I een a mall pider pin ilk in the now

(I've seen a small spider spin silk in the snow)

You remember the band Presidents of the United States of America? Well their lead singer made a cool CD call Caspar Babypants that my sister-in-law Kim sent over last weekend. Like Kim, I don't usually enjoy the baby CD's so much, especially after hearing them time and time again. Most of them are a little too sing-songy and the subject matter is usually pretty lame. But alas, Casper Babypants is a CD for all to enjoy. It is the most innovative, creative, unique and fun CD I have ever heard. It's even quite enjoyable musically--he's great on guitar.

Anyway, Caspar Babypants as he calls himself (the lead singer of The Presidents) is giving free--yes free--concerts for kids and their parents at our local King County library! Tyler and I are very excited. We would love if anyone wants to come with us. The link for more info is here. We are planning on going to the Federal Way 320th library on Friday, October 9th at 11:00am. I urge anyone with kids under the age of 5 to go with me. It will be really fun.

One of his songs is called I've Seen a Small Spider Spin Silk in the Snow. You'll notice the title of this blog is that song without the S's. The song is really fun and hard to sing when you drop the S and add new letters in. You'll find yourself singing it in the shower believe you me.

Ok so enough about that. Tyler is now officially weened from nursing, part of me is quite sad, though I had no choice in the matter, it was a medical decision on my part. I have bad migraines quite often and have been unable to treat them until now since the medication is bad for babies. Erik and I decided it was time to take care of me for a change and Tyler loves formula, has no problem with it whatsoever, and I feel very blessed by that. So of course the last few days I've been going around in a sports bra and immense pain, but we've all been there so that's nothing new.

Here are some pix of Tyler feeding himself and just being generally his cute self. He's 7 months old already, can you believe it?

Here is a link to his blog. He is so cool. When I was a kid listening to Millions of Peaches I never thought Chris Ballew would comment on my blog!

This post is not coming to you VIA Jennifer. This is her husband, Erik. I decided to hijack her blog (ah...the things you can do when in possession of another's password) and tell her how I feel about her. This will probably not be posted for long, I am sure as soon as she sees it she will remove it. HERE GOES! Jennifer, my dear, I love you oh so very much. On Monday is our 1 year anniversary! A whole year! That may not seem like much, but my oh my it has flown by quickly. Since you are a relative young'un that year actually represents around 4.76% of your entire lifespan(thus far). I still keep my eye out for things that represent 'US'. Who can forget the 'EJ' Truck? I have never stopped looking for, nor noting 28s as they pop up all over the place. I notice all of the little things you do. I notice the little faces you make. I notice the little noises you make. I notice the slight shifting of your posture in response to my incessant joking. This face was made...

Brandt Gibson in a Nutshell

The Amazing Kell Bjorn decided to start keeping track of everything Brandt Gibson said. Here are a select few: “I’m a horse of a different color!” “No Pain…No Pain.” “Nobody corrals me!” “Die!” “But on the other hand, you have different fingers.” “I’m not stressed, I’m not stressed; if you tell me I’m stressed…I’ll kill you.” “I parked around back in the shade, so it doesn’t get 65,000 degrees in my car.” “Yeah, things you don’t want to hear from your bank…‘Oops’.” "You've been tasered!" "Click-click-a-click...booyah!" “Blame it on Kell, it’s all his fault…It was either Kell or Canada and you’re closer.” “Girls just want to have Lu-unch…” “I have been Dudded.” (After receiving some Milk Duds) “Get out of my Chaaiirrr.” (Said with a low raspy evil voice) “Gloria’s here…ruuunnn!” “That is highly possible…just not probable.” “Gift of tongues Kell, enjoy it.” “Revenge is a dish that is best served cold.” “Don't you think? Please use this well. Marriage becomes...

Escrow

Well we found the perfect house for us on Thursday! We put the offer on today and they accepted! We expect to close the third week of March! I knew it was the right one as soon as I walked in the door. The picture below shows half the house, you can't see the whole thing on Google Earth because of the trees. It's been updated really well, but it has a few things we can still do to get more value out of it when we sell it in a few years. It's totally cute on the inside, just under 2000 square feet and has a great yard and deck. It came with some nice perks too, so we're really excited. I'll have a nice big housewarming party so you can all see it in April once we're settled in! Yay! Ok so the sad part is, we won't be in the Dash Point Ward anymore. :( We'll be in the Federal Way ward so we're still in the stake at least. It's really sad because I totally love our ward, it's awesome and I love my calling with the Young Women but at least I w...
