Bath Time

Bath time is quite the operation now with two kids.  I know you other parents can relate.  When we all need a bath or shower, it feels like the process takes hours.  Tilden is starting to get used to the tub.   And in case you're into that "Who does she look like?" ...here is a link to a pic of us bathin' Bright when he was about the same age.    

Extra Measure Ales

All three Walcott boys are now into brewing their own beer.  We haven't done three batches with all three brothers at once yet, but I'm sure that would end up being an all day project and tons of fun depending on if you ask one of the boys or one of their wives.  It's quite a complicated process, but they are quite cute and funny through the whole process.  In all honesty, I'm really happy that they've found something that they really enjoy and can do together.  
The first two batches turned out great, so yesterday we did another two batches.  Now that we're kinda into beer brewing, we decided we needed a title and label.  After quite a bit of brainstorming we came up with a name for their brews: Extra Measure Ales.  "Extra Measure" is a Walcott Family term and inside joke.  The term comes up in conversation, jokes, and prayers. It always makes us smile. Now it's time for it to show up on a beer label.  If you're a close enough bud to one of the bros, maybe you'll be lucky enough to try an Extra Measure Ale.  

  

Peter Pan Please

We still really like pirates over here.  We have a pirate costume.  We know the story of Peter Pan quite well.  We watch Jake and the Neverland Pirates on the Disney Channel.  Peter Pan made a guest appearance on that show, and that was a HUGE deal at our house.  Now we've started making our own pirate items... 

Argh Matey!

Pajama Parties

We've been spending a lot of time in our jammies lately.   Brighton is even lovin' his jammies.  He asks to get them on early - love that!  That is because one of his favorite things to do (and mine too) is to have a "Pajama Party."  Besides the pajamas this usually includes popcorn, a movie, and all of us together just prior to bedtime.  This happens a few times a week.  This is our life right now, and I love it.
