Princess party


Mckenzie had a princess tea party with her friends for an early birthday party.  She'll turn 4 years old on July 10th.  She got a new dress and a new crown.  Both of which she's worn everyday since.  



For her party they ate PB&H, fruit, and drank lemonade.  We sang Mckenzie Happy Birthday and ate sprinkle cookies and pink marshmallows.  Then they water color painted princess pictures.  Oh and they danced to princess songs.  Of course!

                 



This is Mckenzie's face when we were singing to her, she was a little shy!

Dance party!

Friends!


They are so cute.





For Makayla's 7th birthday we went to Roaring Springs with the Crawfords.   It was a super fun day going on lots of rides with Channing.  He is fearless even on the big rides! Mckenzie loved playing in the kids area. 


Date afternoon with Channing.  He rode his scooter and skateboard at the skatepark.  Then we got shakes at Sonic.  They mixed up our order and gave us a medium size instead of a mini size.  Channing was thrilled!


A few days ago the weather was oddly cool in the afternoon and we went to the park.  As a treat I let the kids get a snow cone.  We love summer!

My reality check

Remember how in my last few posts I talked about how we were teaching Channing to put himself back to sleep by letting him cry it out?  Since Channing has been sick for over a week that has all gone down the drain....  The poor kid is so congested all the time.  When we wakes up at night he usually will not take his binky and fall back asleep.  Instead he needs his nose suctioned, which usually requires Justin holding Channing's head still or it's impossible.  And lately he will not go back to sleep at all until he's fed again.  Last night it was every 3 hours.  I don't know if it's because his throat hurts or he just wants to be held.  Whatever the reason, nights have been a little rough around here.  Oh, and his naps during the day have been pretty bad.  Crying a lot before falling asleep and then only sleeping for 20 or 30 minutes.  Motherhood is definitely a 24/7 job.  With no lunch breaks.  And get this!  Channin...

Happy Halloween!

I wanted to do a quick Halloween post so I won't ever forget how adorable Channing was.  He was a scarecrow this Halloween.  We used a pair of his overalls and I sewed on a few patches of material and then we stuffed his pockets with straw.  The paint on the nose thing didn't work so well...he rubbed it off the first time around.  Our ward did a trunk-or-treat in the parking lot.  Channing was a little skeptical about it all when we first started.  But he quickly got the hang of walking up to people, grabbing candy, and putting it in his bucket.  Someone gave him a sucker and he immediately had to have it!  At least he's easy to please!  Such a friendly scarecrow...had to say bye to the trick-or-treaters as they left.

Almost 3 Years Old

Isaac will be turning 3 years old in a few weeks.  This child is entertaining, friendly, funny, stubborn, sneaky, demanding, curious, silly, feisty, and talkative. He reminds me of my grandpa, Papa K.  Before Papa K's stroke he would constantly find random people to talk to.  I remember on a trip to Europe with Papa K, Dede, my mom, and Carrie we met lots of new people.  And at every possible opportunity Papa K would try and talk to these people.  Isaac seems to have inherited this liking for talking to complete strangers. Today on a walk around the pond Isaac spotted kids/teenagers fishing.  Naturally he rode his strider bike right up to them, hopped off his bike, and got right into a conversation.  He rambled on and on about who knows what until we had to make him keep riding. He also likes to yell, "stop! Hey stop!" at random strangers to get them to talk to him.  Today he stopped a couple who was walking holding a new looking baby an...
