While were away...


The boys ruled the roost. They did the grocery shopping, cooking, laundry...you name it they were in charge. They also had a birthday party for Jamie to go to. Caiden Woody, who is about 6 weeks older than Jamie celebrated the big number "2". Steven was set on shopping for him since he and Jamie would attend the party. Honestly, I think that he thought that I would send him to this party with sissy clothes for he and Jamie to give to Caiden. So, he and Jamie took matters in their own hands and bought a bag full of "Boy Toys"! Before heading out, Steven wrote out directions and put the info into the GPS. He still got lost...however still found his way to the street that the Woody family live on. Once he was on the street, he spotted a house with lots of cars and balloons. So he and Jamie unloaded and went right in. A nice lady took the gift bag full of boy toys and sat it on the table. Steven thought that he would mingle a bit and find Caiden. So then he asked..."Where is the Birthday Boy?" Oh, yeah he got the look..."what birthday boy"... and then he realized he was at the wrong house on the street that he was suppose to be at. He was at a little girl's party. He then politely asked for Caiden's gift back and told the family he will say hello to the Woody family. So, once arriving to the Woody's, Steven realized that Jamie didn't have shoes on...Jamie the shoe fanatic that he is, quickly found some of Caiden's and he was good to go. I laughed when I saw what Jamie was wearing at the party, Jamie was in his sweats...lucky boy, if MOM were home you would have been all dressed up!

Aubrey and I had a blast spending our time together, but it is amazing how much control I had to give up just to leave for the weekend. The boys were on their own and I had no say what's so ever!! It is so good that we have such great friends that can find the humor in our actions!

Mom and I Weekend 2010

This weekend Aubrey (my favorite Daisy) and I took off to Girl Scout Camp! This was something new and exciting for the both of us. Here is a look into our adventure.



Aubrey says that the horseback riding was her favorite part. I enjoyed the paddle boating, however my legs are really sore.

We are some tired chicas and we are looking forward to crawling into our own beds!

We have been busy!


Saturday Aubrey had her first game. She did so great, it is so funny how she has grown.

Then we were off to Connor's Birthday Party. He is officially one!





Then this morning we headed to church while Steven ran into the lab. After nap time we played outside as much as possible.








Then rub-a-dub-dub, two clean Pollies right out of the tub!
One big note is that Jamie is teething again, molars are arriving!!
We had a great weekend, we should have an interesting week...please no more snow!!

Is there a doctor in the house????

Aubrey had a field trip to a hospital yesterday. She came home with this new outfit and she wanted to play in it. So, she took care of her baby while I made dinner.
Aubrey has been really big on making post-its so we don't forget things. Here she made me a note not forget to crank the car.
Jamie has given up Pop-tarts this week and we have ventured on to cereal. Whatever sissy does he is right under her.
Our last note...this one lives on the garage door. This sign lets you know not to walk on the garage floor with no shoes. Aubrey says the floor is to cold.
Today is a full day and the sun is shinning! So let us get going!

No filter on her mouth

Steve writing tonight. There was one cute/awkward story from our girl scout booth yesterday. A lady on crutches came up to buy cookies. No one realized anything was odd, until my daughter asks the lady where her leg was. One of her pants legs was empty, and only Aubrey noticed she only had one leg. The lady was really nice and said she left it at home.

It's really amazing to me to think how innocent Aubrey is sometimes. Of course I talked to her later about what is appropriate to say and what isn't. But I still have to laugh at Aubrey trying to figure out how the lady left her leg at home.
