No Picture For This Story

Typically I post a picture with a story to go along, not this time. Tonight something happened, what your asking. Well 75% of the time the household is in control, yes are background noise is a little louder than most other houses, but what do you expect, there are six people living here. However the other 25% of the time is complete BANANA'S! Tonight was part of that 25%, I really hate these times, it makes me wonder what and the world was I thinking when I decided to have another. So let me paint the picture for you. We had back to school night tonight, which I lost my son for about 30 seconds, totally scary. After that I drove out to Gridley to get the girls from cheer practice. I was about thirty minutes early so the boys and I got out of the van to watch. He found these two little boys playing in the fenced area behind some bushes and invited himself to play. So I keep watching him, then Kirsten, and then it is time to go, and for about another 30 seconds I can't see him. I'm not totally freaked because I am by the exit already so I know he didn't make it out, and this area is totally fenced in so he couldn't escape. Then as I am running around like a crazy mom I see him behind a bush. Ashton wasn't tall enough to spot at a glance. "OMG, what is my deal", I am not feeling like a good mom right now, twice in one day("I'm tempted to use the leach I bought for emergency's"). This is why I am terrified to go anywhere by myself. So we get home, and it starts. The baby is apparently starving, so I start to feed him. Daniel was in the middle of a movie when we got there so he actually told me to go in the other room, really, fine. Then the baby isn't interested in eating just screaming (a bubble) so we work that out, but still not happy. Kirsten helps out and holds him so I can whip up the sloppy joes really quick. "OK we are fine", then Daniel realizes that he forgot to get his medicine from Target and he is all out, he had to leave, down two hands. This is when it gets good. Baby is still screaming and Kirsten decides she can't handle it anymore (OK it it's not her baby) so I tell her to put him down. Still crying, I decide we need to do emergency dinner instead, it is not ready yet, corn dogs for the three kids. Baby still screaming, then Kelsey take Ashton's plate from him, so then he is now screaming along with baby. So about 3 minutes later Kelsey realizes that she can't handle the noise and she starts crying" the noise needs to stop". And then Kirsten simply states "it is like a circus in here", and my only response is to laugh and agree with her. So as I continue to laugh so that I can remain sane for the moment, it really only lasted for about 5 minutes. We can go from 0 too though the roof in no time, I am glad that these episodes don't last long. However it take hours to recover from them. But the best part was, that by the time Daniel got home all of the kids were in bed, not fare.

A Trip To Vacaville

The baby's and I took a trip down to Vacaville this morning to pick up my new eye glasses and get a hair cut. In between the two appointment's we went over to Mrs. Cindy's house to hang out. Ashton was totally spoiled the hole time we were there and didn't take a nap. Only seconds of being in the car he was out. It was good to see you Mrs. Cindy, we miss you.

Papa Come's Up For A Visit

Papa Wayne came up for a visit and an oil change Monday night. We had some good taco's for dinner and visited the rest of the time. We are glad you could come up. What a great picture, cheese.

Thomas Underwear

I bought some big boy Thomas underwear to help with the interest in the potty. When I pulled them out of the package Ashton said "wow, caca" (everything that has to do with diapers, the bathroom and wipes is caca).

Fun In The Hose

I know it looks like we are being mean, but Ashton loves for you to spray him with the freezing hose water. He also likes to drink the water, so then you don't have to worry about him losing a cup in the backyard, works for me.

Are You Cozy?

I sent Kels in her room for a nap and found her sleeping under her desk. It was a fort from the night before when she had Makenna, her friend over, and now it is a bed. Nite nite Kels.

Rock Out Kelsey

We were hanging out last night and I saw Kels in the back of Daniel's truck with a broom stick for a microphone and a ball catcher for a guitar. What a great imagination.

On/Off

Ashton has figured out that with a stool he can turn the lights on, off, on, off. When I walk by a switch I turn them off again, and if he sees me he goes back and turns them on, great.

9 Weeks Old

Nine weeks old and the cheeks just keep getting bigger.Kirsten's friend Stephanie said the other day "it looks like he is wearing a fat suit" I couldn't have said it better

Kirsten's First Day Of Fifth Grade

Well it has happened, Kirsten's asked me not to take pictures in front of the school sign this year. She said "everyone looks at you mom", so I asked if I could get on as she walking up to the school, she said "fine". And what is crazy is that is a student in the background, at the same school as me little baby girl Kirsten, SCARY.

Kelsey's First Day Of Second Grade

After A Fun Day At The Nieghbors

The girls and I went shopping in Chico today and left Ashton next door with his friends, Rachel and Mattew. They are lucky enough to have a small jump house in there house. Needless to say Ashton was pooped after 3 hours over there, he fell asleep before I could even put him down. Nite nite Mr. Ashton.

Darn That Harley Rocker

Ashton was just walking around minding his own business and that Harley rocker jumped up and hit his eye. The purple eye is always a cool look.

So Relaxed

When have you been so relaxed that your legs just fall to the side. It must be nice to suck on a boob all day, have someone burp you, change your diaper after exploding in it and then just fall asleep whenever you want.

Who Is That?

I came out of the bedroom thinking there must have been a bear in the house, but it was just Daniel. Only seconds after starting a movie our Daddy was sound asleep. Nite nite Daddy.

Wanna Race?

Of course the big boy's needed to race on the slip n slide, every thing's always a competition with them. I had to move at the last minute so the camera didn't get wet, but who do you think won and ripped open his boo boo on his foot, Ricky!

Fun Times

Ashton couldn't hold still for a second
