New Discoveries.....

So recently, we added another new member to our family....or at least during the weekdays. My friend Christine and her husband have recently become a two job family - and so I've taken on their 3 year old son, Wesley. Wow - and people looked at me with sympathy when I cart three boys around - having the four of them have really set people's sympathy for me.
Wesley is a good boy - but a boy none-the-less. My favorite thing, when he wants to know what I'm doing:
Wesley: What hers doing?
Me: I'm folding clothes.

Wesley: Why you do that?


At this point he usually smiles and just walks away. I'm pretty sure he doesn't want an answer...he just wants to make conversation.

Nathanael has a new blanket for his bed. I found the same fuzzy material that his favorite blankie is made from and made him an comforter from it. Now, his blankies are only a small square size...he was in blankie heaven yesterday when I finished sewing the blanket and made his bed. His whole bed is now his blankie!!!! What a revelation for him!!


We have been converged upon recently by motorcycles. Yes, I said motorcycles...the loud kind mostly...Dan recently checked with his accountant (hmmmm, wonder who that could be) and she gave him permission to buy another motorcycle to work on as a project bike. He also has two others that he's working on for friends. Thus, backyard now looks like this:
Dan's motorcycle is parked on the left behind the motorcycle that you can see in the picture. So now, we have a biker barn... Nathan loves it. Everytime we get in the car to go somewhere, he points at them and says "mo-kycle."

Dan and I are hopefully going to try and get away by ourselves - without our crew - in September. We need the time just the two of us...first I have to pry him from his motorcycles...
