the "Staples"

On September 14th Trevor was "spinning" in the living room,

lost his balance and hit his head on the piano bench. The poor

guy lost so much blood and the color to his face was GONE!

I wasn't sure if the gash was enough to take him to the doctor,

but I was really worried about a concussion. But obviously it was

big enough to be stapled.

He only had them in a few days, but he is still sensitive and there

is a little bit of a bump. I forgot about it this morning when I was

rushing to comb his hair and get him off to school. He's a strong man though

and we were very proud of the way he acted towards the entire even.

and he's 2!!

I always for get blogger puts the pictures in a different order.

So I guess we'll start with big mans gifts first.

He had a great party with all kinds of family, we did it out in the

front yard and all the kids had fun running around and

playing with our outside bikes, cars and slide.

This little monkey would blow the candles out as soon as

Shaun would get one lit. But we did finally get to sing to him

than blow them out.

Taylor and Trevor Start school

Poor Eli has been going a little nuts being home alone with mommy!!

So here is his new entertainment, he is learning a lot, colors, shapes, and numbers.

We're working towards the alphabet soon.

Taylor is in the 2nd grade now! Where did our lives go?

I can't believe we have a kid that old, she'll be 8 in

November. Taylor has grown into an excellent reader and artist

she plays the piano and can't wait to start the simplified Hymns.

Mr. Trevor is in Preschool again this year, poor kid has a late b-day

but he is enjoying his new school with the red door:)

He too is learning a little bit of reading, and loves "centers"

where they play with interactive toys and computers. I'm very glad

we found a school that teaches with technology, that is one thing

that we never learned when we were his age.

Eli at 21 months

I need to work on the lighting, but I love this picture of

little "E", I think its his eyes.

Summer....finally!

The kids wanted to run through the sprinklers today.

I didn't think they'd get to went in their clothes, but

I was wrong. They had soooo much fun playing together, and

spraying each other with the hose.

TIME OF THEIR LIFES!!

This little guy has every expression in the book!! He cracks me up!

Eli on the slide, he can climb up there by himself now,

What we have been up to....

I have been looking for a hutch to put in the house, but didn't want a fancy style.

I found this at a second hand store in Rigby, we have 4 of them here now, and I have found

a lot of fun stuff, to bad I don't have more money to spend.

I plan on putting our Africa stuff Shaun's parents brought home for us in it.

This was from one of the other 2nd hand stores, the lady had picture frames in it,

I thought it would look good with my little flower pots the kids planted.

Maybe for winter we'll bring it in and put Christmas stuff in it.

My little brother graduated from High School in May. Can't believe he'll

be on a mission this winter!

My naked table dancer!! I always find him in bed naked, we have to pin his

pj's shut.
