Flashback Dad and his newborns

Tanner & Dad


Tate & Dad

Tyce & Dad

SWIMMING

We had a day at the pool! Tyce's first swim... He loved it!... Tanner and Tate had a ball!

I got a cheap $99 camera at Target...While my CANON goes to the repair shop... I think I like the pictures it takes better than my CANON!

A little R & R at the Park

Enjoying the Park!....

Grandchildren are the reward!

Don't they just look EXHAUSTED from their day of MICHEVIOUSNESS! They fell asleep as soon as they got in the van and we picked them up...I thought they looked so sweet that I had to grab my camera and snap a shot... Good thing I got this before I got home .... Apparently during rest time this afternoon they were doing something besides resting!.....


Hum... There's a saying that says Grandchildren are the reward you get for not killing your children....


I wonder if I'll get GRANDCHILDREN!


Tony, (Ryan's business partner)...thought he would give me a break and watch the boys today while I went to work with Ryan since he knew I've been having a hard time with the kids...


He said he'd keep all 3.... but I decided that Tyce would be better off with me... All I can say is I am so GLAD I kept Tyce.... by the way (TYCE was AMAZING and such an ANGEL all day long!)

I checked in with him several times throughout the day and he kept saying oh it's going great!... I don't know if he was oblivious or WHAT???...

So, we met up with him about 7 tonight... He had the kids from 10:30 to 7pm... I left him with a schedule and lunch prepared and activities for them to do...


I don't think he checked on them at all.... They just had free reign of the place... But no one ended up in the emergency room so I guess that's the best part of the day...


They broke open a microbead pillow... And must have had a hayday spreading beads all over the upstairs pretending it was snowing (probably stemmed from a conversation a day ago that Vegas is pretty hot, if it doesn't snow does that mean Santa doesn't come)... I guess they wanted Santa to come today... These little super tiny beads are staticy...and are stuck everywhere... I went to lay Tyce down in his crib...and it took me 30 minutes cleaning up his crib enough that he wouldn't inhale these little things...there is seriously a layer everywhere...stuck on the walls and windows... They spent two hours cleaning before I came home...and had filled up a vacuum bag with microbeads.... so they did put some effort into the cleaning..they had a few towels up here wet...thinking water would help clean it up...But I have put in a good hour cleaning...and it's still gonna need a couple hours tomorrow....


Next area...The outside..Tony let them play in the water...They filled up a igloo dog house full of water..and were floating their LEGO boat... I'm sure they just thought all of this was so much fun.... They moved at least 200 bouncy ball size rocks into a nice little rock formation on the patio...


Anyway you get the gist... I was the LUCKY one I got a BREAK from Tanner and Tate... But tomorrow...I'll be CLEANING ALL DAY just from my day off!....

A little lego structure I found... Don't know if I should be concerned or what... all those little yellow round things are lego people heads and that is a lego man with a sword... MAYBE Tanner needs COUNSELING! I found this after he was asleep so I haven't gotten his interpretion of the structure!

Well gotta go to bed so I can start CLEANING tomorrow... My plan was to take them swimming tomorrow...but now I gotta clean!...ARGH!!!!.... HELP does anyone else have days like this?????????

TANNER *ARGH*

Tanner got mad at me and threw my new camera off the top stairs to the bottom....
YEAH... I wanted to kill him... I just left the house for a few hours to cool off....

I think the camera will be okay...But I don't think it takes as good as pics before...but it just
might have been the lighting in the tub....

I was planning on taking them to DISNEYLAND for their birthdays... But they frustrate me so much I think for their birthdays I'll just take a vacation to Mexico without them!....

I KNOW I KNOW..... One day I'll be wishing I had these days back... and I'm gonna miss this song plays through my head... but being a stay at home mom does not come very easily to me!

THANK GOODNESS RYAN WAS HOME TO BE WITH THE KIDS WHILE I LEFT!!!!

Tate's Necklace

Tate made himself a little necklace and wanted to show it off!

Tyce is 9 months Old

Wow!... That went fast!!!...

He's got a new little tooth!

If you look close you can see his little tooth!

Have no idea how he got his little bruise on his head... Just at that age of exploration!
