On the Homefront

There's nothing too exciting going on these days at the old homestead, but I thought I'd share some everyday photos nonetheless. We are gearing up for Anders birthday this weekend, although festivities will be small and simple (read: supplied by Costco and Safeway). I would have liked to put more thought into things but we got new countertops this past week and have taken on tiling the backsplash ourselves, so there have been some late and messy evenings. And trips to Home Depot. With both teething kids. A half hour drive. By myself. A few times now. Probably could have made one trip but when you are wrangling two kids under the age of three, you spend time chasing one down the aisle while the other one (literally) eats your shopping list.

The orange cart. Always a great idea until the kids want to get out by aisle two and you are stuck pushing the empty awkward mammoth around the store.

Mystery of the missing snacks is now solved. Caught in the act stealing Landon's goods.

Evening stroll. Anders is a contender for the "My Mom Dressed Me" segment in this one.

Anders enjoying some trampoline time.

Landon having a tantrum in the middle of the post office. These moments must be captured, too. It's good birth control.
