kid-accomplishments

Mr. Weston is well on his way to being a "big boy"! Yesterday, after having a bath...I got his clothes out for him and asked him to dress himself. He came into my room and announced triumphantly, "I can dress myself!"....looking like this:



Kaitlyn and I have talked about how much help I will need from her once Connor is born. The other night, I was SO tired, wipped out, and sore. She asked what was for dinner and I told her, "I don't know, what are you making?" (totally wasn't serious). She then proceeded to make us "breakfast for dinner". This is what we had...
... plus cinnomon toast. She set the table, poured the milk and everything! We all loved it!...ecspecially me!

Little Miss Addie-girl brought be this today:
Dandelions and foxtails.
She told me that she put in the fox tails (I don't know what the real name is for those....but we call them "foxtails"...the kids love it when the stems get long. Then they tie them or tuck them into their pants and pretend to be foxes!) so that it would look like flowers for a wedding. I think it's a beautiful bouqet. She must get her talent from her Grandma Barrett!

P.S. April is "National Donate Life" month! If you aren't an organ donor already...go HERE to sign up! What are ya going to use those things for after you die anyways!?

HILARIOUS! What a good laugh. And I love how proud he was of himself. Classic. This looks like a great tell the girlfriend story when he gets older.

That was super sweet of Kaitlyn to make dinner. We have the same thing here sometimes- and we're are "grown ups".
