This is random…


It occurred to me the other day that I have a blog. I actually forgot. I thought, hey maybe I should post something. But I couldn't think of a single thing to post about. Well, here I am, trying to update my blog with the nothingness that's been going on.

We've been sort of just vegging for the last couple weeks. I normally have my camera with me everywhere.... since Halloween I've taken 2 pictures, that's it! And I've only logged onto facebook a couple time, can you believe it. We haven't even been watching tv. I'm so confused... what have we been doing? I guess just enjoying each other. And it feels pretty good. Reagan and I sat in chairs this afternoon looking out the front window at the boys play outside. We just sat. I wasn't thinking about anything except how blessed and happy I am to be able to stay at home with my kids so I can just sit next to them and share oatmeal cookies.


My mom visited this last week during Shawn's fall break. We just hung out. Here's everyone piled on the couch.


Shawn had almost a whole week off. We got to go on a date! We got up early and were getting ready for the temple when I realized my recommend had expired in October. So, we decided to visit the Japanese gardens at 9am (they open at 10). So, we went to Target.


I helped in Jefferson's kindergarten class. Now, that was fun! I wish I could do it more often.


I got a flat tire and tried to fix it myself. I unsuccessfully tried for a good 45 minutes. Luckily a trucker (female) stopped to help me out. All Shawn says is "Why didn't you call AAA?" I don't know.


Grant potty trained himself and he's 100% trained. Awesome! He insists that he has to take off all of his clothes in order to sit on the toilet. It causes some problems when we're out in public.


Reagan stopped taking naps. This is my worst nightmare. Aren't kids supposed to take naps until they're 3 or more? Jefferson probably still could take a nap. Grant stopped taking naps at 2 and I thought I would die. Reagan just plays and plays and makes a royal mess of her room during naptime. AHHH!


I washed a load of laundry with 3 crayons and ruined the whole load… joy!


I got a new pair of pants at Old Navy for 80 cents


Jefferson has been working on a circus production for tomorrow. He made invitations and passed them out to people.

and that, my friends, is all I can rack my brain to tell you.
We're looking forward to Thanksgiving. My dad is coming up to visit. And Shawn will be out of school again, yeah!


Something cute…
When the boys are driving her crazy, Reagan makes herself a resting place under the kitchen table and lays down... to get away from it all. This is how I feel right now

I love random posts! They give me a little insight into your world. I can't believe you got a pair of pants for 80 cents, but that's because you are a size 0 and those are the sizes that are always left! You look amazing! Glad you're enjoying each other!

Ya I have been wondering where you have been. Being a blogger slacker myself, I live my updates out through you. When you don't post I am lost;) Glad you guys have been doing good. I have also been waiting to see your projects for this christmas. I would love to steal some ideas from you! I think I am going to attempt to make cadance and brody each a little waldorf doll...we will see.
Take Care

Hi! I'm super impressed with the 80 cent pants and I LOVE the pillows Reagan is laying on. Did you make them? I'm so sorry about the naps ending too--you need some down time! Call me sometime and we'll come visit you in Forest Grove. Have a great Thanksgiving, hope to see you soon!!!
