JUNE Already???

So May was just a crazy busy month. I am too tired and impatient to pull out any pics but I want to post some of the FUN things that have happened this month.

Crew Russell Evans was born on May 23rd..Julee's little boy...darling little red head who has made his mom's life and she is happy as can be.

Cali, Kyson, and Kael all had their pacifiers taken away. Cali's have been gone except for nighttime and naps since she was 18 months but it turns out she doesn't know how to get to sleep without them. SO pure misery for her and all of us for a week and a half and she has finally forgotten about them..but she still struggles with naps and I sure miss those awesome easy naps! I thought that I wasn't going to make the same mistake twice and we weren't sleeping anyway so after 2 days I took the boys' away too...well they are champs...didn't even phase them...they actually sleep better.

Kyson is crawling...ahhhh. I am trying my best to keep Kael from learning. Seriously Cali opens doors and unlocks deadbolts and Kyson crawls all over the house and pulls himself up to standing only to fall and get hurt half the time! Complete Craziness with one more still to learn!

I weaned my boys..this was such a hard decision for me. I was getting bit at least 5 times every feeding and was just miserable but I really wanted to go further but I have this wierd freedom now...although I am sick seriously sick at the cost of formula..how can people afford to feed babies for a year at this rate? My body doesn't know what to do...I've been nursing or pregnant for over 3 years.

YARD is FINISHED!!!YAH! well all the big stuff...we still need to fill our planters but the big stuff is done....thanks to all who helped...we love ya!

BOYS HAVE MULLET HAWKS! I have to get some pics but their dad is in trouble..haha.

Cali is showing some improvement as far as obedience is concerned...of course she is still a strong-willed 2 y/o and has a ways to go but on a positive note she is not getting worse! Chad and I love to reminesce each night about the cute things each of our kids did that day...that keeps our sanity!

Boston Trip!

So Chad was a little spoiled this past week. He took a few of his clients to Boston and went to a Red Sox game. He claims to be a real fan but if you ask me he is just an anti-Yankee fan and Red Sox are the obvious choice...Anyway, he was spoiled and had a blast. They took his company's private Jet and he ate like a King. Well, he also forgot his camera. We are glad that he had fun, I was jealous but we missed him and are glad he's home...especially to help me with the nighttime routines!

SPRINKLERS!!!!

Chad, and family started putting in our sprinklers today. It was a bit more of a project than we imagined but now we are past half way! Thanks to Matt, Dad, Trent, Travis, Beau, and D.J. for your help! Oh and don't forget Cali she walked around giving the screw driver and pipe to whomever needed it!!My little tomboy still loves to get dirty and play in the dirt but her inner princess is coming out that she now prefers to play in the dirt in a dress! Where does she get it?
Today Cali came and gave me a big hug while I was changing the boys, and I said, "Thank you Cali, do you love your mama?" she said, "No, I love daddy!" That's my girl...she has good taste!
Cali and Uncle Trent making funny faces. She has finally warmed up to Trent and Travis, since they were on missions when she was born and got back 7 months ago.
