Sleepy Jumper

Lincoln fell asleep in the jumper...I usually don't put him in right before a nap, but Libby insisted he wanted to go jumping.

Kendra's Bday!

Libby helping Kendra blow out her candles...Duane's head is blocking Camden in the Exersaucer.
Duane made a feast of Steak, Lobster, Potatoes, Garlic Bread and Salad...an obscene amount of food...the steak was enough for me...my plate is the lobsterless one.
At the table waiting to dive in....
Lincoln and Libby trying out their chairs.

Deck Stained....

Well the deck floor has been stained, now water just sits on top of the wood.
Still have to stain all the rails and spindles....we are suppose to have 3 sunny days in a row (Wed-Fri) but Payzant's ran out of my stain color...so hopefully more come in today on the truck.

Deck & Ants

This is the old dirty, grey colored deck before I cleaned it with the special deck cleaner to revive old wood before staining.
Hard to tell...but clean new looking wood ready for stain.
If you find ants in your house this is the best stuff to get rid of them instantly. Libby had some in her closet, so I stripped everything off the floor in her room, vacuumed the carpet and baseboards and sprayed this all around the baseboards. It doesn't have a very nice smell so we opened the window, turned her fan on high and shut her door for most of the day. She slepted in our room and the room was good to go today. And no ants to be found anywhere...that was immediately after I sprayed.
I use to use that sticky stuff you would leave for the ants and they would eat it and take it back to their anthill and kill everyone...but that is too hard to use with kids who may want to taste the sticky ant killer.

Today's Events - May 20

I went in to get the laundry during Lincoln's morning nap...this is how he slept...sitting up, folded forward.
Libby & I made cookies & muffins
We were outside scrubing the deck, preparing for stain and weeding the beds around the house.
She was tired and fell asleep in the chair...too much fun today.
I moved her to the couch for a more comfortable nap
