BETWEEN NATE AND HARLEE.....


So Harlee had a bad week...I won't go into all the details but destroying my room was just the beginning. And I've been thinking what is the deal with this kid?
Is this a phase?
Does she need more attention?
Am I the worst mom on the planet?
Well, I got my answer shortly after she broke the zoom on our camera...
Nate took the camera to work so he could drop it off to get fixed, and he accidently left it at work..Don't worry it didn't get stolen....No, it got drowned in his lunch box that he left in the rain. Has anyone you know ever drowned a camera in a lunch box???
So the answer to my question really is... SHE GETS THAT FROM HER DAD!


This is just an old picture, I thought was cute, on a day we had a lot of fun!

IN A MATTER OF MINUTES

I was feeding the boys, feeling overconfident, thinking that my girls were in my room watching cartoons...15 minutes later I walk into my room to find cereal all over my bed, every color of fingernail polish out and open in my bathroom, several washcloths in various places where she had spilled, all my photos taken out of their frames and scattered throughout my room.

Man did she get it!

Then I made the mistake of walking into her bathroom....

Here, I found my craft paint open and spilled all over the tile, one of my nice towels on the floor where she had tried to clean it up, desitin smeared on the mirror, and every barbie in a cup where she was giving them a bath

She must have done this while I was cleaning the first mess up because there is no possible way she could have done all of this so fast.

Her new nickname "TORNADO"

Fun, Fun, Fun

I thought this part of the trip was scary!




Until Nate made me drive.......




I'm a horrible, HORRIBLE driver!

Double Take



Take one






Take two


















.......

There is no real point to this post other than to get rid of that stupid song on my slideshow!

I just can't stand to hear that song one more time.

Can you say BOY CRAZY?


So the other day Shelbi came home from school and she says,

"I have a boyfriend mom"

These are the words I've dreaded hearing ever since she was born.

Still hoping I say "OH, what's his name?"

(this is where she used to say Nate), but sure enough she says, "Jacob"

So I asked, "Why don't you tell me about him?".

She goes on.. telling me all about this little turd.

At the end of the conversation I asked "Honey does Jacob know he's your boyfriend?".


"NO MOM! HOW EMBARASING!"


Luckily she stomped off before she could see me laughing. I guess Nate doesn't have to lock her up just yet....

Here's a picture of her after ballet. I'm thinking about putting her in a few more things so she doesn't have time to think about boys.

The Little Tease






Trexton always wins the fight for toys and Dax is a pretty good sport about it. I just didn't realize this behavoir of teasing started so early. Trex was putting the spoon in his mouth so Dax would try to get it and then as soon as Dax would try he would take it out and would crack up laughing. He thinks he's so funny.....




So this morning when I was feeding the boys (Dax can climb out of his highchair and Trexton can't yet) I saw Dax go for it and I thought for sure he'll win this time, I better get my camera....



Here we see Dax go for the Fruit Loop......




And here we see Trexton take it back.........


I guess the poor guy's never gonna win.

One day at a time

On Sunday we went to church and a nice sunday drive that may or may not have included shotguns and alot of dove...
On Monday family day (since Nate is working nights) homeade potato soup and hottubbing in the rain...Dax took his first step, litterally only one step and Trexton just stands and dives for it.
On Tuesday errands, errands, errands but I ran into Tiffany and Erin Finch at the mall which was fun, then the girls and I watched Surfs Up and built castles out of blocks so we could knock them down (Harlee's idea)
Tomorrow.....Who know's ?
