Bounce House Fun

At Bubba and Lexie birthday party they had a big bounce house. Alex and Monique wanted nothing to do with it for the first couple of hours. When it was empty of all the kids we got in and then I couldn't get them out!

When Alex finally warmed up to the bounce house he had fun.


Yeah, I finally stood up!


Monique, Adrian and Wyatt having fun.


Bubba's sister Lexie was being a big helper for Monique.


Monique telling Lexie "More please"!


I think the girls are done.


Time to go down the slide!


Alex was at the bottom to catch her.

Water Time

We were not planning on getting wet, but it was so hot out I put the little pool out. Yes, Cash is in his pj's still and Alex wanted to take his shorts off! Monique got up to fast, but she was sitting on the chair with her feet in the water just hanging out watching the boys taking in the sun. These two don't have a chance! It looks like they are holding hand. :) She wanted to go back out. Thankfully we have the deadbolt up high!

Monique's First Hair Do

I did Monique's hair for the first time, and I didn't go so well so I am glad she didn't stay still for the picture.

Here you can see it was just long enough to put it in little pigtails. Then she wanted to put a headband on by herself of course.


She stopped for Alex to take her picture!

Fixing Daddy's Truck

When I told Alex we were going to Grandma & Grandpa Walin's house so daddy and Grandpa Phil could work on his truck, he got excited and wanted to bring his tools along to help too!

The boys working on Mike's truck. Well...Phil working, thanks!

Monique is ready to work with her dog and tools.


They thought picking the pods up in the yard was more exciting!


Here Grandpa you eat it!

Alex's First Sleep-Over

We had a last minute sleep over with a few friends; Lincoln & Bubba. We made a bed in the living room and watched 2 of the Toy Story movies before Lincoln wanted to leave and Bubba fell asleep.

Around 10:30 Alex wanted to go to bed, but in his room! Remember Bubba was asleep on the living room floor, luckily he sleeps like a rock. While Mike carried him I was able to move the living room bed to Alex's room. Bubba was out and Alex finally went to bed!

7:30 came early when we heard hammering on the wall and laughing. So Mike put a stop to that quickly with cartoons! Of course now we asked Alex if next time he is going to sleep at Bubba's house he says "no Bubba sleeps in his room"! :)

Happy St. Patrick's Day

We had our green on St. Patrick's Day!

Resting for a minute. I don't know what he was doing??

A little kiss for daddy.


Tata makes a great chair!


He even caught Monique without disturbing Alex!

Spring Break Zoo Trip

During Rachel's spring break we went to the zoo...

Sitting: Christin, Cash & Monique Standing: Alex & Alex (This was easy when they would take off to far we would yell, ALEX, ALEX from either mom and they both would freeze)


The poor little guys had to be strapped in most of the time!


Alex and Alex looking at the giraffe


They loved looking at the cow!

Monique: I see it!

What good boys, they had to keep their hands behind their back while looking at the turkey.

Monique loved looking at the ducks.

She could have stayed there all day.


After seeing the animals we played on the playground....
Say cheese.



Standing on the farmer!


Wheeeeeee


Already driving, how scary!

Sandal and Shorts Time

Monique loves to put on our shoes. When she gets it she is so proud.


Here is a little video of her trying to walk in my shoes!


We bought Monique new sandals and she still fits in her shorts from last summer. I can't believe her 0-3months shorts still fit!!

She loves her new shoes, what a girl! :)

What a Difference

What a difference on how these two eat yogurt.


This morning Alex didn't spill a drop...however



I don't know how much Monique actually ate!

Sleeping Cuties

As you know I love taking pictures of the kids sleeping...I could not pass these one up!


Alex made Elmo his own bed with a pillow and blanket. How sweet, this is what he was doing stalling before falling asleep.


Monique all cuddled up with her bunny and dog.



Cash was sound asleep in our bedroom when Alex, Monique and myself went to check on him; I thought we was awake! He stayed asleep with Alex talking and Monique trying to throw her bunny over the pack-in-play.
