I HATE it when I wake up at 3:30am and can't get back to sleep! It's now 5:20 and I have given up all hope of going back to sleep and allowed myself to get up. I think I am going to go clean my room! But please don't call me today between 1-3 because I plan on sneaking a nap with the kiddos. :)
I love it when something so basic makes me so happy!!! This filing cabinet was long overdue.
What makes me even more happy: $30 on Craigslist.
Sometimes I babysit my friends kids while she is in school. Yesterday I was watching her little boy. Aidan and Austin played...
Dog, of course!
Hide and Seek
Counting (or something like it)...

To finish off the day Aidan played with play dough. Why is he pushing the play dough with his head you might ask?
Me: "Aidan, why are you smashing the play dough with your head?"
Aidan: "Because my hands aren't hard."
Good to know the little man has problem solving skills!
Question: What could be more fun than being pushed around in a basket by your brother?
Answer: How about when he climbs in with you!
Brinn started to take several steps at a time in the last week or so. Today she really mastered it with the help of a cookie at each end bribing her. Won't be long before she is all over the place.
Here are some random cute pics of what my kiddos have been up to.
Aidan sporting the comb-over. In honor of conference I thought Aidan should look his best ;)
Aidan went to his friends b-day party at this cute art shop. Aidan LOVED it!
We have a ferret named Daisy and Aidan just loves her! The other day he put her in this Halloween basket and thought that it was the funniest thing. 
The other day I was taking this picture and I said, "Aidan, show me your good smile." And I took this picture.
Then he said, "Do you want to see my bad smile?" And I took this picture.
Aidan found his summer swim toys at my moms house and came around the corner sporting this....
Big girl Brinn has discovered how to open the cupboards in the kitchen, much to my dismay. Needless to say, locks will be going on soon!
Brinn showing us that she is a "BIG GIRL."
Brinn seemed so proud that she could maneuver 3 crackers at once. That's my girl!
Just wanted to let everyone know that I finally posted some new pages on Scrap On Scrappers. Check them out! I may not post often but I post as often as I finish pages... which does not say much!
This past week we actually had Family Home Evening and it was so fun! It makes me wonder why it has taken me so long to get my act together and plan a little lesson and a fun activity. Aidan loved the lesson and we actually have referred to it several times this week as the topic was "Love at home" ie. sharing, listening to mom and dad. After the lesson we made cookies "with a pinch of love" (inside joke.)
Aidan is such a helper!
Dad even let Brinn dig in to the dough! It was her lucky day!
A fun night!
