The long awaited update!

i know its been about a month since i did my last
update, as everyone as reminded me frequently..
but we didn't have the internet yet... and were trying
to redo our house with maintaining some level of
sanity. so sorry about the wait, but things are finally
getting back to normal! This is me and the bug
picking out which red is the best! i have to say to anyone
going to paint GET SAMPLES FIRST! only one of the reds
that we had narrowed it down to worked. one of them
actually looked hot pink... that could have been tragic.
And no the gray/blue color isn't what we painted, its the
primer. Thanks to brew tyson cody and my dad they got
the whole upstairs primed in a day! THANK YOU!! and
of course their wives because the kids are really a handful!

For Christmas lexi got some fingerpaints, to put her hand
and footprints on a cute poem from her and her dad. and we
decided to try and use them one day.. the only problem is the
paper is the only place that she didn't want to paint.
Everything else seemed like fair game to her... and as everyone
knows she's pretty "out there" as ashley says, she knows what
she wants and well is determined to get it.

This was the first day of the bloody tooth, our little
explorer tends to fall on her face a lot and started bleeding
out of her gums where she has a tooth coming in.. since then
every time she falls it starts bleeding again its real sad for her.
This was after some of the blood got wiped up, but you get the idea.
her first battle wound...
This is lexi's version of sharing, she likes to offer it,
but if you take it out of her hands there is heck to pay...
only she can feed you. and when she is eating she only takes
a bite if you take a bite of what she's offering. and with
every drink she takes you have to take one as well.

she's starting to enjoy watching nemo... its bad to say
but it really can be a nice break!
The first morning in the new house...
yeah the camera was a little cold! notice that
cody is wearing boots with his shorts...
You shoulda seen the other guy...
