Kids

Heard in the car on the way home from church yesterday:

K1: "A2, are you still awake?"

A2: "No."

3 months and sleep

This is one cute 3 month boy! He is not generous with his smiles, but he is a very happy and content boy. Yesterday, he laughed for the first time. His big sister, K1, was talking to him and he must have found something funny because he started doing a little belly laugh.




On another note, the past 5 consecutive nights, he has either slept 10 or 11 hours straight! He wakes up happy and talking, which makes me a happy camper as well.

Twenty-seven minutes from the time they (the 3 guys who laid the sod) pulled in the driveway until they left! Here are the results...

Flickr

Well, I didn't take the time to figure out how post more than one picture at a time from Flickr. Maybe tomorrow. And, I will post some pictures of the sod which went in today. It took 27 minutes from the time the 3 guys drove in the driveway to the time they exited the driveway! It was an amazing process to watch.

Anyway, time for bed.

One day's work

There is a fence in the back - actually two. We didn't know there was a chain link one as well.

One day's work

This is what one day of work (not by me, since I was sick with fever and throwing up) by my husband, brothers, and parents will reap.

Another Yard Pic

I didn't know how much cement was under this. You will see in the after shots.

We are in!

Well, we got the keys and we have been living in our new house for 2 and 1/2 weeks now. Soon I will post pictures of before and after the move. Many things have changed. I am going to try and post pictures from my Flickr account...
