Theater Room 'Bauer Kid Style'

 I cleaned out the car yesterday so I ended up with all the car-seats inside the house.  The kids are loving it.  This is how they watched a movie today.  Harriett isn't usually in a booster seat but she got Henri's booster from Micah's car so she could be part of the fun.  This is probably as close as we will ever get to an actual theater room.

Popcorn and a movie.  Life is good.

In case you were wondering, two years of food and toy buildup under two car-seats is pretty disgusting.  No pictures.  Believe me, you wouldn't want to see.

Luxury reclined seating.

I came home yesterday to this.  Each book is rock to step on so Pink Power Ranger Puppy (Hazel) didn't have to step in the mud.

I forget that I am aging.

In my mind I am still 20. In my mind I could go up to BYU and fit in with the college kids. It wasn't until I was looking through some old family photos that I realized that I am getting older. We are all getting older. Darn it. Yeah, I am 17 years older than a college freshman. How did that happen?



I have to say though that I think I looked better when I was pregnant with Henri than I did when I was pregnant with Harriett. Darn those really bad, really short haircuts.

Halloweeners

Let's just pretend we update our blog regularly.

Here are the kids at Halloween. We had a never ending Halloween weekend starting with watching Henri's kindergarten program, trick or treating at Micah's work, and trunk or treating on two different days. We didn't end up trick or treating around the neighbourhood because it was raining. The kids didn't really complain since they already had tonnes of candy.


Our little Candy Corn.


The cutest Jailbird ever.


Rock'n'Roll Henri. The battle axe shaped guitar was his idea.


Baby Harriett. She has been begging me for years for her very own pacifier. This was the only way I would let her have one. She was allowed to use it for Halloween and that was it. For some reason seeing Harriett with a pacifier totally creeped me out.

Blue Patrick's Day 2010

Sunday, Henri decided that yesterday was "Blue Patrick's Day." Our celebration consisted of wearing blue (and, of course, pinching people who aren't wearing blue), blueberries for lunch, blue punch with dinner and blue frosted cookies for dessert. Oh, and taking silly pictures on the computer (with our neighbor Tessa).



It was a good time.

Harriett got glasses.

Don't you think she looks adorable? Crooked half missing teeth and all.

I made bread....

and it was super tasty.

Hazel turns 2

Hazel had a birthday yesterday. It was a laid back family affair with a couple presents and a little cake decorating. She is so much fun right now. She is head strong and can throw a tantrum with the best of them but she is also soooo funny, loves to laugh and loves her brother and sisters. She loves to dance and sing and 'play' the piano. We just can't get enough of her.

The cake.

Hazel loading the cake up with sprinkles. She used the whole bottle.

This is what Hazel does when we ask her smile. Love that kid.
