Fat Boy

Little fat boy loves, loves, loves food. One problem he is really kind of lazy and doesn't want to eat it from a spoon because it doesn't get in his mouth quick enough!

Week Two...Daytona Beach

So the second week that we were at my dad's we stayed at a condo in Daytona for about a week. The days were spent body boarding and more body boarding mixed with some sand castle making and the nights were filled with movies and warm showers!! There are to living rooms so it was great the kids could watch whatever they wanted(within reason) and we could watch whatever we wanted!! It was amazing the condo is on a private beach so we were usually alone and we were on the first floor! It was really really fun...if you are like me and refuse to completely grow up and still like to act like a kid. Thanks Melanie for the amazing hook up!!!!

This beautiful picture is the view from my bedroom!! AHHH...a little bit of heaven on earth.

If Brecken could talk I know exactly what he would say..."Hand over the pudding lady!"

Hello SPIKES

Umm, I think Brecken didn't love the beach to hot and sandy, he wasn't sure what to think about the sand other than he hated it! Thank heavens for beach sheets

What a beautiful way to end a day.

My little man...

During that week stay there was a lot of body boarding...and a lot of board rash too, I had board rash for a week after we left, Mark was smart and wore a shirt most of the time so he didn't get it so bad.

These were great body boarding waves big enough with a lot of current or umph to make you fly

Look at those waves...that is my dad out there and he is 5"11 the waves go up to his shoulders...great body boarding waves!!!!

My little brick man...(that is his nickname, not sure why but it is)

You can't tell that she's having fun can you????

MORE Lounging around...

"Here dolphin, dolphin, dolphin!" Much to Jaylee's disappointment her dolphin call didn't work quite as good as expected. Every morning around 7:30 we would watch a little pod of dolphins swim by, it was such a peaceful feeling to wake up and have breakfast pretty much on the beach and hear the waves crashing in onto the sand and then look out and watch the three dolphins swim by honestly I am sure not much beats that! ( in my book at least)

Watch out crazy lifeguard on duty!!!

Ride 'em Cowboy

We got a special visit from great-grandma Darlin'( She is going to kill me for writing great on here!) Honestly look how darn cute she is!

Monkey See....Monkey DO

Jaylee tries to copy everything that Sadie does and says... Although Jaylee isn't always as graceful as her little Aunt. Sometimes it really ticks Sadie off to have a little mirror of everything that she does, but for the most part it is just really fun to watch!!

Gettin Reacquainted

The first week we were here was spent getting reacquainted with everyone...(the girls) And this was actually the first time that my little sisters got to meet Brecken.

A little behind

I am always playing catch up....So these next posts are all from September while I was at my moms house! I didn't realize how behind I was until I looked at someones blog and it said my last update was 5 weeks ago. I can't believe how busy it has been these last few weeks. Mark has been on his rotations. So I stayed with my mom while he was gone. It was really hard not having him there for help, it really help put into perspective how much he helps me with the kids and my sanity. He helps me keep a lid on my craziness. I feel lucky though because all of his rotations locations he has been able to come home on the weekends and our next stop is Orlando and we are going to stay with my dad...I am so glad that we are together again.

Picture Time

"Mommy I want to take a picture" I have to admit she did way better than I anticipated. She loves to take pictures it is hysterical she always says "Oh mommy we should take a picture of that!" I have realized that whenever she wants something or did something bad the sentence begins with oh mommy or just mommy... hummm that is kinda funny.

Dimples

The classic Brecken face.

More Makeup

The girl loves...really loves to wear makeup. Jaylee asked me "Mommy do I look like a little princess?"

Little Blue Eyes

Sometimes I look at him and can't believe that he is mine...honestly he had none of my features, but he is darn cute!

Really?

Wow so Brecken had a screaming fit and screamed for like 2 hours straight...and while Brecken

was screaming Jaylee managed to accomplish quite a bit. My mom has a big candle holder with coffee beans in it and Jaylee was eating them straight by the hand fulls!!! Then she wiped her chapstick fingers all over my little sisters cheerleading uniform. Always beware of quiet children it never adds up to good things!

AwEsOmE

Yes that is my daughter... "Mommy Mommy look at my pretty makeup!" I always wonder where I am while she is writing on her face with markers, or whatever other mischief she gets into.

The Zoo Again

Emma Roo
Little Monkey

Bigger Monkeys

Always the favorite

We went to the Zoo with Terra and her little girl Emma. The girls had so much fun together.

Old Times

It was Terra, Carrie and Janelles birthday so of course we all had to go out and celebrate. It has been really fun being home and getting to catch up with the people we have helped make me who I am. I really miss these girls we have gone through a lot and it is so fun being here seeing there kids and just being home all grown up. And Carrie is getting married sooo soon to her high school sweetheart I can't wait.

Kiddos

My sister got this beanie for Jaylee when she was in Ireland and Jaylee just loves to wear it and so she put it on and said "Mommy take a picture of my hat"

Niabi Zoo

We miss our daddy!!

Ever since she rode the elephant at the fair she has been obsessed with them so when we saw this little guy she said "Oh mommy I need to ride that little guy"

"MOO!! MOO!!" a cow says moo, mommy okay!!

No more Monkeying around

My two little monkeys!!!

Go Cheerleaders!!!

No question about it she is definitely my daughter!!

So we went to my lil sis's game and watched her cheer and Jaylee loved it!!! She was just dancing around saying " GO Cheerleaders!" "Go West!" IN the picture above she is twirling around making her own cheer. Not only was everyone in the audience laughing at her so where all the cheerleaders, She is just picking up all kinds of new talents! Now Jaylee always want us to watch her cheer!

Welcome Fred

So we came home and my mom had a squirrel??? I guess it fell from our tree and now she is trying to help him get big and strong!!!

Whatcha doin???

SO I saw Jaylee under her bike and of course had to ask...So whatcha doing there Jaylee? And she popped up and looked at me a serious as serious could get and said " Oh nothin mom just changing the oil"
