Buisy as... Hornets?

Well, we certainly have been busy little bees, or maybe I should say hornets. That would be more fitting I think. Our little family got to spend the last week of summer break up with our family in Kennewick Wa. It was so much fun to hang out with my husbands sisters and all of Little E's cousins. We even got to tear down a hornet infested swing set while we were there. How can you beat that? First we had to burn it from the inside out using (to my pyromaniac of a husbands delight) lighter fluid. He got to climb on top of the monkey bars and spray the fluid into the center of the logs, then moments later have columns of flames spewing from the tops of all four surrounding logs. He had a total blast!

Yes, that is my sister in law with an ax. And yes, she is "Freakishly Strong" just ask her husband.

Little E had a great time trying to hang out with all the "big" kids and learning all kinds of things from her little cousin who is only a month older than her. They taught each other all kinds of neat things. Little E taught her cousin how to sign baby (they lay on the floor looking at each other signing baby over and over again as fast as they could. Thats why they were laying on the floor, they signed it so excitedly they fell over).
Then her cousin taught her to say cracker or "Kwahkah" and to sign both please and thank you. (Way to teach politeness little cuz!)

We also got to go to the park by the river with her older cousins. They are all growing up so fast. Don't beleive me? Here's some proof!


That's right! Those guns are lethal you better beleive it!


We all had a great time, Little E really enjoyed terorizing a nearby puppy. He couldn't stop and rest for more than 10 seconds without her trying to give him all kinds of loves. It was pretty cute.

We really had fun up in Kennewick and can't wait to go visit at Thanksgiving. Three day's is just not enough time to spend with such a fun family!


Since My loving husband has gone back to work he has really enjoyed putting Little E to bed. I really enjoy being surprised by some other funny thing he has done during the bedtime routine. The other night I came in to kiss her goodnight to find he had don't her hair in a different manner than usual...

Well, that prooves it! She really is a little rascal! :)

Well, I have to go. The rascal has woken up from her nap and she sounds kinda cranky. I have a couple of videos to post later tonight, so done forget to come back and check them out. They include her first ever cookie dough! How cool is that? :) She is mama's little girl.
