There's Work To Be Done


For the last couple of weeks we have awoke every morning to strangers loudly talking over the UN-ignorable sound of jackhammers, excavators, and dump trucks all around our house. (A perk to living on a corner!) My son whom of course is the only one amazed at the fact that we have a work sight in our front yard, continuously ask me what they are doing. After several days of no sleep, repeatedly explaining that they are laying new water lines and answering the question WHY over and over again it was time for a change! From that point on every time Nathatn would ask me what they were doing and why, I would simply reply "there's work to be done!" After this went on for a couple of days I found Nathan no longer glued to the front window of our house, instead he was always in the back yard. Every time I seen him he had out the same toys and was sitting in our gravel playing. After awhile I said to him "you must really be having fun playing!" At that point my witty and out-spoken 4 year old looked at me and boldly replied "I'm not playing, there's work to be done!"

Smile Maker

All of you that follow this blog know the story of Philip the monkey and how obsessed Nathan became with him. What many of you do not know is that after that he became obsessed with seeing himself and his artwork on the computer! He constantly wanted me to read blogs to him and post new ones all about him and all of his artwork. He began to realize that what is on the blog can be seen by all his favorite people even when they are not at our house! He thinks this is truly amazing and well needless to say Nathan now has his very own blog. A place where he can share his stories, adventures and showcase all of his artwork with a little help from me.

What A Wonderful World!

Our Annual trip to the pumpkin patch was a success! We had so much fun feeding the goats, getting lost in the corn maze, playing in the apple orchard, going on a hay ride and of course picking pumpkins!
Nathans favorite part was riding the bike through the hay maze and picking pumpkins! If he would of had his way we would have most likely come home with over 100 pumpkins! Evey pumpkin seemed to be the perfect pumpkin! Lilli however just laid back and took it all in! The scenery the noise and all the new smells. Which were not always pleasant let me add! The weather was cool but sunny so over all it was a wonderful day!

Look Who's 3 Months Old !


Yes it's true our adorable little red head is already three months old! She has grown so quickly we're not sure where these last few months have went! At her last appointment on September 23rd she was already 15lbs and 6oz. She is so smart and strong she amazes us every day! She has already begun the modeling stage and loves to stick out her tongue when she sees you doing it! She's able to hold her head up so well that she can now play in her walker and her jumparoo! If you want to make her laugh all you have to do is bark and growl she thinks it's hysterical. She has a well check on Tuesday the 7th so check the message board on the bottom of the page to get an updated weight and a length!
