GLENPOOL TRIP

If you read my previous post you know Saturday was a busy day, but today we got to just hang out and play on the new swing set Mema and Papa bought the grandkids. This is a mostly picture post so enjoy!

RYAN AND JARRETT ENJOYING A LITTLE SNACK (THEY WOULD BOTH EAT ALL DAY, MUST BE A BOY THING)

THESE TWO GIRLS ARE THE BESTEST OF FRIENDS. IT WAS SO FUN THIS TIME TO WATCH THEM PLAY DOCTOR, RING AROUND THE ROSIES, IN THEIR NEW PLAYHOUSE, ETC. I DON'T RECALL A SINGLE FIGHT WHILE THEY WERE TOGETHER.

YES BREE'S SHOES ARE ON THE WRONG FEET, WE TOLD HER THIS MORE THAN ONCE. HER REPLY "THEY WORK BETTER THIS WAY!"

KIMMY SUE



BREEZY BOO

RYAN GUY

JARE BEAR

An attempt at a group shot, these are as good as they get with four very busy little ones!

We had lots of fun, we go back May 7-11 for a little trip with Scott's family to Branson can't wait!!

JARRETT LOVES HIS NONNY!

We had a fairly eventful day today. This morning Ryan came to play with his cousins at mema's house. Jarrett "clobbered" him with hugs and kisses...Ryan wasn't to impressed and quickly cried fir rescue.

This afternoon we had Ryan's first birthday party. Bree and Kimberly played outside and wore themselves our. Jarrett loved all over my friend Rebecca whom he has not been around since he was a few months old. Funny how you can raise two kids in the same home and they can have such different personalities. Bree would barely let family hold her and Jarrett, well he will go to just about anyone.

I brought Kimmy,Bree, and Jarrett back to Mema's with me after the party so Mema and Crystal could clean up. Jarrett napped and me and the girls did crafts.

This evening Crystal helped me on a tomato plant hunt for my mom. We ended up with 66 plants for $12.00, I'd say we did pretty good. We had Speedy's to go for dinner, I highlighted Crystals hair, played a little American Idol on the WI, and after this little recap of today I know why I feel wornout. Think I'll catch some zzzzz's now! Good Night All!

Wonderful Friday!

We made a quick trip to McDonald's today to grab some lunch. Breeana has been very good about playing in the playplace and I really don't even know she is there. Well for those of you who have played at the WW Mcd's you knows the green way up into the toy. Well I guess she has never ventured to the TOP green ledge before. She got up there and started whining, "Mom I'm stuck." I didn't believe her at first and she started crying and slightly freaking out. So I made my way up to her. I guess there is a larger gap between the top and next to top ledge b/c when I got up there I told her you can climb down your a big girl. Well she tried and her feet wouldn't reach the ledge below her...so in her mind she was stuck...she only needed to let go of the top ledge and drop a whole inch and she would have been on the lower ledge. Anyway that was fun cause I am not by any means a "small" person and climbing between ledges was quite a task.

As for Jarrett. We went to Urgent Care for a horrible cough today (Dr. K closes at noon on Friday's) Luckily we got a decent doctor, but unfortunately for me Jarrett has Croup as I had suspected so I paid my co-pay and didn't find out anything I wasn't already aware of. I took him to confirm my suspicion since we are heading to Glenpool as soon as Scott gets of work. Atleast through all Jarrett's RSV stuff a couple months ago good ole' insurance had to purchase me a nebulizer and Doc K prescribed us lots of refills on Xopenex, b/c doc said breathing treatments will give Jarrett some relief.

This weekend we will be celebrating my nephew Ryan's 1st birthday (April 22nd). That makes me a little sad because if he is 1 Jarrett is only 8 weeks away from being 1. His first year has flown by. Also Bree gets to be a visitor with Kimmy at The Little Gym, so I basically get to test drive gym/dance with her so I can see if she is interested or not before I sign her up here and waste money. Hopefully Scott will be home at a descent hour this evening and we can make it to Glenpool before Mid-Night. Have a great Weekend!!

Trampoline Cuties!!!!

We went out on the trampoline today. I love it because Bree gets to burn stored energy and Jarrett can't get to far, it's a giant bounce playpen for him! I got a few cute pictures of my sweeties.

I got her to sit still and pose for a few seconds, her hair looks a little reddish orange in the sunshine!

They love each other most of the time, Bree clobbered him shortly after. I use clobber because tonight at puggles Bree comes running to Amanda and I crying, I asked what was wrong and she said "Harley clobbered me!" I don't think I have ever used the word in front of her...she tells me Ashley says it?!?!

Isn't he just a little cutie in his little fishin' hat? I just love this little guy to pieces...he is such a little love bug!

She is her Nonny's Grandchild

Breeana jumped on the coffee table a couple nights ago and busted out a few new dance moves for her dad and I. I think she gets it from her Nonny. Sometimes you just gotta dance a jig with or without music!! (She made her own music for this jig)

Couldn't leave my handsome boy out...he's growing way too fast!!!

Me: Did you just knock your brother over?
Bree: Yes just a little, but nicely though.

I think that's her way of saying it was an accident! Gotta love her!

Productive Parenting

I was reading Kelly's blog at www.kellyskornerblog.com today and she mentioned a website so I had to check it out. It is http://www.productiveparenting.com/ you can sign up for free and it will email you an age appropriate activity to do with your child every day. You can put each of your children in and receive an activity for each of them.

I think it will be fun. Breeana is pretty bored around here these days so I could use the activity ideas. So go check it out when you have a chance. It will come in handy for my Sunday School Class as well!!!

JUMP JUMP JUMP

Breeana had a little trampoline I think last year. She jumped and jumped on it. It finally gave way and the straps that hold the mat in place dry rotted. She loved it so much. She has been asking for a new tampoline (she leaves out the r) ever since. When I was in the hospital with Jarrett and mom had to leave to be with Shane and Ashley, Bree spent the day with Lori Davis. She has a big trampoline and Breeana love, love, loved it. I think she made Lori jump for like 3 hours. Anyway, we finally got around to ordering her one last month. Here are some pictures of her enjoying it with Nane and Ash. It is her daddy's job to take on the trampoline, I will have to go out next time they are on it and get some pics of them. The play something called "LION"???

Napping with Daddy!

Easter Outfits and Other Stuff

Easter weekend has been alot of fun. Breeana got to go to two Easter Carnivals yesterday. I guess because she got so so so much candy she has decided it is Trick-or-Treat Eggs. I tried to reason with her but it did no good.

We went to church today as we do every Sunday. I only managed to get these to pictures of the kids when we got home. They were both pretty cranky so they are not great.

We had the Pickards over for dinner on Friday, her is a picture I snapped of the kids playing together. I think we are going to have to buy two more ride-ons so they won't have to fight over one.

Breeana helping me make Chicken and Noodles.

And my ornery little boy who gets into everything!!!

Easter Eggs!!

So Ashley was logged into Blogger on my pc again and I didn't know it. I did an entire Easter Egg post and it posted to her Blog. I will start making sure I am logged in from now on. I really don't want to redo the whole thing, so if you want to see it here is the link...
