He got into the box of winter stuff.... on a 90 degree day.
On Wednesday I just felt so tired. After lunch the kids were all being good watching PBS so Braden and I sat on my recliner to relax, but I ended up falling asleep for 2 hours. When I woke up everyone was still there on the couch around me, except for Deacon.
I got up to look for him and couldn't find him anywhere. Just as I started to panic, Bri called me from the toy room to come see this.... him sound asleep in the dress-up clothes tote.
"Put 'em up, Sammich!"
"Do I wook beautifuw Mommy?"
I have mentioned before this trouble with having big sisters, right?

Miss and my cutie nephew Grant.
Aunt Melissa with her kiddos and mine, with the exception of Owen and Braden.
Owen was too busy for the group picture...


This kid loves to stand on the window sill in the dining room and talk to all the "buh-dies" (birdies) out in the yard as they peck for worms and eat leftover children's sandwich crusts.
My beautiful bouquet from Deacon.
Found George, Isaac's monkey that has been claimed by Levi, sitting on the counter like this guarding the microwave. Thanks George. In our house it does need guarding.
Yep, you're right Isaac. The bumbo seat does work well as one of those war helmets that cover the nose like on Lord of the Rings....
My Birthday dinner. I turned the big 2-9 this week. I'm really not too afraid of my 30's approaching. I think.
This year instead of cake I had a big fruit pizza. Sugar cookie crust, orange-cream cheese frosting spread, topped with layers of yummy fresh fruit. It was pretty fun to make.
The kids made me a sweet birthday card, and Lexxi even got creative and made a magnetic fishing pole that I used to pull the card out with....smartie pants.
And Bri made me this lovely necklace. What sweet kids and how I treasure these gifts.
