A little fun in the sun...

OTD

OTD has really begun to repeat things we say to him...

I'm upstairs, he is at the bottom of the stairs:

OTD: careful mommy
ME: Thanks OTD

when i got to the bottom of the stairs:

OTD: Good job mommy


I guess he hears that alot :)

ETD is now 10lbs. still just a little guy compared to where OTD was at this age. here are some pictures...

Storm season has arrived...

Good thing we took down the tree. Yesterday morning we had thunderstorms come through with 60+ mph winds. I was watching out the window and it felt like the house was shaking. ATD came home from school and asked if I got in the shelter. I told him no we were not under a tornado warning. He then told me they moved all the kids to the basement of the school during the storms. We found out on the news last night that the roof of the high school gym was peeled back. (The high school is across the street from his school...that is where they all eat lunch.)

And we are already under a sever storm warming for tonight. I was hoping we would have a few more weeks until i had to start worrying about storm weather!

TIMBER!!!

We have had a huge tree leaning towards the house since we moved in. The last tree that was leaning towards the house came down last year during the tornado. So instead of waiting for nature to handle it, we took it down. Mom and dad were here for a visit and we always have some kind of project to do. Our neighbor came over with his tractor to help us out. Here are some pictures. Everything went fine. I know there were lots of prayers going up from the cheering section!




the house looks a lot different without the tree.
