Magic Balloons

Today I took the kids to the event at the library. It was a man telling stories using balloon animals. He had kids volunteer for each story. At first my kids didn't want to volunteer but once they saw how much fun it was they all volunteered. Taylor was a mouse in one story. Alyssa was a hippo and Noah was a sheep in another story.

Relaxing

We started out the summer trying to do something fun everyday which was a bad idea. It ended up with more whining, fussing & fighting than anything. Now we are spending more time relaxing and being lazy.

Today was a pretty rainy day. So for the most part the kids just laid around and watched movies.

VBS

This week I haven't felt very well so we have stayed at home during the day and the kids have gone to VBS in the evenings. They have loved it! I am so glad we are getting back into going to church again and it makes me so happy to know all of the kids like it. I wish I had a picture of the girls singing during worship. Noah is a little more hesitate but I think VBS has helped that. I was asked about going to church on Wednesday nights and I've been asked about Sunday School. It's amazing how God helps with what you need in your life and your children's lives when you let him.

June 3rd

I have been slacking the last few days on my post so here is to trying to catch up.

Saturday me and Adam took Taylor to Splash Pad and Mimi met us there. She had a lot of fun playing with Adam in the water and the playground was opened so she got to play on it too. She saw a moth and had to catch it. She was so cute showing me her "butterfly". Adam and I stayed till Bradley got fussy then we took him home and Taylor spent some time with Mimi.

First Day of Summer

So yesterday was the first day of summer and compared to spring burrrrr!!! We didn't do much during the day, we ran some errands, the kids played and I did some work.

After Alyssa and Noah went to Chris's me, Taylor and Bradley went outside to swim. I was hoping the water would be warm enough for Bradley to get in but it was so windy that it was too cold for him to get in. Taylor played for a while, then we went inside, changed into our pjs, cuddled up on the couch and Taylor played the wii till bedtime.

Last Weight Check

This morning we took Bradley to the doctor for a weight check and he had gained 3 1/2 oz in a week. The doctor said we do not have to come weekly anymore since I have a scale at home unless I see a drop in his weight at home. YAY!!

This month I really slacked on taking Bradley's monthly pictures. I finally broke down and did it today. I was really hoping for something a little different than what I have done every month so far but it just didn't work out this month. I was afraid if I waited any longer I wouldn't get any three month old pictures so today I made sure I got them done.

Less Than Noteworthy

Today was one of our not so good days. I planned for us to go to splash pad and have a picnic lunch which is what we did but I have one child who doesn't mind and two children who were whining. I did have one baby who was either asleep or smiling most of the time there. So after a short lived less than pleasant trip we returned home and spent the rest of the afternoon resting.
