All Smiles

Can't resist that smile but don't let it fool you, he can throw a fit bigger than his big brother can. I'm just happy they are not a norm but a rarity.

Asa Dresses Himself

The other day Asa tried to dress himself. It was so cute to watch him put his feet into the arm holes. I tried to let him know he was not doing it quite right but when he is determined to do it a certain way himself there is no deterring him.

New pics up soon

I will hopefully get some new pictures up tonight or tomorrow. I will have some auto posts set up for a bit while I have to focus on finishing things for my brother's wedding. I have to get over and finish the flowers and work out all of the details for the pictures.

In the mean time, I came across this awesome give away if you're into scrapbooking you might want to check it out.
Just go -->HERE.<--

Let's Build a Fort

Brotherly Love - part 2

Asa is such a loving brother, when the boys are sitting in their carseats, he will reach over and grab Eli's hand. Oh how this simple act can just make a mother's heart melt. This was taken just before we were leaving to head home. We had stopped to get gas and coffee for the ride home, if you look you can see the gas pumps through the car window.

The Tridge - Midland Trip

We got out of the car and all strapped in and Eli got so excited. He was squealing with sheer delight and loved every minute of our brief walk in the freezing cold but oh was it so nice to just be outside.


Asa loved looking at the water.


The trail is covered with ice and snow, not that we were really planning to walk much further due to the wind. This is just the other side of the tridge.


Getting ready to head back over the tridge to the car.


Chris had fun running ahead of me and Trisha. (I didn't get a single picture of her that weekend.) I love that you can see the size of the tridge and its three extensions.


Another view of the tridge. It is a little blown out because I was facing the sun but it is still beautiful and if you click on the image to enlarge it you can see more details. The tridge spans where the Tittabawasee and Chippewa Rivers merge. I really do love this area of the state.

We're Back

The above images are from our trip to Midland to have our taxes done. It has been a while since we went but I have been without internet for the past little bit and on top of that have been dealing with the sickies. Both boys had a stomach bug back a few weeks ago, we were finally starting to see the end of that and doing so much better when we became sick again. This time Asa has a throat infection and Eli has an ear infection. While they are fussy and a bit whiny at times, I am very thankful to not be dealing with the throw up of a few weeks ago. This post and the next two posts will be from this trip to Midland.
