Landon's Mini Me

Carter tries to be like Landon ALL THE TIME.  Tonight he needed to comb his hair.  I don't think Carter has ever seen Landon comb his hair.  However, he did a pretty good job for not having much of a role model in that category.

Carter's Band Aid Mustache

It always cracks me up when kids want band aids on their mouth or eyes.  Carter was messing around in the garage, standing on a cooler, and lost his balance and bounced his face off the garage floor.  He had a fat bloody lip and a little scrape above his eye, but he was fine later in day, when it was time to go fishing.

Easter in Watford City

We went to Watford City for Easter, and did all the usual Easter fun.

Yay!  We made it through church.

A Day at Home With Dad

Over the weekend the stars aligned perfectly...

 We ended up with 7 inches of wet snow with 30 degree weather, making the roads nearly impassable.
The regular babysitter had planned to take the Monday off.
Carter woke up with a cough and snot, making it unacceptable to take him to the back up sitter, AKA Grandma Sue, since she is headed out of town soon and can't risk a cold.
Kristie and Taylor were both stuck in Billings and couldn't cover for me at work, on payroll day.

So, Landon stayed home with the boys so I could creep to work in the truck at 35 mph to make sure everyone got paid.

It was warm enough this afternoon to get outside and make a fort.  Landon said Carter supervised while Henry ate snow.  I think Landon had the most fun.  I can't wait to see what they build when they are a little older and want to help.

Henry wasn't very happy about taking a picture and just wanted some "Momma" since I was gone all day.  I was only home for a few minutes before having to leave again for a Town Council meeting.  When I got home the boys were quietly playing in Henry's room while Landon made calls to the firemen about training.  Then we heard a few thuds.  I figured they were just trying to get to the bottom of the toybox...

NOPE!

I tried to put the shelves back in so they could start picking up but the little stinkers even went as far as taking the shelf pegs out and putting them into different holes.  At least they didn't empty the closet.

Other than coming home to this disaster, the house was cleaned up, including the inside of the fridge, which I hate to do.  

New Hair Cuts

No more curls for this little man.  At least not for a few more months.

Henry is usually the kids that never sits still, unless he's getting his hair cut.  Then he just sits and enjoys the attention.  Today Carter was the kid that wouldn't sit still.  Maybe he can't sit still because there is so much to learn, so many questions to ask, so many things to look at.  It probably doesn't help that the hairdresser is also known as Aunt Kristie and not a stranger that might cut his ear off if he makes one wrong move.

More HAH Fashion

I've been trying to come up with a name for the clothing line that Henry is going to design.  I guess 'design' isn't the correct term.  He probably won't make the clothes, just put together the outfits.

And here is Henry.  He's wearing Old Navy Argyle slippers, a Buzz Lightyear colorblocked pj shirt by Carter's, a custom made military coat complete with authentic badges and name patch and is topping off his ensemble with a red Mickey Mouse hat with safari flaps.

 

And this is Henry.  He's 2 years old and is wearing blue hibiscus swim trunks, a cuddly blanket cape and hiking boots by Hush Puppies. 

And finishing up our fashion show is Henry.  He is wearing tan hooker boots by Keen, a size 4 diaper by Luvs, and his favorite orange camo hat by Cabelas.

This kid cracks me up.  These are pictures all taken in one weeks time.  I've posted others before, but he's too funny not to keep posting with these crazy outfits.

Henry and Fashion, Not in the Same Sentence

 I couldn't wait for the flash to charge so this picture is a little dark.  It seems like most days I have to take the picture NOW without a flash or risk losing the opportunity altogether.

2/12/13

I just hope that as his taste in fashion changes, it changes to include pants.

ND Fun

We got to meet Collins for the first time, and Carter really liked her.  So much that he said we should get a baby. 

 

We road in the bobcat...

We road snowmobiles and 4 wheelers (Henry was really mad when we were done)...

 We played hockey in Papa Mike's shop...

And we had rides on the dolly...

that led to...

The boys don't normally fall asleep anywhere other than their beds or their car seats, so this is a first for us.  He slept on the dolly for about half an hour.  Long enough that we just propped him up and left him...

until Grandma felt sorry for him and picked him up.
