Lovely View

I can't ever get over how beautiful our little hometown is. Every day I see something that makes me take pause. This was taken from the end of our street, with my cell phone!

Let me count the ways...

The boy had me draw this hopscotch for him, and he wrote in the numbers all by himself! That is the first time I have seen him write 1-10 and he was so proud! Way to go!!

Generations

Grandpa Bob and Grandma Bob have been staying with us for a few day while they are in town. The boy is quite enamored with his Grandpa, and baby girl eventually warmed up (she is SUCH a Momma's girl!) We were sad to see them leave, but we enjoyed visiting with them. I  learned a lot about them that I never knew before, just listening to their stories of their lives. I love that my kids know them and get to spend time with them.

You're no bunny till some bunny loves you!

The boy loves to hold his bunny and let it jump around him. We had to have a little talk about being gentle, but since then he is so incredibly soft with it. He is such a sweet boy, and a joy to have in our home!

WHEE!

Baby girl loves it when Daddy holds her upside down. She giggles and grins and kicks and squeals. Mommy is always chastising Daddy about being gentle, but Baby girl seems to enjoy herself, so maybe Daddy is on to something here!

Corn snakes are soft and tickle you

One of the boy's favorite past times is going to the pet store to look around. Today they were cleaning out the snake terrariums and there was a snake skin that had been shed. The employee told the boy he could have it if he wanted it...which much to my chagrin he did. The boy has been talking non stop about corn snakes lately. I don't know where he got his information, but he says "Corn snakes are soft and they tickle you and they want to climb all over you. Mean snakes want to eat you. "

Lil stinker!

Brother had a powdered donut sitting on the countertop. When he came out from getting him dressed, we found that SOMEONE had stolen it. I'm not sure who it could have been. There has been no ransom note. There is really nothing to go on.
