One less finger…
…nail, that is. Soon. I hope. Last month or so, Violet shut Hayden’s hand in a door at daycare. It went from black, to purple to multi-colored, and finally to brown. We knew it was due to fall off, but were hoping it wouldn’t. It is currently hanging on by part of a cuticle. Since…
Eeeeww…
On Tuesday, we went to Bob Evens (down on the farm!) for dinner since Mike was training at the Fetzer Center for work. Dinner went really well partly due to the fact that we got both kids chocolate milk with really long bendy straws. The kids both wanted breakfast for dinner, so we got them the…
It’s safe, we promise
In an effort to get some energy out before bed, we had the kids race down the stairs. This went on for a while before we took a video, and it continued after for a little bit. Violet even had to change into some better “fast pants” so she could go faster and protect her…

Tornados
Last night we had a tornado warning for Kalamazoo county. Luckily, the warning was for a storm that had the potential to create a tornado that was north of Portage (by where we used to live in Cooper). Since Libby and I were checking to see if we needed to eat dinner down stairs, Violet…
Hot Water Heater
Grandpa Chuck helped to replace the hot water heater a couple weeks back. It's working great, so I brought up the box to recycle it. Before I did, I let the kids play in it. It has been a boat, a ramp for race cars, a house, a counter for a store, and many other…
Best Friends
Yesterday was yet another early daycare day for the kids. I picked them up right after lunch and came back home for nap. I made a decision that we were not going to watch any TV, so I tried my best to keep them occupied with quality activities. I did a great job! We played…
