Flowers

 On Thursday, Lil G spent the day with his Opa and Gogie again, while mama recuperated from her illness.  When he came home, he brought a beautiful bouquet of "flowers", made out of paper, buttons and straws.  He was so very proud and he made his mama smile :-)

Apparently, Lil G thinks that you pose with things in front of your face.  A lot. 

Warm Fuzzies

Such a Sweetie!

Today, da mama came down with a wicked sinus infection. Truth be told, it's probably been settling in for awhile.  Anyway, Lil G got to spend the whole day with his Opa and Gogie (his Fish family grandparents).  I missed him so much!  He drives me batty sometimes but I just couldn't stop thinking about Lil G hugs all day.

When he came home, he gave mama such a sweet gift- a giant plastic flower!  He was so proud of his gift, and kept telling me all the colors and how "it make mama feel better".  And, you know what?  It surely did!

   

And, your eyes do not deceive you--the beautiful flower also doubles as a fly-swatter.  Presumably, to swat mama's sinus infection "bug".

The Saddest boy in the World

Lil G had a rough evening.  He ate a delicious dinner and had a small treat and then wanted another treat.

Wii!

 This week, we introduced Lil G to the wonders of the Wii.  We had multiple rainy days, where we were stuck inside so Greg and I decided to let Lil G get out some of his energy through Wii bowling. He is really great at the game! He is actually better than me.  It's nice that we have something to help the little man get out excess energy during the coming winter months.

Festival of Trees

This weekend, I took Lil G to the festival of trees, so that Greg could continue to work on our basement, in order to prepare for baby Minnow.  We were blessed enough to go with good friends, J, N and G.  The festival was fun, though a little overwhelming (especially with four kiddos).  The kids had a good time looking at the trees and Lil G got his very first balloon "animal" (which was actually a balloon hat).  And, the best part was that Greg and his friend were able to get a lot of the basement done!!

Snacktime!  J, G, N and Lil G!

And here is the super cute centerpiece that I got!  I am loving it!
