It's Baha Time

Well, Mike has left to Arizona!! Yippee! We will both be glad to have this project done. So will the kids. They REALLY miss their daddy. All day long they have been asking to walk to daddy's work. I told them that daddy is too far away to walk to. We walk to meet Mike at work sometime and it is the kids most fav thing to do. While Mike is gone, the kids and I are thinking about going to Utah to play. We have a small car that does not take too much gas, so we might go play for a couple of days. We will see if we can find a place to stay.
Mike's dad and brothers are going to meet Mike in Arizona for the race. Mike is excited to spend some time with them. We will let everyone know how things to at the race and how the care performs.

It's Baha Time

Kids say the darndest things

Just a few things that the kids say that are so cute.
Yesterday, the kids and I walked to Mike's work to meet him. Jordan rode his big wheel and the twins were in the stroller. Jordan would take off down the hill and I would hav eto fun to keep up with him. I had to yell at him from behind him to slow down and wait for me. When we got to Mike's work, we were playing on the grass across the ally from Mike's work. I told Jordan to not go into the road because daddy does not want you to get hurt. Well, then a few minutes later, McKay tried to cross the street. Jordan yelled at McKay to "stop, daddy will get mad at you".
McKay stopped. When we get there McKay wants to ride the bikes with daddy.
Jordan has also started saying "oh, my gosh" It is so cute to hear it come out of his mouth. He is talking so much more. I will write more of the cute things that he says.

One More thing

McKay walks around the house all day long with his hands in the air saying "Daddy at work". Jordan and I have to tell him that yes, daddy is at work.
Mackenzie walks around the house asking to go to the park all day long. Actually all of them ask that all day long. They all have tans already becuase to go outside so much.
The kids love to sing. Their fav song is "I'm so glad when Daddy comes home". When we sing it the kids all do the motions and when we come to the part that goes, "pat his cheeks and give him What". I sing all but the word "what" and both the twins put their hands in the air and say"what" then we sing "a great big kiss" and they blow him kisses. The cutest thing that we have ever seen .

We had this picture taken of the kids last month. Don't they look SO CUTE!!! I think that it is funny that they all have such somber faces. I guess that is the way that they all looked in these old pictures.

Mike is READY to go. He looks pretty good on him.

This is the car that Mike worked all semester long working. It is almost ready to go.

Summer is here!!

WEll, since we usually only post pictures, we thought that we would write a little about our going ons. WE are helping Mike to get ready for the Baha competition. They leave on Tuesday morning. I am not looking forward to being alone here with three kids for a week. We will have to get very creative of things to do. Sure with there was a pool here!!! When we are looking for places to live, we want a pool!
We have been potty training the twins. Thanks to Aunt Christine for her good advise with mulitples. So far, nit too much luck, but we are going to keep trying. One day things will click.
We are having trouble with bedtime latley. They have always been so good to go to bed, but now that they are all in big beds, they just jump from bed to be and bump heads together and pull sheets off the beds. I work for a two hours after they are put to bed to get them to actually go to sleep. Night time used to be so peaceful.
Jordan is getting so tall. He needs size 4 pants for the legs, but they fall off his too skinny waist. McKay needs just the opposite. He needs the extra size for his waitst, but his legs have not caught up...but they are going to soon! Mackanezie towers over other girls her age. We are going to have TALL kids I think.
They kids have been having fun getting to know their cousin, aunt and uncle that just moved to Idaho Falls. We try and get together once a week and play. Jacob just loves to come and play with all our kids. He tries to jump out of Marcia's arms to get down quickly. Marcia and I have tried to get together and scrapbook. We have been having lots of fun.
If anyone gets an itch to come to Rexburg next week, I would love to have any company. Or at least give me a call.

We had to go utside before it was really the right weather for that. Jordan loves to play in the grass outside.

Miss Mackenzie likes to pose for the camera. She is so cute!!

Jordan was a little monkey at the park. I had to catch my heart from falling out a few times as I watched him climb. He is just getting too independant and big.

McKay and daddy on the jungle gym at the park. McKay is not sure if he should smile or yell for Mom to get him down

Next kids turn!!!

The twind learned a new trick in nursery. They like to ride on the vacume while I vacume. I should have arms of steel after I am done pushing this things around.

Mike and Jordan were at the store when the twins woke up from their naps. They were not quite ready to wake up yet, so the cuddled with Mom for a little while. I love every minute of cuddle time that I get.

What a Pair!!!

Mackenzie's hair WAS done before her nap!!

The twins were having a snack on the stairs together today!! Mackenzie

Here is Jordan at Chuckie Cheese for the twins birthday party. He had so much fun!

This is a little later, but this is Jordan his first day of Pre-school. He loved to go to school this year. We can't wait for it to start again in the Fall

Is it summer Yet????

We are ready for the summer to get here. Just when we think that we are on our way to warmer weather, we get a cold front coming through!!! The kids don't seem to care, they want to be outside no matter what. Mike just finished his semster and started again. He is just taking one class during the summer. Hopefully we will see more of him this way. Jordan says dad is at work ALL THE TIME!!!
Enjoy the pictures of our growing family. I put a few pictures on there of the kids when they were much smaller. So much fun!!

One more remember when shot.

Look at this baby girl. I think the twins were about 7 months old here!!Time goes too fast!

Remember when!!! Can you beleive that McKay used to be this small with this much hair!!!

Her is a shot of our dad doing what he does best... or at least does best that he gets paid at!!

I am a little proud of this cake. I made it for a baby shower and I think that it turned out so pretty. I have always wanted to make a pretty cake!

Our trip to our fav isle in Sams Club!!! The Diapers!!!

Dad and his bear hugs. McKay got hit by one of Jordan's fly balls during a game of T-Ball!! Dad can make it all better

This is the easiest way to get around with all these kids!!!

Mackenzie finally gets time to be a girl. She is surrounded by trucks and balls she had to find some relief time with her doll house!!!
