My Dad is the coolest.

By -
We had a pretty good day today. Autumn is still a little bit cranky which makes me wonder if something else is going on. I'll just say she is teething like I always do. Maybe, one day she will have teeth, or even a tooth. We had a super lame dinner. I am waiting until you get home to do some grocery shopping. Speaking of the kitchen, why does Autumn always feel the need to tear it apart? I swear, when I walked in there today, I thought you were home already. I found the culprit though:

Why does my kitchen look like this?
The Destructionator. Maybe I should show Autumn the long arm of the law:

Puny arm.
Which brings me to my next point. When you have wimpy arms like that and a husband who is always gone, you have to find some one/thing to open jars for you. SO glad we have this:

Second husband.
My uber strong second husband.

In a few minutes, I will be getting Autumn ready for bed. She wanted to tell you:

My Dad
My Dad

Is the
Is The

Coolest!
Coolest!

I say:
According to him.
According to him!!! xoxox

I close with the count:

Day Seven.

Your Favorite Wife and Airman. xoxoxo

Alyssa just turned three months, and I swear she's starting to teethe. I know it would be unusual if she was, as teething doesn't usually start until at least 6 months, but lately she's been cranky and extraordinarily drool-y. So I'm chalking it up to that, and buying her an amber necklace (which supposedly eases the pain of teething). At what age did Autumn appear to start teething? (Even though she doesn't have any teeth yet!) :)

Some of my friends children had teeth coming in as early as 4 months old, so it could very well be that she is teething. My Sister in law- the one with the triplets (she also blogs on here) uses those Amber necklaces for all 3 triplets, her husband, and even she wears one. She swears by them :-) I would say Autumn "appeared" to start teething around six months old. We are still waiting for a tooth.

Snowzilla.

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

Playing with fire.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e...

The man in the box.

Not really, it is just Autumn but saying the little girl in the box doesn't sound as cool. Autumn got in the box and was popping out of it. Then she told me, "Mommy, go that way." I think Autumn is on the tail end of this "cold." She already seems to be feeling better. Her nose is drying up, so that is good. I gave both of the girls a bath tonight, then I even got one! Emelia did something today that shocked me..... She rolled over. Of course that happened the day after you leave. Something else that waited for you to leave..... a 4.9 earthquake. It was the first time I've actually felt one since we moved to Alaska. It was, to say the least, scary to me! It did sound like a train/car/plane hit the house. Autumn was in rare form today. She told me that: She was going to take a nap on the stairs. Just kidding!! Such a sweet girl. Tomorrow we go to the Buckner gym for the first time with Emelia. I'm feeling a little nervous about it, but I'm...
