Spring has Sprung

Those of you may or may not know, but I do not have a green thumb. I have attempted to grow house plants, but they always end up dying. Its a crazy cycle, I really love flowers, but I guess it is just easy to buy the bouquet and enjoy it for a few days. Although....we have some plants outside and the first year I put sunflowers out there, it was so beautiful! I also planted some bulbs, gladioloas and lillies...well they have been coming back (this is the 2nd year) and here is a picture of the first bloom from my lily....There is also 3 buds on one stem that should bloom in the next day or so, I am excited! I also have another bud in another pot that is ready as well...have to enjoy these for a few days, it so hot this week and they probably will not last too long...

They sure are growing up

Each day these kids just facinate me. They have just grown up over night I swear! A friend of mine just told me the other day, "what happened to that little baby that I remember, Hayden looks so grown up" She is wanting to talk more and just babbles and carries a conversation with herself. It cracks me up... here is a funny photo from Costco the other day...



We got an outdoor play thingy, the kids LOVE THIS THING! We got a deal from a lady on craigslist...here is Kaden



and Hayden


They love to play outside :)

An update! OMG

Yes yes it has been a while...just trying to keep up on things is so hard sometimes! Well lets see here...we had the kids Dr appt last week and everything is great. Hayden is becoming a little jibberjabber mouth. She just babbles, it is the cutest thing. At times I swear she is saying "bear" or even "bubba" I am sure that she will be talking up a storm in no time...

Yesterday Nick took the kids to Boulder City to visit grandpa and grandma, they had a great time. The kids LOVE to be outside, if they could play outside all day they would. I am continuously having to make sure that both kids are inside as Kaden loves to venture out the doggy door as well (he is actually worse than she was).

Nick sent this picture to me yesterday and I think it is just a great picture, sure it is a little windy, but I just cannot believe how big my babies are getting!



My task for tonight (after I finish this post) is to get the numbers all ready so I can send the stuff to my tax man and get that done and out of the way. Yes each year I say I am going to get it done sooner, but that doesnt happen :( I will work harder next year!

So that is all for now, i will do better and keeping this updated...

Splish Splash we love taking a BATH!

Ok so I am not sure if you are all aware, but my kids are seriously BATH MANIACS! If they hear the water running in the bathtub, they will seriously freak out and cry. They just want in the dang tub! Tbere were times where I went into the bathroom just to get some stuff out of the cabinet and they both come in there and climbed in the tub, yes climbed! Water or no water, they just want to play! So of course if we are filling the tub, the door needs to stay SHUT or we will have some wet kids in a minute, clothes or no clothes...Enjoy the pictures and the crazy hairdo's!

We love kitties, or shall I say witties :)

Here is a picture and a video of Hayden and Kaden with Mickey (Aunt Joan's cat) I was so suprised that Mickey just sat there and let them pet him...I was amazed...oh and the kids are quite facinated with "Cat Toys" LOL

Holiday Weekend...

Well we ended up celebrating our Valentines Day on Friday the 13th, Laurie came over to watch the munchkins and Nick and I really didnt know exactly what we wanted to do, so we just went with the flow :) We ended up deciding to go to the movies and since we didnt know what was playing, we opted for fast food, so we headed over to In N Out, havent had that in a long time and then went to the movies...We ended up watching "The Uninvited" yes it is a scary movie, but it was SOOOOOO good! Of course I would have loved to see Friday the 13th, but it was sold out and of course there were LOTS of teenagers there (they were obnoxious enough in our theater...

On Saturday we ended up running errands and getting our grocery shopping done. Tarin came along with us and we just had a fun time... :)

Sunday I went to my brothers fiances baby shower, they are having a little boy he is due in a few weeks. She got lots of neat stuff, then I headed out early to go over to the Minters for a BBQ...that was a lot of fun and we had YUMMY tri-tip...It is always nice to visit with family :)

Now I am back to work, darn! It is a holiday (presidents day) we dont get paid time and a half for this day, but hey that is ok, at least I am working and that is all that matters :)

All packed up ready to go, just need postage

Hayden and Kaden were just fasinated with the pampers wipe box that they decided to play in it. Nick put them in here and sent the picture. It is just the perfect size, amazing how you spend money on toys and all they want to play with is the box? SILLY
