a nice cold slice of Kraft cheese. Yummm! Our bedtime routine starts with cheese and ends with a story (or two, or three, or however many I can get daddy to read).

Back to School

After a wonderful summer, Mommy's first day of school is today! She has more separation anxiety about this than I do, but she'll be okay... especially knowing that she only has three weeks until she's back home with me! :)

Bigger and Better

Fort Sydney continues to become a more complex labyrinth. This time, a few more pieces of furniture were incorporated to expand the structure. I'm glad that daddy enjoys building forts as much as I do. :)

Worth Every Penny.

Today's post comes to you from mommy...

I may be speaking only for my very pregnant self, but things seem to get considerably more uncomfortable as the big "d" day draws near. Normal everyday movements become major exertions of energy leaving me out of breath and glowing with a shiny mist of perspiration. Simple acts like getting out of bed, walking up the stairs, and/or tying my shoes become so tiresome that I must rest afterwards. You get the idea. One of the most difficult movements has become anything that involves bending over. It is nearly impossible to bend over without some sort of yelp, whine and/or whimper. In response to this, Andy came home one day with the PERFECT solution to my immobility.Meet my new sidekick, the EZ-Grabber. I am officially hooked. Seriously, go and get yourself this amazing genius of an invention. It is practically attached to my hip at this point and I'm pretty sure (no, I'm definitely sure) that I will continue using it until I develop a severe case of carpel-tunnel syndrome from squeezing the trigger. I haven't bent over to pick up a toy, or anything else for that matter, in two weeks. Now that is pure laziness awesomeness.

Splash!

My favorite kind of park this summer isn't the kind with all of the climbing equipment, it's more of the splash variety!

What's Under Mommy's Shirt?

It's my yet-t0-be named brother! As of yesterday, he weighs roughly 5 lbs. 10 oz. and is measuring two weeks ahead of schedule. I get the whole idea that mommy has a baby in her belly, but I don't really have any clue that I am going to have to share the spotlight. I love having the run of the house, so I hope this new 'lil shorty doesn't try to overthrow my reign. I'll keep you posted... :)

My Fair Lady

Our trip the State Fair was a grand time! The day included a variety of rides, a lot of walking, a petting zoo, and eating our way around the festival. We made a quick stop at the famous butter cow and checked out the farm animals along the way. The rides (and the oreo pie) were my favorite part of the day! Check out some of our fun by clicking on the picture below...

Mutipurpose

Some people use tupperware to store leftovers. At our house, it is sometimes used as a water dish for Sadie (after the shorty of the house drops the ceramic one and it crumbles to pieces). I find it to be most useful for bathing my babies!

If only we knew what Sadie was thinking... :)
