Chocolate Lover

Last night we were making chocolate cupcakes...Sammie was my helper of course. And what is a 3 year old's job...other than stirring? You got it-licking anything that has chocolate on it. Apparently she is a chocolate lover! It got ALL over her face, hands, and somehow the back of her arm? No idea. She was a little crazy after all of the yummy goodness and ran around the back yard for a good hour!

Hot Hot Hotties

Yesterday it got pretty hot here...I don't know maybe 102? Ugh. So it was time to suit up...swimsuit up that is and get in the pool. Other than looking stinkin cute in his swimsuit Cole loved his little splash pool. Samantha even "allowed" him to have some toys...that's going to be a lifelong battle I think. Samantha enjoyed the pool too. It's going to be a fun summer.
Come on over friends...the pools are out:)
Anything that helps my children nap for 2 plus hours in ok in my book!!!



What is this awesome stuff?

My sister is sharing toys! Woo hoo!

Splash splash!


Here, have some more water bro.

Sammie splashing around.


Her new trick-bounce off the side into the water.


This is very out of character for her!!!


Trying to clean up.

I forgot...

I forgot to post this picture that my daughter took with Susan's camera....it's her room. S

ee, I do let my kids get messy!!! Here's the proof. Just looking at this picture makes me a little nauseated but apparently it's good for her development--or something!

Cinco de Mayo

So we invited the girlies over for Cinco de Mayo and enjoyed the day. They were all dressed in their tie dye creations and looked cute. Of course Cole was sleeping when the pictures were being taken-sorry buddy!

It took the girls a good 30 minutes to get into their groove with eachother but once they found their stride they were good to go. They talked all through lunch (hilarious), made pretend birthday cakes for all of us and just played their little hearts out. It was great fun to watch them.

Thanks for coming over girls.

Maggie, Sammie, Maura and Ana.

Sille faces.

Peek-a-boo Maggie!

Counting their steps during Mr. Fox.

Love all love to hold hands.

Lunchtime-it was pb&j for the girls...excpet Sammie who had to have ham and cheese!

Mrs. Fox!!! Watch out!

Go Cole Go

Cole has finally discoverd the tile. And now that he has, we can't keep him off of it! He is everywhere. One minute he is by the door, then-under the table, look away--look back-he's at the back door! I will say with confidence that boys are definately a lot more energy than girls.


Traveling around the house...with his remote!

Trying to break out.

Comin atcha!
