August 1, 2010 - Earrings

I'm pretty sure her favorite birthday gift was the pierced ears. :)

August 2, 2010 - 1 + 4 = 2.5

One can of shaving cream plus four kids equals two and a half hours of laughing-their-heads-off-entertainment. :) And made me the most awesome mom ever!

For the bike race he's pretty sure he'll be in by next week. ;)

The county fair really wore this boy out! Thank goodness he finally fell asleep - I'm pretty sure the entire fair was tired of hearing him scream and whine...

August 7, 2010 - Ice Cream

What can be better on a hot summer night than ice cream cones with Daddy?

August 8, 2010 - Crank it up!

What muscles that boy has!

Carson's first BMX racing number! I'm pretty sure this will be around for a long time! :) He had so much fun practicing and racing he can hardly wait till next time!

August 10, 2010 - Birthday Lunch

Not exactly on her birthday, but we had to go to her fave spot. :) With her fave people. And her brothers and her mom. ;)

August 11, 2010 - Frozen

Blueberries straight from the freezer are as good as ice cream!

August 14, 2010 - The cookin' cowpoke

August 15, 2010 - The view from here

On the couch where I sit every morning. Love it.

August 16, 2010 - To fix what ails you

Or at least cover up your symptoms for awhile....This is what I'm taking so far for what's supposedly allergies.

August 17, 2010 - The Sick Bed

Mommy and Jack snuggling up on the couch. All morning. So obviously I didn't take this picture, but at least I made sure someone did, right? 

August 18, 2010 - What your house may start to look like if no one cleans it.

For days.

July 13, 2010 - Stripes

Guess where we went today...

July 12, 2010 - Unnerwears!

Jack is potty-training himself. Seriously. I just majorly stocked up on diapers and wipes (biggest box of wipes I've ever seen...), and decided we'd try when he turns 3. And then he suddenly is trained. During naps, when we're gone, and all night. I'm so happy I can hardly stand it! :D

July 11, 2010 - Family Day

for the Air Force Reserve families. The kids were in heaven with the food, ice-cream, pop, inflatables, free stuff, face painting, and games. :)

July 10, 2010 - Almost 8

My girl is going to be 8 as soon as July is over and it makes me want to cry! Where is my baby?

July 9, 2010 - Wunchbag

Another sewing project gone sort of bad, but Jack is totally in love with his "wunchbag". He's been sleeping with it and even brought it down when he had a bad dream in the middle of the night!

July 8, 2010 - Daisy

I'm borrowing my brother's zoom lens and may never give it back. :)

June 15, 2010 - Why You Need Your Own Gardens

I love, love, LOVE having fresh flowers in the house, and cutting them from the garden makes me more happy than I can even say! :) (My checkbook stays happy, too!)

June16, 2010 - Crabby Jack

Or not. ;) He loves to make faces right now! And he loved wearing this little art project as a crown!

June 17, 2010 - Summer Reading

The kids always love the summer reading program at the library. And they think they really need to work hard to get it done, but actually we read at least half and hour every day. :) I'm so glad they love books as much as I do!

June 18, 2010 - So I Got More Fabric

But I needed it. Of course. Because how can you not need home decor fabric for $2 a yard?

June 19, 2010 - Holding the Rainbow

And as much as I'd like to take credit for this and not admit that I forgot to take a picture....Daddy took this one! Pretty awesome, Honey! :)

June 20, 2010 - Happy Daddy Day

My kids have the most awesome dad ever. I may be biased.

June 21, 2010 - Chariot Race

I walked outside to this funny sight. Racing up and down the driveway in the double stroller!

June 22, 2010 - Watering

I love having helpers with the flower watering every day!

June 23, 2010 - Diddle Diddle Dumpling...

My son, John. One sock off and one sock on.

I don't know why I suddenly thought of this nursery rhyme! :)

June 24, 2010 - Life Water

The special at Target got me major brownie points!

June 25, 2010 - Picnic in the Kitchen

Okay, so this looks an AWFUL lot like yesterday's pic, but I didn't really think about it! We have lots of picnics in the kitchen! :)

June 26, 2010 - A Tangle of Boys

Aidan and Jackson wrestle on my bed daily. And I know when they get bigger, I'll really miss it!

June 27, 2010 - Blue Angels

We went to the air show for another Father's Day celebration, and all had a great time! I caught myself gasping and holding my breath a lot! ;)

June 28, 2010 - Boys Like Pink

At least this one does! He picked pink cupcakes for his birthday. But they got frosted blue and had fishing poles on them!

June 29, 2010 - Four is Funner

Aidan knows that four is going to be "SO much funner than three!". : ) We love this little man so much, and thought that three was pretty fun, too!

June 30, 2010 - Mommy needs....

...among many other things, Stress Relief! (Especially when it costs less than $4 on clearance! ;) )

July 1, 2010 - Summer Freckles

Love them! :)

July 2, 2010 - Cherries for US

For the first year, we get our cherries instead of the birds! And the chidlets and I ate most of them in one afternoon!
