gEt Me OuT oF hErE!!!

Well we finally had a nice day on Monday, So I had Andy my neighbor get my bike and the bike trailer down off the hook in the garage so me and the kids could venture out on our first bike ride of the year. Maddie was a big girl and rode her own bike but I lugged Jason and Tyler around. ( I swear the combined weight of the trailer and them is at least a 100 lbs ). We didn't get too far when Tyler started to get really upset. I thought if I just got going he would settle down. I remember when Jason was about two months old I put him in this thing and as long as I didn't stop he wouldn't fuss. Well that wasn't the case for Tyler. He was only a little upset in the beginning but let me know that he wanted out by the time we got home. I think that he was just so uncomfortable and Jason seemed to smother him a little. Hopefully the next time we get out he will be a lot happier. Jason, Maddie and I at least enjoyed it.

roll over

Tyler started rolling over this week, only from his belly to his back. He has also noticed his toes and grabs at them when he can. He is starting to grab at other things, His hands don't always line up with the object but he is getting the hang of it more and more each day. It's funny he gets this real trying hard look on his face when he is trying to get something that I have for him..I call it his "may the force be with you look". I am noticing and trying to record every little accomplishment he makes for the fact that this is the last time I will see all of the next stages in life because he is the last. It has been while since my last baby that I am really trying to soak all of this in.

Mom Rules!

I am so into T-Shirts and Onesies that say fun things. I am sure you have seen or will see more funny and cool ones the more I post. Little Jason says that I am the Best Mommy. He sure does love me. I love how my kids are very forgiving especialy when I am not my best.

POOP happens

Ever since starting Tyler on a little bit of Baby food, I get the joy of having atleast one of these a day. I am doing good at getting the onsie off without getting it all over him. He just thinks it's funny. I know gross but he shares with me so I will share with all of you ;)

Sunday Funday

This past Sunday we went to Copperton park for a picnic and family fun day. Jason went there often as a child with his family and he took me there all the time when we were dating ( aah dating! ). We both remembered it being bigger and how it seemed so far away, especially when your on a motorcycle. It was great. It was only five minutes away from home and the weather was beautiful. Our little family has made it a point to go do something together once a week since Daddy is gone most the time during the weekdays. I cherish all our time together and I know the kids do too.

being a mommy..

On a day to day bases:

I get poop on my hands, get scratched, get yelled at, drooled on, spit up on, chewed on, tugged at, screamed at, cried on, told what to do, pinched, peed on, farted on and my favorite..... laughed at.

I am a taxi, groomer, restaurant, singer, story teller, bather, shoe lace tyer, shoe finder, blanket catcher, sock matcher, close coordinator, bum wiper,debater, negotiator, chaser, phone dialer, reader, toy cleaner, hand sanitizer, Nurse, pharmacist and my favorite...a kisser and a hugger.

Am I complaining..NO. I love all of the jobs above and all the other that comes with it. I really enjoy being a Mommy. I love my kids so very much. I am so blessed to have these stinkers!

Pictures are important

So I take it that I need to go and have a family picture taken. Our pictures lately have been like this. Me behind the camera or Jason behind it. Which is fine I guess. As I look thru the photo albums I have noticed that I hardly have any pictures of me with my kids. So as much as I hate my piture taken I am going to start making it more of a habit and since starting to blog I have the camera with me at all times. There were never enough pictures of my Dad and that has bothered me so I now realize that I need my kids to know that I was happy with them. I need more pictures of me. Recent ones because the big hair pictures is not how they are going to remember me.

Yummy

I know that I will have more pictures like these I am sure. Tyler loves to eat. I think he would eat all day if I let him. He was so wiggily and just as I was giving him a spoonfull he came forward and got a nose full of pears. His bib says Mom's mess maker. ( On his face and in his pants!! ) I just can't stop beaming over this kid. He is so much fun!
