Nana's birthday.

Well it didn't start off too good. The picture of the clouds is Nana's birthday balloon on its way to space!!! Tyler was VERY upset that Nana's birthday balloon flew away and was in the clouds!

We took Nana and Pa to brunch for their birthday's. Nana's birthday was yesterday and Pa's birthday is this Saturday and we will be in Florida.

As you can see, it is soooo hard to get all these monkey's to sit, look and smile at the camera. Oh well, they sure did eat a ton!!!! Thankfully is was a buffet and free for the kids and as long as you put food in front of them, they ate it!!!

Yogurt stix and watermelon, yummy!!!

What better way to cool off than frozen yogurt stix and some watermelon!

Our $10.00 pool will do just fine.

It was a beautiful weekend, the sun was out and it was a scorcher!!! What else to do than break out the pool...... The only one who had a hat that fit was Kate (thanks Heather). Tyler and Shawn are wearing daddy's!!!

Who's breakfast is this??????

This is why I stand at the kitchen counter to eat.....

Random pics of the kids having fun outside.

One hot mess!!!!!

Invasion of the puppies......now Shawn is armed with two!!!

Happy Mother's Day!!!

Can it get much sweeter than this?

Spaghetti night....

I thought taking off their shirts would be enough. Obviously not!!! I think Shawn needs a bucket to recycle back to his bowl. Oh well, they enjoyed it.....

The swingset is a busy place.....

take note in the video how Shawn claps for himself, as he makes it down the slide!!!!

Besides baking, we always try to find something fun and different to do while Kate and Shawn are napping.

These are called Do-a-Dot Art markers from Amy, along with a cool monster truck book to use them in.

I picked up these pre-school workbooks that Tyler enjoys doing, too.

Tyler and I making some chocolate oatmeal cookies.

1st we needed to borrow an ingredient from my mini-grocery, Heather. Which also comes with delivery from our wonderful helpers......the cookies didn't look that great but they tasted pretty good.
