Sorry

It has been a while since I have posted. Summer is just plain crazy for us. Since we think that we have to spend every night that we don't have to work in the motor home. We have gone out too many times to list. I love that thing, and since it is the only vehicle we have a payment on I feel like I need to get my monies worth! I have a TON of pics that I want to share so you should be seeing them shortly. Plus I started a new job, that I love BTW. I have been training in the days for the last two weeks so I really haven't had a chance to get on and blog.I started nights this week, well last night actually. I had to work twelve hours from 7p-7a... that sucked bad. I slept until 3 something this afternoon. (My kids went to Polly's) Thankfully I don't have to do that very often. I normally only work from 8-12. Which shouldn't be so bad since I am usually up till 11 something anyway. I work in the NICU at Primary. I answer phones and put in doctors orders. I also help the nurses with anything they need. It is a fun place and so far everyone seems really nice. I am having problems getting images to load today, so hopefully I will have some up shortly. Well I am off to get ready for work and make some dinner!

Memorial weekend, St Anthony's.

Like everyone's (I think) our weekend was pretty rainy. The bikes still got a lot of hours on them and we all had a really good time. I hit a fourth gear jump, in fourth gear! Go me. I also rode a bike for my first time ever. I had never actually ridden a motorcycle before, just ridden ON street bikes. So that was my big accomplishment of the trip! Here are some of my favorite photos. This is a really long post but it is just short captions, I like posting pictures more then telling stories.


On our way, the boys being dorks as usual! You can't tell Kyle is trying to drive at all in this pic.


Still on our way, Paxton looking an awful lot like Brynn in Mom's hat and glasses.


Ethan in Mom's hat and glasses.


The crappy weather that greeted us upon our arrival.


Paxton being "cold"!


All the kids watching a movie during a storm, not really wanting their picture taken!

Brynn eating some chips. Kyle and Joe decided that they really wish they could fit their arms all the way down into the Pringles can. Apparently that would make their lives a lot easier!


The girls getting some alone time away from the crazy boys!


This is what I get when I tell Kyle, "you look cute, let me take a picture of you"


Brynn having a pudding (Stef's actually) with crazy eyes.


Thinking she is big and can drive a four wheeler. I took her around two loops of the campground, at the end of the first one she grabbed the handle bars. Less then half way through the second she reached down with her thumb to do the throttle. She is going to be a dare devil. Plus she loves to go fast on the big bikes.


Paxton being dangerous as usual.


Brynn having a siesta.


The juvenile mouse that came to visit us. (Pretty much dead center)


Brynn helping Dad fix(?) the bike.


Looking innocent enough, what's in the box?


Well that's a good place for him anyway!

No adult supervision required!

I was in the back yard with the kids the other day when I realized I hadn't seen Ethan in a while. Not a big deal really, he has been known to spend a minute or two in the bathroom before! So I head inside just to make sure everything is ok, and this is what I found...


He has got the bread and jam out. Toasted the bread, found a plastic knife and was making himself a little snack!


He hardly made a mess at all and cleaned up everything when he was through. He is so big and smart it almost makes me sad that I am loosing my first baby. Soon he won't let me kiss and snuggle him. I know it :(

Why Brynn is always naked!

Brynn loves to be dirty. No matter where we are or what we are doing she will manage to get completely filthy. I took these pictures a while ago and I when I first saw them I thought the light parts were some powder or something she had spilled on her. But she really is just soaked and the light parts are the color her clothes are supposed to be. This is actually not that bad. Although it did require an outfit change (gets to be in her diaper until we have to go somewhere!) it isn't like she is actually dirty. Usually she is covered in food or mud, maybe a combination of both!




P.S. As to why Paxton is always naked. No post is required. He simply is a nudist!
