Under Construction

Forgive the mess, I am playing around with Blogger so things might look a little messy for awhile. :-)

Our Snowman Friend

The weather has been 'warm' the last couple of days and Noah and I have finally gotten some wet snow to make a snowman.  I basically did the construction of it while Noah threw a couple snowballs at me and dug in the snow but then he added the arms, nose, eyes and buttons and I have to say we have a pretty handsome snowman greeting everyone that walks in our front door.

 Oh and as soon as he was complete Noah really wanted to knock him down, but I talked him into waiting until tomorrow.

Our Little Pilot

I didn't realize until yesterday when Noah and I were needing something a little new to entertain us that he has started to gather a collection of 'dress-up' clothes, mostly past Halloween costumes but always fun to dress up an pretend. 

Any cheap and easy, throw together (items around the house) costumes you all could share for me to add to the collection?

Snow Fun

Here is a little taste of the winter we are having here with all of our snow. 

And no laughing at me (the 26 week pregnant momma) trying to get the sled to go!  :-)

We are in for it

if Noah's little brother is just as cute and charming as he is!!

I am not entirely sure what his intentions were with these poses but he is just so darn cute and silly that I had to share!

Nesting

I am at week 25 now and boy do I have a feeling I am going to get big AND the nesting stage has begun.  I sat down tonight and David and I made a list of what needs to be brought in from garage storage and what needs to be moved out of the current guest room, that will become the nursery, and what needs to be moved out of the office in order for the office to double as a guest room!! 
Luckily our shopping list isn't that big just a couple items we are using Noah's crib and a dresser and chair from my room growing up so that helps with the big pieces of furniture.  I hope to post pictures along the way or at least when the rooms are completed. 
While cleaning/organizing the office tonight I came across a couple boxes of my old high school pictures and pictures of our college years.  Now I love to scrapbook but not that far back!  What do I do with these boxes of pictures?  Any suggestions?....it seems dumb to leave them in boxes and put them in storage but then again I am not really missing them, I suppose someday our kids might like to see them and make fun of us.....?  Yikes, what to do, what to do?

Christmas 2010 (aka: a lot of pictures)

 

 I bet you didn't know dinosaurs and Lightening McQueen were at the birth of Jesus.

 Noah probably trusting his parents a little too much by getting into that box and letting us push him down the small hill in our yard. 

 Almond bark goodness and a Christmas movie.

 Our first Christmas morning in our home!!

 Noah loves opening presents - he helped everyone unwrap.

 A dishtowel and hockey sticks make a great batman costume...at least that is what a certain 3-year old told me.

 More presents!!

 How many adults does is take to put together a puzzle for ages 3+ (sorry ladies, I had to give you a hard time)

 A little bit of lacing with aunties.

 A little bit of wrestling with Papa

 Plugging into Dad's iTouch.

 The family (minus Rami)

 Noah and baby Jack!  (I can't wait to see him with his little brother, hopefully he will still be smiling)

Max, Noah and Gus!
