Random Tidbits

So I have been a blog slacker lately. February was a very busy month you know that you have been busy when you down load your camera and you have over 400 pictures. Ekk! I know....Well here are some random tidbits that we have been up to in the last little while but first I have to through out one of those "Kids say the darnedest things!" moments.



The other day I was going somewhere with Avery when she said to me "Mom, guess what my friend Brianne told me what little girls and boys are made of." The first thought that popped into my head was crap! You just never know what other kids are going to teach your kids and why, why, why can I not protect them from it all. Anyway I responded with "What did she tell you" She went on to say "Boys are made out of snakes and snails and puppy dog tails and Girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice." I breathed a sigh of relief she then said " But do you want to know what I told her?" Of course again I held my breath waiting for her answer she then replied " I told her she was wrong we are made out of DNA, duh!" She is seriously a crack up! Anyway enjoy the pics there is a lot and kind of random. Strap in it is a long one.

Alyssa has been taking mini cheer classes this year. She has really liked it and has been able to preform at some of the high school basketball games. Her season just ended, this is a picture of her after her last class where she received a medal and a certificate passing off everything for this year. We are so proud of her. GO-FIGHT-WIN!

Here is a picture of my little trouble maker standing in the dog food bowl. Such a silly baby.

Here are some pics of my girls making snow angels one day after it snowed. They were having great time playing outside until all the sudden I hear Alyssa come in and say in a some what panicked voice that Avery is bleeding. I came around the corner and she was not just bleeding she was gushing. It looked like a faucet was running that is how much she was bleeding and it was EVERYWHERE! I didn't recognize her or her coat. I was sure that something was seriously wrong...luckily it just turned out to be a really bad bloody nose. Some words of advice do not pull your beanie down and run around so you can't see....you could accidentally run into a fence post.

How great it must be to fall asleep anytime, anywhere. I was making making dinner and when I looked over Aidan was out. Poor Kid!

This is what happens when you are 8 and you get lippy with your mom! Alyssa was teasing me about something so I guess I was feeling slightly more spunky than usual and got her with a cupcake. Opps! Just for the record she loved every minute of it.

Aidan at the Birthday party we held for him and my father-in-law. Cupcakes are so yummy!


Aidan on his actual birthday riding the noisy little gift he got for his Birthday. THANKS MOM!!

I noticed that I didn't post pictures of the birthday cakes. Here they are in all their yumminess. They turned out so cute and Kami and I didn't even coordinate and they ended up looking a lot of like. I guess great minds think a like.
