NEVER TO YOUNG

Sorry mom, I had to snag this picture! I LOVE IT!!! This is my dad surfing! Did you catch that, yes, SURFING! You are never too young to try something new! You GO DAD! Sounds like you are having a BLAST at the BEACH! Too bad we can't come hang out and catch a wave or two!

So to everyone out there.... GO TRY Something NEW today!

Flag Football

The other day the kids were out back playing. I was doing dishes in the kitchen, watching them out the window, and was continually going outside to explain to the boys that Alleeda does NOT like to be tackled. I kept hearing the same answer over and over..."but mom that is how your supposed to play football"...that is when I remembered the bag of Flag Football equiptment in the garage, from our days in YM and YW with church, as soon as Kevin got home from work and dinner was over, we tought them how we are going to be playing football at our house when Alleeda wants to play. They had so much fun. It ended up being a game of who can get the most flags off of anyone...ball or no ball. We had a lot of fun...simple pleasures! If you play football with our family a quick warning...Matthew still LOVES to tackle...ball or no ball.

Still unpacking

I should be unpacking more boxes, so I can get the car in the garage...or finishing unpacking my room, as there are half opened boxes of clothes everywhere, but since Kevin hooked up the computer this morning, I have been sitting here for over an hour, checking out all that I have missed. As I was blog surfing I realized, while looking at my sisters blog, that it has been 4 weeks since I last wrote. Man where does the time go? The kids are growing so fast, Alleeda is 4, Matthew just grew a few more inches, Daniel is loving school and Jonathan was 19lbs 9 oz at his 4 month check up (Such a BIG boy). Kevin started his own company two weeks ago, and I am still trying to unpack (ha, ha) the never ending job...with 4 small kids and life happening. It is SO good to be back home. It is so nice to have family so close! So much to talk about and lots of pictures! So I will make a point to sit down tommorow and put in a new post...until then goodnight!

Give me a BITE

So tonight, I ran down to the Forks and grabbed my mom and I a famous Forks Burger. We were at the counter talking, I pulled out my burger and began to eat. Jonathan was still in his carseat playing and making noises, about four bites into my hamburger Jonathan started to cry. I looked over at him and began to talk to him, his eyes stayed directly on the burger, he followed my hand holding the burger, I took another bite and he cried again. My mom said, " he wants a bite" I looked over at Jonathan and moved the burger to his mouth jokingly saying, "do you want a bite" as I got closer he opened his mouth bigger and moved his head forward. I quickly took it away as he was trying to have a bite, and of course he started crying again. It was so funny. I pulled out the rice cereal (that we tried a few nights ago) and he was happy to enjoy dinner too. I have some fun pics that I will post as soon as we move into our house. Right now we are enjoying lots of swimming and smiles at grandmas.

Three HAPPY Months Old

Swim, Swim, Swim

We are so blessed to have such great friends and family! Especially when they let us come SWIM. Daniel has become quite the fish; sharpening up his swimming skills and getting braver each time to try new things. After a weekend full of swimming and sleeping kids, Kevin and I decided we would definatley buy a house with a pool. We would live in it, everyday of the summer, and we LOVE how tired they get when they are done! Nothing better than a warm bath, a sanck and bed after a day in the pool.

Aunt Janet and Jonathan

Janet and Bob let us come swim at their house. We had a wonderful time! The kids loved the pool and warmed up to the dogs! Kevin and I had a great evening, it was nice to talk with you guys! The kids didn't make it one mile out of your house, they were exhausted...thank you! The kids keep asking when they can go back to Aunt Janets...Daniel wants to help you pick weeds :) .....we will be calling!

Fuzzy pic...but the kids had a blast swimming at Aunt Missy's the following night! They thought it was cool to swim with Vanesssa and Stevie! Thanks! Again, Kevin and I thought it was great, as we hopped in the car they were asleep in minutes! We took a break on Sunday, and had a BBQ & swimming with the Parkes monday night. Thanks to Roberts boss, who shared his pool with us! Again the kids loved it! They do love the water!
