Awesome April

Caleb & Casey went to help Brad and Mona in Dove Creek one day.  This photo happened.  What a cutie.

Here is my awesome Grandma with Luke & Alexa.  Can you believe she is almost 85 and still up for shopping & temple square??  I only wish I will be half as fabulous as her in my 80's!

Taylor loves Shadow.  He has been the best cat ever. 

This picture of Rylee is hilarious. She can be such a cheese ball!

Here are me & my little loves at my mom's Frozen party!

Caleb is so creative.  He made 'habitats' out of play-doh one day for these animals.  I wish I could remember the names of all of them!!

Growing up!!

 Rylee having some chill time with Lexi.

Both of these kiddos have tummy time down!

I won these GORGEOUS flowers on a facebook drawing!  I was so happy that I won.  The arrangement was much bigger than I thought it was going to be.  I went to the store to pick them up & Caleb said, "Those are so pretty!  I wish that I could give them to Ashley."

This little beauty has the sweetest little sleeping poses.  What a doll!

Rock and Roll hand - check.  Worm - check.  All boy - check!

Bath time is the cutest time ever.  Well - sleeping time is pretty dang cute also.

Dinosaur Park

My sister-in-law, Tamara, let me in on a fabulous secret.  Ogden offers a lot of FREE things to do during the summer!  One Saturday in June they had free admission to the dinosaur park.

Caleb's poses lately crack me up!

My little girls - growing right up!!

Luke napped for quite a bit of the afternoon.  He was happy as could be when he woke up.

Alex didn't nap all day, but she was still pretty chill.

I think that the kids favorite part of the park was digging in the sand for dinosaur fossils.

9 months!!

My babies are 9 months old!! 

 Luke's stats are:

Weight - 18.3 lbs - 18th percentile

Height - 27.5 inches - 23rd percentile

Head Circ - 45.4 - 51st percentile

This little boy is hilarious.  He really is a good baby, but when he is hungry or tired he will not go unheard!  He makes the cutest little pucker/sucking face when he is starving or when he is all snuggled up next to me falling asleep.  I love it.  He has 2 teeth on the bottom & 1 of his front teeth have popped through on the top.

 Alexa's stats are:

Weight - 15.6 lbs - 4th percentile

Height - 28 inches - 63rd percentile

Head Circ - 43.2 - 26th percentile

My little girl is so dainty and sweet.  The pediatrician thinks that she might have some post traumatic stress from getting stuck with needles when she had RSV in May.  She is pretty serious most of the time, but here sweet smile could melt any body's heart.  She LOVES Caleb.  He can always make her laugh.  She has started to give me sloppy, mouth wide open, kisses.  She has 2 teeth on the bottom.

 Both of these cutie pies are FINALLY sleeping through the night. 

The both are champion eaters!  We have started with baby snacks, bananas and yogurts.  I plan on adding some cooked carrots & sweet potatoes pretty soon.

They can both twist their tongues - true talent at it's finest.

They are army crawling EVERYWHERE.  I hate that I have to sweep everyday - tee hee.

I love my Lukester Pookster & my Little Lexi.  I am so glad that they are mine!!

Pool Day!

I don't think that I can say it enough....I love successful family outings!!!  Casey has Monday's off of work so it's kind of nice to go & play once in a while because places aren't quite as crowded. We went to the aquatic center in North Ogden.  Mona, Ashley, Eva and Blake all came and played with us too!  The water slide was a HUGE hit!  Blake, Caleb, Taylor & Eva couldn't get enough of it.  Rylee didn't want to try.  I thought that Rylee was going to be my adventurous little twin, but it's Taylor all the way.  I pegged that one wrong.  Fist one of many I suppose.

Caleb has learned to love the water.  He was just like a little fish.  They had a smaller tube slide for younger kids & he was a maniac going down that thing so much!  My girls were content most of the time to just play in the shallow part with their squirt guns.  The babies enjoyed their first time at the pool too!

 Here are a few more pictures.  Blake LOVES the water.  The girls loved the Doritos that I packed for lunch.  I'm happy that Casey is a hands on dad.  I couldn't handle this group if he wasn't.  Ashley was exhausted at the end of the day.  She hauled Eva up the slide stairs probably 20 times.  Legs of steel I tell ya!

My March Madness

I can't believe it's July 1st and I'm just posting my March randoms.  I'm a little behind.  You would think I was busy or something. 

 

These two can be so dang cute together!!  How do you tell them apart in this picture?  Check their toenails of course!!

When Luke & Alexa were just over 5 months old I had to put them into separate cribs.  They were kicking the crap out of each other!  The will now roll to the side where they can get the closest to each other & just laugh at each other.  It's adorable.

The moon was GORGEOUS one night!  So - I snapped a photo.  I may frame it for Halloween or something.  I love it.

Luke's 1st faux hawk.

Caleb had crazy hair day at school.  He was so excited!!  He loved his colorful, spikey new do.

How cute is this hand holding?!?!

My mom hosted a Frozen party.  It was adorable.  The crazy woman even cut cheese slices into little snowflakes.  We had snowman noses for a snack and bottled melted snow for a beverage!  It was fun.  My kids got lucky and got to keep the balloons.

Luke the rock star!  Such a cute baby boy!!!!

 Seriously - the highlight of my year so far.  The blonde afro day.  The girls looked so cute with their hair up in curlers....the next day was a different story.  I took the curlers out of Rylee's hair first & she HATED it!  I told her to smile for the camera and she said, "No.  I don't like it!"  Taylor didn't even know what to think.  They cracked me up every time I looked at them that day.  Sorry little ladies!!
