Happy Birthday Drew!

Drew visited with us for his birthday. He is 16 years old already! We had supper with Grandma and Grandpa Daney. I made baked chicken, cheesy potatoes, sauteed spinach, salad, and Italian loaf bread. For dessert we had cherry cheesecake made by Grandma. It was good! Drew went shopping for his presents and he got some nice dress clothes.

Cookie buzz

Joah being typical and not smiling because I want him to

Daniel, Joah, Caleb and I went to the mall the other day just to get out of the house and do something. I am getting stir crazy couped up inside and it was a place were the kids could run around and still stay warm inside.

The boys got cookies and milk for their snack. Daniel was a cookie monster! Then they rode on a few of the rides until the quarters ran out. After that we went to the play land and hung out there for a while. By the time it was nap time we had enough fun and headed home.

Happy Ten Months Old, Daniel!

Daniel is ten months old today. It doesn't seem like it has been this long already. He has two teeth on the bottom and is into EVERYTHING! He likes to empty the cupboards of anything he can get his hands on. I have to keep the bathroom door shut because toilet paper is his favorite toy right now.

He pulls himself up on the furniture and takes a few steps along it now. He really seems to like just about anything we give him to eat. I particularly likes Cheerios and crackers. If only he would sleep through the night so mom could finally get a break. Wishful thinking!
