IPHONE PICS

Some more iphone pictures...

These girls love to match! Ok... really it's Cali. She gets so excited when they match. They wore matching shirts and capris on this day. I tried to get Em to smile but she was too busy munching on cheez-its that Aedan had brought outside. Stinker! :) I also took some pictures of Em playing outside. There have been lots but she totally loves it and it's fun to watch her.







We went to Home Depot to get some flowers. Cali had been dying to water flowers so we went to get some. The kids each picked out their own thing of flowers and a pot to put it in. I picked Jasmine as mine because I LOVE the smell. We also got some basil and parsley so I could use them in my cooking. It seems like I'm always sending Geoff to the store to get me some nice and fresh but now he won't have to! :) Anyway... while we were there the kids wanted to ride in the fun car cart. Geoff drove them crazily all over the parking lot and then I took over while he put Em in the car. They had a blast.

Our friends Shaun and Allie texted us because they were heading to The Old Spaghetti Factory and wanted to know if we'd meet them there. Of course! The kids had fun and Em and Riley were excited to see each other (at least I like to think so).







I can't be on the computer anymore when Em is awake (one of the reasons my blogging is behind). She loves typing on the keys or looking at the screen. She discovered Aedan's old laptop and now she loves that! She sits and types away on the little keys....



I love watching her walk around and play...

I love the way she's looking at me in this one...


Cali wanted to be a zebra...

Cali fell asleep waiting for Aedan to finish his homework...

Em can now climb up onto our bed. Uh Oh!

The kids love making me things. Cali made this and cut it out for me...


The kids drew this for me...

I made chocolate chip cookies and snickerdoodles so we had ice cream sandwiches as our treat for family night. The snickerdoodle ones were pretty good in case you wanna try it sometime...


Em climbs onto this bouncing zebra and bounces around. She giggles and bobs her head to the music...

She also sits on the seat of this piano and plays it...

Em drawing with some chalk with her friends...



PUPPETS AND BUBBLES

I volunteered at Cali's preschool again and we had a fun day. :)

Cali and her friend did a puppet show for me...


We made a paper moon by blowing paint bubbles and then putting the paper up against the bubbles. It was pretty cool...



Cali is learning about space so these are all the planets, rockets, stars, ect that the class made. Cali's rocket is to the left of her head. She's very proud of it. :)

They had rocket costumes so Cali and her friend put them on to dance around in...

Cali and her friends tried to hoola hoop...


And Cali went on the swings, of course...

Another picture of Em enjoying the outdoors. She giggles and smiles and dances to the music of her car...


All the boys went to a Father/Son campout so we decided to have a girls night with a bunch of friends and our daughters. We went to PIEOLOGY for dinner which was delicious and the rest went to a movie but Em is too little so Cali and I went to get some frozen yogurt instead and then went home to watch a movie together while Em slept. It was a fun night. Our neighbors are our friends and their daughter had 2 of the same skirts so she gave one to Cali and they both wore white shirts, white sandals and green flowers in their hair. They looked so cute! Cali was so excited to match because she just loves her friend!



Cali has been into sweeping lately. I'm not sure where it came from but she wants to sweep all the time...




Maybe she got it from Snow White? She put on her Snow White dress and started sweeping and then wanted to watch the movie in spanish. So because it was in spanish she thought she had to tell me what they were saying while acting it all out for me. It was pretty fun to watch. I took some pictures that are kind of blurry because she's moving but you get the idea...







Em LOVES to color! She sees crayons or markers and starts scribbling away. She gets super giddy about it too. We went to Islands for dinner and she got her very own kids menu with crayons for the first time. She was so excited! She would color and try to eat the crayons but when I'd tell her no or take them out of her mouth she'd be so sad! She also loved having her own kids cup with a straw...




So sad!

The kids put a tutu on her...

I checked on Em and she had fallen asleep like this. I just thought it was funny...

For Mother's Day we went to Grandee's house to spend it with her. Geoff and Bill made a delicious turkey dinner with mashed potatoes, gravy and the works. Yum! I made a yummy dessert to go with it and then the men cleaned everything up which meant doing the dishes without a dishwasher! Curt came to spend the day with us and Em let him give her a kiss....


Em loves to put on my glasses...



Em coloring with markers (and trying to eat them)...


Em was so sad when I wouldn't let her eat them...

I splurged (the whole dollar something) and got the kids popcorn at Target. They were so excited!

They snuck it to Em (or more likely she stole it) in the car...
