To bed I say......

They like it better when dad puts them to bed.... I wonder why.

Phone changes..

I type one thing it changes it ...ugh...makes me sound stupid in my blog posts! Beck is getting the grumpies...

Top teeth

Grumpier are starting again as the top teeth are starting to come!

Long day...

Ran 3.5 miles this.morning with the youngest two in the stroller, I've had some shin splints that have been bothering me...but are finally starting to feel better. But now my L knee is starting to really hurt. I am wondering if running through the shin splints is causing some tendonittis.  So here I am icing it and cuddling with baby B who just happened to fall asleep..it's ok I am not going anywhere.

Pre- Conference Camping Trip

Hello Friends,

Don't sweat it when you realize that both Purdue and IU friends have been invited!

I am trying to put together a family camp out with friends. I am planning this the Friday night before General Conference, because we will still have time to get back and settled....plus maybe a hike in the am will help the kiddo's let us listen to conference better...especially if they are napping!

When:Oct 5th
Where: Brown Co...location to be determined
Dinner Time: 6:30
Kids Bedtime: Dark
Parents: well we can stay up and play games and eat dutch oven dessertt.

Email me back if you are interested and we can make more definite plans! Doesn't dutch oven cooking, tinfoil dinners, smores and bread pies sound amazing right now!...oh and Hot Chocolate too!

First Day of School!

Introducing Odious!

Actually its Odysseus but we call him Odi. He is our new Zebra Finch. The kids love him and he is a lot of fun. He sounds like a sqweeky toy but quiets down at night. Ehre and Ben do well to feed him each day. Elise and Beck love to sit and watch/listen to him. Jeff says its NOT his pet... I think we will manage fine with him.

Welcome Home Dad!

Jeff has been in DC since Monday and we have missed him terribly. Since this is his second trip in two months and not his last, the kids and I decided to make him a reusable banner. The kids helped me pick out paper, I added the message and then laminated it. I think eventually we will do a birthday one as well, its so cute!
