Andrew and my parents came to watch Landon's basketball game last Friday night.
We didn't know how Andrew would do in such a setting, but thanks to Netflix and my mom's new iPad he did just fine watching Dumbo.
This is Landon's version of mopping on his hands and knees.
Another dinosaur still life by Whitney.
We've been trying harder to have family meals together (we have a tendency to forage and scatter) so we've been making a menu plan and committing one of us to being in charge of the meal that night. It is working out splendidly and has meant much better dinners and lots more time together.
I've been wanting a little speaker set up for the kitchen and I found this one at Walmart today. It was originally priced at $19 but was marked down to $11 but then rang up as $5.50 woohoo and it works great!
I got a thank you note from the girl I gave things to as her Secret Pal at work. I found the note on my desk and immediately said, "Who's Gail?!" I thought someone had left it there by mistake, but it turns out the note was for me. The poor girl overheard me and was so embarrassed, she said "I know you're name's not Gail." (Apparently not.) Huh, Gail that was a first time for me.

I like your kitchen floors and white cabinets...I don't think I've ever "seen" them before. I like your idea of trading off who's in charge of dinner. How come around here that always means me? The Gail note is sadly hilarious! If that makes any sense...
My name is Gail and I have been called Jill (and Dale)many times.
Love your iHome for the kitchen. I found a speaker at Wal-mart before Christmas that is not nearly as nice for $15.00 So, you really got an extra great deal.
It sounds great to have such helpful kids (cleaning and at dinner). Score on the ipod speaker thing. I want one but I had no idea they could be so affordable (even at $19 that sounds reasonable to me.) Gail--ha ha!
Landon's version of mopping made me smile. Ohhhh, I feel the pain of the girl. I've done it way too many times. Hooray for the dinner brigade.
oh gail i LOVE you!!!
It is so fun and refreshing to visit your blog. I've been taking a break from Internet and Social Media and it has been wonderful and improved my life, now that I think I have broke the addiction, I'm visiting some old friends.
I hope you are wonderful!
PS. My very best friend recently gave birth to her 5 child a beautiful baby boy born with Down Syndrome. I think of Andrew all the time when she talks about her baby. Lots of work, lots of love, lots of blessings. Gratitude for small miracles and big spirits sent in little bodies.
The Gail thing...
Can Landon come to my house and clean my floors? I need someone like that.
