Housesitting at Meema's

Feeding the Fish:

Day 1: *sings* "Its raining fooooooood in the fish tank."
Day 4: "Oh watch out the fat one is gonna eat all the food!"
Day 6: "Enjoy your lunch!"

So far on the other days he wasn't behaving enough to feed the fish.

I love being at my mom's house. We go to the park every day, and we spend time with old friends. Natie's best friend Bella has a new swing set and a huge yard so we've walked over there almost every day since we've been out here.

Today we went to the park before it got hot, I think that tomorrow this is what will happen also. He is such a good helpin boy. We have done like 10 loads of laundry from my house, and he helps me make food. I think I owe Meema some food.

I took living out here for granted when I did live out here. It is nice having a washer and dryer where I am staying, and a big yard. It is also so much easier to keep it clean when its not my house! (Haha)

More later, it has been a long while since I updated. Maybe next time it will be with camping photos.

Natie's batman costume. He says to me, "I'm Batman! You're Batgirl. We're in love." Though I guess when he is at his Meema's she gets to be Batgirl too.

Natie Gram #7 (Catch-up!)

Okay so it has been a while. I am sorry for that...Summertime just took me away. So here are the mohawk photos.

So here they are. :) More to come!

Natie's Christmas List

Nathanial has informed me that I need to tell EVERYONE what he wants for Christmas. The list is what it was last year, though he didn't get anything on it because he kept changing his mind. They are Buzz, Woody, Jessie, and the Alien's friends...

He wants...

1. Bullseye
2. Slinky Dog
3. Rex
4. Pig (Ham)

If there are any changes I will update it. I linked Amazon because it was the easiest though around Christmas time last year Wal*Mart had all of these items.

Sorry it has been so long. A lot of stuff has happened and we have been incredibly busy. Here is a photo update of the last two weeks of our lives. His Aunt Cici sure loves to play with him in the pool! He is such a lucky boy to be surrounded by beautiful women all the time!

As you all know I am sure, we have given the boy a mohawk. He looks absolutely adorable. The mohawk video and photos will be in the next Natie Gram. This one is sort of a catch up one. More tomorrow!

Natie Gram #5

Nathanial has been absolutely adorable lately. Though he has also been very very frustrating. We have been spending a lot of time at his Aunt Cici's house and he doesn't know how to follow the rules very well. He has been very cute so it has made up for it.

He has been improving his photography. We got him to take some photos at the pool the other day and he did a GREAT job. He makes me so very proud.

He is constantly asking when his Meema will come back into town. She is backpacking and he misses her so very much.

Natie Gram # 4

Sorry so much time has passed! So much has happened, photo update on that in another post coming soon. Though, for this Natie Gram I decided to share old videos that happen to be on my youtube. I intend on uploading many more in the next few days. In the meantime however, here are these.


















I really hope you enjoyed them as much as I did!

Something Fun

Nate and I spent the morning watching these Youtube videos. I am sharing them because it has been a wonderful day to watch videos. The clouds came out and well what else is there to do when the clouds come out, other than cuddle the cute little guy on the couch. Especially the first one.











I really hope you all enjoy these as much as we did today!

Natie Gram #3

So last night I asked Nate if he saw anyone flush anything down the toilet, it has been acting weird for a whole week. He said no. Then he starts in with, "I just didn't like my old blue toothbrush." That got my attention. So, after a long interrogation he finally said that he did in fact flush it down the toilet. He did this because he thought I would get mad because he didn't like it anymore. Then he said, "It's okay papa can come fix it again."

With that I told him I was mad and he needed to think about it and go to bed. At this point it was 8, which is his bedtime. An hour later I went to check on him, sometimes I worry. Well, I open the door and look over to his bed. He is laying there with the blankets over him. I could tell he was up to something.

I pull the blanket back and find him COMPLETELY COVERED IN MARKERS! Black and green markers. I am like laughing so hard at this point there is no way I can properly punish him while laughing. I made him show Dan and get in the bath, for a second time that night. I do have to admit though, I am proud of him. It took dedication and focus to do this.

His punishment for not going to bed on time however is he has to wear pajamas all day today. He hates wearing them in public, and I figure a little humiliation will be good for him. He needs to understand that my word is law and he needs to follow it.

Today we went to his aunt Cici's pool, and got to play with his friend Bella. It was wonderful to spend a day in the sunshine. Though he got a bee sting, he still played in the pool for most of the four hours we were there.

Mind the bad quality these were taken on my phone.

All the detail was in the hands, they were completely black.
