I love it when they play nicely together! It's fun to see the fun things they come up with to do!

Daddy's Little Helper

We've mowed the lawn before when Caedmon had to
hold onto the mower and walk with us.
This was a nicer option and he came up with all on his own.

Homegrown Strawberries

Corey planted a couple strawberry plants last year and they've spread like crazy this year! They produced quite a few strawberries - big and sweet ones! The kids really enjoyed picking them in our own back yard!

Height/Weight Stats

As of June 14th,

Carys: 34 inches tall
25 lbs. 8oz.

Caedmon: 44 1/4 inches tall
40 lbs. 4 oz.


Carys is my petite little girl and Caedmon is once again off the charts for his height.

Saturday with Friends

We spent a lovely Saturday hanging out with friends, eating, egg hunting, egg dying, making egg rice krispie treats and dancing to a Wii game. The kids had a blast, as did their mama!:)

And they're off!






Carys is rehiding the eggs she found.



Elie










Carys was more into crushing the egg than dying it... everyone kept telling her to eat it (she eats hard boiled eggs often), but she gave her brother quite the look and then proceeded to mash it
and dump it.






I believe this was "Who Let the Dogs Out." The kids were really into dancing...okay, so we mothers had just as much fun.:)







Good times had by all!!!

Piggy Back Rides

We were getting ready for bed and got distracted..

.so yes, Carys is diaperless and Caedmon pantless.

Spring Day at the Park

Love this time of year and getting back to the park again!

Ben came up to visit and the really good pics are one he took.:)

Getting Dressed

Finger Painting

I don't get the paint out as often as I should...the mess is a little much for me. And although they had fun, they felt the need to continually wipe off their hands throughout their projects...perhaps I've passed on my need for clean.

Notice the face. Yikes!

Love of Books

I love finding my children like this...
I'm usually a little jealous that I'm not doing the same!:)

Helping with Supper

Tearing lettuce for salad...
and enjoying it!:)

In Loving Honor of Miss Kaylee Hope

My cousin and his family lost a dauther/sister in utero this past week. Our hearts go out to them and we wanted to send our love in a tangible way, so we made a blanket. Purple is Kaylee's color and we hope that this blanket will bring smiles and sweet memories to those who snuggle with it for years to come.

We love you Joey, Jamie, Kiera and Carson!

(Caedmon wanted to know if we were going to go to Kiera and Carson's house to give them the blanket. I wish we could!)

Skating Socks

Caedmon was taking his time getting dressed this morning
(and just about every morning!)
when he came out and declared these his "skating socks."

The best part was the skating attire!!!:)

Auntie Heather's Visit

We always have some much fun when Heather comes to town! Heather and I were able to get away for a whole day of shopping kid-free! But the kids are pretty convinced that the reason for her trip up is them!:) I try not to leave all the entertaining to her, but my children make it clear they don't want me! And I admit that having the focus shifted off me for awhile is awful nice!
