Picking flowers

Teaching his little sis to pick flowers. They managed to pluck every last one of them, too. :)









Pink Barbie Jeep

Gracie no longer has to watch her brother have all the fun on his tractor. She is now the proud owner of a pink Barbie Jeep - complete with FM radio - lol. Ok - so she can't steer it yet, but Clint got a kick out of how she goes forward until she runs into something, then puts it in reverse until she runs into something, then puts it back in drive until she....well, you get the picture.

She got a little upset when we made her give Fisher a turn to drive.



Three Mommies Fun Day

A few weeks ago, Amy and Lisa brought their kids down to play at our house. Boring ol' Kristen just picked up a box of Caprisun drinks and a new box of graham cracker sticks to go with the dinosaur nuggets I had in the freezer. I should have known better. Amy and Lisa came prepared with ice cream, chocolate and butterscotch magic freeze, cherries, sprinkles, and whipped cream! They also brought a helium tank to blow up balloons for the kids. Along with the bounce house that I had going and the bubble machine, I'm sure the people driving by thought that we were having a birthday party instead of a playdate - haha. I always heard that Amy and Lisa knew how to party - I guess it's just changed direction a bit - LOL!! Fisher and Gracie had a blast with their old friends Riley and Raegan and their new friends Callie and Carter!




Is it any surprise that she was the last one left eating??






I thought this was a cute that Callie had lined up all the animals for a concert!
Carter is enjoying that sundae!




I love this pic - don't know if she was dancing or helping the bubbles flow!

The little mama...






Riley never let go of that red balloon!


They are ready for a local parade now - haha.







Ponytail!





The girl has finally grown enough hair to make a tiny little ponytail on top. She looks like one of those cute little bugs from Sesame Street (I'm thinking back to the 70's now - wow, I'm old).

Frogs and caterpillars

Two little critters that we found on our front porch during the past month. No - I don't have pictures of the black widow spider - except the ones burned on my brain.





Family Time

I'm kind of proud of this one, since I had to take it with the timer and tripod. The kids were good for three shots before losing interest - luckily I got a decent one! I've ordered a remote for my camera so it will be easier from now on!

Fisher LOVES his big brother Allen!

Clint took this one - I thought it came out pretty good!
Honking daddy's nose is so much fun!



Misc. pics




It's hard to believe that these quiet, sleeping little angels can make SO MUCH NOISE during the day - haha.



Hmmm - maybe enough pictures for that day?

Silly boy!
The girl loves her corn - I don't think that's the good part though.
There - much better tasting!

He found it in my never used make-up drawer. I told him it was a nose-squisher. Bad mommy!


Oops - I've been caught!
Princess Cutie Pie!


Since she realized she could fit in her doll stroller a couple of weeks ago, she has been treated to several rides down the hall courtesy of her big bro.
