Etsy

I haven't blogged about our Etsy shop because I just didn't think to connect the two networks... but Kristen inspired me. So I am here to tell you that Kristen and I have been a little crafty and are selling some of our crafts. We are Kandy Apple Krafts, (spelled as one word if you are doing a search for our shop on the Etsy site) we are very slowly building up our inventory, but we have a few items if you want to check it out!

This is a link to our shop, enjoy!

Pictures...

So I posted some pictures below without posting any stories... I haven't been very good since Christmas time at putting pictures up, and I promised Salem I would put something up tonight! I promise tomorrow I will fill in the gaps! So from top to bottom, not in chronological order, but all of these are from January and February. Archie holding his new baby Jose, he gives him hugs and kisses then drops him on the floor. Next, Archie going down the slide by himself, we did a picnic, with Tyler, Kristen and Alex, so much fun, and the kids would not keep their gloves on...
Family photo (okay, this one is from December)
Archie just hanging out in this chair. We went up to Montana to visit Kristen's mom and brother, just me and Krist and the kids, one day while Alex was playing outside with her mama and gramma, Archie and I came in to get a snack and I couldn't find him anywhere. I walked into the living room and he was just sitting in this chair... to be honest I was a little freaked out at first, I thought someone must have been in the house and helped him get on the chair... nope. Now it is as if it is his personal mission to climb on everything at least once before he can do anything else for the day.
Well, this boy loves to be naked, but after a pee stain on the floor we really insist that he keeps his diaper on, and he loves to stand on things that could be dangerous to stand on. Cue the-mostly-undressed-standing-on-fire-truck-scooter phase.

More later!

Sillyness and Christmas fun

We have been having a lot of fun lately, we usually do I suppose. But I wanted to show a few pictures of the fun that Alex and Archie inspire in us.

Just needed to wear Archie's shirt and an oven mitt :)

One of their new favorite hang outs, under the side table.

Sharing is becoming more and more a thing of the present, so they take turns playing with the toy, while the other does the grunt work or chases in expectant excitement.

Our tree! We decorated a couple of weeks ago, Archie was more interested in the treadmill, as you will see below...

Archie + spatula = good buddies

He loves this thing, and expects it to be on every time he steps up on it, when it isn't on he is likely to walk right off the edge...

It is Sunday. As many Sunday mornings go, Arch gets a bath before church. This morning, however, I played a more productive role in assisting with the bath routine: I was the photographer. In the two pictures below, one is Archie in present day, and the other is his not to distant future. In other words, I am increasing my insistence that Archie is ready for a hair cut. I acknowledge that many mothers don't want to cut their babies hair, not that I understand it, only that it seems to happen. Kate seems to think he can go for another eight to ten months. So, I give you Archie today (13 months) and Archie tomorrow (21 - 23 months).
