They Both SMILE

Mommy loves pictures....

hard to get these 2 to smile at the same time!

Life is a lot easier when you walk out your back door,

Aunt Lisa comes over,

and

snaps a picture!

and....

they both are smiling

Relay for Life

2012

Miss Annie enjoying her gummies!

These 4 love each other!

Chandler's school had a jump castle at Relay to help raise money!

Those 5 minutes seemed like forever!

Enjoing some popcorn and rest time!

We had a great time with the faculty at school celebrating Relay for Life!

A Night in the Looper House Minus One

I round the corner and here is what I find....

but it is all good when you see this.....

or this little one talking about what she sees in the book!

AND it is all better to mommy when it looks like this!

The Mommy Duties Never Stop

These lunch bags are ready to be filled...

mommy and daddy will have salad...

I am just in love with our salad containers.  I am not one who likes for my salad to touch before I eat it, it seems to get watery.....so these work great!

Contents are ready to dump into bowl and enjoy tomorrow for lunch!

Chandler has his normal-sandwich, cookies and chips!

And then, this is ready to run..... 

Then, its back to the kids to get them ready for bed!

The kids bathroom is all about the ocean and I just love it!

We are getting better with how routines need to be handled before bed.

Emma Kate's 2nd birthday party was all about the beach and she gave these cute sand buckets to all the guest......well....

they were just too cute to put outside in the sandbox.

so we are using them in bathroom to hold our toothbushes and toothpaste.

They are working great and the kids love the fact that they can get their bucket down with their items! (and they match perfectly)

Okay, so Chandler likes different kinds of toothpaste!

Different flavor every night.

AND

when it is all said and done and checked off

play time

fix supper

eat supper

get baths

read books/play with puzzles

brush teeth

clean up the house

Nothing beats watching these 2 precious miracles from God rest and giving mommy a moment to sit and relax!

On a side note....happy to report that Cayleigh has crawled in her bed everynight for the past week and gone to sleep on her own!  (Knock on wood that this will continue)

Even with the craziness of our life, I would not change a thing!

Thank you God for the life that you have even me...

a wonderful loving husband who does not mind to work (it is 12 am and he is still working-soon to be home)

1 brown eyed boy who thinks that he should have some type of ball in his hand 24-7 but is so loving

1 blue eyed girl who is a spit fire, carefree child who loves to eat

Happy Easter!

It's hard to get everyone to smile...

at least we are looking at the camera!

Our Handsome Boy! 

Just love this picture

Easter Egg Hunt at Ma and Pa's House!

All Chandler wanted to do was RUN!

Off to the Beach

My SIL is so creative!  I just love going to her house and seeing all the neat and creative things!

For Emma Kate's 2nd birthday, it was all about the beach!

Can you imagine what the conversations will be like one day on the beach!

Well lots of shadows here but a wonderful picture!

Of course, mine is not looking again!

Oh well, still 2 out of 3!

Thanks Aunt Emi and Uncle Mike Mike for a great party!

We love you Emma Kate

Happy Birthday EK!

It is amazing at how time flies by so fast.

Emma Kate turns 2 today!

These 2 just adore you and love you to pieces!

We love you Emma Kate!

Love Cayleigh and Chandler

Day 2-Spring Break

Edventure was the place to be on day 2 of Spring Break.

The kids had a blast and lots of new things since we had been there!

Meet Eddie

Shows you just how big he is!

Farm time 

Cayleigh did great walking....I did have her leash! (haha)

Time to fill her up!

Cayleigh liked helping with the tire!

And

It does not get any better than the grocery store.

I thought we would have a melt down with Cayleigh when it was time to go but she did fine!

So funny, she was so short that she decided to climb on the register where you can sit your items!

Body Time 

Oh what fun!
