Back to Work

Here is Donald in his home office. He spins around in this thing like he's an important executive officer of a huge corporation. It's wonderful to see how motivated he is to play with each toy when he needs to.

Rebecca got her hair cut last weekend and it's been a fun change.
I also wanted to include the recipe for one of our favorite fun family snacks. We usually make it on Sunday evenings so I thought I'd share.

Peanut Butter Popcorn
1/2 c. white sugar
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. corn syrup
1/4 c. butter
Mix the above ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Then add 1 c. peanut butter and 1 tsp vanilla.
Pour the mixture over popcorn. We usually pop a cup of popcorn.

Have a fun first day of fall!

Adrian's First Lost Tooth

Adrian lost his first tooth yesterday. Actually, he didn't lose it so much as he had it yanked out by Sarah. Apparantly, one of her favorite things to do is pull teeth from kids. After working on if off and on for the last few weeks, it finally came out last night.


Adrian got a visit from the tooth fairy last night and even got to keep his tooth to go along with the money. He liked that so much that he decided he wanted another tooth pulled tonight, but we didn't pull any.
Here's Sarah practicing her dentistry skills on Adrian.


After much pulling the tooth finally came out.


Adrian was excited to show off the tooth, but not as excited as Donald. Maybe Donald just wanted the tooth for himself.

I Spy..


with my little eye, something cute and cuddly! (This is Rebecca's idea of babysitting Donald.)
