Little Bit of Everything, interesting or not!!

Yea, it is October! I love October! I love the weather, the colors, the smell, the leaves, and mostly the feeling I get when it is October. Due to the nice weather, I have been able to open the windows to the house for the past few days and enjoy the breeze blowing through. You just can't beat that!! I am opening the windows even though it is making my allergies act up!! My only concern with opening the windows is that everyone outside can hear if my kids start acting out or crying or mommy yelling or any of our dirty laundry that may go on during the day! Still, the pros out way the cons! What baffles me most in this glorious weather is how no one else seems to have their windows open. I wonder how come they do not want to enjoy natures air conditioner. The only thing I can think is maybe they have more dirty laundry than us!!! :)


The above pictures show a bird house Mason built. Mason deemed it a "Bird Condo" .... however this condo has been ready for a few weeks now and it is still sitting in the garage. I guess the rough economic times are hurting the birds line of credit too!! Anyways, the kids enjoyed painting the condo. I was worried about the paint job that would be done as the kids wanted blue, green, red, yellow, pink, and purple paint. I was very worried the neighbors would be jealous and the birds would be fighting over who gets to take up residency in this new home. Well .... as the kids painted, and painted, and painted, it all became purple! I was kinda expecting a brownish color only found in diapers, so purple is definitely better. Needless to say, the kids really enjoyed painting the condo for the birds and hopefully with this bailout plan passed by the government, the birds can get a loan to get the condo actually up in the tree for them to enjoy! :)


This picture is actually very funny. After the kids painted the condo and no one was really paying attention anymore (silly Mommy and Daddy), Tyler had an "accident", as he puts it! I find it humorous how an "accident" can take your hands to the paint, then take your hands to the floor to leave a hand print, then back to the paint, back to the floor, back to the paint, back to the floor, (shall I continue?) ..... If those actions were unintentional and purely accidental, boy Mason and I better brace ourselves for the future!!!


Today I had a Doctors appt. to check on baby. I am now 29 weeks and everything is going fine. Here is probably the last picture of baby until he arrives. Thought you might like to see it. There was another picture looking straight at his face but I think it is one of those faces only a mother could love. He had very chubby cheeks, but only high up on the cheekbones, then the remainder of the face kinda came to a V by the chin. He appeared to be grinning with very bony, bucked teeth. Oh yes, his nose .... it was more of an outline with a big hole in the middle!! I decided NOT to share that picture! :) Oh yea, baby still doesn't have a name in case you were wondering!
