I have been SUPER BUSY at work. Even though the job is cake...the sleep factor is killing me. I am cutting down to 1 day a week and I am very thankful that they are working with me! It is also impossible to potty train 2 two year olds when you are asleep during the day 3-4 days per week. I whipped this cute cross stitch up in order to stay awake.
My sisters and I went to Logan and created some pretty freaking adorable fairy gardens. I need a bigger planter for next years!!
One morning while Caleb was in school, I took the other 4 with me to pick out my flowers for the year. It was an adventure to say the least. They were good kids. In this picture I was letting them wander while I was searching for something and they found a random wagon and just started loading it up. I didn't stop them. It was to cute.
Lexi has started to enjoy watching movies. Finding Nemo is one of her favorites. This night I introduced her to Sleeping Beauty. She was glued to my lap - and I loved it.
One morning Casey loaded up his bike and I loaded up the jogging stroller and we headed to Mantua. Casey biked around the reservoir twice and I walked it once. These little people just wanted out of the stroller so badly! I could have trimmed 30-45 minutes off of my walk if I wouldn't have let them wander. They were cuties for sure!
This was a sad moment for me. Taylor lost her first tooth!! Rylee was so jealous. She was cracking me up. She said I hurt her feeling because Taylor got a new monster pillow and she didn't get one! It was Taylor's turn to be in the spotlight though. I assisted in getting her tooth pulled out - and once the tears stopped, she was beyond excited for the tooth fairy to come. She's only 5!! I don't think that Caleb lost his first tooth until he was 7.
Caleb had a field trip to the OTT Planetarium at Weber State University. I didn't even know they had a planetarium. It was an interesting trip. My neighbor, Heidi, also was a chaperone. It was nice to know another adult there! I knew another adult to - but that situation was just awkward!
Caleb also participated in his first pinewood derby. It was a dramatic evening. His car was to heavy...Casey ran home to fix it and Caleb thought he wasn't going to be able to race and was in tears. Casey came back after drilling it out and it was still too heavy :( Caleb still got to participate, and won his races. He was excited!
My mom's cat had kittens. We went to visit 3 weeks in a row. They are so cute!!
I came back to this on my wall!
These 3. I think that Alexa is Taylor & Rylee's long lost triplet. She wants to be with them and doing whatever they are doing all of the time.
We were supposed have a little cook out one night with Casey's family, but the weather didn't cooperate. Everyone ended up at our house and it was nice to get together. I had campfire cones all ready to go, but they ended up being 'on the grill cones' instead.
Casey took Luke & Alexa on their first bike ride. Alexa cried and wanted to come home. Luke liked it better than his sister. And yes - he is wearing a purple jacket. He has robots on his jammies though, so it's ok!
This picture is disgusting - but we had applesauce with our dinner, and they found the tops of the applesauce on top of the trash and licked them off. It was such a George Costanza moment that I had to get the camera.
Caleb entered a contest at the bird refuge. Every Elementary school in the area is invited to participate. He didn't win, but his drawing was still awesome! I think that only 2 people in his school were selected.
These 2 had their spring dance recital. They are so cute! They get a little bashful up on stage. I am wondering if they would like to take singing lessons instead next year. I wish that they could just do everything!!!! But - that would require a whole lot of moo-lah.
This girl. I bet 5 nights a week she ends up sleeping in our bed. She's a persistent little gal. Cherish the moments, right? Not your sleep?
Taylor has become quite the smarty pants!! I love this drawing that she made for me one day.
