Cute Will Stories

My goal is to blog once a week now that we have the internet back. So we'll see how that goes but for this week I'm on top of it :)

Yesterday, I was working upstairs on our Halloween costumes (which are going to be awesome!). Sadie, who is not allowed upstairs by herself, followed me up. I thought well I'm up here so it's ok and continued working. Then, I heard her whining very impatiently. I thought she had to really go to the bathroom and was at the back to to be let out. Which is pretty impressive instead of peeing on the carpet :( So I ran downstairs to see what was up. I couldn't find her downstairs but, as I was walking back upstairs she came running out of Will's room. She was all worked up because Will was asleep in his crib. I think she thought he was hurt or stuck or something. During all of this commotion Will woke up and started crying so Sadie hoped up on her hind legs and started licking his fingers through the slates. Maybe those two will actually become friends after all.

So later on that afternoon I was still working on our Halloween costumes! I had a movie on to help direct my costume making (we're characters from a movie but you'll find out which one when I'm done with them). Anyways, I paused the movie in a good frame to copy the costume and went into the other room to work. Will was playing and crawling around on the floor. When all of the sudden I here the radio on. I walked back into the room and see Will standing and the DVD player turning the volume up and down. It was pretty funny particularly since he had his hand on the volume knob just right and looked like he actually knew what he was doing. I'm going to try and add a video of it, but I must say the video is not that good. However, I haven't put any videos of the kid up yet so it might still be fun. I promise to have better pictures next week. Until then have a great week everyone!

Oh yeah, I'm thinking of trying to sell Diaper Cakes, and Dishtowel Cakes on Craig's List so I have some guilt-free money to spend on projects. What do you guys think? Bobbi Lee I know you did Diaper Cakes for a while are you still doing them?

The Hunt for the Great Pumpkin

I'm sorry to everyone who gets our blog by email and just received this 3 times. Me and blogger were fighting I think we're better now. Look at this post the story should line up here. :)


This is my dad and me. Today we are going on a hunt for the Great Pumpkin! "Each year, the Great Pumpkin rises out of the pumpkin patch that he thinks is the most sincere."
Ok, Dad lets check this spot. It looks like there's a lot of nice pumpkins over here.
No, this isn't it. None of these pumpkins are big enough to be THE Great Pumpkin. We had better keep looking.
Mmm, It looks like there might be a clue here. Come Dad have a look and see what you think.
Yes, yes I see what you mean these pumpkins are not round enough to be the Great Pumpkin.


And so Will continued to look High and Low for the Great Pumpkin.
Time to grab a snack and refuel. mmm, corn...stalk?
I don't even see any pumpkins here. This is going to be harder than I thought. Maybe, I should change my mode of transportation.
By Land or ...
By air?
Well since the Great Pumpkin should be on the ground maybe I'll drive.

Now I just need to figure out how to turn this thing on...



Ah, there we go now we're cruising
Well these pumpkins are definitely getting larger.
"He's gotta pick this one. He's got to. I don't see how a pumpkin patch can be more sincere than this one. You can look around and there's not a sign of hypocrisy. Nothing but sincerity as far as the eye can see."
"Hey aren't you going to stay to great the Great Pumpkin? Huh? It won't be long now. If the Great Pumpkin comes, I'll still put in a good word for you!
....
Good grief I said 'if'! I meant 'when' he comes!
...
I'm doomed. One little slip like that could cause the Great Pumpkin to pass you by. Oh Great Pumpkin, where are you?
"STUPID? What do you mean 'stupid'? Just wait 'til next year, Charlie Brown. You'll see! Next year at this same time, I'll find the pumpkin patch that is real sincere and I'll sit in that pumpkin patch until the Great Pumpkin appears. He'll rise out of that pumpkin patch and he'll fly through the air with his bag of toys. The Great Pumpkin will appear and I'll be waiting for him! I'll be there! I'll be sitting there in that pumpkin patch and I'll see the Great Pumpkin. Just wait and see, Charlie Brown. I'll see the Great Pumpkin. I'll SEE the Great Pumpkin! Just you wait, Charlie Brown. The Great Pumpkin will appear and I'll be waiting for him..."


Happy Halloween Everyone!
Grandpa Baune this was for you we hope you enjoyed it!
