Citizenship Awards!

Landon and Leah both received Citizenship awards at school. It was a surprise to them, but you can tell on their faces they are pretty excited about it. It's so fun to see them excelling at school. Makes me feel like I might be doing something right.  

Landon went running to the stage when they called his name. He acts like he owns the school:) 

Leah told me the award was for being Mrs. Paramo's best helper in class. I believe that she is the best helper! She's for sure my best helper at home!

Good job you two!

Lacey 9 Months

Lacey is 9 Months. She is waving, dancing, pulling up on everything, says "dadadad" until it is time for bed and then it's a winey "mamama", loves the stairs, is busy and into everything, loves her sibling, but loves her space, wants to feed herself, hates the grass, and is completely loved at our house!

He motivation to keeping going up! They have to learn sometime. 

Good luck getting that from her!

The Stairs!

A tummy sleeper. When I lay her down she automatically goes to her belly. 

Had to get shots at the Dr. It was pretty traumatic! 

Is into everything!

Memory Monday.

The kids love to help in the kitchen. This handy chopper makes them super helpful! 

We have some fun too!

Looks like being the baby has it's perks-shes the first to get a pony!

And loves it!

Waving!

It's still 100+ outside, but that doesn't stop these goofballs from wanting some hot chocolate!

F.H.E Treats

I gave them all control!

Pretty much frosting threw-up on the oreos!

But they were a huge hit with Lulu

And Goose!

She is obsessed with make-up especially her red lipstick!!

It's bad when she gets a hold of Lulu!

This is how my front room looks as of late. Forts are keeping us entertained while we wait for things to cool off!

Lulu is a fan too!

Bunch of Crazies!

Leah had a playdate with her friend Alaya. It's rare that she had little girlfriends over. We had fun doing a tea party, nails, and coloring. 

His Sunday comfies! Yes those are his undies!

The only way to watch TV. 

Go Jedi's!

Landon had his first soccer game of the season. They lost, but he loves to play and has really figured out the game! It fun to watch him play this season!

We brought Ice-cream for treats.  Jer didn't believe me that they wouldn't do so hot in the cooler without being covered in ice. I hate being right all the time:) Although the kids still loved every bite-obviously!!

Memory Monday

Bed time is not only for children, but for Leah's animals too!

Leah is learning how to do her own ponytail. Not too shabby. 

The latest with the laundry basket. 

We built a rocket ship and his animals had to come!

A little obsessed with stickers lately. A bad case of sticker-pox right here. 

That spread to mom. 

Making good use of our Costco boxes!

T.R.O.U.B.L.E

 Getting in the holiday spirit. 

I love finding these little treasure in my bed at night! 

My mom hates when you paint your toenails black, purple, or blue because it looks like you smashed them in a door. With all my running this is what my toes look like, so purple it is to camofluge the smashed toes!

It's still really hot! If I don't get my butt out of bed in the morning I get to sweat to death during my run! 

This little stud has been the best helper in the mornings! He makes his and Leah's sack lunch, makes himself a bowl of cereal, and gets their bikes ready to go. It really helps in the craziness of the morning
rush!

Catching him in the act!

A bunch of Nothing!

I promised Leah I would do my exercise video with her this Saturday. I wasn't thrilled about doing it after running 20 miles, but a promise is a promise!

I love that all my kids wanted to join in -even Miss lulu bean!

I like to say I just sat back and watched, but Leah knows better and would ask "why aren't you doing it mom". I definitely got my exercise in!

She thinks she is so big standing up in her crib. She was in there just yelling till we came in!

These two play so good! She loves to follow goose around and he loves that she chases him back and forth. She also thinks he is hilarious. 

"Yook mom" 

Bunch of cone heads around here. 

Her little legs were too sticky to go down the slide. She really thinks she is just one of the big kids and loved watching all of them at the park. 

Loves soccer, but loves his 5 minutes at the park when he gets done!

This kid and his bubbles. 

Hired my own mexican to paint the fence!! He went to town with his new paint zoom! Worth every penny!!

FOr the life of his he can't figure out the sun visor in the car. This is try number 15. It frustrates him to no end especially since he has one in his work car!!

Love this kids imagination. He spent hours making this space ship! 

Leah helped out, but it had to be Landon's way!

Goose made some "noculers" 

Testing out mommy's glasses. 

Leah wanted to try!

My bed was invaded this morning! 

Miss Busy is too busy to look at the camera!
