Life

 Saying the scripture at church.

 My living room was clean for a few minutes, so it had to be documented.

 The brown ottoman is not a permanent thing, but I put it there for now since I'm supposed to sit and put my feet up as much as I can these days. ;)

 Britton doesn't think it's very comfortable when I hold him anymore, especially if he's tired he prefers that dad be the one holding him... unless I'm sitting down, then apparently my stomach makes a great pillow. ☺

Oh yeah...

THIS is why I don't have pictures of the three of them lately.

 Aidan didn't have school yesterday, so I thought we'd take the opportunity with him around to get a photo.
Good times, good times...

26 Weeks

Friday

 Woke up to rain/ snow Friday morning and it snowed throughout the day.

 Later in the afternoon and it had built up quite a bit. (Ella and Britton walking with Grandma Lois)

 That night was the Harvest Festival in Baker (potluck and auction fundraiser for the Baker/ Garrison schools)

 Aidan didn't understand how the whole auction bidding thing worked so he was getting very mad at me for not raising my hand, or letting him raise his hand when they were auctioning off stuff that I knew neither he nor I wanted. ☺
Me: "Aidan, do you want a purse?" (bamboo steamer, plant stand, etc...)
Aidan: "No!"
Me: "Then don't raise your hand!!!"

 They finally auctioned off some kids books and Aidan finally got to raise his hand and bid on something. Grandma Lois let him bid on this bug book that came with a magnifying glass (and bugs) and they bought it, so Aidan was finally satisfied. ☺

The end of Fall?

 We were outside today enjoying what may be the last of nice weather for awhile (the wind is currently howling outside). Cary was blowing out our sprinklers since it's supposed be pretty cold this weekend.

 Britton is really into holding hands and giving hugs right now. It's really cute. He's also really into NOT taking naps anymore. Not so cute. (The time change really messed up his napping schedule)

 I wanted to get a picture of all three of them, but Ella was being a party pooper.

 I guess technically all three are in the picture. ☺

Time Change

 You never know how kids are going to react to the time change, and you always hope they won't even notice. (ha, ha, ha, ha!)

Aidan and Britton were up Sunday morning at 6:00 demanding breakfast.

Naturally, this morning around 7:00 when Aidan is supposed to be getting out of bed for school, I have drag him out and prop his eyes open. WHY?!

Ella and Britton were ready to go to bed tonight at 5:00.
Hoping for a smoother transition tomorrow. ☺

Weekend

 Reading on a lazy Saturday afternoon

 Playing with nerf bullets and bouncy balls

 Sharon finished Aidan's quilt that she started for his birthday. He loves it!

 Ella painting, "her girls" (Strawberry Shortcake and friends).

 I decided this morning that it was hair cutting day, so here are some before and afters. I'm not sure what was up with the really goofy grins. ☺

 Today is my dad's birthday and we had a little dinner party for him tonight. Ella and my mom were making pie.

Ella made herself a little pie, but she didn't want any fruit in it. :D

Unfortunately, I didn't get anymore pictures from the party tonight.
