What's Going On?

A few things that are going on in our lives right now...things that I probably won't remember.  Things I will be glad I wrote down when read this in years to come.

Colson loves to read his books at night before bed but is up and down all of the time.  He lays down to read on the floor...then goes to hide in the cupboard, then comes back to read, then stacks his books, then gets under his crib, then comes back to read and so on.  Finally, we just turn the light off, which he doesn't like.  But then we sit and snuggle in the rocking chair, sing, talk about the day and laugh.  That is really my favorite part!

Cannon is very into Angry Birds, which he plays on my phone.  We are still a video-game free house and we are hoping to keep it that way for as long as we can.  However Angry Birds was introduced to Cannon by a friend and for a short time every once in a while, I don't think it will hurt anything.  Today, Cannon learned that he needed to "think of a different way to solve the problem" on the game and is also learning patience!

Chris is in Oregon for work.  He left early this morning (4am) to catch a 6am flight.  He is still down in Medford and will be bidding on a big truck for the company.  He's not sure when he is coming home and things are all unknown until after the auction.  He may be flying home tomorrow afternoon or tomorrow night or Thursday morning.

Cannon has started swimming and loves it.  He hasn't had lessons in about 6 months, so this is a good refresher course for him.  Colson loves going and watching, running around, playing with the other younger siblings and smiling at everyone.

The cats, AC mostly (I think) has been bringing in dead, sometimes half eaten mice to "show off."  Sometimes they are right by the front door, or in the kitchen.  Sometimes they are in the living room.  Sometimes he brings them in still partially alive and uses them as play toys.  Totally. Gross.

We are counting the days until Arizona!  Can't wait to get to some warmer weather and some relaxation!

Enjoying every moment.
