Garrison's First Day of School

Now that he is three, Garrison goes to pre-school for speech/social therapy. He LOVES it, and LOVES riding the school bus. The only down side is Emma and Riley are SOOOO jealous.

Party Time!

Here are some pictures from the Boys' birthday bash.

Happy Birthday Boys!

We celebrated Garrison and Riley's third birthday this week and I can not believe that they are three. It has been a wonderful and busy three years. My boys are so sweet, and loving. They love cars, and trains, and playing (annoying) their big sister. They all pile up on Lee when he wakes up in the afternoon to have some Daddy time. I love watching them grow and learn. Happy Birthday to my wonderful little men!

My newest favorite picture

I found this when checking on Jackson the other night....

....makes me love Shrek that much more!

Great Balloon Race 2007

I took the boys to Forest Park on Saturday for the Great Balloon Race. (Emma was visiting her grandparents) We had a great time. We met up with Aunt T-T and cousin Logan. The boys got to go on a pony ride, and tractor/train ride. They each made a noodle necklace, that I got to wear with pride. It was a long fun day. Enjoy the pics!

This one was my favorite balloon!

This is just some of the balloons launched.

This balloon blocked the sun, it was like an eclipse.

Garrison and Riley on the tractor/train ride. Garrison didn't like it as much as Riley did.

The Engergizer bunny, the ballon everyone was trying to catch up with. This balloon is bigger than the statue of liberty!

Happy Birthday Emma!

We celebrated Emma's fifth birthday this week. Its hard to believe that our baby girl is already five years old. I still remember the day she was born like it was yesterday.

Go again and the next visit will be free...

Not really, but it seems that visiting the Urgent Care is as close to Chuck E. Cheese as it gets. When you first go in, you get crayons and coloring books. They also give you a cool orange watch/bracelet. Then they check you over with these cool gadgets that go on your finger and under your arm. Then someone comes in and REMOVES THE POPCORN KERNELS FROM YOUR EARS!!!! I had to take Riley in because he put the kernels in his ears and I couldn't get them out. This is the second time that he had put some foreign object into his ears. I am surprised that the nurses and doctors don't recognize us. We have been to the urgent care three times the past couple of months.

I guess its a boy thing.

About a month or so ago I lost (sob) my beloved camera. It wasn't the best camera, but I was able to take pics of the kids and upload them whenever I wanted. Knowing how it was tearing me apart that I couldn't take pics of the kids anytime I wanted, Lee told me that I could purchase a new camera last payday. Have I mentioned how much I love that man??? I looked online and found a pretty good deal on ebay. I went and bid on it when there was less than a minute remaining, so I knew it was MINE!!! I waited on pins and needles until it arrived, and tracked the package at least 10 times. When I got it I couldn't wait to start snapping pics. So here are some of those pics....ENJOY!!

Here is Riley, sporting a new haircut, I guess the flash surprised him!

Jackson and Emma, she just LOVES her baby brother!

I was so excited that I woke Lee to show him my new camera.

Here is Garrison...not sure what kind of face that is.

New to Blogging!

Hello! Welcome, this blog is going to be about me and my family and all the "craziness" that is part of our normal everyday lives. I guess I should start out by introducing everyone.

Hubby-A hardworking man so I can stay home with the kiddos. He is the "King of the Castle" BUT is treated more like the court jester...and he wouldn't have it any other way.

Emma-My first born is getting ready to turn 5. She is such a GIRL!!! She loves anything and everything that is Princess related. Her favorite colors are pink and purple. She tells me that she is going to marry the ice cream man so she can give out ice cream to kids when she is older.

Garrison-My first born son, he is the a cuddle monster. He loves to hug and snug. He is an electronics FREAK!!! He will find anything with buttons and figure out how it works. He has mastered the DVD player, microwave, and password protected computer.

Riley-Beat out being the first born son by a minute. But he is the more aggressive of the two. He is all boy. He loves Thomas and anything train related. He enjoys music and likes to dance. Riley went from being the runt of the family to the macho man!

Jackson-My little man. He is the sweetest boy in the world. He is a mama's boy and I LOVE IT!!! Although he is starting to watch and interact with his two brothers and he thinks they are a riot. He also LOVES his big sister. They play so well together.

Me-What can I say? I am a SAHM to four GREAT kids! I am back in school, again, and looking forward to learning some new things. I am also looking forward to adult interaction. I love Lauie Berkner and all...but I can only take so much Noggin!
