Disney on Ice!!!

Brian and I thought it was time to take the babies to a show. So we went and saw Disney on Ice last weekend. All the Disney characters were there including the Incredibles!! It was so cute to see their little faces..Priceless! Aunt Dee and Cousins Steven and Kristina were with us too. Daddy decided to buy some cotton candy which the kids LOVED! Little did we know before buying it - it would cost $10!!! Well, it came with the Incredibles son Dash - his mask, which we all tried on....haha!

New shoes

Daddy and Ava came home from their shopping trip with new shoes for everyone!!!

Mommy's break

Daddy gave Mommy a night out with the girls....he watched the kids at the campsite by himself overnight! This man has some guts!!! Thanks for the great time girls!!! Alisa, Karen, Jodie, Andrea, Casey and I...

Camping - Coggon

We've been doing a lot of camping since getting our 5th wheel. The babies just LOVE CAMPING! As you can see they entertain themselves by transferring the gravel from bucket to bucket to bucket. And using the shovels. Getting into the cooler and sneaking ice chips....and, trying to help daddy hook up the outdoor tv to watch the Iowa Game...

Monkeys

Is that a monkey on your back or are you just happy to see me? I got the kids these backpacks (a/k/a leashes) and Brian had a FIT! My kids are NOT wearing those! Well, I have only had them wear them once so far and that was to walk around our block. I will say walking three kids is harder than walking 3 dogs.

Mornings

Since moving the kids into toddler beds the boys seem to have a hard time staying in their beds....Ava does pretty good....but here is what we saw one morning...(Skyler in red and Connor in blue).

Time flies....

So it has been awhile since posting again....we have been busy, busy, busy. We've had a few weddings, then the firefighter convention, and camping...friends from out of town visiting....it's been so much fun but the time just gets away from you...

Daddy's trip to Canada

Here are some pictures of Daddy on his trip to Canada with the boys!

First night in new beds

This is what the kids looked like in the morning. Skyler is on the floor but Ava and Connor did pretty well.

Corn on the cob

It is so funny to watch them eat corn on the cob. They love it.....a patch ate here a patch ate there. haha!

Toddler Beds

We now have big kids!!! We switched the kids into toddler beds about 2 weeks ago because they were crawling out of their cribs and it was getting really dangerous. A little freaked out at first as we didn't know how they'd react but they're doing FAMTASTIC! When you say time for night-night or nap time they'll run in and lay down. As you can see from the pictures Skyler wanted to help daddy.
