Bike riding fun!

Over the weekend, Josh and I got Lindsey a small trike. She is too small for Nathan's old tricycle, and so we needed to get something smaller, luckily, we were able to find a great deal on one at a garage sale, woo hoo!! She is having a blast riding bikes with Nathan now, she goes a lot slower then him still, but hey, its progress :  )
Maybe as she gets better, it wont take us an hour to get to the end of the street, LOL!!

Gotta love the neighborhood cat

Several days....all in one!



So, since I havent blogged since last week, I have several pics to post. I decided it would be the perfect day to do a "random pic" day!! Hopefully this will get me all caught up, and on track!! We all had a wonderful weekend, anniversary, and start of our week!!! Josh and I celebrated our anniversary by going on a four mile mountain hike and then shopping/out to dinner, while my parents watched the kids, we all had a wonderful time!!!
Hope everyone else is off to a great week!!!

Five year anniversary!

Today, Josh and I celebrate five years of marriage. I cant believe how fast these years have gone already. I remember our wedding day like it was yesterday. Five years and three kids later, I love him more and more!!!

To celebrate, tomorrow my parents are watching the kids (all of them) for for the entire day/night....amazing Grammy and Pop Pop!!! Josh and I are going to finally finish our hike up one of the mountains here, and then spend the day shopping, relaxing, going out to eat, and most of all...just enjoying each other's company!!!

Thank you Josh for a wonderful first five years, I cant wait to spend the next 5, 10, 15, 20, etc years with you!! I love you with all my heart!!

First day of Summer!

Yesterday was the first official day of summer and it was beautiful weather. It was about 78 and blue skies/sunny. We spent majority of the day outside and had so much fun! We have been having so much fun with park playdates, walks, water table fun, riding bikes, etc. Definitely feels nice to spend time outside and not be locked up inside!!!

Park Play time!

I know I am a few days behind....I dont know why it is so hard this week to blog, but I will play catch up, I promise!!!

Last week, Thursday and Friday, we went to the park and had so much fun! On Thursday, the kids played with their friend and had a great time. On Friday, we met some new friends at the park and it was great getting out, meeting new buddies, and enjoying the weather! Needless to say, the kids took awesome naps that day, making it an even better day then it already was, woo hoo!!!!

Here are some random pics from the park! I have more pics from earlier in the week that I will try to get around to "blogging", but now its time to go off and celebrate Fathers day. My dad and Josh took off early this morning to go golfing, and then we are going to be having a yummy lunch once they get home (turkey burgers, fresh pasta salad, fruit salad, and then a chocolate eclair cake). I will be sure to take pics and blog about that yummy meal next!!!

Happy Fathers day to all the wonderful dads out there!!!! :  )

I will be posting pics as it moves along. Below are a few pics of the house, taken over a week ago, so of course...its much further along now....will post more this weekend if I can get over there without workers in my way :  )

Currently the roof, siding, insulation, and drywall are done...

An artist, cry-baby, and more!

I know I havent "blogged" in a few days, so I decided to use some pics from last week, since they got "lost" and now found!!

Lindsey was my little artist last week. She wanted to use the markers (washable of course) and color pictures! She literally spent over an hour at her easel coloring pictures for random people....quite cute!
While Lindsey was coloring, I decided to feed Caleb some food. He was SO moody about it, everytime he saw the spoon and food, he would be happy....then I would "hide" it, and he would cry....guess he was really enjoying that food!!

Anyhow, here are some random pics from last week! Hopefully I remember to snap some this week, so far I am not doing too good!!

My little artist!

Enjoying their snack of celery, carrots, and tomatoes!

Mad, fussy baby because he doesnt see his food

We got us....a cowboy dance party!

While I was gone this evening; daddy, Nathan, and Lindsey had a cowboy dance party. What is that you ask? Well, its when you blast country music, have the kids wear a cowboy hat, and dance on the counter!! Nathan and Lindsey thoroughly enjoyed their party with daddy, and mommy enjoyed her "no kids" time!!!

This week hasnt had too much activity with the weather being somewhat rainy and just.....blah.....but we have been able to find monsters, build forts, get rid of aliens, play games, and of course, have dance parties!!!

Sun Sun Come this way....dont go away for another day!!

Monday was beautiful weather, not too hot, not too cold. So, like I mentioned before, us Seattle people RUN outside to get our vitamin D while we can!

When the kids woke up from their 2 HOUR NAPS (I thoroughly enjoyed that 2 hours!!), we went outside to play! We spent about three hours outside and Nathan even managed to get a minor sunburn through the SPF 75 I put on him, oops!!

Nathan coloring a picture

We found two snails, one huge one and one baby. Nathan and I are pointing to them,
poor baby snail didnt make it, Nathan said it was being bad (so he punished it, oops!)

Caleb just chilling out in the stroller

Lindsey enjoying her yummy popsicle, she ended up wearing most of it!

All in all, it was a wonderful day outside! Hopefully this weather stays and we can continue playing outside!!
