My Poor Baby

Got his first fat lip today....

One Week Until The Renewal!

My Brother and SIL are going to be renewing their vows November 7th so today we rehearsed for the big day and had brunch. I just took a few pictures of our crazy family!

Little guy slept through the whole rehersal.

Seany Poo

Brenna Boo

Sebastian.... Always a happy little guy!

Jake looking at the awesome view.

Catching up with each other....

Yep, that's my Sister! Proud too!

and YES that's my little brother... The one with the green teeth! I SO dare Sean to wear the teeth during the ceremony!

Sisters!

The Carving Of The Pumpkin

Or so I thought! The kids and I have been waiting for daddy to have an early night so that we could carve this baby... Let me just say that I am beginning to really hate basketball season!

Getting ready to start!

This is the face that I make when Jake starts to whine "I don't want to take a picture and smile"..

The worst part!

Jake kept saying this is disgusting and didn't want anything to do with the pumpkin!

His face of disgust!

Yep.... Here is daddy watching the game. No help at all.

I just let Brenna do what see does best. Color!

The finished product... Isn't it pretty!

Dinner Time In Our House.....

is NON existent! I make dinner every night. The kids and I sit down to dinner every night (Wes hardly ever gets home in time for dinner). Jake is the first person to get up from the table every night. Every night I wish I still had the highchair because he will not sit down to eat dinner. Every night either Brenna or Jake will say " I don't like this" and every night I say "can you at least please try it?" Then every night the kids say "we're done" and every night I say "OK get in the bath." Then every night I get their jammie's on and brush their teeth then Wes will come home and I warm up his dinner. Every night Brenna and Jake go up to him and tell him that they are hungry. Every night Wes feeds them (sometimes milk and cookies) despite the fact that they didn't touch their dinner and I brushed their teeth.

Tonight I told Brenna that I always (a little white lie never hurt anybody!) ate what my mommy and daddy made for me because they worked really hard to make a meal for me and I didn't want to hurt their feelings. Brenna looked at me and said with that little head nod of hers "Well if you made what we liked we would eat it!" Well excuse me for living! Or at least trying to be a good mom! I asked what she would prefer I made and she said sandwiches, letter noodles and straight noodles NOT the curly ones. What's a mom to do? This every night thing is getting old!

Rocking Out Thursday!!

Wednesday Wonders

I wonder if I was this creative when I was four.... Brenna is ALWAYS drawing or coloring something. This morning she brought this to me with a huge proud smile and said "Mom look! this is Rapunzel! I made her hair really long so that you would be able to tell who it was!" Then Brenna told me what next to Rapunzel and I almost died laughing...... It's a restroom for princesses! Puffy sleeves and all!! Pretty darn good if you ask me!

Disneyland October 2009

Always fun going to the happiest place on earth!!!

Me and the cuties.....

This is the cutest little hat on the cutest little girl!

Hanging out waiting for the park to open.

This picture has no rhyme or reason just it's funny how both Brenna and Jake are standing exactly the same =)

What's that you say? We are missing a little boy?

Yep! Jake decided to be a stinker!

I LOVE how Brenna is always a little mommy. She is always taking care of anyone who is smaller than her =)

Hugging brother while holding Lauren's hand!

Still holding Lauren's hand....

The most awesome carved pumpkins!

Couldn't forget the fruit mustache!

While Brenna was playing in the water....

Jake was napping.....

I can't think of anything better than watching my kids light up with their little smiles!
