This One's For The Girls

I was sorting pictures with my mom the other day and I found this! I was so excited because I loved High School because of my friends. I had the best friends anyone could ever ask for! This was taken our sophmore year at the Sweetheart Ball! Mel was our princess or something I can't remember! She has her crown! It's so fun to find pictures. I just can't believe this was 8 years ago!

Sorry!

I'm sorry the video didn't work. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

Timmy's Sliver

Yesterday was a pretty traumatizing day! Timmy got his first sliver in his foot. It was a pretty good size one too! He would only walk on the heel of his foot crying saying "Mommy hurt" and then he would go over to Matt and say "Daddy hurt". So Matt thought since I always take his slivers out that I would be the best one for the job. Well, everytime I touched it Timmy would get these huge alligator tears and scream "hurt" at the top of his lungs. So amongst the fighting I thought I would never get it out. So I went to get some help from my mom. She gave me a needle and told us that we needed to hold me down and just do it. So Matt held his arms and put his legs between his knees and I was able to hold the foot still while I pulled out the sliver. It was a very intense and tireing 2 minutes. We successfully got it out and showed him his sliver and he was so proud he had his "hurt" on his finger! He was showing it to all of us. It was pretty cute!

This is a video of our trip my mom and I took to New Mexico to visit my Grandma. In New Mexico there is this place called White Sands it's so amazing. We went there for a day trip because it's one of my favorite places to visit. I was able to get this video of Timmy playing in the sand with his feet. He is saying, "Where is it?" "There it is!"

Six Flags

We went to Six Flags on Tuesday. It was the most perfect day for an amuesment park. It was the perfect temperature and hardly anyone was there. The max wait time for a rollercoaster was 10 min. It was a blast! Matt and Jen have come to town for the week and so we met them in St. Louis for the day. Timmy and Adam had a blast playing together and Porter and Summer had their crawling times as well. For about 1 hour Matt and I had the 4 babies and everyone thought that we had 2 sets of twins! It was fun for the hour! For those of you who have twins you are amazing. It was a real treat going with Timmy on the rides and seeing how much fun he was having but he sure got worn out. By the end of the day he just layed down on the pavement and didn't want to get up.

Ricks Birthday

Last Saturday we celebrated Rick's birthday! It was such a fun day we went to Anne's and lounged in her pool for the whole afternoon and then we went to the drive-in. It was a lot of fun! Porter is such a little swimmer and loves the water! Timmy loves the water too. He doesn't like his life jacket at all and when it's off he will jump in!

Boys will be Boys

We have had a blast lately. I thought once I came back from Utah that I would relax and sleep in everyday. Take some breathing time and enjoy summer. Well, I am definatley enjoying summer but relaxing is probably the last thing on my list. We have been having a blast. I have 3 posts for you today. The first is of our adorable boys. I just LOVE being a mom of boys. They are so cute! With it being summer we love to grill and cook out. Then when we clean-up I take the high chair outside and dump all of Porter's leftovers for the dogs to eat. Well, he is EVERYWHERE now and before we knew it he had made it outside and was sharing his leftovers with Merry!

Little Timmy's favorite toy. His bike! He rides it inside and out! Lately he has been doing stunts on it including: jumping his bike and riding off the deck on his bike! He has only rolled a couple of times! It doesn't stop him from coming up with more ideas of what he can do with his bike!
