My Babies...

We've been super busy around here lately.

Don't ask me what we've been busy doing because I'm not sure.

But for whatever reason we've been busy.

With all that said- I did get a chance to snap a few shots of my sweet babies - minus one- the baby- she didn't make this particular walk.  She stayed with her daddy.






No matter how busy we get- I'm so thankful for these faces to keep busy with!

Rock Star Soccer Player...

Little Man has really turned into a rock star of a soccer player.

He's a scoring machine!  But most importantly- He works really Hard!

He makes his mama proud!
 



I know I'm partial (and maybe it's wishful thinking)- but doesn't he just look athletic?...I'll answer for you:

Yes.  Yes he does.


What else have we been up to?...

Ahhh yes.

One night I got bored so I dyed both of my older children's hair. 

I might have done the baby's too but she was asleep.

(Before you pick up the phone and call me in- I'm just kidding about the baby.  Blue isn't her color anyway.)








First there was bleaching involved.

I can almost hear you gasping in shock.

But look how cute she was during the whole thing...


Now it's ready for some awesome blue color.

Did you think I was kidding about the blue color?

I. Was. Not. Kidding.


Little Man only got to wear his to school one day and then the next night he got it all buzzed done to the hair without blue on it.

Did I mention that their daddy wasn't home when this took place?

Well, he wasn't, and while he did handle the shock fairly well- I'm pretty sure we won't be doing blue on Little Man's hair again any time soon.  He wasn't quite as shocked by Little Miss'.


TA-DA...


I forgot to take an after picture of Little Man's.

Isn't it so fun!

Maybe we'll do pink next time.

Just kidding Honey and Grandparents...you don't have to call me right after you read this.

I would never do pink anyway- she would look way better in PURPLE.

Prom- Who's A Wonderful Aunt? Me!!!

So it's prom season and yours truly has been super busy Promming it up doing hair and makeup for my nieces.
 
I don't know if you're aware of this or not, but I have my cosmetology licence.
 
I try not to advertise this info too much.
 
So- shhhhh!!!  Don't tell anyone.
 
I love prom. 
 
I'd like to go again actually- To my own.
 
As a matter of fact- a few years ago- I put together an Adult Prom.
 
DJ
Rented out space
Cheesy Photo Backdrop
Streamers
Fancy Dresses
There were even a couple of corsages present
 
I mean- getting dressed up, having fancy hair and makeup- what's not to like!
 
As I write I'm already thinking it might have to be done again- only this time I'm thinking-
80's Prom!!!
 
My husband will be so excited (she said thick with sarcasm)!
 
Anyhoo- My niece looked lovely- I'm an awesome aunt- I'm just sayin'.
 

 
Hair bow made out of her hair...


Her and her Mimi (my lovely mama)...

 
Her, her sweet little sister, and her amazing mother w/my newest niece nice and snug in her tummy (my sister-in-law - my brother out did himself when he married her- just sayin')...
 

She said Prom was a Smashing Success-
With fabulous hair and makeup to help her dance her night away!!!

Easter

I told you about -

Ohhhhh-

I don't know.

Forever ago-

That I'd post some pictures from our Easter.

However- I'm just now getting around to it.

SOrry.

Anyhoo- Better late than never- (the motto I live by).

Little Miss had a big Easter Egg hunt at school.  She was very excited about the goodies in her eggs.  I'm not going to lie- there was chocolate- so I was pretty stoked too.
 
 
 
Because I looooovvvveee her soooooo much- I decided to take her a fun treat.  The smile she gave me was so worth it!
 
 
On the Saturday before Easter we headed to great grandma's and grandpa's for egg decorating, an egg hunt, and some other fun family stuff.
 
Aunt Lai and Little Miss...
 
 
Egg decorating...
 
 
 
 
Everyone joined in...
 
 
Egg hunt...
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

After the egg hunt we had our First Annual Family Egg Throwing Contest
 
The Hubsters throw...
 

 
 
My throw...
 
 
I totally won the girls competition!  Oh Yeah!!!  Look at that form!
 
I won a gift card for McDonalds. 
 
Little Man won the gift card for the kiddos.
 
We totally represented! 
 
The hubster did not win.
 
However- there was a college baseball player there so I'll cut him some slack.
 
The Family...
 

 
Easter morning goodies... When I went back to look at my pictures of the morning I realized Little Man was in his undies- so none of him- Bummer.
 
 
The Fam...
 
 
 My littles...
 
 
My reality...
 
 
 Ahhhh...
Little Miss Cutie Pie and The VERY handsome hubbinator...
 
 
The hubs with his brother and sister...
 
 
 
We clean up pretty good right?!.
 
It was a Fabulous Easter.
 
The BEST part?...
 
 
Have a great day!

Fun Times With Little Miss Cranky Pants

I feel like I've been super busy here lately, but in all honesty I'm not sure I have anything to show for my busyness. 
 
How does that happen?
 
Little Man is playing soccer, baseball, is busy with homework, church, and has been playing basketball like crazy!
 
Just keeping up with him is wearing me out- add a 5 year old Little Miss Sassy Pants, a busy hubby, and a newborn to the mix and it's Crazy Town to the max around here!
 
However, even with all the busyness we've managed to find a few moments for some fun...
 
I just love Little Miss' style...
 
 
 
Here lately you won't find this guy doing anything else but playing some sort of sport. 
 
Think of the most competitive person you know- now mutliply by 10 and that's this guy...
 

His form is coming on pretty nicely...


 
 
This girl can get MEGA frumpy in no time flat.
 
She wants what she wants and if it doesn't go just so- usually a melt down is soon to follow.
 
It starts like this:
 
 
Usually includes some of this:
 
 
And usually ends in some of this: 
 
 
Luckily it wasn't anything a yummy snack couldn't fix!



That face...


And this one...


They make my heart melt.

Thank goodness for the moments when we get to slow down and I get to really enjoy my munchkins!

I'm one lucky mama!
