Bible School

In June, it was alot of playing in the pool, going to the park, and BIBLE SCHOOL! This was Trent's first time going to bible school and he loved it. It was during the morning so he kinda got a feel for what school is going to be like. Here is a picture of him and Madison as I was picking him up one day:-)




Must be May

Here I go trying to play catch-up! I think it is okay though because a few of the blogs that I follow have been slipping too during the summer! Summer just seems so busy and hectic. It is enough just getting the kids outside to play, bathed daily (since they get dirty outside), and dinner on the table.

May was when we planted the garden. We decided to put out 8 tomato plants, 4 cherry tomato plants, 2 jalapeno pepper plants, and 2 squash plants. Good thing we did 2 squash plants since only one came up. Our garden has done VERY well this year. Dan decided to do raised beds this time. Last year we just had a garden and it is was so dirty. I am very happy with the fact that there is less weeds.

I added a few pics of planting day, it was a family event. Taylor loves picking tomato's now too. Sometimes, they are green, but at least she is trying to help. LOL!

Happy Easter

The Easter bunny found us! The Easter bunny left his usual track of eggs to the baskets. Trent was up at 6:30, which was fine with me since I woke up at 6;-) He wanted to rush downstairs to see what was here! I had to wake Taylor up at 9:30!! She is such a good sleeper. The bunny was successful once again making the Stone babies happy.

All I wanted was ONE good picture of them together, but since I wanted that SO bad, it was unsuccessful. Dan did get some really sweet ones of them playing though. I have big hopes for the upcoming photo shoot that will be taking place in the next week or so........if it ever stops raining.

I hope everyone had a Happy Easter!!

Hunting!

Today...Easter egg hunt! We went to our local park and they had it set up into 4 age groups. Which was nice. Dan had to work so I was a little worried about getting them to the right spots, but they started at different times. So it worked out perfectly! Taylor really could have cared less, until, she realized there were chocolate kisses in the eggs. She did get a few, and that is all she really needed! Ha! Trent was super excited! He kept asking how many he could get, and I told him however many he wanted, he was so excited he was shaking! He ran around so fast he just didn't know which ones to get! LOL!!

Getting Messy

Not much going on this week. Just a few things the kids worked on;-) Trent has been wanting to either paint or play with play-doh all week, so Taylor did too. She only ate a few pieces, and her body still seems to be working fine at this point. Lot's of messes! But she loved it as well. I did go pick up Trent's registration packet for kindergarten and filled it out. I am preparing myself for May 13th. That is when I will take him back for a very small assessment test.



We are getting ready for Easter by decorating our eggs today, hopefully going to an egg hunt tomorrow, and dinner at nana and papaws on Sunday! (Taylor was not involved in the egg decorating due to the fact she LOVES to throw things.......ANYTHING) Trent was super excited when he pulled some of the eggs out of the colors to see that "magically" it had our names on them.



TAYLOR!!!!! Well, I did babysit on Thursday and I turned my back while fixing breakfast, Taylor decided to see just what was in that bowl. And let me tell you....raw eggs are not fun getting up off the floor. I had to laugh because by the time Lili and Ella left, Ella was calling Taylor by her first and middle name since that is how I had to address her all day!


Hope everyone has a fabulous EASTER!!!

Taylor's 18 month's

Well...where do I begin? Taylor is 18 month's old now! She has 12 teeth, she is running all over the place, still learning to jump, is talking so much, and did I mention.....into everything! She loves to wear necklaces, bracelets, and anyones shoes. She copies everything you do and say. She loves playing with others, and loves babies (or maybe just the fact that they have a baba and she doesn't). I took her for her 18 mo. well check today and she is right where she needs to be. She weighs 25 pounds, and is 33 inches tall. Of course she didn't like to looked at by the doc and she cried, and told the doctor "NO" and to "STOP". Let's hope she gets better with this and I don't have to lasso her like we do her brother. She also had a follow-up from her ear infection. It is gone of course with a round of antibiotics. This was her first ear infection and her first antibiotics so I think we are pretty lucky at this point.

Kite Flyin' Kinda Day

The wind has been crazy here this week. Not that I am complaining because it has been beautiful weather. Trent got a kite a few weeks ago and has been wanting to fly it since. So this week, was perfect.
