More Excuses

I could sit her and tell you that I have been super busy, or that my camera was lost in a giant car fire, or that aliens abducted me and erased my knowledge of how to post pictures... but I won't. I'll just suffice it to say I'm lazy...

But, here you go.

Chillin' at Papa's house

Sleeping... again... just a new audience

Falling asleep seems to be a hobby of Michael's. But lately I can't really blame him since he has been putting in obscene hours at work. He just cuddles up to whoever is close... and they all fall happily to sleep. This time... Damion and Jag were his companions.

(Logan was running around at full tilt... wide awake!)

Cheap Deals Equal Smiles Around

Ahhh... my husband. He always... I mean ALWAYS walks in the door with SOMETHING that was ON SALE that we HAD TO HAVE...

Well, this time (unlike so many others) he hit a homerun with his cheap deal of the day. Logan was in his brothers room watching TV and Mike and I snuck in his room to put up this bed tent.

He was thrilled when he walked in his room and was smiling from ear to ear. Of course, it was all fun and games until he realized that he had to actually go to SLEEP in the tent... not just play.

So, once we loaded ALL of his "guys" (stuffed animals) into the bed, put his star tutrtle in there and gave him the glowing color bear... THEN he went to sleep. And the next day after school, he got to share the tent with his brother... who enjoyed it just as much.

Junk Mail Fun

We all know that it does not take a whole lot to entertain a child, but this time, the junk mail provided stimulation for over an hour! First we had to figure out how to get them off the sticker sheet without mom's help... because we had to do it "ALL BY MYSELF!"


Then we had to decide exactly where all these stickers were going to go! We started to run low on arm space so we had no other choice than to start sticking them all over our face!




And last, but certainly not least, we had to make time to show off for the camera...

The crazy weather fun

I don't know how we can go from snow to the 70's in about 5 days, but that's North Carolina weather for you. The boys enjoyed the snow yesterday and Damion was thrilled to get the day off. Only problem now is that he has to go for a make-up day... on SATURDAY!


The boys love getting all bundled up to go out in the snow. Although this was a "warmer" snow day than most, they insisted on the whole nine yards. And, I grudgingly let Logan get all bundled up and go play with his big boy undies on. Luckily, there were no accidents. YEAH LOGAN!

Eating snow is cool and all. I sugggest every kid trys it... but let's make sure the snow you eat has not been stepped on with muddy feet!

FACE OFF!

The neighbor kids were outside also and the youngest girl was on the trampoline with her friend while the oldest girl was on the ground. It was two on one in this snowball fight until Karley (the oldest) called Damion over to be on her team. It was really awesome of her to do and he had a blast.

And Logan... well he spent two hours entertaining himself and was QUITE happy about it thank you!

Damion's 1st Grade Performance

This year, for their music performance, Damion's class did a song about Kings. They each took a turn carrying around a pillow with the kings crown and they got to create their own crowns in art class.
