Landon's Favorite Things

Landon has a few obsessions...these are his favorite things that he will be seen with any given time in any given day.
1. A sippie cup of milk

2. These shoes. He LOVES them. He SLEEPS in them...no lie. He will not take them off except to shower. And yes...they STINK!!!

4. Leo the Lion and his blanket. Leo goes with us wherever we go. He is well loved and you can tell by looking at his ratty little self. He loves his blanket too...I have to sneak it to wash it because if he sees me take it he will cry by the laundry room door waiting for it.


5. Umm...a power cord. Yeah I have no idea either. It goes to a power wheel that doesn't work anymore so don't worry he can't plug it into a wall and electrocute himself. And another disclaimer-I do not let him sleep with it at any time. He just really likes carrying it around.

6. A drill. He is a man's man, my little boy. Well minus the attachment to a stuffed lion and his blankie..and a sippie cup;)
So, there you have it...Landon's favorite things. These are not passing fancies...he is pretty loyal to these things. He is so funny. What a fun little boy...we love you Landon!


I do still take pictures of my kids!

We had scouts here one night and they played Rock Band.

Tyler is Dylan's shadow so he must do what his big bro does!

Trying to impress.


Somebody needs a haircut...

Such a sweetie!

Cierra LOVES taking care of her little brothers!

I haven't been posting pictures very often, so here is a recap again...

Seriously...

you need to read this blog! I know I just posted about it, but I really think everyone needs to read her blog and like vote for her for something;) She needs to be on Oprah. She needs free money, she needs her house paid off, her care paid for. If octo-mom can have it all then I am pretty sure Stephanie Nielson deserves some of the pie.
Ok, I am being kinda loony about it, but like I said before, reading her posts inspire me.
Take today for instance...I am moping around because I hate how my carpet looks and we will NEVER have the money to put in new flooring. Then I get on to read if she has posted anything today and I feel the size of a speck of dirt after I read what is on HER mind. Again, tears fill my eyes as I realize how truly blessed I am.
Sorry to be repetitive..........but go read it!! Seriously!

Happy Day!

Today Landon got his cast off. As you can see from the picture it wasn't the most pleasant experience for him. Poor little guy was TERRIFIED of the saw. It was so sad that I took the time to take a picture. Good thing Daddy was there to comfort him....and Leo the Lion. After the tech took it off, he asked us if we wanted to keep it. Um...no thanks..really?
In the bed next to us was a guy who had blown off half of his foot while hunting. Poor guy. He was kind enough to keep it covered until we left as to not scare the boys....thanks man.
So, other than a very scaly leg and callused foot, Landon is done with broken bones...for now.
