Day 39...Watermelon Party

Daddy and I both had to work today, so we scrambled for a babysitter.  Papa and Sue Sue made the trip over from Klamath Falls to come to our aid.  They are taking the kids camping all next week, so they came in to town to pick them up.  So off to work I went, and the kids just played and played. 

When I got home, there was a great steak dinner ready.  After that we went out front to enjoy some yummy watermelon.  Rob was pissed the paparazzi had trailed him yet again.

Bodie didn't mind however.  In fact he posed.

Doesn't everyone hang out in their underwear in their front yards?  Isn't that the American way?  Well, its the Bodie way...

So some delicious watermelon.

Rhys had the best view from on top of Daddy's stomach.

Day 38...Another haircut

**I have been taking pictures everyday, true to my original promise.  However, I have been working a lot the past few days so I have neglected actually writing the posts.  Sorry.  But without further ado...

We have been trying to get some things ready for the kids upcoming birthday party.  So I got their shirts designed and ready.  Now I just need one for Rhys.

The next thing on our to-do list was to tame the crazy man's hair.  Yep, Bodie needed another haircut.    So before...

And after. Isn't he so cute.  I just might be partial.

Day 37...A fire!

Sorry I didn't get around to a post yesterday.  We had an emergency.  A fire in the dollhouse.

Good news is no one got hurt ( or melted since they are all plastic charters!)  Anyways, I'll get back to the regular scheduled programming today!

Day 36...Laundry helper

Bodie LOVES to help me do the laundry.  He takes it out of the washer and then puts it in the dryer.  He LOVES to push the buttons too.  In fact I have to lock the buttons, or chance having the load stopped mid-cycle...and I speak from experience!  Today though he found a new love.

The dryer.  Doesn't it look like a cozy place to hang out?  Good thing those controls are locked and McCall can't "take him for a spin".  Get it, spin...ha ha.

Day 35...Chef Boyardee

Chef Boyardee...

Meet Rhys Vian.

Your newest fan.

He hates baby food.  Won't eat it.  But mac'n'cheese, bananas, oatmeal, beef ravioli...he'll eat that.

We were worried he didn't love food like the rest of the Vian family.

We aren't worried anymore!

Day 34...Bedtime

After suffering a horrible migraine all day, even coming home from work early, I thought I would be in the clear and the precious children would be asleep.  WRONG!  I came in the door and Rob said, "You might want to go check on your children."  My children?  If they are being bad, which I suspected they were (call me a pessimist), wouldn't it be because they were his children?  Well, we can debate that later.

So upstairs I march.  I step over the gate (in their doorway to keep them in their room.  No it doesn't work!) and what do I find...

I swear this room was clean when I left for work.  Toys everywhere, clothes tried on and strewn about.  Drawers open and their contents spilled out everywhere.  But all I could do was laugh because...

Don't you sleep in winter hats?  My kids do!

On a side note.  Does anyone know where you can buy replacement meat drawers for refrigerator's?  Bodie is in the market for one.

Day 33...Cleaning Day

It's Sunday, cleaning day.  Growing up my Dad always went crazy on Sunday's trying to get us to clean-up.  Now that is what I've become.

The kids had to take a break from all the cleaning that that had done.  (I'm joking, they didn't do any!)  Bodie joined Rhys.  Geez those boys are cute.

Then McCall had to get in on the fun!

Well, I better get back to cleaning!
