We spend A Lot Of Time At The Library.

This post is way outta order, some pics are from march and some from this month, sigh.
 
I love taking the kids to the library! We like to go to the 2pm story time cause it's in between Hason's nap times.  Sometimes they are the only two kids there! Pretty cool they get all the attention!


 
Pretty days are for eating on the patio.


Brielle always asks to play on the computer after story time....you better hope we have time or else there's a full blown fit being thrown on our way out :/







 

Playing with the balls! Apparently I never realized we didn't have any around the house, now I know what he's getting in his Easter basket!  Landon and I are awfully proud he likes balls, foreshadowing of his love for sports...maybe!

He wanted to take it with him so badly haha...

 
My sweetie ready for Western Day at school, Her dad and I just adore this picture!
 
 Our library hosted something called "Truck Day" all the big trucks and emergency vehicles came out and the kids got to climb up in them and ask questions to the men who drove them.  It was pretty cool, I think Hason will love this in a few years...isn't that what boys like...big ole trucks?
 
 
They even served popcorn and lemonade!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I made sure to get my picture with a hot fireman to make Landon jealous hehe.
 
 
 Can you see the bruise/bump on Hase head? It's his first bump. A pretty good one too considering he didn't fall that far.
 
 
He was crawling and fell off this step so his little head was already pretty close to the ground.  It got bruised fast.
 
 
I love this more than almost anything..........
 
 
 
 
  
Isn't this a beautiful sky!? That's got God written all over it.
 
My honey bear looks so little here, she's enjoying Uncle Mark read her a book.
 
Nothin more sweet than a couple of sleeping babies.... 
 

Workin Round The House

There is always a project to be done around here.  I finally feel like I have my life in order and can juggles many tasks again.  This particular night I decided to give our pantry a facelift.

 



 
That week Brielle and I also decided to pull a full trash bag full of weeds out of our yard as well.


I dug up two big bushes in my garden out back.  There were 4 total but that was to crowded.  I love landscaping but sometimes there's just too much and I am trying  to have balance and simplify my life in any way I can so they had to go (to my moms).  That's two less bushes I have to trim, that only leaves me 16! HAHA!
 
I looooove flower planting time! 
 
 
I like to rotate the kids toys so they don't get bored...you can only keep buying so many toys until they take over your home.  So I went around and gathered up all Brielle's toys we had out and switched them for the other half I had stored.  Since I was in organizing everything I took the time to try and gather up all the tiny toys such a Barbie shoes and put them away.  She can have them back someday but Hason is a "put everything in your mouth" kinda baby and I don't want to take any chances. 
 
My honey bear relaxed while I organized her toys.  She is so sweet, she knows that there are other toys stored away under the stairs but she doesn't ask for them.  She knows she gets to play with them in phases and she's ok with that. Such a sweet understanding easy girl she is.
It's garage sale season....Mom, me and the kids stopped at a few one weekend and we all scored some great books..........
 
 
Hase's was a pop up and absolutely adorable!
 
Oh yeah! haha Landon hated that some other weird person just happened to have an Eskimo book laying around that I could buy :)
 
We have also been wanting to paint our front door and shutters black.  Our brick is a light pink color (gross I know) and the shutters & doors are white so everything is washed out.  Black is going to add some great contrast and if you've been to my house you know I love me some black. (just not in clothes) 
 
Family trip to Lowes...........
 
Neely was so good.  she got sick of sitting in the cart so I let her out...she followed me the whole time and would sit and stay when I told her to while I tried to decide on paint colors.  Such a good dog she it...I worked hard to train her though.
 
Putting his new ladder to good use.

 
Then that evening I treated Landon to dinner in celebration of my new "work from home" part time job....more about that later.  :)
 
We ordered dessert and Brielle was a bit distracted with there game so I put a menu up between us so she wouldn't notice and I wouldn't have to share with her.  Horrible mother I know. She's to smart though, she got a piece of cake after all.
