Videos

I took these videos today. The kids were being so funny!

This face is so sweet

This little one has been a booger lately. Then suddenly on Monday he is his old self again.

A friend of mine called me today to tell me that her youngest, 4, twisted and broke her finger. I told her that was crazy because baby boy was out of character the last couple of weeks.

She told me that she had heard that 4 year olds get a surge of testosterone during their major growth spurt. I looked it up and found the article. It all makes sense now!

Today he has been a jewel. He won't stop loving on me. He told me he loved me probably thirty times. He kissed. He told me I was the best mommy in the world. He did what he was asked and was sweet to his sister.

His affection is making baby girl affectionate too. They were arguing over who could give me the most cuddles.

He made me laugh today because I let them watch Superman for the first time. I said something like I hoped Superman would save me one day. He grabbed my face and said, "Mommy, how many times do I have to tell you...HE IS NOT REAL!"

Bana and Petes visit

This week.

Once of my nieces stayed with us this week. Here are some pictures.

Chad returns from Iraq

We wait!





We had a saga. You will see that the back ground changed. We started at the wrong terminal. We waited through 400 soldiers and he wasn't there. We had to quickly make it to a totally different terminal.






He is home! We made it just in time :)









Breakfast after the airport!

I have a headache

These two sweet pictures were taken years ago. They look sweet and unable to rattle my cage.
WRONG
Baby boy took a pair of scissors to a shirt and made art this week. The whole t-shirt was in pieces. It originally read,"Would this face lie?"
he also: poured out a pattern of green aloe jell on the carpet, filled up a bag of ice and put some in is underwear and wore it around the house, lied, and yelled, and hit sister and many other things that I am not thinking of this second.

Baby girl convinced brother to put ice in his underwear, lied, told brother that she was going to cut him with the scissors, watched as she saw him cut up his shirt and then told mom when he was done, watched him pour aloe on the carpet and the told mom, yelled, and many other things that I am not thinking of at this second.

They are great kids, but are both working on my nerves. We have done plenty of fun things and they are still finding trouble!

Take Me Out to the Ball Game

We took the kids to the ball game today. It was only 97 degrees. Mommy was snap happy.




We (the kids) ate our way through the ball park. We being the kids. We had already eaten our dinner. The kids had to compair tongue colors in the last shot.





Mommy and me


Daddy took us down to meet the players.


Fireworks pictures are the best! I spend the fireworks watching the children.






The video is a snippet of the fire works we saw.
