Our Little Friends

Aiden, Family Fun, Pictures
Aiden and I found something on our way in this morning, when it rains they come out, and it rained lastnight, we counted at least 7 of these cute little snails, or if you ask Aiden they're "nails," he is having a hard time putting the "S" at the beginning.

Enrichment and cookie recipe

Baby Joey, Church, Pictures
We had a wonderful night, I'm really glad I made it. My arms were full of baby, so I didn't get any photo's, so I'll have to find me a substitute mama so that I can use my hands and get these photo's. I made some cookies, I think they were a hit, I took at least 3 dozen and came home with an empty plate. I'm starting to really enjoy baking, now if I could only swing that over to cooking, LOL! Anyone know any yummy cooking shows I can DVR for my quiet time? Kid appropriate, yet kid boring, LOL! That's the only way to get Aiden to take a nap, to watch something that I enjoy but is boring for him. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chocolate Drizzle Cookies ~2 German…

To Do’s and QOTD

Aiden, Baby Joey, Church, Family Fun, Me, Michael
Quote Of The Day (QOTD), well actually yesterday. Yesterday I was looking at flowers with my boys. Whenever we do this Michael asks what this or that is. He pointed to some small flowers that I don't know, that looked very wild. M~ "What kind are these?" I said, "those are wild flowers." Then we went on looking about at the different flowers. Out of the blue, M~ "Are wild flowers for wild people?" Me, giggling like mad cause I know at least a few people heard him, and cause it was SO cute, I gave him a huge hug, and said, "No, Wild Flowers just means that they're a kind of flower that grows by itself in nature or the wild." M~ "Ooooh!" Sometimes it's easy to forget that…

Summer School

Michael
So here I was counting down, 12 days of school, until I didn't have to haul Aiden to and from the car, several times a day, every day, at least for a few months, and when we could tackle some fun family projects while we're all home, and then it's sprung on me. Michael requires Summer School... :( His grades are OK, but his social grades aren't, and I guess that was reason enough for the school to make this executive decision about my child... So now he's going to school the whole month of June. 20 more days... Same hours accept they let out a half hour early every day... In some ways I'm very irritated, it feels very sprung on me, I was making plans for in two…

Kevin and I
Of wedded bliss, LOL!  OK, it hasn't always been blissful, but it's been awesome. :)  I love my Kev. :D  We've been through a lot, but it's been fun getting through it together.  I'm so glad I married my best friend. BTW, that's not flowers it's a pinata's arm...

Happy Mothers Day!

Me
We had a nice day today. All of the boys got all dressed up in outfits that were different, LOL! Church was nice though I missed getting my Mothers Day Carnation because I was in the Mothers Room with Joey, Hahaha! I found it kinda ironic, at least it wasn't chocolate. :) I talked to my little brother who's serving a Mission in Guatemala today, it's always so awesome to hear his voice. He's got just 4 months left before he comes home now. We are his "halfway home" point, so maybe he'll get a layover here and we can see him shortly, if we're not already waiting for him there in Utah. He's having a very positive experience there, he and his companion have been a little under the…
