| Rick found a huge mushroom in the yard and the kids wanted to hold it. Gross, haha. |
 |
| The kids were playing outside while Rick and I finished dinner. I think she was trying to get our attention, haha! |
 |
| Garrett drew this picture for me. He said it is me and him and all the hearts are how much he loves me. |
 |
| This was on the back of the picture Garrett drew. I can't believe he sounded that out and wrote it himself! "Der mom" = Dear mom. |
 |
| Sam's Club trip with the kiddos! |
 |
| Big sis helping little sis with her nails. |
 |
| I guess the cereal cabinet didn't get clicked shut (we have the child-proof things on them) and Brenna snuck into a bag of cereal. Her face! |
 |
| Garrett is a little book worm. I still can't believe he is reading and still has a whole year before starting kindergarten! |
 |
| Garrett is going through a phase where he always wants to sleep on the floor in his sleeping bag. It seems so uncomfortable! |
 |
| Brenna loves taking baths in the "bih bah tuh" |
We have been to Smith Lake Park several times now. It's close to home and isn't very busy because it's tucked back in the woods. We love going there!!
 |
| At the park with our friends. Kye, Garrett, Kimbri Grey & Brenna |
 |
| They loved swinging together. Grey & Brenna |
 |
| It's still hot here! The kids enjoy a lot of water play in the backyard.... |
 |
| ...and popsicles. |
 |
| We still hadn't used Kimbri's birthday coupon to Toys R Us so we went and did that one afternoon. She picked out a toys from the dollar section with her $3 coupon and got a free balloon, crown, & giraffe. |
 |
| Garrett has been WAY in to these dry erase learning books. He gets them out almost daily and does them. I love that he loves to learn! |
 |
| Tried a new recipe for oatmeal cream cookies. They turned out SOOO yummy!! |
 |
| Brenna has been obsessed with the potty lately. No, she is not potty trained but she is showing a lot of signs that she's getting ready! |
 |
| A frog they found in the backyard. |
 |
| Kye an Garrett dressed up like Spidermen. |
 |
| Kimbri was the spiderman on the right in this picture. |
 |
| Garrett has loved having some friends that are boys to do boy stuff with, like guns, swords and super hero dress ups! |
 |
| Brenna loves helping mommy cook. |
 |
| Tried another new recipe... baked ziti. Yum! |
 |
| Brenna's poop stance, ha!! |
 |
| Kimbri wrote me a card that said "Hola Umegos". Haha! I thought it was so awesome :) |
 |
| Brenna being a dare devil standing on the block bucket. |
So... taking 3 kids to a craft store isn't easy. I've had to take them a couple of times now because I needed supplies for the quiet books I make for my Etsy shop. The last time I went I had this genius idea that I'd give Kimbri my phone and that she could take pictures of stuff. It worked so good and I'm totally gonna use this again next time, however, Kimbri starts school soon and Garrett will be starting preschool next month so it will definitely get easier going to craft stores soon! Out of hundreds of pics I deleted, I had to keep a few because it was so funny to see all the pictures she took. Garrett's facial expressions were hilarious! Here are a few of them:
 |
| Building forts out by the tree. |
 |
| They tied the rope to the tree and then put the bucket on the rope and then attached the other end to the fence. They get pretty creative playing outside. |
