Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! Boy it did just that. I think we have about 2ft plus here. My poor little blow up guys are so in the snow now. My job today is to dig them out I hope. I took these pic about 7:30 am. Let the snow clean up day begin.

Crawdads

The crawdads came today. Ethan just loves lobsters. So with his love we wanted to get him crawdads for the tank. Now I have done lots of reading and yes I know they can eat our fish, but at times people get lucky and the crawdads don't eat the other fish. Lets just hope we get that lucky. WE was so post to be getting 2 blue and 2 white but on there trip here they got hungry and one of the white ones didn't make the trip, he/ she was lunch. The First little guy you see is the smaller one of the 2 blue. If you can't make him out he is in the plant. The next pic shows the big blue one by the rock. The 3rd and only white one is in the last pic in the clear tube that I bought so Ethan could see them hide.

55 Gal Fish Tank

Rod Got Us a 55 gal tank for Ethan's b-day. It's really a statement once you enter our living room. Please over look the fog water. We added a few fish and the water does this. The big kisser fish Rod bought with another  of the same kid are so funny. The fish can be mean but it looks as if we have a very gentle pair. The big one has to be about 3+ inch long. While we have a wide spread of other type of fish. I even have 4 Molly's 3 female and one male. WE have already had a molly give birth but lost all of her fry (baby fish) do to other fish eating them. Next time another molly has a fry,I'm going to be ready.

While we wait 10/17

Today we went to look at a house. It turns out the foundation is cracking So we are moving on. While the kids and I waited for Rod and Larry (agent) I took some snap shots of Olivia playing in the over grown lawn. I love the first pic if my truck wasn't there. 

Waiting for Ethan 10/15

She is right into Dinos and Little plastic animals. WE went to the Christmas tree shop while we waited for Ethan to get out of speech. While we was their she spotted more Dinos so for only 1.00$ each I picked up 4. She was a cutie for these pic.

Ocean trip October 13th

Oct 3rd

So Ethan came home 2 days ago and said. " I wanna be a pirate!" With seeing the christmas tree shop having a add for a Pirate costume for 6.99 I had to get it. As soon as he saw it in the truck when I picked him up at school he wanted it on fast. He was so cute going arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! 

Play doe its all the fun at our house. Not only does the cutters get used,but all the toys make a way into the doe as well. Can I just tell you all how much I'm in love with the little desk I found for 1.99. With panting them up and putting them in the kitchen the kids spend more time doing crafts then banging around with the other toys. 

Sept 26th Time to Paint

It was time! Ethan's room really needed a paint job. Ethan got to pick out his color and everything. Of course people knowing Ethan very well knows he LOVES lobsters and Crabs. I also have to add sharks to the list too. So the color really makes you feel your under the sea. WE are looking for crab decals that go on the walls and sea life to make it really something special for him. 

Sept 7th

Marker is the new make up didn't you know. This is what happens when I just let her play while I fix supper and don't watch her. See her pants? They needed color also.

White Spider

Today this little spider fell from my flower plant, onto my hand. Now if the spider was brown and nasty looking I would have jumped and bushed the thing off me fast. But this little spider caught my eye. As you can see its all white. With much looking on the internet I found its some type of crab spider, it also can turn yellow in a yellow flower. I didn't go find a yellow flower to test that out. I just had to get a pic of this little thing before it found its self a new home. I wish I had a macro lens. I hope you can see how small the little thing is.

Time to update.

Wow its been a long time since I updated this blog. Sorry, family and friends. So I'm making it up to you with a months worth of pic and the things we did. The pic have been up loaded to pass to now. 

I took the kids to the capital park today. Even though we had to run home and get Ethan a change. I took the kids back to run around and try to get a shot or two of them. Let me tell you I really had no luck.

PAINT JOB..... Guess who little piggies are those.
YES!! Ethans crazy kid. HE found my finger nail polish and had a job. He told me he likes the purple the best. 
Pool fun!!! Rod's dad came down with 3 of the 4 kids. The twins had a ball game to goto. It was so nice to have them here for a few days. The kids just loved playing with the uncles. 




First day of pre school for Olivia. This girl would not for the life of her give me a great shot. She was just ready to goto school. What a big girl. Now if she would just pee in the potty.


I just really love this pic with Olivia holding onto Max.
Do you see it???? Ethan drew a fly. I could see it right off So I took a pic of the board before he went back to draw another pic. 
Strawberry picking time with Mimi . The kids where really not to sure about the trip to pick. BUt for the most part they where great. Had a great time with Liz that day. WE picked lots of strawberry's that day also.


Wind Jammer Days. I brought the kids down to see the big ships and the fire works. Ethan is still talking about them today.





So thats it everything for a month. I hope you don't hate me to much. I'll stay on top of things better I hope. Love you all lori
