I had to cheat a little bit on my picture of the day. This is the first time I have done this, and I actually feel sort of "guilty". I actually had a pretty eventful day, and even took my camera with me to a few places, but I never got a picture taken. So I decided to use one I had taken of Keric a couple days ago, but never posted. Does that still count?!?!

Keric is getting better about holding his own ba-ba. When I looked over to check on him, he not only had his ba-ba, but his remote control too. Guess the only other thing he needed was to be watching "Charlie and Lola"!

Very rarely do I make something for dinner that Reagan likes. I used to think I was a picky eater, until Reagan came along!

Dinner time usually consists of Reagan telling me how much she hates whatever I have made, followed by questions of "how many bites do I need to take before I can be done", and finally, Reagan sitting at the table by herself trying to choke down enough ice cold bites of dinner to be considered "done" by either me or her Dad.

Tonight however was different. When Reagan asked me what we were having for dinner I told her I was making spaghetti. I was surprised when her response was "Oh good! YUM!" We sat down to eat, and not only did Reagan eat everything on her plate without even ONCE asking how many bites she had to take, she finished her dinner before Cameron!

I was shocked! Guess I'll have to make Spaghetti more often!

Tonight I went to our wards Enrichment Night Activity. This meant Dad and Bubby got to have a boys night.

Before I left Chris told me that he and Bubby were gonna watch bad movies, eat pizza and drink lots of root beer while Mommy was gone. I was really worried about leaving them. :)

When I got home however, they were eating leftover chicken, watching "Hell's Kitchen" and playing on the computer.

Guess they had a tame boys night out this time! ha ha

Tonight Cameron received his Bobcat award at Pack Meeting. It was fun to go watch him. He had all four of his parents there, and got to give both Shannon and I little mother's pins, which was a really nice surprise for me. After Pack Meeting we had brownies and ice cream to celebrate.

Congratulations Cameron!

By complete and total accident, Chris stumbled upon a cartoon, that for whatever reason Bubby just LOVED.

He not much of a T.V. kid. Sometimes he will "watch" T.V. on my lap, or in his bouncy, but he never has gotten into it like he did this cartoon. He loved it so much, that I recorded it on the DVR so he could watch it again. It was entertaining enough I could actually leave the room for more then 30 seconds! I don't think he even noticed I was gone!

It's a little cartoon called "Charlie and Lola". I have never watched it before, but it is kind of cute. It's about a little brother and sister and they have English accents. Chris says it's the English version of Cameron and Reagan.

Whatever it is...it is a new favorite for Keric. I sat him on the couch, with his remote control and he was entertained for quite awhile. I even got the bathroom cleaned while he watched. That has never happened before!

It was so funny to hear him in here laughing away.

What a kid! :) He really does have his very own little personality and attitude.

Oh, my lazy little boy! Just like rolling over, and sitting up, Keric has no desire to walk!

He SHOULD be pulling himself up to things, and trying to walk, but he's not. Like all the other things he should be doing now...I try not to stress out about it, and the fact that he is NOT doing them.

Chris was trying to get him to "walk" by holding him up and walking around with him. Bubby had different ideas...his way of walking...pulling his legs up in the air, and letting Daddy carry him around. This picture actually looks like he is putting his legs down on the ground...but rest assured...it's only a photo "illusion"!

What am I gonna do with this lazy boy! I hope one day he decides to do SOMETHING!

Slowly but surely, the bathroom in the basement is taking shape. Chris worked all yesterday afternoon, and into the early morning hours. He said he slipped into bed at 4:00 a.m.! I knew he had come in...but I was too tired to notice what time! Poor guy!

This afternoon after church Bubby and I went down to inspect what Daddy had accomplished while we were selfishly sleeping.

We now have a tub complete with plumbing...or at least all the stuff that needs to be underneath to eventually get water IN the tub.

It's coming along!!
