Check out our pictures!

We have been back from Destin FL for over a week now and still no post....until NOW!! The slideshow of pics is on the right of the blog page. I was experimenting with this so I didn't pick and choose the pics I wanted for the blog. Sorry...you are going to have to flip through all of them.
Trenton was at such a good age for the beach this year. The beach was like a giant sandbox for him. He like the ocean for a couple of days. He would sit on Matt's lap and let the waves come up in his lap. Well, the tide was a little high and rough that day and after a wave knocked him over out of dad's lap, that was the end of that. He started yelling "I go HOME!"
The kiddie pool was a big hit and the highlight of Trenton's vacation. This is where he wanted to be most of the time. Lots of kids to play with and lots of toys to steal. Although I have to say Trenton has become quite the sharer lately. He is starting to catch on to things.
May is the best month for NO RAIN in FL--go figure...No rain but one odd chilly day. Really windy and about 70 (so the weather man said), felt at least 65 with the wind. We donned clothes for the beach that day and did the outlet shopping (the got a Crew Cuts -JCrew for kids!!!!) and played at The Track. We learned that Trenton DID NOT like the caged ferris wheel (looks like a zipper for kids) Loved everything else though.
We got to spend time with Aunt Jo, Uncle Bill, Aunt Wendy, Aunt Katy, and Uncle Ben, and little cousin Mason. It was great seeing you guys! Uncle Bill took the kids out for a little spin on his HUGE fishing boat. Trenton thought that was pretty awesome!!
Trenton also got his first bike ride. We rented bikes to ride around Baytowne one afternoon. Trenton looked so cute on the back of Daddy's bike with his little helmet on. He loves bikes now!
Can't wait to go back!!

Slip N Slide!!!

Thought I would post this video before church (I actually have time!) I'll post pics of mothers day later. Trenton got this slip n slide from PePaw Roby for his birthday. Matt busted it out last Sun (I think) Whoa!! It was a hit! Even got me out there, it was freezing!! Trenton doesn't mind the cold one bit!! Looking forward to the hot summer days..

Birthday Weekend!!

Last weekend, we celebrated Trenton's 2nd bday (Sat) and Reagan's 4th bday (may16). It was an action packed weekend with lots of family fun! We had a full house and on top of that, Michelle and I had a huge garage sale Sat. morning. I found out my house has a running path through the kitchen and around through the hall.

I can't believe Trenton is 2. He is so much fun and such a huge handful at the same time. He wants to do EVERYTHING by himself (NOOO! I do it!!) And my favorite pharases: "I did it!" "I sorry" (he has to say that one a lot) and "Wuv you"

Here are some pics

Mama, Daddy, and Little Man

Trenton managed to eat his cake and ice cream without one mess on his shirt, what a difference from last year.

How stinking cute is Tyler!!!!???

Birthday boy giving us a "CHEESE!!"

Cam showing Trenton how to drive his new jeep. Trenton's face was priceless when he saw that Jeep. He wants to sit and listen to the radio in the garage ALL THE TIME.

Don't miss the next post....

Trenton's Monkey Party

Trenton had a second bday party on Sun (never again). It was originally planned to be at The Little Gym in Rogers with about 10 kids, but slowly throught the week the calls started coming in reporting sick kids, out of town kids, and busy kids. With the party dwindled to 3 kids, we decided to cancel The Little Gym last minute and have the party at our house....again.

It was very relaxed and fun. Jack and Avery came as well as Miss Lilly. Trenton got lots of beach toys (leaving in 1 week!!) so he should be set for the sand!!

By the way....the scab on his nose is from trying to make the Tonka truck into a skateboard.

Jackson's Bday Weekend

I know I stink at posting lately, I have a million excuses really but what it boils down to is I'm lazy. I'm going to have a big weekend this weekend to post because tomrrow by baby turns 2!! So here I am catching up, be sure to keep scrolling after this post, there is one more.

Michelle and the kiddos came last minute last weekend (yeah!) We balanced three children and shopping very well. All three kids napped at the same time everyday so we could escape one at a time to fully maximize shopping time alone. The best part of the weekend was Jackson's bday party. He is 10 days older than Trenton. They are going to be best buds I know. Here are some pics...

Trenton and Jack on the tractors. They fought over the Deere!! It was a John Deere party so maybe that's why..

Trenton wearing on of Jack's presents. Trenton kindly took it from him (bad 2 year old!) and tried it out.

Rea Rea (as Trenton calls her) and T playing on Jack's new swingset.

Trenton trying to butt in on Jack's birthday moment. Jack got a smash cake again this year because it didn't go over too well last year. He loved it this year (so did my little piggie). Better watch out, Jack's coming to your party to crash it like you did his!

T and Kyle (Jack's dad) taking it all in. Happy Birthday Jackson!!

Farm Friends

Here are some pics of last week of us at 'Farm Friends' at the UofA farmgrounds. What boy/small child does not like the smell of pigs, dirt, and fresh manure. Trenton was a little startled by the rooster who cawed his rooster song about every minute. He petted some bunnies and a baby goat (is this the typical story of a child at a petting zoo or what) Fun times..

Trenton's not taking his eyes off that horse, he DID NOT want to pet his nose!

This horse is much nicer, just my size!!
