Mission Control

Scott built a block computer and was pretending to talk to astronauts. Will he follow his dad down the same career path?!

Visit with Grandpa

Grandpa and Judy paid us a visit this week. The kids had fun playing while Eric and I squeezed in some productive projects taking my car in for a tune up and cleaning out the attic as well as meeting for lunch one day!

Heat Relief

Finally a morning with low humidity and cooler temperatures! The kids ate breakfast outside which was great since I didn't have to clean the kitchen :o)

My silly silly girl

Sydney insists on taking random items with her to bed every night and sometimes at nap time. I have been trying to remember her picks and have decided to finally write them down so I don't forget them.

• tonight: She was wearing Scott's sunglasses, clutching 2 coupons along with her stuffed sheep and dog.
• nap today: A little People Bus full of a stuffed dog, couple of people, small pail and unopened package of fruit snacks.
• last night: my cell phone

Other recent times:

• bowl of strawberries
• purse
• small pail with marker lids--yes she fell asleep holding the pail which took awhile because every time she moved the lids would spill and she would have to put them back in again.
• One night she was wearing about 5 bracelets.
• She wore Scott's Crocs for her entire nap one day.
• random clothes--a shirt/towel, etc.
• fingernail clippers

I know there has been so much more so I'm sure I'll go back and add to this post when I remember as well as what she takes to bed in the future!

Copy Cat

So I walk in from the kitchen and they are sitting just like this. Of course I had to go get my camera and during that time they had gotten up so this pose is when I asked them to sit back down but I promise, it was just like this when I walked in!

Of course Sydney followed Scott and got in position just like him for drawing.

Scott drew a sun!

Pigtails!

Yea! Sydney has enough hair for pigtails AND she will sit long enough to fix her hair!

So...

Sorry there has not been a post for a looooong time but we've been busy getting the house ready...to sell! It will be officially on the market tomorrow. So after a VERY busy week of de-cluttering, painting, cleaning, etc. I think we are ready to go.

The kids found some boxes to occupy their time. Scott set up some beds for them. I want to mention that they both have a box, pillow, stuffed animal and pacifier...Oh and are both not wearing clothes. Have I mentioned before that whatever Scott does, Sydney has to do?!

Later that day they both did take a nap on the couch :o)
