Overheard at my house 2.16.11

Overheard at my house this evening....

Logan: Momma, I want a bwodder.
Me: Oh you do?
Logan: Yeah, wet's go to da baby store and get a boy baby someday.

Oh sweet Logan, if it was only that easy!!! Life is good.

Dentist 1.26.11

It was time for the dentist again and Logan did great! The last time we were there he did really well and this time it was smooth sailing. No cavities!!! However as Logan was getting examined, the dentist decided that he was "tongue tied". Mike and I had thought he was for years, but our peditrician always said that it was no problem. Well, Logan has a big gap in between the bottom of his two front teeth and apparently it's due to his being tongue tied and the gap will never go away unless he gets snipped. So, we will be going to a specialist. We were told that he won't have to be put under so that's good. We'll see how that goes. As for today, we were cavitiy free so it was a great day! Life is good.

Sunrise 1.26.11

As much as I hate getting Logan up so early in the mornings, there are some days where our drive is just beautiful. Today was one of those days. This was what we were treated to as we headed to the dentist. I made the appointment so early so Logan wouldn't miss preschool. It was a beautiful sunrise. Life is good.

Norman's True Love 1.24.11

As much as I know how much Norman loves us all, he really only has one true love. Sally. Oh sweet Sally. She is hands down his favorite toy. She's his first choice when he needs something in his mouth to help him greet people. She's the one he picks when he wants to play tug of war or fetch. And she's most definitely the one he goes to when he wants to cuddle. Sally is well loved and no matter how many times she's washed, she never goes back to that pretty blue she was, but that doesn't matter to Norm. She's had many surgeries and yet Norman's love is unyielding. It really is a testament to true love. Life is good.

Brett and Norman 1.17.11

That little Brett takes after my own heart. Today we invited Karen, Craig, and Brett over for some lunch and a playdate. While Logan and Craig tore through the house having a grand old time playing transformers, Brett was very happy to give his attention to Norman, or as we likes to say, "Ooof, ooof." Brett definitely has a soft spot in his heart for dogs. Every time he comes over he picks up this one picture I have of Norman and walks around the house saying, "ooof, ooof." It's so sweet. Brett you're welcome to come over anytime and love on Norman. Goodness knows Norm would be in heaven. ;o) Life is good.

Snow in the New Year 1.9.11

He soooo wants to go outside eventhough it's only 7:15 am.
Getting all the snow gear on.

Have I mentioned how much Norm loves the snow???

Sledding.

Snowangels.

After hearing that we were suppose to get the worst winter in 40 years, I was not surprised to wake up this morning to find snow everywhere. As much as I hate driving in it, I'm learning to enjoy it while I can. Last year we didn't see a lick of it and I didn't like that one bit. So today we headed out for the afternoon to play until we were either exhausted or freezing or both. What fun we have in the snow. Life is good.

The Conductor 12.30.10

Eventhough it had snowed a lot and it the roads around our area were pretty treacherous, my dear friend Donna came down for dinner and play time anyway. Bless her little heart. When I texted her and told her how bad the roads were, she replied, "I'm not scared of the snow!" So much better than me. Anyway, for some reason I didn't take any pictures of Logan, Wyatt, or Josey playing, but as always, Donna had some great hand-me-downs of Wyatt's to pass onto Logan, one of which was this fantastic train hat. I just love it. So after they left (with some help from me and the neighbors because they got stuck in the snow), Logan put the hat on to watch a little Dinosaur Train. Too cute. Life is good.
