FHE?

So does this happen to you? I plan a lesson for FHE. A very short, sweet, to the point lesson. But for some reason it always ends up like this. Kids loud and obnoxious, jumping on and off the couches. Oh boy. Lindsay was in rare form this night. She pulled her pants up and was pretending to be a nerd. Love the back shot.

Of course it wouldn't be a typical FHE if it didn't end in crying. My husband (who is usually in charge of making the crying happen) decided it would be funny if he depants (sp?) her. So that was the end of our FHE. I love putting crying kids to bed:)

Valentine's Day

My valentine had to work today but we still had some fun. Randy came over and they drew with sidewalk chalk on our driveway and Daisy drew all the way up to our door. Lovely. We had pizza and decorated sugar cookies. We had tons of fun!

Me and my 3.

We had fun decorating cookies. This is Randy's. Looks just like him.

These are Daisy's people.

Lindsay made a whole family. They are so proud of them that I don't know if they'll eat them.

HaPpY VaLenTiNeS DaY!

The girls looked cute in their valentine shirts on Friday for school. They came home on a sugar high from all their parties. Cooper and I didn't want to miss out on any fun so we had a date and went to the mall.

Dad's Big Helper

Cooper loves to be in the garage with Jeff. Yesterday Jeff was putting the engine in his VW Squareback and Cooper just had to help. Jeff was so nice to let Cooper sit there and think he was a big help. Coop had a big smile on his face the whole time he kept telling me "help dad."

Jeff got the engine in all by himself yesterday and took Coop for a spin.

Daisy's Parties

I am so partied out over here. Good thing no one has a birthday until June! We had some of my family over on Sunday the 1st for Daisy's birthday dinner and cake and ice cream.Toree being a goof.

My dad is helping Daisy blow out here candles. His birthday is the 4th so he wanted in on the action too. I love Daisy's face. I don't think she thought that was funny.

Daisy taking a self portrait. There were like 3 others. Funny girl.

Daisy in her classroom. I took her Steve's Krazy Sub for lunch and Ding Dongs to share with her class.

Friday night she got to invite 2 friends to dinner and a movie. Daisy, Lexi, and Halle posing for the camera. They were so funny to listen to in the car. They were so hyper and excited.

We went to Somburro's for dinner and then we saw Hotel For Dogs after. They each had their stuffed animal dog and took it in the movies with them. They loved the movie even though Daisy cried alot. Halle said she cried a little and Lexi was like Why did you cry? They were so fun to hang out with. I am glad that Daisy has such good friends. She has known these 2 girls since she was 4 1/2. Thanks girls!

So Daisy milked this birthday all she could. Her parties seemed to last all week. I hope she enjoyed it cause it's a long year until her next birthday!

We'Re HaViNg A PaRtY!!!!!!!!

We're having a party today. And no it is not a Superbowl party. No today we are celebrating Daisy's birthday. 9 years ago today this girl was born at 10am. She weighed 6 lbs and 14 oz. and was the cutest thing ever. Becoming a mom for the first time was the greatest thing in the world. She was such a happy baby, a good eater, and the best sleeper. She made becoming parents super easy for us. We love you Daisy girl!!!!She was so excited to get an Ipod shuffle! Lime green- her favorite color right now.

Cooper was so into her opening presents. It was fun to watch him.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAISY GIRL! WE LOVE YOU! HAVE A GREAT DAY TODAY!
