About Me

Oslo, Norway
Welcome to my blog! I am a wife and a Mommy of three. We have 2 daughters, Reagan and Hayden and a son, Grasyon. Here I write about our life happenings and try to capture memories the best I can. I hope this helps keep those close to us, in Texas, Iowa, Illinois, and beyond, a little more up to date while we're away. Enjoy!

Our Weekends

Our weekends, Sunday's since Darrin works on Saturdays, are usually filled with a whole lotta nothing. We might run up somewhere for an hour or two, but usually we just stay in and hang out together. It helps to make the day go by not as fast and we enjoy our day at home. There are the occasional beach weekends, but for the most part we just relax at home. 

I haven't blogged about our weekends in a while because, well, there really isn't anything to blog about. But yesterday I was going through all of my pictures and realized how much fun we really do have just hanging out. So without further ado (or adieu), here is a glimpse of our weekends.

We play a lot upstairs. Reagan loves to swing, or just hang on the swing like Tarzan. Sometimes she pushes Minnie or Tee Dee (Reagan's friend whom I have yet to blog about) in there.


Grayson just watches from the sidelines.

And if they're not swimming in the hot tub, they are fishing in it.




Grayson walks around in his car. 




And plays with all his toys.



"What's sister watching on t.v.?"



Grayson is finally getting to an age where he is a little more fun to Reagan. The past few weeks I have noticed them playing together and it totally melts my heart. It's amazing to watch the instant bond between siblings. I can't wait to watch their relationship as they grow older.








She reads books to him.



And he chews on some. 



He is quite the drooly little guy lately. 











These pictures make me laugh.










Lots and lots of playing in the living room. 







Darrin always has better ideas than I do. Just when I think we have run out of things to stay entertained, he manages to come up with something else that is even more fun than before. 






We have tea parties. 





Lounge in our p'j's,


drink coffee, and take naps.



It's been doing a lot of raining. We had a tropical storm a few weeks head our way and are in another one now. Makes for some looooong days inside the house.

Reagan and her whole gang watching the rain.










The gang teaching Grayson how to crawl. 




Sweet girl. 







Stud muffin. 







We have another little open area upstairs. Sometimes we, I, lay out up there. I take a bucket of water up and a few toys for her to play with. I always have high hopes that it will last a while, but after about 15 minutes, she is always ready to come back in.


















We always read stories before bedtime. 




And we end each night with a bath. Look at my big boy sitting up in his bath.
