Help Please!!

Ok all you girls out there that are so creative and know what colors should go with what....I NEED YOUR HELP!!!
Im hoping at least one of these pictures does it justice because I just don't know if I like this. Please give me some suggestions. Thanks.





I just finished painting the guest room. Ive done alot to it and maybe ive done to much and maybe ive done to many colors.
Here is what ive done thus far....

Spray painted the bed and side table black.
Bought a new brown comforter
Bought this awesome orange pillow which I love
Then I took this pillow to Menards and they matched paint so that is the color on the wall with the bed. Then I got a gray blue(it really is more gray than blue, but when put up against the orange it looks more blue than gray) and now I just don't know if I like the walls. I love the orange wall, but not sure about the other three. Is it to much color with brown, black, orange and grayish blue?? Should I paint the other three walls a different color...like a tan or some off white or leave it?? Opinions would be much appreciated.

I'd say

Last night I was going to put Liam to bed, but he just didn't seem tired yet. Instead I layed him on the floor and layed down infront of him to just watch him play. He was such a happy boy for about 20 minutes which is great considering he has been so fussy anytime you put him down. (found out at his appt. on tuesday that he has a major ear infection in one ear and lots of fluid in the other...poor boy). Sure does explain why for the past 3 weeks he has been crying so much. Opps....I know...bad mom!!



I'd say....he has started to crawl just a bit!!!(or at least he is very close)

Airport??

The other day I was minding my own business and grilling dinner out back when I heard my uncle's plane fly overhead. Ive heard it a million times before so I know what it sounds like....and so I ran inside to grab the boys because I know they would love to wave at him and see him flying over "their" house. We are all outside and we hear the plane getting closer and closer and the boys are so excited. Thats when Elijah say's "mom, look its right there"!! We turn our heads and this is what we saw....








Now mind you we do not have an air strip next to our house:)...but instead they had just harvested the beans that day in the field beside our house and this is where my uncle put his plane down...amazing that he can just about land anywhere.

Of course the boys are about jumping out of their skin....and of course my uncle is so kind to let the boys(including nick...because he is just as excited) have a ride. This is Caden's first time in a plane EVER. Here are some pictures from the rest of the experience and a video at the end. They loved it and hope they get another ride sometime soon!!

Check it out!!!

Yeah tonight was the night...it finally happened, for well over 2 minutes:)



Ok...I see I have posted three times today....I'll stop now!!

Francesville Fall Festival Parade

Elijah and Caden absolutely loved being in the Francesville Fall Festival Parade this past weekend. Danielle Wuethrich and Kathy Wuethrich have an adorable Cafe up town called Five Loaves and they put a float in the parade. The float was so cute and it even won a trophy for being so well done. Here are the boys dressed in their attire of "little men" drinking their "coffee"(pepsi) and eating on some cookies.
Trying to ring a soda pop...Caden got himself two and Elijah after many many attempts...got NONE!! Poor boy.

The boys also got their FIRST taste of an Elephant Ear. When we told Elijah we would get an Elephant Ear his response was "ewww, that is just gross". He then had one and after he was all done said " Is that really an elephants ear"?? Oh boy!!
I'd say Elijah was sure enjoying it even before he knew that it really wasn't elephants ear:)

Liam 6 months old

Can it actually be.....6 months since giving birth???


Here is a video of Liam...excuse my voice in the background:)
