London turns one

Trust me I have one hundred million pictures of her shoving cake in her mouth but this is just to give you the jest of it. She had a ton of fun! Holy crap I can't believe my baby girl is one!Oh and there was a fairy on top of her cake, it wasn't a boy cake!=)

Hi again

So we have been sooo busy lately! My gorgeous daughter turned one! Ayden is in preschool and soccer! He is riding his bike with no training wheels and is growing up way to fast! Here are a few pictures and i will do better tomorrow.

hey It's been a while!

Nothing new is really going on, it has been raining like crazy here and Ayden wants to be outside all of the time! Which is great except... it has been raining! So our yard has been postponed! London is cutting teeth which seems harder for her than it was for Ayden but hey she wanted to do it the hard way, laterals first! Oh yes our little vampire is a perfect match for Edward and Bella's daughter, too bad they are not casting! She is crawling all over the place and pulling herself up on all the furniture! She even lets go with one hand! I think she is just trying to keep up with Ayden! I can't believe she will be 9 months in a couple of days!Ayden is the biggest BOY you will ever meet! he is crazy! he loves Gijoes, baseball, riding his bike, throwing balls, driving his tractor, and just running around pretending he is Dash! He says the funniest stuff everyday! Today at lunch with our friends he tells Kenzie their 4 year old that he is going to marry her! Ayden: I am going to marry you when I get older. Kenzie: me! Really! You can only marry one girl and you want it to be me!? Ayden: Yep. Are you excited?! Kenzie:oh yes!thank you Ayden! Ayden: Then we can go places together and sleep over! Kenzie: Yeah and we get to get in the shower together! This is where I interrupted! umm guys...mark interrupts me...You are both way too young to be talking like this, you cannot shower or go to the bath room together!( the kids look at him like duh we know this! This is when we are older!they also said this!) Although it sounded really dirty, it was seriously innocent and really funny! If ya'll could have seen their faces it was super hard not to bust up laughing! Anyway more updates to follow!

Dang Facebook

My friends got me doing facebook so i have been putting pictures on there b/c they upload faster! anyway AYDEN TURNED 3!We had a great party and I attempted the cake, it was overall so much fun he loved every second of it and thanks so much for the gifts he loves them all!

Ayden cooks Dinner!

- Don't worry the stove is not on and the pot is not hot!-

Ayden has been a little ball of energy today holy cow!We have been on two bike rides, one to the park ,played at the park, gotten his haircut, played on his airplane, you name it we did it, we were having a blast today! But when we had to go in so I could cook dinner, I was thinking Ayden was going to pitch a fit,but instead Ayden said "I want to help you ,so after we make it I can go ride my bike!"I was super excited he wanted to be in the kitchen with me instead of me getting him something every five seconds while he watched tv or played while I cooked. Let me tell you he was amazing! he was SO into it! He pour all of the ingredients together in the Kitchen aid, helped me put the cheese in the Cuisinart to shred it, chopped everything with me and loved watching the Kitchen Aid mix it together! We then baked it and made rice! I had never made poppy seed chicken before but it was so easy even an almost 3 year old could do it! It turned out to be so good, so Mark rewarded Ayden by taking him out and teaching him how to ride a real bike with training wheels( one we had given to us from a kid down the street,I didn't think we would actually use it for a long time, but hey it came in handy, thanks Jones fam.)Anyway Ayden is totally into learning new things and he is picking this up great! Sorry if it sounds like I am bragging about my kid, I am just really proud of him and his behavior today!

Today Jessica and I took the kids to the park in CDA and it was so windy we decided to call it a day early. But, Ayden had his big wheel in the trunk so we went over to Jessica's and let the boys ride a round for a little while. Needless to say it was entertaining the boys love to say" I am going to beat you!, I am going to win!, I was first!, I beat you!, no you didn't!, Wait for me !"Every phrase was said by both boys, I guess you can say they hang out enough to say the exact same phrases!What can I say? boys will be boys!

More sun!

Transformer undies AWESOME!

How do you and your friends spend a friday night? Bathing kids? We Did! It all started when Reese (my bf's daughter) said "eww my hair is greasy!" I said "I have a tub..." "Is it big?" "I think so, you come see..." "oh yeah! Do you have bubbles?" and that is how it began, then the boys saw her and they wanted a turn! Needless to say all the kids were clean before our adult night began! So here are some pictures of that glorious event. This week Jessica (my sis-in-law) and I went to the mall She has all these coupons and is the bomb, me I have an addiction to gymboree . Anyway I love the little playarea at the mall the kids get to run around and we can bribe them the whole time we shop"you won't get to go to the tree and play if you don't listen! ... "you better stay close or you won't get to ride the motorcycle"... HAHAHA a mother's dream!
