How can you resist this?

Food for thought

Simeon currently like anything that makes noise. Tissue paper, rocks in Tupperware, macaroni and cheese box, fruit snack wrapper. If it makes noise, he's there trying to shake it to make more noise. I was making myself dinner one night (when I had just got home from work, and Jeremy was at grad school), and so I gave Simeon the Mac box to shake. I caught him looking up the nutritious value! I know son, less than ideal!

Simeon is starting to explore more and more with food. So far he like sweet potatoes, carrots, rice cereal and crackers, bananas, pears, and apple
sauce. If it's time to eat, and we need to say prayers first, watch out, talk about unhappy kid. He's learning patience. It's my hope to begin teaching him sign language for please, thank you, more, and food. So if he gets it down expect a video. But now that he is liking food a little bit more, it's getting really fun to feed him.

Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow!

Simeon Got to experience his first snow! After about 20 minutes I took him back inside, and I think he was upset about it! A true mountain man.

Watch me move!

Our first Thanksgiving...The Men and Me

We a got the chance to entertain some of the bachelor men that have entered our lives because of FOCUS. To say the least, I was thrown off my game, because I am used to being surrounded by women. But it was a wonderful day. I cooked the full meal with the help of my husband, and then got to watch all the men show me their mad kitchen duty skills as I pulled the supervisor card. :) (Simeon didn't have to do the dishes either, as he was sacked out from the turkey.) It was a wonderful and relaxing day with football, wine, and Mexican Train (don't worry Rossco...I beat Jeremy again)!

That weekend, Jeremy took me on a date...a real one! Dinner and the Nutcracker! I felt so lucky! We left Simeon with the men, 3 men and a baby! He had a ball. I think it's the best he has been for a babysitter(s), as he barely made it to bed before we got home! Maybe I'll have them do it again. They did try to get a rise out of me as I came home to find a picture on the camera of Simeon sucking and hugging a Kahlua bottle of alcohol! I told him I did expect him to be swinging from the ceiling fan!

Don't go Chris, you make me laugh!

How did you know I like doing funny faces?

I'm on top of the world...or at least Tim that is.

Paul, I've got your nose!

You've got mine!
