Snuggle time with my buddy

  Awe, I just love this little guy!  I enjoy my quiet moments I get with him at night after the older two are in bed.  (These pictures are from July, I'm just super behind on updating here.)

Hope I never have this again

You know what is just plain horrible? Mastitis. That's all I have to say.

Our garden

Here's what we picked today, it includes our first tomato of the season!

Again, from the mouth of a two yr. old

  Tonight while I was cuddling with Landon in his bed he said, "I love Jesus, he's my buddy." He had just asked me before that where Jesus is. I told him in heaven.
Landon is so cute and I'm really trying to be better and documenting things he says. I kept track really well of what Kay said when she was beginning to talk and I feel like I'm slacking with Landon. It's hard now that I have 3 kids. It means way less time to be documenting things like this but somehow I need to find the time!!!!

Our drive out of the mouth of a two yr. old

  As we were driving on the freeway today we drove by a motorcycle. The guy riding it was not wearing a helmet. Landon looked out his window and said, "He's not wearing a helmet, that's not safe." You are right Landon, it isn't safe! It was funny!

Roll over

Wyatt rolled from his tummy to his back today for the first time. Yay!!

Wyatt started cereal today

  I decided it was time to get our little guy started on some real food. Today is the day! Kayleigh was so excited! She's been wondering for the past couple weeks now when he can have baby food. I'm not sure why she is so concerned about it but she is.
  At first he wasn't sure and made some pretty funny faces but he kept trying and he ended up eating all that I'd mixed up. We'll try again tonight and hopefully in a few days he'll be downing it.
  I can't believe he is already old enough to start solids!

All 3 ready for bed

  With the summer months upon us I feel that we hardly ever have our kids in bed on time.  Oh well.  That's how it goes around here.  They are super cute and we are trying to adjust to all three.  I know, Wyatt is already 4 1/2 months old but it takes time people!

Happy Birthday Michael!

  Happy 31st Birthday to Michael!  He had a nice, fun day.  He got to go golfing in the morning with two of his friends.  Then he met me and the kids and a co-worker for lunch at California Pizza Kitchen.  He loves that restaurant but since I'm not a fan of pizza we don't go there well, hardly ever. 
In the afternoon he did work for a little while. 
  Upon arriving home he mowed and trimmed the lawn.  We grabbed a quick dinner from Subway and then got ready for his family to come over for some ice cream cake, presents and a few fireworks.  Michael loves has always loved fireworks.  This year when I asked him what he wanted to do for his birthday he said he wanted to do fireworks.  So I told him that could be one of his presents.  I wanted him to pick them out so I sent him to the firework place and he got a few.  We lit them off once it got a little darker on the night of his birthday. 
  I made him the ice cream cake he wanted, white cake and cookies and cream ice cream.  It turned out great!  Overall I think he had a very fun birthday!

Paying her tithing

  If Kayleigh does her jobs around the house during the week she gets $1 in allowance.  She loves to have money to spend it on things she's wanting.  (Just like her mom!)  When I pay her on Mondays I usually put her dollar in her bank and pull out a dime and put it in her tithing for her. 
  This past Monday I gave her $2 because I had forgotten to pay her for the week previous.  Kay took the money and went to her room and opened her tithing jar and put the $2 in it.  I told her that was her tithing jar and she should put that in her bank.  She responded with, "No, leave it in there I want to pay it to the people that need help, I feel so bad for them."  Melted my heart!  I about fell over in shock that she wanted to help others.  Obviously she's talking about fast offerings, but I wasn't going to burst her bubble at the moment. It was one of those great mommy moments when you know you've done something right.
