Silly Colton!

This is C's favorite thing to do as the water drains after his bath...he cracks us up!!!

Complete.

OUR HERO IS HOME!!! I cannot even begin to describe the feeling. My husband, my children's daddy, our hero...he is home...safe, where he belongs. We have just been enjoying our precious time together. Colton has taken to Daddy so quickly and it could not make my heart swell any more. Kennedie has yet to let him out of her sight! I woke up this morning to James saying, "Do you hear that?" Nope, I was sleeping. "Colton is in there saying, 'Dadda? Dadda?' Can I go get him?" =) Of course! We all went to take Kennedie to school yesterday, and I went to take Colton from James, so he could walk with Kennedie. C started crying! Talk about breaking my heart! I am just so thankful that we're back to normal...although a new normal...

IT'S ALMOST TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are officially less than 48 hours away from having James home!!! I cannot even begin to describe the different emotions I've felt this week. I guess the best way to describe it is that I've had this incredible weight on my shoulders for the past 10 months. It is all about to be lifted away by my incredible husband. I've had to be the strong one, the only one. My best friend is coming home!
Every time I try to imagine what that moment will be like...the moment that my hero steps off of that plane...I start to cry. I cannot even fathom...
I started to think about the things I've learned over the past 10 months...and this one may just take the cake...
There is a thingamajig under your bathroom sink called a "trap." Yes, I witnessed first hand all of the yummy things hiding in there. K dropped one of her charms down the drain a few weeks ago, so Poppa walked me through taking apart my bathroom sink. I am not known for my strong stomach...enough said.
The arrival time keeps changing, but all I know is that my handsome hubby will be HOME on Saturday! WAHOO!!!!!!!
=)

Brainwashed by a Chipmunk

Yes, brainwashed! She is obsessed with her new Alvin and the Chipmunks DVD and quotes it all day long. This little hand gesture cracks me up!

And, we were watching America's Funniest Videos last night and something on the show caught on fire. She yelled out, "FIRE IN THE HOLE!!!"

Oh my...
