I have sacrificed the last 4 Thursday night through Saturday nights for Mikey to go up to the cabin and build a tree house. The kids and I have missed him like crazy, but it was so worth it! We got to finally see it on Saturday. It truly is a masterpiece! They had to work in the snow some weekends, and now they have to just lacquer everything before the snow is here to stay.
Our not so little Savannah "Savi" Ruth Jenson turned 3 today! This morning she got to open a few presents with new clothes, and Mikey left for work late to make her a special breakfast of homemade crepes with nutella. Grandma Jenson took her to McDonalds for lunch and then to a pumpkin patch while I finished making the cookies and getting things ready for a little party with the neighbor girls. I kept things simple with a homemade ball pit, simple craft and cute easy food. We actually celebrated her birthday 3 times. On Saturday we had the Jenson clan up at the cabin, then Sunday we had Sarah and Jana at the house. Savi is so sweet and is always surprising us. We love her so much!
Carter is such a sweet big brother and an awesome helper! He helped me with putting my food storage back in order, and he is always super loving to Sadie. He's off track of school for most of October, but that hasn't slowed him down. Everyday he is coloring, cutting, and gluing project after project. Our entry way is always a mess, but it's fun to see him enjoy it since before kindergarten he wasn't really interested on any of it. We love seeing him grow and develop more personality and skills.
Sadie can not be appeased as easily as the other kids with a paci, but she loves her fists and in the Bumbo she can get a hold of them real good.
Mike's sister got a cute little bird named Levi, and Savi being the lover of animals had a great time holding him.
