King Abram and Cowgirl Katie

Since we've been too lazy, i.e. too wore out to write anything on a consistent basis, double post madness!

Abram and the Oreos

After dinner one night we broke out the Double Stuff Oreos. Now I like to take two of them, take off one cookie from each and make one Quadruple Stuff Oreo. Mandi says it's near sacrilege to leave extra cookies. I say they make great snacks for Abram. Here's a video showing his love of dipping cookies in milk.

First Day of School

Today was Mommy and Daddy's first day of a new school year. Abram and Katie had a great day, sleeping in, eating, and playing with Grammy. We are all so lucky that she is coming to our house to keep the kids. Mommy and Daddy survived their first day and have begun the countdown until summer come around again!! We wanted to take a picture but the kids were asleep when Mommy and Daddy had to leave, so maybe we will have a second day of school picture.

Mommy's Little Helper

Mommy decided she needed some new shelves in her craft room. So Katie decided she would help build them. She was a great helper until she decided that the shelves looked tasty!

Lake Trip Part 2

As promised more pictures from the lake. Enjoy!

Park Play

After the big excitement of the kickball game, we all walked over to the playground for a few minutes of play for the little kids (the big kid was worn out from his play!) Mommy and Abram played on the slides while Daddy and Katie played in the stroller.

What Daddy's been doing....

Every Monday and Wednesday evening for the last month or so have been kickball nights. The local park has run an adult kickball league for the last two years. Abram and Katie enjoy being able to hang out in the park for a couple of hours while Daddy tries to be a kid again. I, and the entire team, also get to enjoy an automatic cheering section.



Last year, we took second. This year, well just take a look:
