too hot!

it has been terribly HOT here.

we don't really go outside unless water is involved.

we had some friends over the other day.

we had snacks, water balloons and lots of fun.

olivia and daniel were really cute together.

they both loved teasing eachother and didn't mind getting teased back.

kale doesn't know that crack kills.

coloring and goggles

here is the proof...

kale is obessed with coloring!

he cries and cries if you don't let him.

he is adorable!

 

mallory, right before bed.

these are the normal things we do before we go to bed, right?

tooth fairy

my sweet baby girl lost a tooth.

isn't that crazy!

she waw so excited.

can you tell?

whole in the mouth and the tooth.

close up.

 

the tooth fairy came!

she/he left $5 and a note. 

we rented the movie the toothfairy and it was really funny.

we all liked it.

especially olivia!

more projects!

i have been obessed with making these diaper pads and wipes cases.

it's all nanas fault.

i actually dreamt about this polka dot/blue one.

i made it and it turned out just like my dream.

i put some pizazz on this little blue swimsuit for a friend in our ward.

i made this basket for the trip.  it went in between the girls seats

and held all their toys and stuff.

it worked great!

i made these "to do" lists for olivia's teachers.

i am going to make my own they turned out so cute!

18 months with this sweet boy!

kale went to nursey today!

HOORAY!

he is adorable.

he is 18 months old.

where did the time go?

he loves to play and be silly.

mom and dad can't get enough of his kisses and squeezes.

he loves to be with his sisters and "play" with them.

if he could be anywhere, he would be outside

with a rock and a stick.

he runs and is trying to learn how to ride a skateboard.

recently he has become OBESSED with coloring.

he wants to color all day long and trying to get the crayon away from him

is almost impossible!

kale says TONS of words and is getting into more and more trouble!

he went to nursey for the first time and LOVED it.

didn't cry and stayed the whole 2 hours.
AMAZING!

we love you kale! 

thanks for being such a great boy!

fun at HOME!

brett took monday off so we could have some quality family time.

he missed us when we were gone!

we missed him too!

the kids and brett were playing a silly game.

they got mallory's swimming shirt wet and then tried to throw it at eachother.

mallory is winding up in this picture!

we played outside.

oh, how i hate humidity!

this is the biggest bug i have EVER seen.

of course, brett picked it up and became friends with it.

it was huge, really really huge.

he was going to eat it.  just to be gross.

kale thought it was cool but from a distance.

 

isn't that a sweet face!

adorable mallory.

happy olivia.

pouting olivia.

we are home. 

weird.

what a great trip we had.

but we are glad to be with brett again!
