Bedtime Changes

Marsh's bedtime routine has changed once again.  He now goes to sleep in our bed, then gets moved to his big-boy-bed when mom and dad turn in.  He now likes to be completely under the covers with the big body pillow smushing his little toddler body into our pillow-top mattress.  You can see his little hand sticking out from under the pillow in the first picture.  Isn't it so cute???

Some Favorites (Mason)

Some Favorites (Marshal)

Jumbled

It's almost been a month since my last post! I have so much thankfulness in my heart, and so many thoughts on my mind! I'm not sure where to begin, so this post is officially JUMBLED.

- Brown play dough is gross.  However Marshal is newly infatuated with it, and loves making quarter-sized brown pancakes.  Reason unknown.  Mason loves to eat the brown crumbs off the floor (dually gross, I know - yet somehow inevitable...)

- We had puke, diarrhea, and croup all in one night.  That has to be a record.  Somehow it makes it a little better that Jalon (sweet Daddy) went to comfort Marshal in the middle of it all and stuck his knee right in a puddle of toddler vomit.

- I am so good at grocery shopping.  I went in with my ad-matching list and my budget of $110 dollars cash.  I spent 109.89.  Pulling NO items of the check-out belt.  Without a calculator. That's skill.

- Did you know that grape vines are pruned in Winter? Did you also know that it isn't DEAD branches that are pruned, but any branch not bearing fruit OR any branch not growing in the desired direction of the Farmer... Did you ADDITIONALLY know that it is LAST YEAR'S pruning that determines the growth of THIS YEAR'S harvest? Hmmmm.... chew on that as you read John 15.  God has been rocking my world with these concepts.

- Our ten year reunion is this weekend! I'm so old! I love it!

- Mason is getting very close to walking! He is a snuggle-bug! His hair is so pretty I sometimes want to put bows in it.  But I can't.  Not even blue ones.  Because he's a boy and that's not allowed.

- This last week we decided we don't want TV for a while.  I'm loving it gone.

- I'm reading the Duggar's book (thanks Angie) and it's rocking my world too! 

- Marshal calls an airplane a "porcuplane" -  somehow I'm guessing the transportation and zoo books morphed.

Happy weekend to all you in Bloggerworld.
God is good, I've seen it in my own life.
He can be trusted.
Goodnight.
