Day...
Sarah has been growing her hair out for some time and only has the ends trimmed when needed.  One of the down falls to having  long curly hair is it tends to get very tangled.  Sarah is in pain when we try to brush her hair, basically it is an on going battle.  Chad and I found a solution in order to make brushing Sarah's hair not only less painful for her but stress free for Chad and I.  The first step involved Chad buying Sarah a big brush made for curly hair. What a great dad for taking the time to search for that type of brush at Target.  Sarah absolutely loved the new brush because she said it looked just like Rapunzel's and it did not hurt.  Step two involved me buying a more expensive shampoo and condition from a salon.  Since I am behind on blogging I am excited to inform everyone the hair brush battles are over and everyone is happy!  Sarah's hair looks more healtheir than ever, not only because she now  brushes her own hair more than once a day (mom and dad help when needed) but because of the salon products purchased.

Day....
This is Jumper, well that is what Sarah and Adam named this squirrel.  He has become part of our family I guess.   Ever since we  started putting raw peanuts in the backyard for the squirrel's to eat, Jumper comes to visit  us at least twice a day.  In the morning we usually see him outside the kitchen window, running back and forth on the fence.  This picture was taken from the kitchen window.  We usually wake up and feed the fish first, then the cats, and  now we feed Jumper!  Don't worry everyone, Jumper does not eat from our hands, we just toss a few peanuts out on the patio.  He usually grabs them and takes off  right back to his saf place, the white fence or  the oak tree!

Day

We have a garage full of Chad's old toys from when he was a child.  Since we have moved into the new house, we have been sorting through the toys that Sarah and Adam are ready play with. I can't get over how many Lego's my husband had as a child.   Sarah and Adam were so excited about all the Lego's they decided to dump them all out, right on top of  Sarah's bed.  I think they did this because I was washing Sarah's bedding, plus they did not want Hunter to get any of the pieces in his mouth. They played with the Lego's for hours and hours  making, boats, airplanes, helicopters and you name it, they made it or asked me to help them.  I love when new toys appear because it keeps Sarah and Adam's attention for days.  I like it even more when I hide a toy or toys for a few months and when I bring them back out, you would think it was their birthday's all over again.

Day


Today I taught in Adam's class and had a chance to take a photo and observe him lacing.  He is very good at it and actually shows patience.  He sat at the table for twenty minutes just lacing away.

Day..

Don't worry everyone I am really behind on blogging but I still am taking a picture or pictures everyday.  With subbing, watching Hunter, and all the other crazy stuff moms do, blogging has fell to the waist side.  I may not be posting everyday but I am still sticking to my resolustion by taking photos.  Anyway, Sarah's class had a sink or float day at school.  She had to bring in somthing that she thought would float and something she thought would sink.  Mrs. Smith, Sarah's teacher posted the results on the door for all the parents to see at the end of the day.  Click on the picture to see the results!
