My Legs

This is what my legs look like on any given day. My kids always ask- Mom, can I draw on you?

Yea, I know I am weird. I remember doing this as a kid to my dad and loving it. Sometimes I forget to wipe it off before going places. I decided this is my way of going green!

Circus Time

Last weekend we took the kids to the Shrine Circus with the Rogers. The kids had a lot of fun. We love hangin with the Rogers fam.

Jaxson Started soccer

He has played 3 games so far and is so funny to watch. He has wanted to play ever since Max started. He finally turned 3 so we put him on a team.....he just runs around in his own little world! He gets so excited when he kicks the ball, he comes running over just to make sure we saw. I love this pic of him....it is a little blurry

Boston

His first attempt at rice cereal
just being happy



I just forget how fast babies grow. Boston is almost 6 months and is getting so big and does new things almost everyday. He is such a happy and fun baby, all I have to do is look at him and he gets excited! I think this is my favorite age because I am his world. He watches every move I make and just stares at me all day. He can spot me from almost anywhere. He wants constant attention and I love to give it to him. He sits up really good, plays with his toys and rolls around a little. Max and Jaxson love to play with him and make him laugh! He did so good while we were camping and he even got his first two teeth up there. He still is not a good sleeper, but he loves to snuggle. He is obsessed with the remote to the TV and likes to watch the boys play video games. I bought a baby sling, which was the best money ever spent. Now he can be connected to my hip and I still have two usable hands. I love love this boy and every second of the day I spend with him.
My house is a disaster and I cant stand it. I have laundry piled up in all rooms, bathrooms that need cleaned, hair color sitting out from a few days ago...so many things that need to be done. But I would rather play dinosaurs with Jaxson, read books to Max and kiss Boston all day! ............There will be time for cleaning later. I am usually not like this. Sometimes I feel like I am going to have a panic attack when the house is a mess. Oh well
1 day old! 1 week old

Reunion 2008

We went up to the Goodman reunion again this year just past Showlow. We look forward to this camping trip every year. We go with Johns side of the family and boy do we sure love them! Although it wasn't the same with out Ren, he was taken to the hospital the day we got up there and was there for 4 days. He ended up having his gall bladder taken out and thankfully he did great. We look forward to next year when we can sit around the campfire all night and laugh with him.
Last year we started taking Bethany and Craig up with us, and this year Eden got to come! The boys had a blast going for rides on the quad with Trevor, following the big boys around and going on walks with Phil, sticking marshmallows in the fire, taking turns playing the DS, playing in the rain and digging in the dirt. I love camping. It cant get better than that, sitting around with a bunch of nothing to do.
Everyone left on Monday except Landon and Savannah, Bethany and Craig, and us. I have to admit it was a little creepy being the only ones left in the forest. After we put the kids to bed we all came out and sat by the fire. For some reason we started talking about ghosts, scary men in flannel shirts, and other random weird things. It sounds a little stupid now but Bethany and I were scared to death! Seriously scared...Then Landon acts like he goes into his trailer to do some business (Savannah covered for him) and he snuck into the woods and started making noises. HOLY CRAP we were freakin out! I almost started crying. Now it is funny. He is a funny guy. He got us good. Ha ha
Here are some fun pics.

Preschool!!

Jaxson is so excited to have started preshool! We are doing Joy School with 4 other friends. Each of the moms get a turn to teach twice a week every 5 weeks, I am excited for my turn. I know this is going to be a great program for the kids. I thought Jaxson would have some reservations about starting, but he gets up, gets ready and doesnt even look back! I love it. He thinks he is so big.

Did someone have a birthday?

You Know it! Max is now 5! These have been the best 5 years ever. He has grown into such a handsome and sweetboy, we are so lucky he is a part of our family. We were so excited to give him his presents, that we did it the night before. He was in total shock that he got a Nintendo DS! He hasnt put it down since...pure excitement!!!
...as soon as he gets home from school..I may need to set some limits on this thing

The Jumping Party!

We had a combo party for Max and Kambrie, who also turned 5 and for my sister Annie who is 12. It was SOO fun! Thanks to all who came, it really meant a lot to Max! He loves the fam...
