Tuesday.

Zachary has an appointment today with an ENT doctor. I'll post an update on that later.

Last week, the 3 boys and I got our flu mist.

Then twins will be 3 on Friday and their party is on Saturday. I have ordered 3 cakes and the theme is Toy Story, and only because there are no Ghostbuster party supplies. I shopped online for all the party supplies, and that is the only way I'll do it from now on. So convenient and here two days later.

Ryan is well and chatting up a storm. We are slowly breaking them of their favorite sippy cups. Hopefully potty training will click soon too.

I have photos of Thanksgiving and the Christmas tree to post later. I am just behind on everything except house cleaning and reading..

Jason had his 6 month check up yesterday at the dentist, with a new dentist. All his teeth are perfect, which is great considering I told him that I'd kick him out of the house if he got any cavities. Now that his 6 year molars are in and permanent, he will get them sealed in the next month or so, when the Life slows down.

Public Service Announcement.

Toddlers are not barbers. Zachary got a hold of scissors today and decided he needed a haircut (it's true, he does) but usually we have daddy do it, not two year olds. He was suppose to be in the bathroom washing off all the pudding on his face and brushing his teeth. After just minutes, I walked in to check on him, and he had the scissors going in his hand on his hair. I was "agh" but calm. I told him no and that it is unacceptable to cut your own hair before kindergarten. I hoisted him up to the counter, thinking I needed to see the damage, but surprisingly, he didn't whack it too bad. There was a lot of hair on the floor, but he just thinned it out in one spot. Note: See Bald Patch in Above Photo. More photos on flickr later.

The Dake Tribe on Sunday in Snow.

Our First Minnesota Snow.

And I owe it all to you...

Ryan Christian.

The kid has talent.

These are just everyday drawings by Jason. He is amazing with a pencil. He is amazing always. Click on photo to see larger and they are on flickr. They are photos of the pages, my scanner is evil.

Halloween Part Three: Zombie.

Here was my zombie on Halloween. Scary. Adorable. Gross. Cute. Everyone loved his costume and his face paint, done by Daddy. He did do an amazing job. I love them both. Alive or Living Dead. Eek! More photos from all 3 days on flickr later. Click on photos to make them larger.
