We won't ever pass by our driveway again. Even though it doesn't happen anymore. It's nice to have something up on our fence to show which one is our home and to make it look cute. We also hung up an H just like this one on our front door. My next DIY project is to paint the mailbox. I don't think anyone really cares about that but me. It's just not very pretty at all. Little things at a time.
We had some friends over for dinner Sunday night (the ones who found our house and is my realtor). We wanted to make it easy on ourselves, because who are we kidding...we have four kids between us. It's too much to try and cook a meal on a Sunday night. So Craig and I called around to find a place to buy Home Run Inn pizza and then made dessert. Atleast we had our favorite pizza and a little taste of home. They seemed to really enjoy the pizza and the dessert....well.. here's a picture of it. It was amazing.
Saturday we had a full day of fun. Craig had a hair cut appointment, so the kids and I tagged along and we even got Micah a cut too. Then had breakfast at a little cute place just down the street from the haircut place. Then we went home took naps and got up to try out a city pool we've been wanting to try. It was really awesome. Nice splash area and baby pool. Everything we needed. We were all exhausted after that. Micah went to bed early and it was a great day. The weekends go by so so fast. But really so do the weekdays. I can't believe it's Wednesday.
Here we are at the pool. Noelle had a bit of a drippy nose. She is all better now, but took awhile to get over that little cold.
This is just one day when I was getting Noelle ready and Micah sat in the chair and said, "Momma I'm ready to take a picture with Noelle." So that's just what we did.
I've been trying to get Micah to do more crafts at home. I really need to branch out and try new ideas. He was doing some glueing the other day and after like 5 minutes he said, "Mom I need to stop craft because it's hurting my tummy." So anyway, obviously the crafting was not working out for his stomach. I bought him an easel for dry erase markers at Aldi and he seems to like that.
Noelle....OH MY ... Help. She is army crawling all over the place and starting to try and crawl on her knees. She tries a few times up on her knees, but them realizes she can go faster army crawling. So I'm in for a real treat. This girl is getting faster and this mom is getting more nervous. I can't leave her anymore. Thankfully I have two bouncy seats/exersaucers that she doesn't really like since it's keeping her from moving around. But it's safe!!
She likes to sit in the stroller still and look at everyone and everything. She doesn't want to get down on the ground yet when we are out. I'll take it! Right when Micah goes to school I'm going to have a walker...I just know it!
We went to this place last week to pick up new clothes for Noelle since she's in 12 month now. Micah got to ride the train all by himself. He is so old now. Totally potty trained and I'm loving it. Wiping his but still, but I can deal with that part. He is such a big boy.
We've been trying to explain the gospel more to him and I just love his reactions to it. He loves Jesus already and his favorite song is "Jesus Love ME" I'm so thankful for his heart and the way he believes without a doubt. I tell him about death and how if mommy or daddy ever die we wll see each other again. It's not something I like to talk about, but I see so much of it these days that I can't help but to prepare him. I don't want him to think this world is all we have. It's so important that if he were to lose one of us that he knows God is taking care of us somewhere else. Everytime I talk about it, I want to cry. IT's so sad what some families are walking through, but God is so good.
Hope you all are having a blessed day!
