It has begun

Hunter has already lost his first tooth. He was so excited to have a wiggly tooth and would work on getting it more wiggly. Then one day I noticed that his new tooth was behind the baby tooth. I bribed him to have us pull it out. The bribe worked. He is now the proud owner of a new webkin. I figured it was less money for a webkin than to have the dentist pull it.

The sad life of a bird

A few days ago I was at the back door trying to herd all the kids inside when all of a sudden I heard a huge bang on the window. This poor quail flew right into our window and died a few minutes later. Hunter was so sad he wanted a picture to remember him. Hunter was so brave and helped me dispose of him. R.I.P little bird.

San Fransisco

We had a great day is San Fransisco. The weather was gorgeous! The kids had fun on our ferry ride around Alcatraz and under the Golden Gate Bridge. They loved eating shrimp at Bubba Gump's and riding the merry-go-round on the pier.

Do you love how my kids pose so nicely for the camera? we can never get good pictures of them.

Books

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins is a great read. Just wanted to share.

This is Gross

So we were getting ready to go to a wedding reception Friday night. The kids were filthy so I threw them all in the bath. I pulled Steven out first and he was running around naked as I got the other two out. I proceeded to get Steven dressed and while I was diapering him I noticed some pee on the carpet. I started to wipe it up and then noticed a little bit of poo. I become very suspicious and started wondering where the poo was at. When I stood up I quickly found it! Take a look at the picture.



I was laughing so hard I called Bruce in to see. He was laughing so hard he had to get the camera. Steven was quite proud of himself. (side note: my sense of smell is not so good that is why I couldn't smell it)

Monterey Bay Aquarium

We had a great day in Monterey. We spent the day with my brother Dave & family, my mom and some of our great friends Steve & Heather & their kids. The kid zone was the perfect place for Grace & Steven to play in.

So we went to the Bay Area for our spring break. It was way fun. Cold, but fun. We had a great time visiting with friends and visiting our old stomping grounds. The kids had fun but I think they just loved swimming at the hotel the best. We could have stayed home and done that! At least my kids are easily entertained.

Here are some pictures from Santa Cruz.



Grace is looking for sea shells


Steven is having fun throwing sand around in the wind. Not the smartest idea.


Hunter found some fun wood to use as swords


Bruce wanted all of us to hold hands for this picture, but Steven kept trying to run away.

All Dressed Up and Somewhere to Go

It's been awhile since Grace has dressed up like a princess. She went to a b-day party today and was so excited that she woke up extra early and wanted me to curl her hair. As you can see, she is very happy.

I caved

So I caved and updated my blog with a cute background. I wasn't going to do it, but got bored yesterday and found one that I thought was cute. I feel so crafy. Now I want to start scrapbooking again. Now I'm in trouble!
