The Lake

So someone asked me a while back if I had anything to post about besides my kids. Umm....let me think about that for a sec...NOPE! LOL... I don't know if they were annoyed or just inquisitive, but none-the-less, this stay-at-home mom to 3 energy suckers 4 yrs and under doesn't have another wild life on the side, nor the energy/time to actually have one! I remember thinking I would NEVER, ever, ever be able to stay home more than 2 days in a row....and that was pushing it! Well I'll be dog-gone......I've turned a new leaf! I can do 3 days no problemo! (that's "no problem" for those of you who live in a city where English isn't the 2nd language). haha Plus, I don't remember how to have an adult conversation anymore, so I may be a bit of a bore anyway. I might start asking repetitive questions that begin and end with "Why?" Why?" "Why?" I could possibly jazz it up with a "What's that?" But then I'd follow it up with a "Why?" =)

Anyway, so this weekend our Sunday School class had a day at the Lake and we had a quick worship service, bbq'd, had lots of yummy junk food, good conversation and skiing/tubing! It was a perfectly beautiful day and there was a good turnout of families. There just happens to be quite a few sweet young girls in our class that were all fighting over holding Emma. It's pretty cute. I'm gonna have them all come over to my house and then they can fight over her all they want. All day long. No, really...I am. I don't think they'll notice if I slip out for a few hours or take a quick nap either! =) Now if could only get them to fight over the other 2, I may have a whole day to myself! Whoo Hoo!

I was only going to stay for about a hour and ended up staying the whole day. Emma gets an award for the best baby ever without a nap. She was a trooper! She did sneak in about 20 minutes right at the end of the day in Daddy's arms. Nothing like a nap in Daddy's arms, that's for sure. I won't ever forget falling asleep on my dad's arms riding in his truck..they were the best!

Here's a few pictures I took. I didn't take many, but the one's of Davis are pretty funny. And that's pretty much what he did all day. Remember how I told you he was sneaky, sneaky? I was a bad mommy and didn't really monitor (well, I sorta monitored but just didn't battle it out) all the junk he and Maddy ate. And did they ever. Cookies, cake, rice krispies, chips, chips and more chips. Oh..and a bite of hot dog for some protein. And soda. Mmmm......I'm a bit scared of taking them to the dentist! But, uh...next time I think I'll be a bit on top of things more since Maddy threw up in the evening after going to bed. Lots and lots of junk food + lots of sun on a 4 yr old=barfing in mommy and daddy's bed. Ahhhh...the joys of mommyhood! LOL.... Oh...and I didn't monitor too strickly (is that a word? why?) how much she drank before going nighty nighty in our bed and John & I both rolled over onto something very, very wet..... EEWWW!


Nice "background" ey? lol..
Handsome hubby holding sweet baby girl...

And here it is.... he was very quiet...a bit off to himself, while we were all listening to the service...
Oh..and notice his shirt? It says AWESOME with an arrow pointing up. LOL...love it! I'm surprised his daddy doesn't have one of those!

Jules,

These photos are fantastic! I think it's great that you are home with the 3 of them. I'm trying really hard to figure out a way NOT to go back to school in August.

And...yes. Davis is SNEAKY, but TOO darn cute for it to be a BAD thing! :-)
