Guaranteed Overnight Delivery

Brenna decided to play in a box and make a bed. She came up to me and said "Mom, I'm sleeping in the box tonight." At least now I know that there's a box that she can fit in so when I decided to ship her off to my mom she'll be comfy. =) I think if I emptied all of her toys out of her room and just put empty boxes in there she would be happy. Ever since she could crawl she's loved to play in them. She used to get into them, throw everything out and then climb in and look very pleased with herself. Some things don't change.

What they really teach students at the hospital

Jason is really loving his job at the hospital. He comes home with all sorts of stories....especially when he gets to help in the ER. I get to hear about reattaching limbs and gruesome car accidents. I guess it's a good thing I don't have a weak stomach and I'm over the whole morning sickness. Between work and student house he spends a lot of time there, which is a really good thing he likes it there. On the days that aren't so eventful they get to have some down time. So of course, he plays with the medical equipment. He brought some of the tape home and had fun playing with Brenna. They put tape over their mouths and tried talking. The funniest part was when he tried to laugh and he had tape over his mouth. His cheeks bulged out and I thought his eyes were going to pop out of his head. It was hilarious!!! And as I've said before, the only time I can take a picture of him is when he's doing something goofy or pulling a face. Now I know that if we ever mutated into pigs Jason and Brenna would still be cute, even though Jason looks a little bit diabolical. Now can you imagine what he's going to do with a little boy, who I'm sure will be just like his dad? I don't think our life will lack a dull moment.

Painting Pumpkins

What's Halloween season without painting pumpkins? So of course we got a pumpkin for Brenna to decorate. I don't like to cut pumkins cuz after you carve them they go rotten really fast, so I decided to let her paint one. Which she had a lot of fun doing. I gave her the paints and told her to paint it however she wanted. Her finished masterpiece was a pretty colorful pumpkin. She's been having fun the past week with Halloween crafts. We've makea witch, ghost, bat, spider, a pumkin, and a paper bag pumkin.

Technical difficulties

I thought I had added the picture on that post about my hubby, but i guess I didn't so here it is.

My future chef!!

Since I have more free time, I can go back to indulging in making cookies. I made these really good cookies one day, chocolate crinkles, and Jason took most of them to work with him and the rest, most of them went to the ladies I visit teach. So of course I had to make more. Brenna wanted to be a big helper. She did such a good job. She poured in all the ingredients, and even mixed them (I had to help after a bit with that part). After the cookies chilled in the fridge, she helped roll them in powdered sugar and then roll them into balls. They turned out yummy!!!!

My wonderful husband

So whenever I try to get a picture of Jason he always does something to ruin the picture. He usually sticks his finger up his nose or puts something just enough over his face that it ruins it. Well, I actually got a picture of him that he wanted me to take....but it wasn't much better. We were visiting his cousin in the hospital and decided to play around with the gloves.......I know.....I know....I live with him.
