Gamers

Anyone who knows me could tell you that I'm not much of a "gamer". I don't hate games, they are just not my favorite choice of activity. My children on the other hand have come to love playing games. So being the adaptable mother that I am, I've actually instituted game night at our house. Every Tuesday night we have pizza and play games until bedtime. Of course they still like to play games every day and I can't tell you how thrilled I am about the latest development in this area. Nolan is finally old enough to play games with Aidyn unassisted! They get everything set up, play the game (usually without much conflict) and have a great time! Plus it is so cute to hear them cheering each other on "Good job Nolan!" "Yeah Aidyn!" I love it!

Basketball Season

Aidyn has started another season of basketball. She was excited to play again this year and has been enjoying it so far.
Here she is with her team, listening intently to what the coach has to say.

Look at that form!

Nolan gets to come with and play with his friends too. Here he is with his buddy Saylor.

When your spoon doesn't cut it, your tongue will do the trick. The kid loves applesauce...what more can I say.

Finally!!

After almost 7 years in our house, we FINALLY have a new light in our kitchen!! I always disliked the one that was there, but it wasn't until this past year that I really started to loathe it. I finally found one I liked and that would fit and with help from my dad, I got it installed. I'm thrilled!
