muddin' around

Beware! The next 3 pics are the boys and MUD! We were doing tons of yard work this weekend so we let the boys do as they please. And they did.....

Notice Ethan in the background, He took each piece of clothing off one at a time but i did not think he would go naked. So Kristin now you see why I was crazy the other day.


Eli's hair is so long i put a rubberband in it and two clips on the side. He looks like a girl wearing a blue PJ top. Zeke tells him often "aw,look at our cute little girl."

Spring break fun for us all.

We started the week off a bit boring and cleaned house. We then went to the zoo on Wednesday. It was WAY FUN as always! I love seeing the boys eyes light up. They also think they can make the same noises as the animals or at least they try. Boys are LOUD! Ordyna fam went with us. The Ordyna's are tons of fun! I love taking pictures but there is no way i could post them all. We then went to Southaven after the zoo. We were all so tired. It was 77 degrees and to me that's hot when you have to chase kids. Our Southaven adventure was fun, We looked at houses, we went shopping, and we played around with Liz baby, Reina. The boys loved her and still talk about her. Eli will ask "Where the baby"?
One reason i want to live there is b/c 4 airplanes went by within a 2 min time frame. The boys were in heaven. That's all they wanted to do was go out and watch planes. So a big fenced in yard, a trampoline and bunch of airplanes sounds like heaven to me.

I hope they do good when i have the 3rd child. Let's keep our fingers crossed.
We have now had a full weekend. For those of you may remember we had the post up last fall for the fence and we have NOW finally finished the fence. Well we have to put up the gate so i can drive my car onto the patio during the rainy days. I am so excited! It's lovely when you dont have to see your neighbors. I bought the boys a tent just for them so we are going to have a family camp out in our yard. Oh the joys of having boys. Here are some pics from the zoo.

Paul, Zeke, Eli, Eden, Ethan, Cydni. David must be walking behind his mommy.

Ethan and Eden were watching the sea lions. Until i ask them to take a picture.

Eli is walking on a log as daddy helps just a bit. Dont you know almost 2 years old can do this by themselves.

These two pic are my fav. You just had to be there to hear Ethan say "Look mom, I'm a monkey" Then he precedes to eat "his monkey lunch"

I finally got the pics on here. YEAH for me!

Me and Zeke in 6 inches of snow in Des moines, Iowa Feb. 13, 2009

Ok I think i can do this now. I deleted the old post by accident so here ya go.........It's a sunny Monday mourning and It's to cold to go outside. Oh no that means another day stuck inside together. We may have to go to the library. O, boy they love the library! It's not a place to read books or be quite as least to Ethan he thinks its good to run around and be loud that is why we stay 10 mins and im done! Yeah tomorrow will be 60 degrees. We can go outside! Woo Hoo!
So let me tell you we have a huge spider man fan in our home and that would be Zeke haha ok JK no it's really Ethan. He acts like spiderman tries to throw webs out from his hand and wants everything that has anything to do with spiderman. We went to Family dollar store yesterday, which is a cool place. They had tons of spiderman items for cheap. So of coarse to shut my kid up I bought as much as we could.
He also got a new gun yesterday. So Ethan and Jacob are going to play guns on Thursday. I'll send pics later. We also got a new net for our trampoline. We got it on sale o, the joys of getting something you really want or need for CHEAP! The kids are in heaven with that because i can put them on it and leave them out there. Some of you may not know but the strong storms aka Tornado winds picked up our trampoline and threw it into the neighbors yard. So the trampoline was fixed and is now grounded.
