Paint Sprayer

Since we decided to paint the baby's room Chris thought we would purchase a paint sprayer to spray all of the trim. Man I think this is the best $28 we've spent for a while. He was able to spray all of the trim in such a short time and he put a new coat of paint on the door. It made all of it look great and it was so fast!

I think he'll now be able to give all of our doors a new layer of paint in the next couple of weeks - lucky him!!!

TV Time

I just thought this picture was funny because there must have been something good on TV for both Ian and I to be watching so closely!

Painting

We decided this weekend to paint the baby's room. We originally were not going to do anything to the room - it was still decorated from when Ian was a baby but we had to make a change. So first up was paint. Ian was all about helping and he actually did a great job with the roller. Made my job a lot easier! And again he had to use his apron so he would not get dirty. We figure underwear and apron - best painting outfit for a 4 year old!

A is Apron

Last week at daycare they studied the letter A. Amanda is so great and bought them each their own little apron and put their names on them and then they each got to decorate them how they wanted. Ian brought his home and immediately had to use it for everything. Here he was helping with dinner! He was so proud of being the chef for dinner!

Baby Ian

Found this picture of Ian when he was probably 6 months old. What a chubby little boy!

LEGOS

Last weekend I let Ian take $10 of his saved money and buy a toy of his choosing. He decided he wanted a LEGOS police helicopter. I was a little concerned because I thought it might be to advanced for him. But I know Chris loves LEGOS so I thought what the heck we can help if he needs it and he'll learn some new skills - following written directions, etc.

So we got home and immediately started working on it. I sat by him if he had questions but for the most part he had it all figured out. Since then he's taken it apart and put it back together again many times. I think he's hooked on LEGOS. I don't think Chris is disappointed at all because that means Chris gets to play too!

The finished product!!

Pictures

Last week we went and had pictures taken with Becky Anderson, a local photographer. She was great and we've only seen the pictures she posted to her blog but I know I'm going to like everything she did. I would recommend her to anyone. We had a good time even though Ian was a cheese ball the entire time and was just worried about seeing the fish!

I'll post more pictures after we get them back from her! CLICK HERE to go to her blog.
