summer weather is here

that means it is swimsuit time, for the kids :)



Hope you stayed cool in the heat

mothers day

I love being a mom. Yes there are days that I wonder how I got to this point in my life where my days are full of laundry, cleaning house, prepare meals, breaking up arguments, saying no whining please for about the hundredth time and so many other things to wake up and do it again. But the little moments really mean the world to me! Like when Little Miss looks up at me and says "I love you momma" or when little Mister makes me a picture that says I love mom's happy heart! I love them so much and I can' imagine my life without them.
One of my favorite parts of mother days this year was watching them play with daddy. Little miss thought it was so funny when daddy jumped over her head. Sorry the actions shots are not so great defiantly something to work on :) but you get the idea when you look at their smiles!

Family party

We were able to celebrate Little Misses birthday a little at home. She perked right up when it came time to open presents. She was so excited to get a new doll from her bubby. As she opened clothes from mom and dad she just kept saying "cute". Last she got a sit and spin just like her cousin me me. I however think her favorite part was eating "cake cake" with daddy.


We also had a party for her and her friends on Saturday. I will post more on that later.

TWO!!!

Today Little Miss you turn two! You have added so much adventure, joy and laughter to our lives!!! you have grown up from that little baby at the hospital. Even then you let me put pretties in your hair :)

You barley fit in your car seat on the ride home. As a baby you were either peacfull or loud there seemed to be no in-between :)

With 4 sweet teeth thru you had fun eating your first taste of cupcakes on your first birthday

your smile lights up my day

So full of wonder and life. We are so blessed to have you in our family!!!



We couldn't wait to celebrate little Misses birthday but it looks like it is going to have to wait. She is very sick with croup but should be feeling better in a few days. Happy Birthday Baby sorry you are so sick!

tulip fields

At the end of april we went to the tulip fields with some friends and had a fun day. It was really hot and the kids didn't last long looking at the flowers. They enjoyed playing in a little house and a cute horse tire swing. I had hoped for some great pictures but spent most my time chasing LIttle Miss or comforting Little Mister that it was really ok to walk thru the flowers. My two favorite things I over heard that day were both things Little Mister said to his friend miss M. " M we are going to be friends forever" and then as we were walking in they were holding hands and he turns to her and says" M it is just like we are married" . As shocked as I was and not wanting his life to go to fast He couldn't of said it to any one sweeter then miss m. Here is pictures from our day. Some how I missed getting a picture of sweet miss m :( like I said most the day was chasing little ones around and not lots of pictures.

Little Miss's friend Lulu in a cute dress her mom made from pillow cases. yes you read correctly my very talented friend made a dress from pillow cases!

q and r

So this goes all the way back to february time but I realized I have not kept up with our post. THe week we had the letter Q we talked about mom being a queen for the day but that didn't go over so well :)
SO instead we played the quiet game a lot...

We also made rubbings of quaters


The letter R was on of my favorite weeks
Day one was red R with ribbons

The next day was Rain clouds and painting rainbows


Wednesday was robot day


The next day we painted rock with some friends and heard the story about the wise man who built his house upon the rock

And last we had Racing day, we made checkered flags and race tracks, played with our race cars and ran around tons.


I will try to post more later if you can believe it we are already on the letter Z this week. I will also porst some pictures from our wonderful family vacation soon.
