springtime!!!! mud and winking!

bubby has learned to wink!
this post is really all about the pictures since i just posted something not more than a few hours ago...today may be non-stop blog day....see what happens when someone gives me a laptop and wireless!
sadie's favorite statement
"Mommy stop talking I can not hear myself talking"

so what do you what to hear about kids or house???

i should present that as a survey.....since for the next few weeks perhaps a few months it will be a natural toss up on what you will read about
so here are so pics of the cuties
we are going to be kitchenless as of monday so i will post pictures and horror stories as they come in
and what sort of horror stories??? think with me for a minute....two kids no kitchen. need i say more.
i realized i have posted no pics of the bathroom in its some what complete state. we still have some trim work that we need to paint but for the most part we are totally done!!!!
i love saying that word DONE!
this weekend we will be experiencing real spring for cleveland that means rain and warm breezes.
today we are headed down to the beach to collect beach glass, rocks and who knows what else we will find....perhaps make a few mud pies as well
sadie and silas are both doing well. silas is talking non-stop he loves to correct you. for example a vulture is not a vulture but a turkey. sadie loves to correct him so we get a lot of "NO DEE DEE!!! NO"
so for now i am off to find buckets and pants.
hoping to roast some marshmellows and hot dogs this weekend in the backyard....but who knows what will happen

PS. this is bubby enjoying our new dishwasher! so happy we have learned about safety

kitchen oh my!

so i am posting pictures of the kitchen
if i had a free car to give away i would add this as a contest....
who can help us design the best kitchen!!!!
really it is fairly simple....we keep coming back to the same design and set up we have now
and that is not from trying to rearrange things but with a budget and limited time we could always use some ideas
we can not put any plumbing or gas lines on the outer wall with the window but aside from that we can be a bit creative (i think)
so send us some thoughts or support or home depot cards
