Henry - June 2011

I think he might have brown eyes!

Carter - June 2011

Carter is going to "wook". He is Landon's mini me and has started going to work. He'll grab his backpack, or a diaper bag, or lunch cooler and tell me goodbye, i love you, and start heading for the door. When asked where he's going he'll say "to wook". Pretty funny little man.
Joy and Dwite, good family friends that go way back to Landon's childhood, gave us a gift for Henry - a cute little outfit and the Tickle Monster book. Carter thinks everything is for him so he snatched up the book right away. It comes with Tickle Monster hands, like gloves with finger cut outs. You all know that Carter likes to sleep with the newest toy or book and last night was no exception. He had to sleep with the gloves on. They are for adults so they didn't stay on all night. I think we've ready the book 20 times since we opened it on Friday night.

Carters New Hairdo-Before and After

I think Carter aged at least a year after his hair cut. I was cutting Landons hair and little Me Too grabbed a towel and sat down on a chair and waited for his turn. I didn't think he'd really sit through an entire hair cut, so I just ran the clippers over his hair upside down a few times pretending that I was cutting it. He wanted more and kept up with the Me Too's so I did it. He didn't care for trimming around his ears and wouldn't really let me touch up with the scissors so he does have a few stray hairs that I've been cutting when I get the chance. His poor little blond hair isn't much of a sun screen for his scalp, but he wears a hat most of the time.

Tonight's Dinner Special...

Ooops. Lesson learned. Check the grill before turning it on. I thought it was smoking more than usual but figured it was just burning off the leftovers from the last time we grilled. Landon got a facefull of smoke and burning plastic just as he was about to put on our tasty ribeyes. (I know, ribeyes, how do you get a ribeye off a deer? Beef, it's whats for dinner, tonight, thanks to some over enthusiastic shopping by Landon's boss, thanks Tyler!) Good thing we have two grills, now if only the big grill would hurry up and cook faster.
