Hanging with Uncle Stevie

Nathaniel just wants to be one of the boys. They were watching a blazer game together.

Learning to brush our teeth

I usually try to brush Nathaniel's teeth before I put the bubble gum toothpaste on the brush (it's training toothpaste that is not harmful if swallowed). It's so funny to hear the sucking sounds as he savors the toothpaste. I try to get him to move the brush over his teeth, mostly I'm unsuccesful. Oh well. It gives me a minute to brush my teeth anyway.

Doors and Molding Project update

Before

After



We did it!!!! We were actually a couple boardfeet short at the end of the day, so we ran off to Home Depot and got the boards and painted them. Thankfully they were dry enough to install on Friday. We've almost got everything moved back into it's proper place though. It looks soooo nice!

Playing Peek-a-Boo

Nathaniel likes to play Peek-a-Boo. Sometimes it takes me a minute to figure out what he is doing. Usually he initiates it and I end up saying where's Nathaniel... he moves the towel... There he is! What a sweet boy.

US News & World Report

My little guy reading up on the latest issue of US News and World Report. He found it in Daddy's backpack for work. Look closely at the cover story. How funny! Guess he wants to be like my Grandpa Jerry (93 and still going strong!)

Doors and Molding Project Phase 2

I'm up to my ears in paint! No sooner did we get our new counter tops in and the dishwasher installed that we are starting on yet another project. I'm hoping this is the last one (that I have to be involved in) for a while. We have 7 doors precariously placed in the garage so we can paint both sides. We have 200+ feet of molding to be painted. I think our neighbors think we are crazy... always up to something! At some point we will need to move indoors and paint the hallway and the bedroom and the banister, and anything else that jumps out at us.

Working on more teeth

I see a few molars coming in... no wait, where did they go... oh there they are. These new teeth will not make up there mind when they are actually going to appear. Nate has slept from 11-2pm the last 3 days in a row (of which I am very grateful!) and I'm guessing it's due to all the hard work his little body is doing to get those teeth in.
