odds and ends

keeping the boys happy on moving day--heather knows best, stick those boys on a moving vehicle and they will totally forget they were crying to see their mama...


ummmmm....is this going to fit?!  pace has been the most positive of all of us during this move.  on the day we closed, we swung by our old house to make sure everything was looking good on the outside, and we turned around in the driveway.  pace immediately said, "daddy, this is not our house!"  the first week we were in our "in-between house", he would wake up, come running in, and say, "mommy, i love our 'tween house!", "mommy, i love our new fans!", "mommy, i love our new lights!", "i want to stay here allllllll the days!  i don't want to go to a nice, new, big house!"




i am pretty sure this is the day max's 105 fever broke.  he was a couch potato all day.


yup--it fits.  one room put away...


the fantastic four playing out back--i think they were playing tornado on that particular day.  they have been out there every day for 2-3 hours minimum, and when the cold snap hit this week, they've been up in our house, or downstairs in their house.  it's really funny to hear them talking while they are playing:
pace:  let's play tornado scientist!
tj:  what's a tornado scientist?
pace:  he has a radar on his truck and he studies tornados, but he can't get too close or he'll die.  tornados are dangerous.
tj:  he'll get sucked up?
pace:  yeah, the tornado will suck him up like this, an ef 5 (moving his hands in a circle to demonstrate a tornado)
