Look what we FINALLY did!

Levi received some nice matching frames from a nice friend last week who was moving. We have always envisioned our family photos in something like what she gave us. So, I was very excited to get to work. Unfortunately, since moving, all of our pictures were neatly (well, not that neatly) packed away in a couple of boxes...and now they are not (as you see here). 

But, look at the progress we made! We finally put pictures we've had for 5 years in boxes, in frames and on the walls! Yay!

Now, the next 2 pictures are examples of me and Levi's personalities. I put up these 2 frames in a matter of 10 minutes. Kinda measured, the pictures don't fully fill out the mat, but its what I had and I wanted to hang them. I got it done...



Here you see Levi, using a leveler, measured out every millimeter from all sides of each frame and made me search for 2 pictures of Mason to go with the 2 pictures of Logan, so it would all flow well. His project took an hour & a half. Hmf. 


Friday the 13th

As you can see, it was far from scary for us. I have loved watching this rose bush bloom over the past few weeks. The rain really brought it out! When we moved in, it was all dried up. Now look how beautiful!

Tree trimming anyone?

Last Thursday, we (me and Logan) were curious to know who was using a chainsaw for a great part of the day. I looked out our back window and sure enough a man was up one of those gigantic 5 story palm trees cutting it down 2 feet at a time. I watched him most of the mid-day. It was amazing that he didn't cut his arm off, fall or who knows what! That is definitely a job I would not do!

Playing with the girls...kinda

So, Mason had a playdate after school last week. The girls were playing with Polypockets at the table since there are many tiny pieces Logan could swallow. Since he had to play too, he was under the table with a princess and a mini my little pony banging them on the floor together just like he thought the girls were doing a few feet up! Priceless!

Gardening

So, after Levi ran 17 MILES, had some breakfast, a shower, cut his and Logan's hair, he decided to plant some veggies in a bare patch of our flower garden. Just your average, white male American Saturday... HA! I'm married to the biggest over achiever and I love it! This summer, hopefully, we will be enjoying: bell peppers, tomatoes, sweet peas, strawberries, peppers and who knows what else thanks to this awesome man in the cowboy hat below!




My 1st buzz cut

Saturday, March 7th...Today was a spontaneous day. Dad cut his hair. Dad saw Logan. Dad cut Logan's hair...A LOT! Logie got his first buzz cut. He was actually pretty cool with the procedure. I held him and Dad buzzed all of his hair off with the clippers. He was going to go shorter, but I insisted it be the longest length. Now, my little boy baby, doesn't look so little any more! 



Friends

So, Logan is friends with Delilah. She is one of his few baby friends who is a few months younger than him. We think he might even say her name sometimes. He recognizes her (and her mom, Kristal) from afar (like at church) and must go over to her. It is very hard to distract him once he's seen her. The relationship is a kind of love/hate though. Well, its really love - he loves to pound her face with his hand and she hates it! Delilah likes him as long as he's out of hitting range. So, hopefully, this hitting thing is just a phase and he will be more gentle with age. Otherwise, mom will go crazy!
