The lip and another tooth!

Owen is becoming quit the little man :) He has got some faces that are just so funny! The one he is most famous for is THE LIP!! We can't help but laugh every time he does it. If you say the word handsome to him...the lip comes out. If he is sad...the lip comes out. If he's getting ready to smile...yep you guessed it, the lip comes out. I can't wait to see how his lip plays out in his life. He is 11 months tomorrow and it seems like time is flying by! The last picture of him on here is a funny story. We had made some cupcakes and I left them on the table~mistake #1. I was checking my email and he came up to me so I picked him up~mistake #2. I was obviously not paying attention to him~mistake #3~because the next thing I felt was frosting all over my arm. He had gotten a cupcake and was enjoying it to the fullest! I took it away from him so I could clean it up and of course the lip came out. Nellie took a picture for us. I just think he was practicing for his birthday! :)



Nellie lost her 2nd tooth a little while back. Both teeth so far have not been technically ready to come out. However, she won't eat or do hardly anything because they hurt so bad, so we (meaning my sister) pull them out. She is just now getting the permanent tooth in from the first one she lost a few months ago. Anyway, she is feeling much better with the loose teeth out and is eating now!

SSSOOO Funny!! At least to me :)

I was just looking at how old my kids are on the little ticker thing to the left and noticed that Owen in his picture looks just like his ticker guy! Well, that's all for now...I just thought it was funny. I think I'm a little tired ;)

Projects

So this is my big project. I have learned that I really love to paint. It takes my mind off of everything and it is relaxing. Nellie and I found these houses at Michaels and had to get them. We did her's first and then started on mine. Patrick built it for me and then I painted it. It took at total of 3 days. One of the days we spent 6 hours just putting it together. It was crazy hard!! He had to keep taking apart pieces so that I could paint them and then putting it back together again. We love our house and had fun working on it together. I might paint the inside some day, but for now it is natural. Enjoy :)



Nellie has been watching me and helping me paint so she wanted to do one of her own. Patrick put it together for her and she painted it all by herself. She was very proud of her work and won't let anyone touch it. I think she did a great job! :)

The girls have piggy banks so I painted this block for Owen. Now when he gets older he'll have a block bank.
I found these at $ Tree and had to get them. Each one is one of my kids. Nellie is the flower, Samantha is the turtle and Owen is the boat.
