Tulare Fair

Max and Joeys buddy Tanner,were all running around having fun!!!

Poor Brody was exhausted

Joey fishing and catching a duck!

What a fun Daddy!!!!!!

The kids had a great time at the fair this year. They loved playing the games and riding the rides! By the pictures we look very happy, but boy was it alot of work! Brody wasnt very happy and screamed off and on. I was exhausted and sweaty, a very bad combo. Even though it was crazy I'm sure next year we will forget and go again! Its all about the kidos!!

BRODSTER!!!

Isn't this the cutest picture! We went to the midget races and thank goodness my girlfriend had this "pink" headset that is usually for her daughter. "Thank-you Jenna!"

Max's 1st day of preschool

To my surprise no tears where shed as we dropped Max off for his first day. Miss Monica is his teacher and she knows Max, which made it easier. He's been getting a little teary eyed the last couple of days when I drop him off, but when I pick him up he's so happy and can't stop talking about the fun things he's been doing. He comes home and always wants to write his letters. My mom babysat him the other day and he had to bring his paper and write letters for her too! I hope he's always this excited to learn!

Cake fight!!

My kids love baking cakes. They love cracking the eggs, stirring the batter and licking everything!! After these pictures no one will ever want to come over for cake.

I asked Max to smell the cake mix and I couldn't resist!!! Not wanting to be a mean mommy, I let him get me back. He thought it was hilarious!

A dirty kitchen to clean- 1 hour . A cake fight filled with laughter with my kids-memories that will last for a lifetime!!!!

Brody is almost 20 pounds!

Went to the doctor last week for a checkup and Brody is 19lbs.4oz. He's slimming down and getting longer. He is such a happy baby and so easy! He's always sucking on his thumb or hand so I'm sure a tooth should be coming up soon. He's noticing when I leave the room and come back. It's the best feeling to be wanted so much! I love him!!!!!!!!

Joey growing up!

She may want to do nails or make-up!!!

This was Joeys month of being a girly, girl. These are just a few of the pictures I took of her making herself pretty. The top picture is her 1st updo. I know you can't see the updo, but my camera was full so it's all I got! She looked so pretty and grown up. I can't wait for her hair to get thicker, I'm going to have a blast as long as she sits still! Then on another day I painted her nails a pretty pink. She then got ahold of my nail polishes, obviously the lid was not on tight enough and comes to me with dark purple on her feet and smiling. I had to laugh once I checked the carpet for stains! I also have to now put my make-up away in a higher cupboard, she'll use a chair if she has to. She got ahold of my lipstick! She said "mommy, me pretty!" I had to agree!!

Max wanting to be just like Daddy!

This last month has been crazy. I haven't blogged since the forth of July. Max right now is wanting to be like Daddy! Its so cute, but can be annoying. He just started wanting to match Daddy and wear the same color clothes and spike his hair up. The other day he was upset at me for about 1 hour because his hair in the back wasn't "spikie like Daddy's." We just got him to except that God gave him and daddy different hair colors and I can't dye it and make it black like dad's. Joseph's been irrigating this year so we decided to plant some sweet corn by the house and Max's loves to dig and water it like dad! They also have been going to the Rawhide games together. It's cheap entertainment and not only does Max love it, we go once in awhile as a family too. Friday night is the little fireworks show and Max got a ball the last time they went. It made his night. He loves spending time with Joseph!
