Bus Stop Battles

Seriously, waiting at the bus stop in the morning with these three (and Addie) is a highlight of my day.

Dino Bump

Yep, even our board games are dino themed.

Dad realizing he was dino bumped!

Addie

Addie is the new little girl that I am watching. 

She. is. adorable.

We adore her.  She is easy going.  Mellow.  Silly.  Girly.  A little whiney (but what 14 month old isn't?)  She rolls with whatever needs to happen.  She's afraid of playgrounds (?!) but loves to give snuggles.  She loves books.   Hates hot dogs (I don't blame her).  And is getting pretty good about signing things.

I feel really lucky to be able to watch this little person.  When one door closed another definitely was opened.

End of Innocence

Ok not really.  But what a dramatic title!

Gone are the days where every piece of clothing had to have a dinosaur on them.  Don't get me wrong, they are still appreciated (and Grant is over the moon that every single hand me down is a dino) but now we look for skulls and cross bones, monsters, robots, ninjas, etc.  And he wants a mohawk.  (I did not say no but I did say no mohawks until he is able to fix his hair by himself.) And a tatoo (we have a firm no tattoos until you are 20 and a young adult rule.)

This is our latest fall look:

Monster hat, skeleton sweatshirt ( you don't have to wear it zipped all the way up and he usually has it down), skeleton gloves, addidas warm up pants, robot t-shirt, and light up Sketchers (but black and red because they look like ninja shoes.)

And no, this is not our Halloween costume!
