Busy, Busy...

How can I be SO busy and still feel like we don't do anything....
And I am terrible at taking pictures...it comes in waves- I think these are the only 4 pictures I've taken in the last 2 weeks!

So, in conclusion we like to pretend we are Batman...and...


since it was sunny ONE day last week so we had to Bust out the Sunglasses and sit in our lawn chair and soak it up!


I am just SURE she is going to be a supermodel when she grows up- just like her Auntie Emma!

Tacoma Children's Museum

Last week we had a Field trip for 'Mommy school" we went to the Tacoma Children's Museum.... They just moved to a new location and it is MUCH better than the old one- it was really fun and had lots of interactive things for the kids to do....

We had 7 kids in our group and the way it was set up it wasn't hard to keep track of all the kids with 2 adults....it took us about an hour to go through and was a great way to spend a morning!

The Water fountain was my favorite part- way fun and lots of things to play with and they had smocks to keep the kids dry-mostly!

And it's now a "Pay as you will" program.....so you pay what you can afford!

The kids loved it!

After the Museum we had a picnic in the back of the van- because it was Super windy!

Well Child Check-up!

Last week (since we didn't have school) we had our annual well child Check up....So they checked stuff like, weight,sight, hearing.....Unfortunately it was also time for Shots.... Mallory got the worst of it! She got 3 shots, got her Iron checked (finger pricked) and had to give blood too....And they both had to pee in a cup- it was a rough doctors appointment!

So RIGHT after we RAN to go get Ice cream, Ice cream makes everything better- we had a coupon from Mallory's birthday for Cold stone!

Going to the doctor sucks...but the good news is everyone is Healthy and Growing GREAT!

All About Andrew!

I was looking at my blog a few days ago and realized that it's a little Mallory heavy- so here is an update on our boy, Andrew!!
We Just Signed him up for Baseball (he is REALLY excited) and we are selling Raffle tickets ($1 each) to support his baseball league! 1st Prize is $1,000.00 2nd- $750.00 3rd-$500 4th- $250....let us know if you would like to purchase one!


And we got his size 6T clothes out.....he is growing like crazy!
He is a great helper around the house and has been becoming more and more self-reliant! At Preschool they just started talking about going into kindergarten next year and he is WAY excited to be in Kindergarten!

Prima Ballerina...

Mallory is in Ballet again....and this year she is REALLY excited about it.... Last year she mostly just watched the teacher and the other girls and SOMETIMES would do some of the stuff- this year she is following ALL the instructions and is starting to look like a real ballerina!

And we have a friend from church in our class too- which makes everything extra fun!


I really like her teacher- she is really high energy and keeps it one their level....Audrey and Clara have the same teacher (in an older class) and she really steps it up for the older girls....I hope we can take some more classes with her!

You've had a Birthday, Shout Hooray!

Mallory has been celebrating all week..... On Friday we brought Cup-cakes to her class at school! Then Sunday we had Cake, Ice cream and Presents at Granny and Grandpa's house! She got "BIG" money from Grandpa and dress up stuff! A singing toothbrush, and lots of jewelry made her 4 year old world perfectly enchanted!

Lots of fun presents and got to be the princess of the party!

Then on Tuesday we woke up and had Pink sprinkle Pancakes, painted her nails, and watched some special birthday movies!

Then I took Mallory out on a Special Mommy-Mallory Lunch Birthday date! We went to Wendy's and had chicken nuggets and french fries...then we went to BJ's and had a Pazookie for dessert!

And we went to the Bank and she filled out her OWN deposit slip to put her birthday money into her account- she was SO excited!

Then Tuesday night we went to the Swifts and had Cake and Ice cream!!
And guess what else???


More presents- she is such a Spoiled lucky duck! More dress up stuff (which she LOVES) and some coloring stuff!


Thank you to everyone who made her days so happy!
