Is this day over yet?

Let me give you a rundown on my day today.
It started at 5 am (thanks Crew)

This is the sink that a nameless (see above) child made into his own personal hot tub and overflowed this morning.


This is the gum that the same child ripped into while in line at the store. That same gum ended up smeared all over his car seat and body while driving home.(yes i let him have piece...I've been up since 5) His gum privileges are gone.


This is a result of that same sweet, child trying to find just the right shirt to change into when we got home.


Not pictured: The knife he he grabbed out of the dishwasher because he thought it would be a cool sword. Luckily I was right there. It's not even 2 pm.
I feel like I'm taking care of one mess while he's creating another!
Please tell me you have days like this.

The Last Visitors of the Summer

We had our final round of visitors for the summer. First Sara and her boys came over for a few days while Doug came here for work. We packed a lot in those few days and sure had fun having them here! The pool, the beach, ice cream, legoland, and even squeezed a little shopping in with all five boys in tow.



Crew and Mikey are quite the duo. They are going to be best friends someday, they just don't know it yet! They kept Sara and I on our toes :)
Mikes parents came and we all headed to Legoland.




Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Wilder for coming to visit! We love having you here.

Last but not least Jaxon and Crew started swim lessons last week, I love going to watch them and see how they improve each day.

One big Party

My kids have no sense of reality right now. This summer has been one continuous party for them so far. A few weeks ago the Littlefields came to visit us and we were able to go to the Yankess/Angels game and Seaworld. We had tons of fun and miss our good friends! Three days after they left my parents came to visit and we did another two days at Disneyland. The boys got spoiled by Grandma and Grandpa with a trip to Build a Bear and of course tons of love and attention. I love having my parents visit and I am always sad when they have to leave. A few days later was Mikes 30th Birthday and Fathers Day. Jaxon was a big help making the cake and helping make that day special for Mike. Here are some pictures of all the festivities!














I think the summer is going to have to start slowing down for me, I seriously felt crippled after the 2nd day at Disneyland. Took me days to recover.



Wow, I definitely didn't post pictures of this Birthday cake to show off my cake making skills...ha ha!

To Brighten Your Day....

At my expense I thought I would make your day a little better. Me + 1988. My grandma sent Mike this picture to him in his birthday card...we have had some good laughs, so I thought I would share. Its just all wrong. The bangs. Acid wash from head to toe. I look homeless.

Lets hope I can dress my daughters better than I did myself, cause we are having TWIN GIRLS!

Just some random pictures

Here are a few pictures of what we have been up to lately.
We took the boys to Newport Beach the other day and it was cold and windy. Despite that, Jaxon was determined to have a good time and would not leave! So we sat on the beach with sand blowing everywhere until Jaxon decided he had enough. We managed to have a good time anyway.
We've been spending lots of time at the pool and I am just getting bigger by the week. I haven't officially announced it on our blog, but I'm sure most of you know that we are expecting twins. I'm not sure it has even sunk in yet, but we find out the sexes in a few weeks!

Disneyland

Well, we made it to California for the summer and the highlight so far has definitely been Disneyland. My old roomie works at Disney World and came down for a few days to go to Disneyland with us and seriously HOOKED. US. UP. She even brought the boys Disneyland shirts to wear their first day, and pretty much was our personal photographer the whole time since I am horrible at taking pictures. Thank you again Raschell! The boys favorite rides were for sure the Buzz Lightyear and Toy Story rides.

They boys were pumped out of their minds just to be on the tram from the parking lot to the park.









Day Two:
Just as happy the second day..




Crew started not feeling well the second day, and was asleep in the stroller when we met Mater and McQueen. Jaxon looked completely star struck and couldn't believe he was meeting them.




See you next month Disney!
