7 weeks old

He's getting big fast. He was 7 weeks old on November 18th (so tomorrow he'll be 8 weeks old!) We go to the Dr on Monday for his 2 month check-up and first round of shots :( Bryce's mom is going with me so that I don't get too sad. Ok, I'm sure I'll cry. My poor little man. But she's going to spoil him with loves on Monday. These are some pictures from this past week. Bryce was sick this past Sunday, so I taught Gospel Principles (we're ward missionaries). I had to leave Robert home with Bryce because I can't teach and watch Robert. This is how I found them when I got home. The other one is one night last week. I took the picture to send to my sister when she was having a bad day. The last picture is the cutie all ready to weather the snow!

Bird's in the Dryer Vent

So about 6 months ago we had issues with birds flying in our dryer vent. (Spring time). Bryce THOUGHT he had cleaned out their "small" nest and we recovered the vent opening on the outside of the house (ours had been broken) and no more birds entered the vent. Well, we've been having issues with our dryer taking FOREVER to dry clothes. Right after I had Robert, Bryce & Shelley went to our house one day and cleaned to prepare for my parents arrival. Bryce's mom did laundry and couldn't believe how slow our dryer was and then my mom did some when she was there, so Bryce "cleaned" out the vent tube again. Well, I guess his shop vac didn't get everything. We bought a "new" used dryer from his parents (that was his grandma's) and bryce decided to use different tubing. Well, we found a ONE FOOT blockage in the middle with FIVE bird eggs. SERIOUSLY! No wonder it didn't work. I asked my mom why they never hatched and she said I probably cooked them. I'm surprised they didn't STINK!
