Cooper

We dog sat for a week.  It was so much fun!  Cooper is a sweet little dog and we loved having him.  The kids really adored him. They insisted on having slumber parties in the living room every night so they could all sleep together. 

Kate's Disney Day

My mom took Kate to Disneyland for her birthday celebration. They decided to go a little early before it gets too hot and too crowded.  She had so much fun! Yeah for birthdays, grandmas and Disneyland. Life doesn't get much better than that!

After going into almost every gift shop in the park and a lot of deliberation this is what she picked out for her birthday gift.

Boys and Girls

The boys had their father and son camp out last weekend.  They get so excited to go camping with Steve.  They climbed tress, played baseball, played with sticks, drank soda, roasted marshmallows and got dirty!

While the boys were gone us girls had a little party of our own.  We went to the Americana and enjoyed some Cheesecake Factory while watching the fountain show.  Then we shopped.  Then we painted our nails.  Then we watched teen beach movie and had a slumber party in my bed.  It was fun! I love girl time with my girls. 

Mother's Day

I love Mother's Day.  How can I not? It might be my favorite holiday of the year :)  I get VIP treatment all day long. The kids make me beautiful crafts and jewelry and say the sweetest things.  Steve cooks for me.   Seriously,  best day ever!   I love being a mom.  It brings me joy beyond measure.  My kids teach me and entertain me and love me and strengthen me and give purpose to my life.  I am so grateful to be a mom.  I am also so grateful to be in the parenting business with Steve.  He is the best father and husband!  I am a better mom because I have him by my side. 

Disneyland Again

We went to Disneyland. Again. It was crowded and crazy but we had fun.

These monsters are a real nightmare in line.

Little Rachel was so sleepy.

Steve is a machine.  Pushing two in the stroller with one on his back!

She loved the parade.

Butterflies

We bought some caterpillars. They turned into chrysalis's.

Then they turned into butterflies!

Fun

The weather is so nice! We have been having lots of fun playing with water and friends.

After a hard day of play he zonked out on the couch still in his swimsuit.

Baseball

This year Kate, Luke and Jason are all playing baseball and the best part is they are on the same team. They are having so much fun!

Whenever they have a game Wesley puts on his cleats and his hat and glove and cheers from the bleachers wearing his baseball gear.

Rachel loves wearing the helmet and holding the bat.

They all played so well.  They each really improved this season.  They all got trophies and they are very proud of themselves!
