A few weeks later I hung a picture!
I have rearranged since then but it does look better with curtains and a picure. The couch is a favorite place for reading and watching a movie. I love how Cassia sits with the girls now, she loves reading too and is usually up and down for the movie. In this picture she is doing her usual thing sucking her thumb and playing with her hair! It has only been in the last few months that she started sucking her thumb during the day. Ever since she was a few days old she has only sucked her thumb in bed, but not anymore!! It sure is cute though!!
This is Christmas at Bryan's mom's. She had bought the girls these dresses the month before and she wanted them to wear them to her house for Christmas. They all look so grown up!!
Our beautiful 6 year old!!
Our crazy almost 5 year old!!
I use to be so thankful that we never had a mouse in our house, but life has changed now that we live in a country house!! Here is the second mouse that we caught. We gave Mr. Bingley a few nights to catch it, but he didn't so we had to get a trap. In the last few weeks about a week or so after we moved in I noticed what I thought might be mouse poop! It was just a very little bit and I never noticed a mouse getting into our food! But then lately there has been more and the favorite place was under our stove where I keep all the cookie trays! But still Mr. mouse was not getting into anyfood! The first night we.....well, I mean Bryan, put out the trap he put one by the stove and one in the pantry. Both had peanut butter. Mr. mouse was pretty smart and licked the peanut butter right off without setting off the trap by the stove. The one in the pantry was not touched. The next night Bryan wedged a chocolate chip on the trap by the stove and left the peanut butter one in the pantry. Mr. mouse was still pretty smart and got the chocolate chip, but he or his friend was not so smart with the peanut butter in the pantry, we caught him there! I was so happy to have caught the mouse and thought we were done, but Bryan was smarter then me and said that where there is one mouse there is probably another! So last night he set the trap by the stove, this time with a noodle! Sure enough we caught another mouse this morning! I let Bryan take care of the mice, and while he was getting rid of this one he commented on how he wants to get rid of the mice before they have babies and I couldn't help but comment to him that 'we know how quickly that can happen!!' I think one person, who shall remain nameless, once commented on Bryan and I being like mice, multiplying quickly!! :-) It was said in jest..........but I think that person was also hoping we were about done with the multiplying!! Though Bryan and I have enjoyed our babies, we would prefer to not allow the mice in our house to do so!! :-) By the way, I thought I would be so grossed out to have a mouse in my house, but it isn't that bad since they have not got into our food! Alteast not that I have noticed!
There is a glimpse into our country life!!
