Sorry didn't post last week; but so far the Great Experiment is going well. The first night Christopher did take a very small tumble coming down the ladder; he missed the last two steps. But he didn't cry and said "Even though I fell, I'm going back up." So it's been a week now and things are going great!
We moved the little toddler mattress out over the weekend and they are officially moved into their new beds. Stephen even took his naps in his bed on the weekend which is also a plus. Although Mommy will miss the snuggle time on Saturday and Sunday afternoons.

I hope to be posting a series of blogs on our trip to Disney in December of 2009...Stay Tuned!

Momentous Event

Hold the presses...tonight, on the spur of the moment, we decided to move Christopher up to the top bunk and Stephen into the bottom bunk. Mom's a little nervous about Christopher going up and down the ladder; but he said he would be careful.

Wish us luck for an uneventful night!

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone!

The Boys started the season with a wrestling match at the AVFD Christmas Party. Not sure who actually won this in the end.

Stephen's favorite present was either his new Harmonica or his pal Scout. (Amy, his jaw dropped when it said "Stephen!")

Daddy's favorite present was a new fob watch for job sites and the FD...that he had picked out himself; ($10 special from Kohls)

Christopher's favorite present was his Crane Truck from Santa. He's been asking for it since October.

Mommy's favorite present was a new coffee maker...hopefully that will help with the grumpies in the morning.

Daddy and the boys were able to get a little more play time in the snow at Grandma's in VA. They even made an Ice-Man.

And finally, for those that know me very well, you will enjoy this. My boy Christopher is following in my footsteps and building all kinds of things with Lego's. He's built a house, dune buggy and helicopter...is he an engineer or architect in the making?
