Playing Catch Up

Here is a catch up post from the end of September and beginning of October.

The week that Grandma and Aunt Courtney were visiting we had an exciting weekend. There was a wind storm that came through and we lost power from Thursday night until Saturday morning. It really wasn't so bad. Here are the kids playing downstairs with flashlights.

Here is what it looked like without the flash.

We had to find new homes for our frozen food. Friday night we spent the evening loading the food from the deep freeze and fridge into coolers, then toted it to our friend Joe's house and Darren's sister's house. Long night.
Little Lady sat by the window and light in the living room. She was so good while we were busy.
Gianna fell asleep one afternoon with her phone in her hand. Daddy wonders if its a sign of things to come in the future. Keep an eye on those phone bills Daddy!
She loves sitting the "center pivot". She plays quite a bit in there during the day.
HAPPY 6 MONTHS OLD BABY GIRL!! For her six month birthday Brech Earl tipped her over in the stroller (he's so helpful) and gave her a goose egg. We had to cuddle and give lots of kisses. I put some Arnica on her forehead and it was pretty much gone the next morning.
We have been going to story time at the library the past two weeks. The boys have enjoyed themselves. The first week we went the books were about vehicles.

TOO CUTE!

The first week's craft was driving cars on paper or maps with Matchbox cars dipped in washable paint. They had a great time getting messy.
The second week we attended was about being grouchy. The boys made an Oscar the Grouch out of a paper plate.
I have been using their "Grouch faces" as a mask the past few days. Gets grumpy boys to smile and maybe laugh.
Brech wanted to have a picture of him and me. He's such a sweetie!!
Gianna is getting closer to crawling. She rolls everywhere now. She isn't that fast yet so I don't have to worry about the stairs. She mostly rolls to her toys and maybe a stray book or two. Paper is SOOO yummy. :-)
