Swinging After naps and before Ben got home I took the kids to the park. I’ve tried once before to put Betsy in a swing, but she was not quite ready. So I tried it again today and she loved it. It was overcast and breezy this afternoon so it was really enjoyable to … [Read more…]
Water Baby Betsy loves the bath and really loved getting in the pool this afternoon.
First Bike When Ben bought his new mountain bike he wound up with a bunch of points at the bike store. So we took advantage of the points and the holiday and went to get a bike for Carson. Nathan had his red tricycle at the lake this weekend, and Carson took a liking … [Read more…]
Zonked Out This is what I wish I’d been doing on the way back to Houston. Instead I was driving. Listening to the most upbeat music I could find in order to make it home. This weekend left me exhausted, in a good way. My mom had a fine time with Betsy, which was great … [Read more…]

The Fan… When the electrician got here (2 hours after he said he’d be here) he said our fan wasn’t rated for wet location. When we bought the fan we told the woman who helped us exactly what we were doing with the fan and so we only had a few options. The one we … [Read more…]
Sitting up in the Bath She isn’t 100% sturdy sitting up in the tub, so I had my hand behind her for most of the time, but she was super excited about it. You can probably tell by her blurry hands clapping for herself. The guys finished the pergola today, the construction of it at … [Read more…]
