Fun times with GH

GH likes to pretend that he is jumping on the trampoline:)
Do you ever get the feeling like someone is watching your every move?

Now how do I put on these shoes?

I almost have it.

It looks right. But, it feels like I forgot something.

Smashed Potato Time

This is a picture of GH after dinner last night. GH loves mashed potatoes. But he probably loves mashing potatos all over his face more than actually eatting the mashed potatos. Several times during the meal Rooster would come over to his side of the table with a napkin. She would happily clean him up as he giggled. Before she could sit back down, he would smile and smash the potatoes on his face again. GH giggled at Rooster and she laughed as she walked back over to him to clean him up again:)

Happy Birthday Amy

I kind of lost him at the end;)

Happy Birthday Aimes!!!

When a Rooster needs more school

Rooster wanted to go to school today. When I told her it was Saturday and there was no school. She insisted again that she needed to go to school. So I told her that she couldn't go to school today but that we could have home school. She was very excited and used the term numerous times. So now what I called "activities" is now classified under "home school". I guess we will home school in the afternoon/evenings and on the weekends;) I hope she doesn't insist on a syllabus. I have so many supplies etc for our "home school" that I needed additional area to work with. This is a picture of our new area. It's small but I don't need a huge area. I used a coffee table and some small chairs for a seating area. And I placed the circle time rug in the corner.

Our life in sketches

I love "our life in sketches".....I always look so thin:)

Cute and disgusting at the same time

GH and Big Dog raided the fridge while I blogged this afternoon. He seems pretty happy with what he found.

Rooster thinks chopsticks

make great drumsticks.

Linny uses a hang glider

I had no idea that the Wonderpets were so resourceful. I was lucky enough to catch this picture of Linny using a clothes hanger as a hang glider.

Random stuff from this week

We went to a "magic show" at the library. It didn't end well for us. I think there were far too many people shoved into a small area. I also think it's fair to say that Rooster and I were equally disappointed that the magician/illusionist didn't dress in traditional attire. Who wants to see a magician wearing a red a black striped shirt? Super lame!!!
We are still adjusting to "Trouble".

The Parrot family came and visited. (Do you like that code name?) Princess H and Rooster had a great time playing outside, racing and playing dress-up. I have some awesome pictures of them playing dress-up. But, I didn't get permission to post them. But, I will send them to the Parrot family soon:)

I'm medicated....and feelin' good;)

Yesterday, I went to the doctors for my back pain. I'm loving my doctor right now because he gave me some great pain meds. I might have to do some physical therapy in the future. But, for now I'm just medicating it. It is sooooo nice not to be in constant pain.

Rooster and Big Dog

Today was Rooster and Big Dog's first day of summer preschool. Rooster was excited! Here is a picture of Rooster and Captain Awesome.

Big Dog and I.

And here's a picture of Big Dog and Captain Awesome.

What the toys have been up to.....

The Wonderpets went on a daring space mission. Tuck and Ming Ming have looked better.

I'm not sure about the fate of Linny:(

Lots and lots of pictures from our trip

Our trip to Two Rivers was a blast! These cute little cabooses can lodge up to 6 people. Rooster took a lot of pictures of the inside cabin. I hope to put them on her blog soon. So if you are interested in vacationing there you can check out the accommodations for yourself.
If you look closely you can see Big Dog looking out the window:)




GH was excited when we got inside the caboose.

We climbed up to the top of the caboose. The kids loved playing up there. Rooster loved playing with the lights.

I love this photo!

Awww

Time for smores

Rooster took this picture of GH and I.

Rooster fishin'

Big Dog fishin'

GH fishin'

There was tons of playground equipment at this state park.

Captain Awesome said this was easy.........










but, this was harder.

We spent time outside of the caboose blowing bubbles and playing catch.

Rooster and Big Dog enjoyed the lake.

GH did not like walking in the lake water.

But, GH did like splashing in a small puddle at the lake.














Look what I took a picture of;)

We threw some rocks in a lake. Rooster loved it!

Rooster and Big Dog hangin' out.

This is a picture from the dock at one of the lakes. We met a really nice guy there that had caught two fish. He let the kids look at them. The kids were pretty impressed. The fish were much more interesting than what we caught:)

Big Dog enjoying his breakfast

I was packing things for our camping trip and I found Big Dog gazing out the window enjoying his breakfast. If you can't tell he has a powdered donut and a little play cup with water in it. Isn't he precious?
