June 10-17th

Seth and his faces. He can look so serious and then bust up laughing. He also gives an amazing stink eye.

Kade has been so silly recently when I've taken his picture. And yes he still loves angry birds. And that is an angry bird spoon Erin sent him from Tawaiin

We had olives with dinner and Seth was copying Kade and trying to figure out what to do with the olives


Dad is home!! at least for a bit. He brought the boys these awesome beanies and they love them. Seth actually kept his on. They both got knives, and shirts. I love kade's it says Yak Yak Yak with 3 yaks on it. 


Kade's knife!!

And then we had a naked boy in his beanie and I couldn't resist taking a picture of this cute boy. Have I mentioned that he is a very busy boy. Can't believe he is 15 months

 A little wrestling before bed.

So The chickens.... oh they mad me so mad the other day when they found out how to jump the chicken wire and get into my garden. I thought Jesse was kidding when he said they were on the other side....nope not at all! so for a quick fix we stapled chicken wire between the fence and shed and then the she and the house. Later that night we looked out the window and one was on the front porch. Stupid thing found a hole and squeezed through the bottom. Then about 15 minutes we look out and see this! are you kidding me! well i propped her back in and she hasn't tried it again. Those chickens might live now.

My neighbor Judy gave me these beautiful flowers. Peonies I think is what they are called

Happy Father's day! We spent the weekend camping and then the rest of sunday going to church and we all had a 2-3 hour nap. It was great.

Yesterday we got to watch Jesse jump. The boys loved watching the shanook and all the parachuters. It was a beautiful day

I can't believe how big Seth is getting. All his clothes are getting too small!

Last night we were out watering our garden and Kade went and got the watering can and filled it up all by himself and started water his plants. He carried the bucket full of water from the front to the back since i was using the hose. He was so proud of himself, and I was proud of him too. Our  garden is growing which is super exciting. Maybe we will actually get something out of it!

First week of June

Mike had a surprise birthday on Tuesday night so we headed up to join at Chambers Bay Park. I love that place and so do the boys. I wish we lived up the street from it like the Johnson's. I'm kind of jealous. I love these cute boys.
We had to wait on top of the bridge to watch the train. Seth was standing right next to him until the whistle blew.

Cameron wanted to join us but he was stuck in his backyard. I love this little guy he has the best facial expressions.


I bought a kirby...yes i might be crazy. This is john the kirby guy showing the boys how it can become a bubble machine. The boys loved it.

Then it "snowed" it was awesome







This week we hung out with the Nelson's at their house. They have 5 acres and  we took Kade's jeep. The boys were in heaven and the boys were great at sharing their cars. Aiden loved driving the jeep and Kade loved driving the Gator. Cody just liked to ride and well Seth was off doing his own thin... I think in this picture he was dragging the shovel around.
The sun has been out and we have been working hard around the house waiting for Jesse to come home on Tuesday. We can't wait!.I really hope the weather stays nice for the week. It is June!

The last week of May

I have mentioned that I have the best neighbors ever well I do. I'm so thankful for them and all that they do for us. Bliss came over and wanted to hold Gunner. Then she hung around and played games with Kade, what! yes didn't even ask her too but I got some cleaning done. I love 10 year old girls they always want to play with kids. Its the best. another neighbor girl played ball with Seth today while he tried to escape down to the park. Seriously so blessed!

Seth is mastering this look. It is so funny. I love how he is getting an opinion and is trying to talk. Can't understand him but he is trying.

Look at how long his hair is. He still looks so tired in this picture.

My handsome boy dressed for church on memorial day weekend. I love those red pants. That tie was perfect.

Loved how the boys were just chillin on the couch. Not sure why Seth has an eraser.

Love this picture

Kade loves to paint. And do you see that little bear. He took it from Ken and Pam's about a week ago and has not let go of it since. It has been everywhere with us, the gym, store, children's museum, baseball game, church, you name it he Pirate has come along. He also needed a jacket and shoes for Pirate as well. So cute.

Ken has been the boys human climbing gym. Ken and Pam fed us twice last week and they came over here once. We love them so much and are so lucky to have them as neighbors.

Wednesday Kade  had his first dentist appointment.  He did amazing! Notice the bear?

He got to wear cool sunglasses and watch tv that was on the ceiling.

Seth wanting in on the action. Kade's teeth looked great! Yeah! And I'm still amazed he was so good and not shy or scared.

For playgroup on Thursday we went to the Tacoma Children's museum. We parked in the parking structure and the boys loved it. 

Seth could have spent the whole time at the water table area.

Kade loved it too.


Kade also loved peddaling the bike. When you peddled it moved these huge wings above him

A duck pit not a ball pit. Pretty funny

A snack in the sun after all this play.

Friday we headed to the gym with the Nelson's. We got to explore the new stingray exhibit. You get to touch them which is super fun.

The elephant was super close that was fun to see.

Watching the tiger. She was much smaller last time we saw her

Kade was obsessed with the porcupine. He didn't want to leave so i told him we would take a picture and that seemed to be ok with him. They also got these panda masks. I love how he put it on.

Even the polar bear was out moving.


They have this little park at the zoo and Kade loved spinning in it. 

Until it went a little too fast then he got scared. but later got back on

Seth open your eyes!

See back on! Dad better be ready to swing this boy when he gets home.

Seth likes the slide

We ended our zoo time with a ride on the carousel. Scary picture i know

These boys are growing up so fast. After the zoo we went to McDonalds with the Nelson's and let the boys play a little bit more and then we headed off to costco to get some shopping done before dad comes home. Our supply is back up.
