Random Antics of the Mitchells

Well, it's been a fun couple of weeks. For Memorial Day we did a lot of projects around the house and worked in the yard a little bit. We're pretty sure that we are out of any danger as far as frost goes, so we could actually justify putting in the work. I'm excited that my garden is growing so well. I will post some pictures of it in the next few days. Siobhan has fun going outside and helping me water it and checking on the progress. It's funny, she thinks that everything we've planted is peas. We did add some Lilies to the front and back yards so those will be fun to see bloom. And the Iris bulbs that I planted last year are going to be blooming soon as well. We went to Hard Rock for lunch on Memorial Day so here are some pics.

Siobhan is really starting to become a wonderful big sister to Audrey and Audrey is really starting to enjoy playing with Siobhan. It's really fun to see. They love each other so much that pretty much every morning we find Siobhan in the crib with Audrey and every night they stay up late 'talking' to each other. This morning we woke up to Siobhan in the crib attempting to change Audrey's poopy diaper. Well, you can all imagine the mess. It was gross. But we know that Siobhan was really just trying to be helpful so she didn't get into too much trouble. We did have to have a long talk with her this evening before she went to bed because we don't want her in the crib in the first place.

Siobhan has a new favorite TV show. It's so random. I've started watching Deadliest Catch on the Discovery channel and it is so interesting. But what's weirder is that Siobhan loves it. I'm not totally sure why. But every time I'm surfing through the channels she always askes if it's on. Carson thinks that I'm so weird for watching it, but I know he gets into it too. The picture is of Siobhan pretending to be a crab and the video is of her doing her crab walk. She just learned how to do it so she forgets to walk her hands. She's so goofy! The second video is her explaining how a crab boat works. After they catch the crabs, they measure them and through them down a hole to the tank in the bottom of the boat. She thinks it's the garbage.

On Memorial Day, after lunch, Carson noticed that I was looking a little bit down. Which I was, I'm not going to lie. So he decided that I needed some time away from the family that was not dance related. He told me to go to a movie while the girls were napping. It was so wonderful of him to do that. It was exactly what I needed. I saw the new 'Indy' movie and I loved it! Loved it, loved it, loved it!

On another note, we had auditions this past Saturday for my dance company. We had a great turn out and it looks like we're going to double our number with some really great dancers. I'm so excited for what we have in the works for the coming season!
