Aidanisms

- Ever since Father's Day Aidan continues to ask me if it's "Aidan Day!" When I tell him that it's not, he starts crying and saying, "It is Aidan Day." Luckily his birthday is not too far around the corner.
- Yesterday I was calling Aidan a raggin-muffin because his hair is so long, maybe even the longest it has ever been. When I called him a ragging-muffin he informed me, "I not a raggin-muffin, I'm Aidan." I kept calling him the same thing and he kept telling me the same thing. It gave me a good laugh.
- Through the mouth of Aidan: Swimsoup= Swimsuit, wuv= love, skool= stool, sparkle= freckle, his friend Logan= Gogan
- Today in the car Aidan told me he had to go potty, and I told him to hold it: he then proceeded to hold it... literally!
- Aidan loves other kids! He calls them "my friends" or "my kids" and he believes that the soul purpose of every other person on this earth is to be his friend.

So long, so blonde!

In most of the pics of Brinn that I put on here she has a nice big bow on so it is hard to see her hair. Her hair is really starting to grow, and it has also gotten really light. When she was born her hair was a dark brown but now it is anything from light brown, to red, to blonde depending on the light. Come to think of it, her eyes also change colors depending on the light from green to hazel. I think we will just start calling her our little camilion.

Fun Fabrics!!!

I bought these fun fabrics the other day at the store, and I don't have a clue what I am going to do with them. Actually, I have one idea in mind so stay tuned... but if you have any fun fairly simple project ideas let me know!

A visit from a friend...

My friend JJ came for a couple of days to visit us in San Antonio. It was so fun to see her, we had a blast! We went to high school together but over the last couple years her husband and her have been teaching abroad so we have had to take advantage of the summers when they are home. David, Aidan, and I were able to go visit them in Egypt a couple years ago and we hope to be able to go visit them this upcoming year in the Philippines... (this time without the kids :) It is so nice to have friends who you can only see once a year, or even less, but when your together you can pick right up where you left off and it's never awkward.


Thanks so much for coming JJ, you are welcome anytime!

9 Months Old

Brinn is now 9 months old... where did the time go? Here are a few pics of her from the other day.
We started on the grass... which apparently she does not like!

So to the porch we went... much better!

I love this picture because most of the time she has her little tongue sticking out between that big grin.

Father's Day Karaoke!

This year for Father's Day we were lucky enough to have David's parents in town, as well as my brother Austin and my parents over for dinner. We had a great time! After dinner we busted out the karaoke... and managed to get everyone to participate! The following clips for the next few post are mostly for the enjoyment of family that will undoubtedly cause them a little chuckle.

David's Dad

Go Alan... plus a little of everyone!

My Dad

Love ya Dad! Please don't disown me :)
