staple-puller

Last night Cam and I yanked his staples. It was awesome. I got the wire cutters from the garage, snipped those little staples and then he pulled them out. Yay! no sitting in the ER waiting for 4 hours to have 2 little staples pulled. Cam said it didn't even hurt. After that we shaved his head. Man! he needed a haircut BAAAAAAAD. A little hillbilly doctoring never hurt anyone. right?

ps- did you notice my awesome layout and header on my blog? My sister Katie figured it all out and hooked me up! Isn't it cute.

bringing home the bacon

I am now painting furniture for money. Shameful I know, but why not. If you have something you want done, just bring the paint and the piece. I'll get 'er done. These are just a few pieces I've done lately.

Head Wound

Cam really was being good at church and entertaining the baby for me when he lost his balance and hit his head just right on the pew. Split it clean open. 2 staples later, and some tylenol. Good as new.

In the ER he was more interested in how the bed worked than what happened to him.

Funny energetic little boys.

Happy Birthday to my BABY.

He turned 1 last week. Here are some cute things he does:

-he loves his daddy much more than me.

-he started walking a couple of weeks before his birthday and he "practices" much more than my other boys.

-he sleeps like his mom, SO light.

-Is tiny for his age.

-Adores his brothers and often thinks he is the same age and can do the same things.

-Gets on top of the train table and throws the tracks off which makes Jack SCREAM.

-he learned how to shake his head no.

-he shares his birthday with his Aunt Marilyn.

He is a super smart little boy and we sure love him.

I WOULD LOVE THIS IN MY BACKYARD. But with our current state of "up-in-the-air-ness" with our lives, this will have to be on hold. Still its okay to dream right?...

(Its a chicken coop for your backyard. It's super cute and clean looking. Go here for details.)
