Be Creative: January 31, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

With parents that write and edit for a living, it's only natural that Reed would have a penchant for writing as well. He writes very fun stories and we always love reading them.

Be Nashville: January 30, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

Be Yummy: January 25, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

Be Healthy: January 23, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

Will has had a couple of spots on his face so we decided to take him to the peds. The spots were minor, but they found he had an ear infection. Thankfully, Will loves to take medicine. Of course, Will loves to do anything ... Except going to bed.

Be Full: January 22, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

Today was cold and yesterday was a little bit snowy. It must have been snowier north of here because school was canceled for the boys. Abbey took the boys to McDonalds to play and apparently Tuck really enjoyed his burger.

Be Warm: January 21, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

It's cold in Tennessee. Abbey fixed the boys some nice Hot Chocolate for their after school treat. Of course, Reed wasn't too cold to remember to play with his iPod.

Be Imaginary: January 20, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

Sweet Nash, he has quite the imagination. Today he put together a armor of epic proportions. And yes, that is a toilet seat in the middle of our living room.

Be Samurarais: January 19, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

We wanted the boys to see they had their own Chinese symbols for their names instead of using the Power Rangers symbols. They were excited to use their chops.

Be Buddies: January 18, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

The Choates came over to help me get the boys to bed since I can't lift Tuck right now. The boys were excited to get to play with Wyatt and Ally.

Be Radical: January 17, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

Today Will really needed his surfboard and then he decided to really ride the waves. What I don't understand is why he needed to out two pool sticks underneath his surfboard, but he did.

Be Lola: January 16, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

Lola agreed to come to town for Abbey to go to Texas to train VBS leaders. She did not, however, realize that she was agreeing to also take care of me post-op. She's been great to have around this week, though. The boys are going to be sad next week when it's just me and Abbey.

Be Curious: January 15, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

Life with Will is a lot like living with Curious George. He is curious about everything and doesn't have any trouble digging through every item of clothing in the house to find exactly what he wants to wear.

Be Restful: January 14, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

Since my surgery on Monday, the boys have taken very good care of me. It is hard for them to remember not to climb all over me, but the cuddles are the absolute best.

Be Up: January 13, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

Tonight after supper the boys wanted a little treat. Is gave them Push-ups which apparently meant they had to stand up to eat them. I also had surgery on my back today which means I can now stand up without excruciating pain shooting through my right leg.

Be Studious: January 12, 2014: LandLife Pic of the Day

Sunday nights are when Reed gets his homework done. I have learned that I'm not the best parent at helping my kid with homework. I get a little impatient. Abbey is great.
