Alex has helped Wade remove our old fence all weekend. He loves to “help” Daddy do projects.
Month: September 2011
Alex is pretty good about going to bed. He loves his shower and his two books. Sometimes when he actually gets in the bed he isn’t quite ready to be left alone and he says, “Make me happy.” I have no idea where he got this phrase, but it just about melts my heart. And of course we have one more song before turning out the lights.
Alex loved listening to the live music at our neighbor’s party.
It was a typical Saturday at the Burch house. Alex has started sleeping an extra hour in the mornings, which means Wade and I do too! I finished watering the flowers and Alex and Phoenix decided to wash their cars:
Working hard, just like Daddy.
Our favorite kind of evening.
When I went to get Alex in his crib this morning he was excited to show me his “tattoo”. (I had a meeting last night and Wade took Alex for custard before bed.)
As we were getting ready for the day, Alex saw me painting my toenails. He has requested to have his done in the past and I always put him off. Today I gave in figuring he would have shoes on most of the day. Darn if he didn’t manage to take them off everywhere we went (including open house for MDO).
A fort, Burch-style. Made of two sawhorses, a paint drop cloth, and random scrap lumber.
