Bath Time at Work

Andrew comes to work with me on Fridays if I'm not too busy. On this particular day he had a major blow out and required a bath, so we filled up the sink in the kitchen. A new experience for him and I think his face shows it.




Is this not the sweetest face!

My Fohawk

So I looked through the archives and even found a picture of my hair. It is confirmed...the hair comes from the Medrano side.

The Medrano Hair

My sisters little girl Hailee had a great fohawk.

Bradens fohawk. If you look closely he even came with blond tips on the end of his hair.

 

 

This awsome fohawk hair style seems to run on the Medrano side. No really I don't do anything to get his hair to stand up like this, I get asked all the time. Andrew is the latest to inherit the hair. The one thing that seems to come later as a result of the fohawk is a great head of hair.

LIGHTS!!!

 
 
 
 
Rich kept his promise that he would put lights up on the house this year. Yeah!! It is the first time in 9 years that we have had lights. I must add that he says he put lights up one year on a different house, but I recall differently. Either way I am happy to have lights up and so are the boys. Rich and Connor even put up a tree on the front porch and decorated it. Connor decorated the tree in the house all by himself and kindly pulled all the decorations out of the boxes and had them strewn out all over the floor downstair. That called for immediate decorating just to get rid of the mess. He has had lots of questions about Santa and hand wrote his Christmas list this year. We have been trying to help them understand the real reason for Christmas and that it is not just about the gifts....we'll keep trying. They did help pick out some toys to give other kids in need for Toys for Tots and The Salvation Army.

First Snow Day

 

 

 

 

Connor and Andrew had their first snow day with lots of snow. Connor got to stay home from school and we all played outside. Andrew joined in too, but as you can tell he didn't last long before it got too boring.

It seems like growing up we had snow like this all the time and now it is a big treat to get dumped on like this. I love having four seasons for reasons like this.

Eyes Wide Open & First Solids

This posting is for my aunt who wants to see a picture of Andrew with his eyes open. I must also explain a little about the last picure. Braden decided he would feed Andrew a strawberry Tootsie Roll. I did not know this until Andrew woke up from his nap and was covered in melted pink stuff. Good thing he was sleeping and it just melted on his close, blanket, hands, and hair. Braden now knows he can not feed Andrew!!!

Pumpkin Pickin'

Connor had his first field trip to the pumpkin patch. The whole family went to join in on the fun. He had fun on the hay ride, playing in the corn kernals, and gettin lost in the maze. I sure am glad his school hasn't cut all field trips. Some things are a must for memories.
