Little Indians!

Emmersyn is fluttering butterfly and Wyatt running river! The kids had a great time at their thanksgiving feast at school!

Speaking of school - I just picked up a shoeless kid. Alyssa my sister takes wyatt to school for me one day a week. She picked him up at the sitters and got to school only to realize he stepped in dog poop! It was the messy kind! So she currently has a pair of smelly shoes in her itty bitty car instead of dragging it in school! Sorry Aunt Sissa, thanks for taking one for the team!

Quiet reading time.

...two seconds later they were fighting tooth and nail over that Blues Clues book - which i might mention - neither of them has ever previously cared for....but it was sweet while it lasted!

3 more geocaches!

Tonight we had to run errands in the next town over so we took advantage of the warm weather again! It started raining on us at the end but that was a part of the fun! We found 3 out of 3 - actually Adam found all 3! It neat how clever people can get hiding these things! I'm so excited we learned about this! It's a great way to see sights we've never seen and spend quality time as a family!

Another chapter in how having kids changes you.

I wish I had her charm because she knows how to get the men in her life to do whatever she wants! Here's the best daddy ever painting her nails today! Never thought id see the day - ok actually i did, hes just that kinda dad! I'm glad I got home in time to catch the moment! EmmeLu you are one lucky gal!

This weekend is what I needed!

I'm all charged up and ready for the short week ahead! We have been super busy but doing normal fun stuff!!

We got up early Saturday and hit Walmart and ate some pizza! Cleaned up around the house and outside, and Adam is mr fix it thank gosh and figured out how to fix the power locks on the window in our truck (saving us at least a hundred $$)! We played some games and had some good meals! We've also been listening to lots of Xmas music and doing Christmas crafts!

Today - we went geocaching in the nice weather!! We went to town and saw adams family for a birthday party! Now we are going to hunker down the rest of the night playing Mario and eating our freshly delivered boy scout popcorn! Yay!

I'm thankful this weekend ended up being everything I needed it to be!!

Forgetfulness

How does one know when one has too much on their plate!?

Oh they forget their child's family turkey project for school (enter mom tears - even though she was none the wiser), remembers to pay children's tuition for school (3 days late), oh but wait for it....

Have the police show up at your house to tell your husband that you forgot to pay for your gas last night. In my defense (kinda) I swiped my card and ran in to buy something - I had Adam stop the pump at $30 - hopped in the car and went, sans receipt proving purchase went through. Oops!

Ya it happened - all in one day to this mama!

Our schedules are a Lil different lately and to say it has me a little off kilter would be mostly accurate.

So - this weekend = a little r&r for our family to recharge the brain cells!

File this under Ambers and idiot!

Best friend ever

This is how i found my babies sitting together the other day. My greatest wish is that these two remain best friends throughout their lives!

They are 656 days and 3 seconds apart in age. And practically every second since Emmersyns birth they have been inseparable (besides going preschool).

He's the only little boy she loves (though she may not like him - because remember she doesn't like boys). & he's her biggest protector - She's his favorite girl. He understands her better than anyone - almost telepathically I swear.

They will be one grade apart in school which gives me great comfort that they will be there for one another!

I know they'll fight (because they've done that for years already!). But I hope that they know the importance of family and their unbreakable bond. A built in friendship, a partner in crime, and someone always in their corner.

I love them more than anything and it melts my heart that they love each other equally as much!
