OPEN HOUSE

We really love going to the kids Open House at school so we can see all their projects and papers. They always get super excited to show us! We went to Cali's rooms first and then to Aedan's room and they made sure we saw everything possible! It's hard to tell which is theirs in the pictures but I still take them. We are so proud of all their work and creativity!

Em got to swing for a few minutes...

Cali's classes...




hers is the darker red flower above her...


(she's being sad because her plant didn't grow)


her butterfly is right above her...

Aedan's classes...


Loved his "Hero" paper! 




his is the red one...


Aedan's profile...

The rest of the random pictures for May....


Em and I took a different route one morning when we were out exercising and there was a park so we stopped so Em could swing and play for a few minutes...


One morning at school Aedan's class was playing a game and he got so excited he hit his mouth on his desk knocking out BOTH of his front teeth! Luckily they were already pretty loose (with the adult ones growing in behind). There was lots of blood (he thought that was cool) and they found both teeth by his desk so he was able to put them under his pillow for the tooth fairy. All weekend he was pretty bruised and swollen...



She needed her shades to watch the iPad...


She decided one day to change Pablo's diaper...
(Aedan's Pablo from Backyardigans)






Later I found Pablo in her bed taking a nap...

I went to help out in Cali class one morning so Geoff and I met for breakfast so he could go to work and I could take Em. She loved having breakfast with Mommy and Daddy...

trying to give me a kiss from across the table...



She wanted to ride Aedan's bike (with my helmet of course) but couldn't reach the pedals so I pulled her around for a while and then Aedan too over for me...




Putting a diaper on Minnie...

Aedan and Cali had fevers (that happened way too much in April and May!!) so instead of a fun family Saturday night we had a movie night at home. They were ok with that. ;) Aedan ended up telling me his mouth hurt though and when I looked he had an absess in there so we took him to the dr. They drained it (OUCH!!) and gave him some meds and he was feeling better pretty fast...


We spent Sunday at Grandma's and they were so tired when we left that they all zonked out on the way home!

Em has been into My Little Pony lately so we played together one morning. Chores and laundry can wait right??...


 Geoff cleaned out the cars and washed them so one of the old car seats ended up in the house. Em climbed inside, buckled herself in and then fell asleep a little while later...

MEMORIAL DAY 2014

We decided to have a Disney day for Memorial Day this year since last year it wasn't busy. This year it totally was and it was pretty hot!! We still stayed for a few hours and went on some rides. We had a great time!


We had to stop at their Frozen summer display they have of Olaf made out of sand. It's pretty cool and the kids were super excited about it!

Em patiently waiting in line...

and waiting for Aedan & Cali to go on Soarin...


Em and I spent some time in Bugs Land...



Everyone else joined us after CARS LAND...


We had to ride Small World while we were there...


She was pretty tired!!

 Since it was such a HOT sunny day we stopped for some Thrifty's on our way home...


When we got home it was nap time for Em. She was so tired and excited for her nap that she jumped onto her bed to land on her pillow but instead hit the headboard. She sliced her eyebrow right open. I heard screaming and then when Geoff brought her out there was sooooo much blood!! We got her cleaned up and changed her clothes and then I took some pictures before we bandaged her up and ran to the ER. She was so good the whole time. She let the nurses swaddle her up so she couldn't move while they stitched her. She did cry during the stitches but they only took a few minutes and then she was all done and happy again. I'll spare you the close up picture that shows her eyebrow handing down (so gross) but you'll get the idea with these...

after we got her all cleaned up...


waiting for the surgeon...


after she got her 6 stitches!!


The next morning she was bruised and swollen. I tried to get a good picture of it but you couldn't really see the purple. Over the next few days it got darker. She left her stitches alone and was such a trooper.
