Bluebonnets and Bonfires!

With all this rain we have had the pleasure of seeing a bunch of bluebonnets bloom on our property. As well as the rain, it is that time again to start cranking up the family bonfires! We love getting together around the fire pit and roasting marshmallows, although our first bonfire of the year was enjoyed not with marshmallows but with eating raisins! Hey you use whatcha got!!! We love sitting around as a family and watching the fire and just enjoying the outdoors! Here are some pictures from our first one of the year, I'm sure there are many more to come!!

The boys ready for the bonfire to begin!

More Love to spread...

We decided to add 6 more baby chicks to our chicken family. The kids love having them around and love playing with them. These were a lot smaller than the original 4 that we purchased that are now outside keeping the peacock company. Enjoy the pictures!!

Gumbo Cookoff!

A few weeks ago we went to a Gumbo Cookoff! Maya had decided to stay at home and hang out with Grandma B and Heather. We had a fun time trying 10 different types of gumbos and enjoying the outdoors.

That little stinker!

On Monday I had to start the cleaning process in our rental for the new tenants to move in. I started in one bathroom upstairs and saw that tristan was playing with the bathtub, but it was a deep garden tub so he was unable to climb in. I moved on to the second bathroom and didn't think of anything when he turned on the water, surely i didn't even think that he would get in, but sure enough he did. That little stinker climbed in the bathtub, in his jammies, and was playing in the water. I was a little shocked at first, because i did not plan properly for him possibly jump in a tub full of water. I didn't have any extra clothes, i did have my diaper bag with diapers though! I seached through my car, and ended up finding him a jacket to wear! Luckily, the new tenants were coming by and offered to bring me some clothes for him to wear... all and all it was pretty funny! I just kept on cleaning while he played in the water... what else was i supposed to do??? I DIDNT EVEN HAVE A TOWEL!!! HAHA, needless to say, i now pack a change of clothes, ALWAYS, in the diaper bag..

A Shark Tooth??

Last week I had asked Noah if he had any more loose teeth, he told me no, but that his bottom teeth had been hurting for a while.. So i took a look and sure enough I saw that there was a permanent tooth coming in behind his baby teeth, a "shark tooth" i was told! So we luckily got an appt the next day and sure enough had the two front baby teeth pulled! Here is my little trooper!!




Here is a picture of the baby teeth removed, show the adult tooth coming in already.

Rico Suave!!!

Tristan has recently learned to unzip his jammies and show off "chest hair" hahah... not really, but its so dang cute! He just walks around with his tummy and chest exposed...
