Grab Bag from the Last Couple of Days

I have some pictures that I want to share that didn’t specifically fit into the posts I wrote. So today will be something of a mixed bag, but I like that ☺️ Hopefully you do, too! Some are pictures Brady took. Some are progress pictures. Some are pictures Facebook showed me that I loved all over again. Anyway, enjoy!

Remember how I said Waverly loves to dress up? I wasn’t kidding. She asked to wear one of my tank tops the other day. “Wear this?”

A couple of days ago, Wavy wanted me. ME. I am rarely her answer for comfort. Always her daddy. But that day, it was mommy all the way. And of course, as you’d expect, it was when I had my hands full already, standing at the stove. But I was so happy she wanted me ❤️ So we fried bacon together. I even gave her her own purple tongs to play with.

Come to think of it, she probably just wanted the bacon. I don’t blame her.

So this isn’t a great picture, but Rowan threw up the other morning. He wasn’t sick after the fact so I’m not sure what actually happened, but he was ok. But, when he wasn’t feeling well, he came upstairs to our room and we got him a bucket just in time. Dekker heard the commotion and came upstairs to help. He is SUCH a loving, willing brother. Once Rowan’s nausea had subsided, Dekker helped Ro get settled downstairs on the couch with blankets, a bucket, his water, etc. Sorry he’s in his underwear, but, real life.

The day Rowan barfed was the day I was away, actually. Thank goodness he rallied right after throwing up and was firing on all cylinders for the rest of the day! That day turned out to be a cute one. Dekker worked on his Smithsonian kit thing and chiselled for diamonds all morning. He was both excited and dusty.

Laela played with Waverly, and built Duplo with her. Wavy loves her siblings SO much.

And no pictures of Solomon, lol! Because it was a busy enough day that sometimes, stuff gets missed. Sorry, Solly! We love you!

Then Facebook reminded me that we bought our van 🚌 three years ago! Look at little Rowan back there!

And look at him again!! 😍 He is SO cute!! They all are!!

One last flashback picture…

Sollys round head and little tongue 😛

The one thing I splurged on yesterday was a little decorative Christmas tree. You might know, if you’ve followed along long enough, that we put little mismatched trees up above our kitchen cabinets every year. I didn’t buy any new ones last year or maybe even the year before, so I bit the bullet and bought a cute little weird one yesterday.

Its dilapidated and awkward and crooked and I love it. It fits us perfectly.

Brady finished the tile under the laundry machines! Woop woop!

Lastly, I offer you a picture of my happy, albeit messy, place. (Our new duvet is part of that!)

I have SO many fun projects on the go and I need to get moving! I was at a standstill for a bit there, lacking the colours I needed to complete half-finished projects. And now that I have almost all the colours I need, I have no excuse left! While I organize gifts and make crafty plans, Brady is outside, saws running and dust flying, as he cuts MDF in our front yard. We are both working, in different ways, to complete our projects. Its a good season.
