Lazy lazy days....

I sometimes dread the days of summer- I don't know what to do to entertain the kiddies....but I love having no schedule and the occasional sleep in day... My kids love to sleep in the same room togehter - it's like a "sleepover" and since I don't let my kids do real sleep overs it's a good substitute. Dallin liked to join in as well - he climbed out of his crib to join the crowd and crashed. Since these were taken - he now has a "crib tent" and is stuck in his crib until I decide to get him out. It's good really, because he likes to get into everything. Last night they all slept in the same room and Hunter let Gwendalin sleep in his bed - that left him with no where to sleep. I went in to check them and you can see that he found a nice cozy spot right a top his chest of drawers. I laughed so hard - took a few pictures and put him in Gwendalin's bed. Such a cute boy! Anyway, we got a small swimming pool and the kids filled it up and put it beneath the slide for an afternoon of sheer pleasure. It's nice to have them home! A good break from routine....now ask me in a few months how I feel about it and I might be singing a different song. :)

Grandmas and Grandpas were here, oh my!

Larry and Judy were able to come for Hunter's baptism. I got lots of cute pictures of the kids with them. They always love their visits and hate it when they have to go. In fact, Gwendalin woke up the morning they left and just cried. It was a fun visit though, the kids put on skits and concerts for us and played and played. There's not much better than hanging out with family!

This is the Texas.

This is a little Texas. He spends some of his time laying on his favorite spot on the couch watching cartoons. Mostly he's playing outside, but if he isn't, we'll find him here. There are also a few pictures of the little guy asleep in the stroller on a "no nap" day when he didn't last through the walk.

A Dally Post

This little Doodle could be nicknamed "Destroyer." He is constantly writing on my walls with pens and markers, he pulls toilet paper off the rolls, he has now learned how to ride the trike wich means I have to be super fast to catch him if he escapes outside so he can't get away. Funny thing is - he smiles in everything he does! Love love this little kid!

So this little guy is crazy! He's constatnly into everything under the sun and even when he's in trouble he's smiling. I love this little guy!

Hunter's Baptism

Hunter got baptised on Saturday! Everything was perfect...this was likely due to his wanting to practice how to do it constantly so he didn't mess up. He was so cute. We had a good turn out of support. Afterwards we had a great lunch with family and friends. I owe a huge thanks to my mother in law and parents for helping me get all the food ready! I way overbought, but it's always better to have more than not enough!
