Owen is so whipped. This is what just happened. Owen is laying on the dog bed with Hurley and his blanket. Reed says, "Owen, can I come lay with you?" Then she's sharing his blanket. Then she's got the dog. Then she's complaining because he's taking up too much of the bed and blanket. Next thing you know, Owen is going to get her pillow and tucking his blanket in around her and Hurley and there's no room left for him. All the while he's offering to do everything she wants and she's saying things like "isn't he sweet, mommy?" And he's beaming.

Catching up
Last weekend we surprised Mark's family in NC with a visit. Here are a few photos and videos.
The surprise. Aunt Elizabeth was the only one who knew we were coming. She got everyone upstairs and told them that there was a gift being delivered from Craigslist. We snuck in and were waiting on the couch when they came down. E had them singing so they wouldn't hear us (Grant, you kept saying, "dog!").
On the front porch.
Running in the front yard with Ethan, Madeline, and Elijah.
At Lexington barbecue... Kids' table!
Front porch at night.
Pound cake for everyone. :)
Eli, Grant, and Owen playing DS.
Ethan taking all the little kids for a ride.
Big cousins.
Daddy trying to make Owen's "face"
Owen making the same face. :)
Breakfast before we left to go home.

One more thing for Reed
Yesterday you poured baby powder all over Grant & Owen's room, opened a gift that my friend gave me and lost part of it during naptime (you were in our room because you and Owen wouldn't stop talking), and then smeared diaper cream all over Carson & Grant'a bed, the rocking horse, the carpet, and your face. Double sigh.
Late night note to Reed & Owen
It's 9:57... 2 hours after your bedtime and you're still giggling in your room. No amount of threatening seems to have any effect. Sigh.

Night out with the kiddos
We took the kids by the house to check out their bedrooms and the view from the front window. Met some neighbors who seemed very nice!
Then we went to Waffle House which was a crazy enough experience that there are no pictures. :) On the way home, there were spy goggles donned to look for the house. When you see our home, yell, "home!"
