Muffins with Mom

Muffins with Mom at Lydia's school. This is before Kayla dumped the juice over of course.

Also, I was wearing pink too in case you haven't noticed that we live in a VERY pink world. Poor Jude can't see pink though! He thought my pink shirt was gray until I held my gray sweater up next to it. Apparently the only difference is that pink is darker. I find it very funny that Jude can't see the dominant color in his life. Perhaps his color-blindness is a defense mechanism to protect himself from pink over-taking his world too?

100th Day of School

What a cutie! And I love that she is wearing this sweater too. It is her absolute favorite shirt right now :) Also, when did we start celebrating the 100th day of school? It's just another reason to count to 100 I guess.

Pinewood Derby

Last place. He was pretty bummed, but the guy in charge of the race awarded last place with the opportunity for him to fix the car up and get it into winning shape. So after the guy worked his magic Jude had the second fastest car! So next year, we'll pay more attention to making the wheels exactly straight.

Jude was proud of his car though. Uncle Bobby helped him cut it out and get it sanded, then Dad helped him finish it off and they added some weight to get it right at 5 ounces. If it hadn't pulled to the left it would've been a contender :)

Yellow and Black of course- to a color blind boy there really are no other colors.

Jude loved the Pokemon sticker he chose and of course had to be #8.

Keyboard Fun

I love how much Talia loves Lydia's things. Whenever Lydia leaves her things out T sneaks in and takes her turn. Also, the headband headphones are the greatest invention of all time.

Park Day with Aunt Megan

Aunt Megan was in town today with her family so she suggested we go to the new All-Abilities park by Tonaquint. It was a lot of fun. CROWDED. But fun. The park is huge- I hardly saw Jude, Lydia, and Julia the whole time. But these two had plenty of fun on their own.

If you're wondering why I took so many pictures- Talia insisted I take a picture of everything she did of course. These two are pretty amazing climbers. It always cracks me up that Kayla has no concept that she's smaller than her siblings, she has an "if they can do it, I can do it" attitude about everything. It was especially fun watching her zip down the super-fast slide just like a big kid than run around to do it again and again. I like to watch the other parents watching her, they think she's as funny as I do.

Potty Training

We've been potty-training Talia lately (she's so STUBBORN)

But Kayla has jumped on board and takes care of herself for the most part. Which has been frustrating (she plays in the toilet as often as she potties in it), and hilarious all at the same time.

Today I walked in to find her sitting on the toilet completely naked, so I grabbed my camera just in time for her to fall in! She was a little shocked at first, but then she laughed and laughed!

Food Appreciation

I always like to document when my children actually eat something I make. Kayla is a big fan of rice so today we were late picking John up from work (while his car is in the shop), because I just couldn't pull her away from her dinner. I like her.
