Relaxing Outside -look at those eyes!
Can you see the orange on her skin? Yea, that's the rust in our water...
Um, yea, I don't think that's supposed to be for you...
Right...
Nor do I think that's for you. Doesn't she look like she's in an office?
Hammock time!
Warming up after the sprinkler...

Raegan (8) & Aidan-she wants to hold him constantly! It's so sweet!
So I've tried for 2 days to upload video of Aidan on blogger. Video I KNOW you will all want to see. But I am unsuccessful. After 4 hours (yes you read that right) of trying yesterday and 45 min. tonight I have given up. Well, given up with blogger. I am now in process of uploading to you tube. And I'll have to put them in another post.
What? Oh, I forgot to tell you what it's of!
Aidan is scooting! Crazy man! At 5 mos. and 3 days he started scooting across the living room! He loves it! Aside from the fact that I had to bring him to the doctor today and he has his first ear infection, he is happy as a clam! Poor little guy-I hope it clears up fast. The one good thing that comes from us knowing he has an ear infection is it gives me some reasons why he's been sleeping so crappy the last few nights. Answers = relief! I hope when he's feeling better more sleep will be coming for all of us!
Olivia's doing good--her usual spirited self. She is teething- 2 year molars- and she gets so naughty when she's teething!! Stinker. Like Aidan, at least I know why!! Today she didn't nap, long story why, but she was asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow tonight. I'm hoping for a sleeping in morning tomorrow!
Olivia has been into "excuses" lately. For everything she doesn't want to do, she thinks she has a great excuse for why! I'm sick, it's too late, I'm too little, it's too cold, I'm too hot, It's dirty (and of course none of these really apply to whatever she's talking about!) and my all time favorite: It's too dangerous! Once again, my sayings have come back to bite me in the butt! :) Gotta love it!
The other day Olivia had a half piece of gum; she was doing a great job chomping away and not spitting it out, playing with it, etc. I got her out of her car seat to go into a restaurant and she opened her mouth and said, All Gone! Knowing full well she'd swallowed it, I said, Oh no! Where'd it go? She said: Down the hole! Hee hee... She cracks me up!
I've been having crazy, intense dreams lately! And they are anxiety dreams about school, work, kids, whatever! I think it's my lack of sleep, but they are too much! I worry enough when I'm awake, I don't need to do it when I'm sleeping too. Megan and Alicia, one of them was about you guys! Alicia, I was staying at your house with my kids while you were gone (it was totally not really your house though) and Megan came over. When she got there I realized how much I'd trashed the house and freaked out! I frantically began cleaning when your family came home to find me in your trashed house. Random.... :)
Charming expression Olivia...
