Little birthday girl turns 8

Seriously I am not sure how I got here but I'm for sure here.

Pictures are worth a thousand words.

Mostly because I think I'll forget to keep writing on here. But mostly because I am gonna be down for a couple of days and can get this done.
Let's write on the blog.
I have started some picture books to file away for the kids. I need to get the pictures off the digi format and into something we can look at. I want to burn movies for the kids too. But that will have to wait as it is super tedious. And takes longer than making bread. That makes.me think I'll just never do that. Might pay someone to do it for me.
Hello Harper.

Kids played "black men"

Yeah that is what thing two said to the band as he walked through the door tonight. She had dressed herself and the fish (or dish lol) all in black and they started performing a play. They were in a fit of giggles over this move and looking at them selves ......

Moobie just thinks this game is great! Hahahah love this life!

all three a little bit sick

Ok this bug was a nasty one. Headache fever with a nasty nasty cough. And the croupe cough makes dogs perk their ears.
I am just catching it now and pray I get the light version.
Found this on pintrest. I have to admit they weren't as creepy as they are in real life! Kids love making them. I lied the quiet busy house

Had a great labor day weekend

Kinda in love with this picture!

Growing up too fast

Just love these three little people!!

Target tales

Passing by the bathroom fixtures and accessory area in target thing 2 totally picked up and soap dispenser and said when I grow up I want to make my bathrooms look just like a hotel bathroom. Ehhhhhh yeah my bathrooms are the opposite of a hotel' s bathroom. But we has been working on that:) They found this mask on the toy isle as well:)
Hulk wants a hotel bathroom too I guess.

Wrapping up mini darts

This little guy has gone from being nervous in the pool and going in with out a couch to jumping of the side of the pool with out assistance. He has learned the back stroke, freestyle and the breast stroke. This week was when he finally took the plunge off the diving board. Here he is with his little swim buddy Arri.

Last Saturday we were there bright and early so he could compete with his brother and sister in the swim meet. Where e took first place in a 25 meter kick board heat. He was so excited and since he did so well across the pool they allowed him to swim the 25 back stroke. He came in fourth but no other mini darts were competing!

DMV and kinder registration

Today I register the car and my son for kindergarten yeah lots of crazy paper work. And it's all sitting in a folder in my lap. I am number 18 and we are on number nine or so.

Ok so I think The fish has had all his shots but have to go and grab his shot record after is sit here for an hour or so lol

Couple nights ago Braden came down like this......
He said look I'm just like wall-e!! He was kinda excited. For me the excitement ended quite quickly.

New Lens means new pictures of the kids!!

I am addicted to this lens!! It is so much fun to play around in a new way! Spring is almost here and we have been playing with the Band on Saturdays because he is actually home!! We have had the best month of fun time and weekend fun.

This was taken as they kids played at a playdate with Thing 1's friend we all had a blast!

Little brother just got his mission call

We were all around the phone. And gathered to hear those Written words and find out where he was going! He totally is going to serve in Pat's mission!! Guatemala North. Oh we are Sooo thrilled for him and it's totally gotten Patrick all excited to go back and frankly so did I! So many stories and so many things to hear about!
Can't wait to hear all about it!

The flu

This one is pretty intense. I have had the cold and sinus stuff all winter long but this body ache, head pounding, and fever stuff isn't for sissies. After the mucus does down I want to make the kids these....

Sunday breakfast.

The kid had too many eggs for breakfast so now they are not a hot item on the menu. But sausage and hash browns are always welcome!

Kids iPhoneography

The weather has not let us ride:)

We are so excited that soon the weather is gonna clear for the weekend! Hello bike rides!

And Just like that it all changes!!

Honnestly I knew that one day the band would leave the comfort of the car lot but had no clue it would be so FAST!

We are so happy and so excited about the new things he's bring home. And the kids love seeing the fun stuff he gets to work on.
He is using his Spanish everyday again and loving all the adventures the job has to offer.

Having him home on weekends has been so good! Ok this is the first one but it has been great!

Tuesday night's fun night!

Yep that is my big man and The band looks pretty good in his duds too! It was so fun to celebrate the birthday of scouting. More pics to come

I have the most patient dog.

She actually went in the car and road all over town with me! We had a great day just picking up the kids hittin the burrito joint and you know tooling around running all over. Weather got warm today.

Celebrating the birthday:)

Ok sky high jump place is serious fun. We took all three and they jumped for a full hour and they were exhausted after wards! Sooo worth it! I can't believe I am thirty five!! It is so old!! Well not too old but considering ill be 40 soon does seem a bit up there.

Busy busy busy

Shopping with kids. Thing2 got new shoes and can tie them all by herself now. Looking into getting Thing1 lace ups for after school play time so he can practice and I can start leaving the house again now that we are feeling a bit better.

Looking for a bike and trying to get rid of my old one. And thing 1's bike too.
