It's Handy, To Have A Handy-man Husband

Look what Big J built me! There used to be 2 empty indents there. Now there is tons more storage! There is still not enough storage in this house. Which makes me wonder if ANYONE ever has enough storage? Or no matter what size house you have, you find more than enough to fill it? Either way I'm grateful for a husband that spends his days off trying to improve our home.

On the left is most our food storage. On the right is the entertainment equip. ... and our vacuum and shampooer!

The Amazing Little C!

Here is a trick that Little C has mastered. The art of sleeping upright. He will be sitting quietly in the shopping cart or eating lunch/dinner at the table and without warning you will only turn your head for a second and..... this is what happens.

He does this all the time. Most of the time when he does it at the table he is mid bite and has a whole mouth full of food left.

(This picture was taken today at lunch)

In this picture we were in the WinCo parking lot. 2 mins. earlier while I was loading the groceries from the cart onto the cashiers belt the lady behind us told me that he was asleep! He was sitting straight up like the earlier picture, so I put my purse there to use as a pillow.

ANOTHER HALLOWEEN!

This year we had a Clone Trooper, Tinker Bell, and a Dragon! But I must admit that my enthusiasm for Halloween wasn't as it should have been. I only made Little A's costume and by the time I was done with that all my Halloween Spirit was gone. Plus Little D was insistent on being a Clone Trooper and I didn't want to make one of those.

But the kids had fun and we were able to go to the church Trunk-Or-Treat. First they played little games and there was food to eat.



Little C had colored chocolate dripping down his chin and onto his costume. That was my first mistake, letting him have that first bag of M&M's. I was very grateful for Bro. Krumm for handing out Cheetos instead of candy. I would rather give Little C Cheetos than candy.

This was the first year that we let Little D run around with his friends by himself. He was pretty excited. Big J took Little A around to all the cars.

Needless to say we now have too much candy hanging around and all the kids are addicted. Little C brings me candy after candy wanting me to open it. We have caught him a few times with a candy bar eating and squeezing it through the wrapper. He must have a hidden stash somewhere.
