It’s hard being the fourth child, I totally feel her pain. But boy, is that a cute face or what?!
Speaking of cute faces, Guenna gave daddy a run for his money today. In a nutshell - She wanted more of something a breakfast, so she threw her banana on the floor. Well Chris wasn’t going […]

Last night we, Aidan and I, spent the evening in the Urgent Care. Aidan was running to help mom set the table and slipped and fell and hit his cheek on the piano bench leg and split his cheek open. From the pictures it’s hard to tell because some of his owie was sealed up […]

Boys to each other - “You’re Mr. Funny Pants!” Ha Ha Ha ha ha ha!!!Over and over and over again.
Then they told us, the boys at church say that. I guess that is better than somethings they could pick up from other boys :)
Have you ever wondered how boys or girls for that matter, […]

Aidan - “Daddy, can we put on those costumes?” Mind you, they had just removed ALL of the costumes and girls dresses from their hangers in their closet and the discipline had been, applied.
Daddy - “No, you’re not going to be able to put on those costumes.”
Aidan - “Um, daddy, can you go ask mommy, […]

“I really love Oliver. I love him when he’s not nice, and when he’s happy to me and when he’s sad to me. And I’m really happy to get to spend time with him. ” - Aidan, this morning at breakfast. We came home for a couple days and are heading back to tomorrow […]

Our first snow of the year (or I should say of the winter season) happened yesterday/today! The kids get so excited to see the beautiful white stuff falling from the sky. It’s funny too because we didn’t get to play in it, not enough and definitely too wet, […]

Making Daddy’s “Birthday” from Christian Burns on Vimeo.

“…please multiply these pancakes like you multiplied the bread and the fish…”

“…Wow! Look at this, it’s a miracle! God made my pancakes bigger!”

Mommy - “Aidan, before you eat your little pancakes, let’s take some pictures.”
Aidan - “No thanks, I don’t want to mom.”
Mommy - “Please, Aidan. Okay, you pretend like you are praying that […]

 
The other day I was at Wal-Mart buying a couple of the essential household items, when I heard this announcement over the intercom, “Attention Wal-Mart shoppers, all Halloween costumes at the front of the store are now, just $2.00, I repeat, all costumes at the…”
$2.00, hey I have some extra cash from cleaning the other […]

The kids and I got outside today again to work on the coop, granted I didn’t get much done. But we went out nevertheless and it was just nice to be out in the fresh air. I realizing though that the kids are going to need some gloves soon, it’s getting really cold out lately!

Aidan pretty much knows it all. It’s hard when you are 4 1/2 years old and people think you are just a kid and don’t know much. Not so with Aidan. He used to ask me often, “Mommy, am I an adult now?” My thought was, “if you have to ask, the answer is no.”  […]

We’re really flying!
