Come back soon!!!

So, Lisa has been gone to Utah for a day and a half now and I am at home watching Ella and Cavin. It has been fun and the children are behaving very well for a challenged man like me. Multi-tasking is not really a strength of mine when it comes to helping one crying child while the other one is getting into things he shouldn't be getting into. But we are surviving and wanted to share a few pictures of what's going on at the house.
We went to the temple, which was fun. Ella wouldn't go unless she put on a dress and then she desperately wanted to go in and I had to tell her that she needed to wait. Of course tears followed that statement and I had to make it up to her with 'skinny cows'. Ice cream makes everything better.
Ella and Cavin play really well together. She is starting to share with her little brother and he likes being with her. Lots of times he starts to giggle when Ella plays with him. Cavin in return is not listening very well as he knows exactly when to not do something but has a smile on his face when I tell him no.
So, life is quiet here and we miss mom. Please come home soon so we can play all together again. Lisa, below are a couple of pictures so you don't forget what the kids look like. We love and miss you!
C-Dog, Ella-Mator and Ragmuffin!
P.S. Excuse the hair!

Glad you are surviving Ragnar. It's fun that you posted. Nolan won't go near our blog so I will have to let him know even you did it:-) Hope the rest of your weekend still goes well. That's cute Cavin and Ella are playing together so well.

What an awesome Daddy!!! I love that you mentioned the hair- that is always Matt's worry since he doesn't have a clue how to do our children's hair!!
