A Little Old...

Not Brandon, but this picture....



We found some lovely clearance hardwood at Home Depot and decided to go for it in the dining room. Brandon did it all himself (well, I helped a little) and it is BEAUTIFUL!!!




So we decided to do it again in the living room....
Poor original hardwood that we covered up in the process. It just couldn't compete with the beauty of the dining room.



Love it!

Don't mind the possessed dog in the last pic. That's just our chihuahua. Also, we've rearranged the living quarters upstairs...I'll have to tidy up before I take a picture, so you know how long that could take. That will be another post.

Poor Club Footed Birdy

This is our little robin baby. His family keeps trying to attack us as we try to help him. He's not that great at flying yet, and apparently has something wrong with his feet. We can't get him to uncurl his toes the right way and he can't hold onto branches. I think he might die. We fed him and held him for awhile last night, and at the end, he would just sit on my gloved hand. He balanced with his tail. He's so cute, but I put him over the fence so that Eamon, our dog, or a neighborhood cat wouldn't get him in our yard. Poor baby.

Wierd Science

Here's Eamon...."Mom, look at my hand, it's big!"

Dropping like Flies

Cameron lost his 3rd tooth this morning. Finally a big one....Yuck. He has enjoyed immensely wiggling it here and there and showing us all of the spectacular angles he could achieve. Seriously gross. Well, this morning, he proudly brought it in to me. I think the larger teeth are worth more to the Tooth Fairy. We'll see. At least he's not afraid of her anymore.


And then Eamon had to get in on the action.

Thanks for the stickers

Oh stickers are such a useful tool! They are pure fun for kids. You would think that peeling them off, putting them on clothes, paper, walls, floors and furniture was enough. But you have not met Eamon. I guess he thought it was too bright in his room during his nap, because this is what I discovered upon checking on him.

The Example of a Skinny Friend

Okay, here I am world. Blah. After reading many creative-person blogs for a couple months, and feeling under-qualified and too overwhelmed to have my own, I read my friend's family blog today and thought, "Hey! I want to do that!"
So congratulations Melissa, I am following you like a little sheep. I hope you feel good.
