update

I finally am grabbing a minute to update what we've been up to. I would love to say that we have been on an awesome vacation or busy doing fabulous summer fun things. But alas and alack, no. We have been dealing with crazy kids and crazy guys. It seems everyone is deciding to go nuts this summer and cause drama in our house. I've decided that everyone is vying for attention and they are in a competition to out do each other with wild behaviors. Right now Mark is in the lead followed closely by Tyson, Taylor and Darrell are tied for third and Hayden is a distant last place. She is probably doing the best, but maybe that's because she gets the most attention :)
Isn't she the cutest center piece you've ever seen?

We are so lucky to have such an easy going, happy baby! At her 4 month check up she weighed almost 17 pounds and the doctor was surprised at how strong and alert she was. He gave me some helpful tips on how to keep heat rash out of all her chubby leg and arm rolls. I guess Baby powder is old school and can cause awful yeast infections in chub rolls, who knew?
Tyson finished his t-ball season and did AWESOME! When he decides to be a turd at home I will have to remind myself how happy I have been with him this t-ball season. I have seriously been waiting for him to be in sports since he was 6 months old! I love my little t-baller!!!
Taylor is becoming quite the little out spoken almost 2 year old. She has decided that she wants to be potty trained and goes crazy if there is anything in her diaper. She comes down every morning grabbing her diaper and shouting "Na na" and then points to the bathroom and says"elmo". Translation: There is nastiness in my diaper and I would like to sit on my Elmo potty chair.
Here are Jason and Hayden having a little snooze together :)
The other day I tried to chronicle a day in our life so I took this picture on the way to the grocery store. We got all the way to Super Walmart and I realized I didn't bring my purse. By the time I got the kids reloaded in the car to go back home to get my purse I was pretty defeated and we stayed home the rest of the day. Three kiddos is no joke! I would have had major melt downs had I attempted to drive all the way back and then put them through a shopping trip.
We got the high chair out of the garage for Hayden to sit in while I work in the kitchen. Taylor has decided that it is her seat and I have found her many times just sitting in it chillin'.
We also got the excesaucer out for Hayden and she is liking being able to stand and see all the action around her. I think the hat was Tyson's idea.
The other day our friends came over and we went to the water park. The kids had a blast spending the day with their favorite babysitters :)



Can you believe June is almost over? Summer is flying by!

  2. How did I miss this post? I think something is wrong with my computer- it's not telling me when they are new posts going on!!!

    You are brave with 3 children- I would probably stay home all day... or only go to Sonic.

    Ahhhhh the excesaucer! That was the greatest toy ever! Thanx for letting us use it for Austin- seriously, the greatest part of my day was when he was in it-so happy!
