In a RUT!!

I am in a cooking rut and need help. I keep making the same things over and over again because they are easy. I am enlisting all my blog friends help. If you have a great EASY recipe please comment. I am sick of chicken enchiladas, so is Carl (who is nice enough to tell me he likes them and that they get better on the 4th day), and Garrick loves me enough to chew and swallow anything I put in his mouth. I look forward to something new at least.

Fun Weekend

My brother came in for the weekend so we got together with my family a couple of times. We had a really good time, Garrick loves Josh he chases him all over and they wrestle. The funniest thing was when we were at my Mom's house Garrick found this wig and put it on. He looked hilarious.















Marley doesn't do much but she got doted on a ton because she the is the newest baby in the family. I only got to hold her when she had to eat. This is the cute hat I got her at the Gap. It was finally cold enough for her to wear it.

Halloween Help

I have been searching for costumes for the kids without much luck. What I have decided I want to do is have them coordinate; so I found a cute angel costume for Marley and then I'd have Garrick be the devil. I was trying to think of some other duos we could do with the two of them. If you can think of one, leave a comment.

Busy. . .but not.

It seems like we have had a ton going on but nothing really significant to talk about so I thought I'd update on my cute kids.

Garrick is getting funny and breaking my heart, this morning when I woke him up and told him that we were going to Laura's he said, "I don't want to go to Wara's, I want to stay in the house. Alright, alright." He says "alright" after everything. He also is growing up really quickly. He came upstairs and asked for a snack, we got him some pretzels he walked downstairs with his cup of pretzels when he spilled them he carefully picked them up. After he finished them he came back upstairs and announced that he wanted a drink and proceeded to fill up his cup at the fridge. When he wants to play he tells me, "Put him down, right here." (Referring to Marley of course)

Marley is such a cutie and a great baby. (Don't ask me how I got so lucky.) She is sleeping through the night most nights, and the others she sleeps from about 10:00 pm to 3:00 am. She loves to talk I have been trying tirelessly to get this on tape, every time I bring out the video camera she clams up. She talks and laughs when you change her diaper, it is so cute. She definately has her Dad wrapped around her tiny finger, he brags incessantly about how good she is.

We're just lucky and living our boring life, but are of course overjoyed that our "shows" are back on. We love Heros and Chuck.

Two Months

So Marley is just over two months she is growing well and is now in the 50% for everything. I got looking back at pictures of Garrick and can't believe how different they are. So here is a little look at the kids, you can tell me whether you think they look at all alike.

Marley at 2 months and Garrick at 2 months.
