I'm in trouble...

Look what this little man learned how to do on his own??? Climb up on stuff. Theses stairs will be my biggest worry! He has been a busy boy the last few weeks. He has 3 new teeth, learned how to crawl (the correct way, no more army crawl) had/has an ear infection and is pulling up on everything! STOP GROWING!

Photo Tag

I tag Stef, Marsha Kris, Karen, Suzie, Janet, Carrie and Betsy!!! (all my sis's and sister-in-laws)

The Middle Child of Mine...

I am not one to brag about my kids because I think that every parent thinks their own children are smart, funny, brilliant etc, but: Be Ye Warned, I am going to brag!!!!

Wes just turned 4 a few weeks ago and he learned how to ride a 2 wheel bike! I took his training wheels off and helped balance him, but then he did the rest. We went to the park and practiced. Within minutes he picked it up and then he rode around the WHOLE trail at the park all by himself. I was shocked.

This type of thing more his older sister's mentality to pick up on things so quickly. Syd taught herself to whistle, snap, blow a bubble with bubble gum, she picked up on writing and spelling at an early age. But Wes beat the pants off of her at learning how to ride a bike! The poor middle child gets a bad rap sometimes, but he is dang awesome in every way and I hope he knows that we (his parents) know it! Good job little dude!

HAPPY APRIL!!!

We had a great spring break in Lynnwood seeing Dad/Aaron. During the week we:

Got a new van
Saw Monsters vs Aliens
When out for seafood with the 'rents and no kids!!! :0)
Kids enjoyed Build-A-Bear with Grandma-sooooo much fun for them. (Sydnie's bears names is Tootsie and Wesley's is Mark-sorry Sydnie took this pic of the bears not the best but you get the idea!)
Enjoyed each other company
Shopped

It was even sunny the last 2 days we were there so we got to spend some time outside! I LOVE the sun, it makes me feel so happy! I can't think of anything my kids like more than grandmas and grandpas! BLISS!!!

Our van was so needed and it is INCREDIBLE! We have so much room now. NO more squishing 3 car seats into the back of the 4-runner and no more driving dangerously in the Oldsmobile!!!!! HALLELUJAH!!

Van details:
2006 Kia Sedona
15,000 miles (WAHOO)
Gold
GOOD DEAL!
