when Daddy makes Cooks


So, Nathan claimed he could make Snickerdoodles really well, he rolled up his sleeves and went at it, which means he is focused and works on the task at hand, regardless of the mess he could possibly be making!

Turned out to be a family affair.









I attempted to clean up Sunday dinner and Brycen was all about helping me, so in the sink
he went. Happy as can be!


















Yes, they are different outfits, same principle, always into stuff!











Corbin and Savannah patiently waiting and begging for cookie dough!


















Had to add one of Tanner, represents him perfectly! It was "When in Rome do as the Romans Do" he was a Roman God and I was his slave. He is motioning me for more food. He LOVED the idea behind it all!


Well, bummed I do no have a finished product of Nathan's hard (messy) work. But, just for the record, the Snickerdoodles were delicious!




Some Funnies:

Corbin pushes his trains all over this house, forehead down next to the ground or rubbing on the ground. I could hear him talking and pushing his train (Bill) to my bedroom he pushed it right up to the bathroom door "Mom can you see my buffers?"

Tonight, he was hiding behind the couch as I was feeding Brycen, I asked him why he was out of bed, "because Mom, it is just taking a really long time for the morning light to come".

During a cold of his, I told him if we eat Green Beans, it will help you get better (always trying to be tricky with this kid) and so now, whenever he does not feel well, he asks me for some beans to help his body get better.

I am sure there will be more to come from this kid!

Yes, we are here, we are here!

The New Year is upon me and I have made the Resolution (they just are meant to be broken) that I will blog more often. haha.

Lots of fun blah blah blah Family stuff the past couple months. I know all are so so interested in my kids. But, a few funny moments, biased from the Mom's point of view.

Nathan the human jungle gym. (I know I just put a picture on of him, but it is all too frequent)The kids pile and jump on him and he lays flat on the floor. I think it looks sort of relaxing. Right? He pulls them in and calls them his Kid Salad, then eats them up. I am usually cleaning up dinner and I love to watch.

Sometimes you just have to tower the kids on shoulders. Easier that way!






Brycen usually watches from a distance, and babbles at the kids, but this night he just had to join in.




The latest Lincoln Log production. Savannah, Nathan and I constructed the tower to see how high. Pretty cool eh?





So, the next kid-ism, if you will is Brycen and Corbs. See, we three are together all day while the older kids are at school. Corbin often "is a baby" and acts and does just what Brycen does. If Brycen goes by the stairs well, Corbs does too. I will say No No Brycen, so Corbs pipes up with "I am a baby too, so tell me" Sometimes it is a fun game for all of us, other times, well, drives me bonkers!

Here Corbs is the baby and Brycen is the "I am in for the free ride" boy!


did anyone notice the matching shirts. Two little blonde babies with blue eyes and matching shirts ahhh.

stay tuned for more kid fun! Right?
