Scarred for Life

Having a new baby at home has lot's of new and exciting things for everyone to get used to. As you can see from this video, Jackson is just trying to feel like he is a part of everything. With three children, you have NO PRIVACY. This is why Jack is able to put on this show for you all.

Here is my baby girl!! This dress is so amazing. Thank you Grandma Gale for your beautiful work!

Some good creative reasoning

Yesterday Max said that he didn't have to bathe for a few extra days because he washed his hair twice in the shower on Sunday. Interesting logic???

My new life

So last night was a great glimpse into my new life. We ordered Max the very beginner piano book with Star Wars music in it. He has been going to the mail box multiple times a day waiting for it. When it came yesterday, he realized that even though it was beginner, it was still too advanced for him. He was a little frustrated so I sat down with my very limited knowledge and was able to plunk out his part in the music. Each song has a coordinating duet with it that allows for a more realistic sounding version. Eldon came home while I was trying to help and pushed me off the bench.

Here is where the glimpse begins. Eldon is playing the Darth Vader song on the organ setting which makes it sound really cool at about 6000 decibals. Max is leaping through the house making amazing light saber noises. Jackson is crying because it is scary and too loud. Claire rolls her eyes literally and just sighs while I am holding her. Since we have the ability to record songs on Eldon's piano, I have had the priveledge of enjoying the Darth Vader Death March all day today with a very happy, light sabering five year old, very scared and sad 3 year old, and a very patient infant. Who says that a career is more entertaining and fulfilling???
