Remake

We decided to remake the magazine cover below. Our mistake was we used a real puppy. He did okay but he really did not want to be there.The cover
Our remake of the original. That is Sebastion, Nana and Papa's new puppy. He is part New Foundland part Black Lab. He is 12 weeks old and very cute!

Tiny Triumphs 15

I can't seem to wait for spring! What I can't seem to understand is that February is the shortest month of the year. But, for some reason the month seems to last forever. I can't wait for the air to warm up and the sun to shine. I guess that I have to wait some more. And, for me waiting is REALLY tough.

Now on with Tiny Triumphs

1. The litter is still being scooped and Lily is being fed, by the boys!

2. Jared is home safe and sound

3. We are getting ready to drive to St. Louis on Friday to see Nana and Papa

4. Kellen seems to be having a good time in school. He is learning about minerals and he seems to love learning about them

Tiny Triumphs 14!

This week has been a busy one! WOW! That is about all I can say about the last week!

Here we go!

1. Jared is in Texas. While we miss him we are also so proud of him! His company is being recognized as one of the top ten dealers in the U.S.!

2. Conferences are done and the boys are doing great! Things are improving for both boys! Ethan is reading and writing a lot better! Kellen is getting less bossy! He is also doing a lot of GATE stuff this year. GATE is the Gifted And Talented Education program in the school. He is really learning a lot from that!

3. The litter is still being scooped and the cat is being fed every single day!

Next week I may post Tiny Triumphs early because I will be busy packing! We are going to spend a long weekend in Saint Louis with Nana and Papa! All of us can't wait!

Ethan Says The Darndest Things

Ethan has been on a roll lately! He has been so funny lately. I just have to share.

Jared and Ethan were joking about something and Jared asked me who was right. Ethan then pipes up and says "Mom is not in this it is you and me."

While watching the opening ceremonies and Ethan heard that it was in Vancouver Canada. He then asked "Don't people in Canada say "EH" when they talk?"

He has been something else lately. Some of the things that he has said recently just make me laugh. When he catches me laughing I have to make something up so he doesn't know that I am laughing AT him.

Singing In The Shower!

Ethan was singing in the shower. It is very cute! I wanted to share the Valentine's Day song that he was singing! I did not think that the Christmas one that he was singing was appropriate at this time of the year.

One Red Valentine

Two Red Valentine

Three Red Valentine

Four Red Valentine

Cut And Cut

And Paste And Paste

Then Make Twenty More

Lily And Her Cube!

Lily has a cube that she loves to play in and on. She can even get herself rolling through the house. There is now a new game to play with it. Someone holds the cube up and Lily jumps up to get in it. It is so funny to watch!Ethan with Lily in the cube

Is that a kitty I see?


Here is a video of Lily, Ethan, and the cube

Valentine, You Have A Piece Of My Heart!

I made some cute pins for the kids to give to their teachers for Valentine's Day. I used puzzle pieces and glued them in a heart shape. Then, I painted them with glue and poured glitter all over them. Finally, I attached a pin that I bought at the craft store on the back. I think that they turned out very cute!

The finished pin! The pictures below are of the other pins that I made


This is the back of one of the pins. You can tell that it is a puzzle! I thought that these turned out well! It was a bit hard to get the pieces in the shape of heart. But I think that I got it!
