Kyle's first day as a cub scout!

Oh My Gosh! Is he not the cutest thing you have ever seen?!



We also were able to celebrate his birthday with his class, but being the forgetful mother I am I forgot the camera!
Kyle wanted to bring his class the best cookies ever so we ordered some baseballs. Super cute, Super yummy! Not to mention pricy. 2 dozen 35 bucks! He has expensive taste!

Easter Sunday Pictures

Kyle turns 8!

My little boy just turned 8! Time sure flies by. He had a pretty big day. We decided to have a family party. So Kyle went to practice, we opened presents, then I took him shopping, then off to Tahoe Joes his favorite restaurant! Here are some pictures....

Easter


As part of the Easter preparations Sam channeled his inner bunny! Kyle's teacher asked him to be their easter bunny for their party this year. Being the amazing Dad he is he agreed. He probably won't be too happy with me for sharing this but I can't resist!

The kids being OPA!

For some reason the kids decided to impersonate their Opa before going to bed. It was pretty funny. They were running around the house screaming OPA!

a little update

So last Monday was Presidents Day!! Sam took the day off, so we had a family day of fun:) First we went bowling. It was a lot of fun. Kaylee ended up winning! She beat Sam by one point. I had the absolute worst game of my life. I got a whopping 51. Sad huh? Our next stop was pizza for lunch and off to the movies. We saw Hotel For Dogs. It was pretty cute. Kaylee loved it since she is totally obsessed with whoofs (dogs)! We ended up running into some friends so the boys had fun sitting next to them.
The boys were busy this week being obsessed with buildling forts. I am not a huge fan of the forts. They are a mess, but the kids love them.
Kaylee kept herself busy writing letters to Hunter (a dog we were watching for the past month). One night when she was supposed to be sleeping she came down with a toy mailbox, opened it up and a ton a papers spilled out. She insisted we mail them to her Hunter. It was so sweet. I haven't mailed the letters yet though.
Last night Sam and I went out with some friends to Shoguns. So yummy! Then we decided to go to our friends house and play with the wii fit they just got. They have this really cool Shaun White Snowboarding game. It was so much fun. It made me think I could snowboard! However I did have a huge problem running into all the trees!

Alex is also doing great. He loves being a big brother. Everyday Alex, Kaylee and I walk (he rides is scooter) to pick up Kyle. It is a great reason to take a walk everyday. Fortunately the weather is warm enough we can do that. While we're walking Kaylee reaches out her arms for Alex to give her a hug. She really does love him. Right now he is very much into trains. He wanted a big Thomas Train track for Christmas. He also carries many of his trains in his back pack around the house. He also really loves Lightning McQueen and all the Cars stuff. He and Kyle both enjoy jumping on the trampoline. It is something they do everyday. Alex also loves tools and working with his dad on projects!

Kaylee

Kaylee is full of personality. She has just been so fun to have in our family. She is definitely entertaining. She is also so loving. She loves her brothers very much always following them around and wanting to be right in the mix of everything they do. She adores her dad. Everyday she will hear the chime from the front door when Sam comes home and she walks as fast as she can talking, (we don't know what she is saying yet) with her arms streched for her dad. Her favorite toys are her doll house, a big farm she can walk in, babies, and this toy that pops balls out. She has been a super happy baby. She is growing up so fast. She really just wants to do what everyone else does. Her all time favorite thing is her blankie. She has a few. She just loves fleece blanket with fringe. She carries them around all day and put them to her nose and smells them. Don't ask me why.
