Anyone need to hire a painter?

I don't this really needs much explanation.  Needless to say though, Bryce went directly in the tub when he was done.

Notice the paint in his mouth....thank goodness for Crayola Non-Toxic paints

Lunchtime visitor

This is a little visitor that we saw on our deck one day while we were eating lunch.  He just sat and ate his apple (which I'm not sure where he got that).  He didn't even freak out when I cracked the door open to take a picture.



Trying to ride a bike

So we have a bike that belonged to my nephews and we've been trying to convince Isabella to ride it.  She hasn't been all too thrilled to try it.  (Maybe because its not pink.)  But we've tried.  One of these days, she'll get it.

Bryce, however, thought it was pretty cool.

Spring is here

Hooray, Spring is finally here.  And now we get to look at things like this:

Unfortunately we also get to look at this:

(and if you saw my Facebook status about weeds yesterday, 4/11, this is why)

Isabella is funny

Isabella just says the funniest things sometimes.  This morning we were leaving to go pick Pam up to head over to the mall. (They were giving away free coupon books if you were wearing green and stopped by the information desk, those things are usually $5 and have awesome coupons.)  On the way to pick Pam up, Isabella said to me, I think Pam will be wearing a shirt.  I said, Well I certainly hope so.  A few minutes later, Isabella said I think Pam will be wearing a green shirt and pants.  Well, thanks for clarifying and expanding on Aunt Pam's wardrobe.

She is also getting very picky about clothes.  She got a new dress for Christmas that was pink with a little black shrug.  She loves that dress.  I have to fight with her to get her to wear a different dress to church.  So we told her that we needed to buy her a new dress and it couldn't be pink.  It is close to Easter anyways, so there are lots of pretty spring dresses around.  We looked at Walmart and Target and she didn't see anything that she really liked that was in her size.  So at the mall today, we went in to Burlington to look at their dresses.  I think that store exploded with dresses.  She kept choosing pink dresses and I kept telling her no.  She got stuck on this one because the tag said Cinderella.  I eventually convinced her that we were getting that one.  She finally found a really pretty yellow dress in her size that she liked.  SOLD!  Then I had to find a little shrug to go with it.  Finally found that and a new church outfit for Bryce and we're set for church for the spring.  I wonder if we'll be able to convince her to wear a different dress some Sundays or not.  I'll post pics of their new outfits once they wear them.
