Tate and Brennen at Mesa 4th of July in front of monster truck.

Baseball and various...

Well let's start with a few pictures.

Now to add captions later.

Some pics

Here a few quick pics.












Here are some Easter pics at grandma's house. This was Paisley's first walking and egg hunt Easter.




I've been coaching Tates t-ball team since he was a few months too young. It has been very fun. Brennen is in coach pitch right now but I don't get a chance to see him since they have games at the same time on the same days.




Here is Paisley realizing she can get around easier once she takes the diaper off.




And finally Jenny sent this to me. Paisley is immitating everyone eating cereal for breakfast. She is in a monkey see monkey do mode right now.

Big girl

Here is Paisley thinking she is bugger than she is climbing up on our
small backyard picnic table.

What's new

So what's new? Too much to write it all down. And this is why I need to write more often.





Jen had her 30th birthday and we are just now wrapping up her birthday "month".




Paisley is growing up way too fast but it's fun while it happens. Here she is with a huge bow giving dad a hug. Around bed time she gets all cuddly and started to give hugs.






Here is Paisley with her first time getting her toes painted. She was fascinated with here styling toes that all day she would stop mid walk and look down to admire the beautiful pink toes.









Yesterday was Easter and Paisley had her first able to walk Easter egg hunt. It took here a minute to realize what was going on but once she got it we had a great time. We all laughed how Brennnen, Tate, and Lila figured out that the plastic eggs had the candy so they all started skipping over the hard boiled ones...leaving Paisley to hunt these all down. Overall it was great to be there as family.

Disneyland 2010

Disneyland 2010 was a success. I was not as thrilled as I could have been pre-Disneyland. The kids lived it and Jenny and I even with the stress of keeping track of three very active and independent kids had a great time as well.





At the hotel Tater, Brennen and I had a fun time. Tate was addicted to the hot tub as was I. Brennen spent his time in the semi heated pool making friends with everyone as usual.










We had three day park hopper passes and were able to go to just about everything the Disneyland side. I think tate's favorite rise was splash mountain. I took him on space mountain and long story short he was not digging roller coasters the rest of the trip. You should have seen his face when we were done. To his complete opposite Brennen was hooked. We did space mountain with him at least 6 times. He says his favorite rides were space mountain as well as California screaming, a roller coaster on the California Adventure side that goes upside down. Not sure what this kids idea of fun is but he seems to love the craziest rides. Tate likes to play it safe.



One of the highlights for me was on our third attempt watching Tate get picked for Jedi Training. I'll have to post a video of him fighting Darth Vader.



Brennen and I definitly got the most roller coaster time in.



Paisley was a cute as ever. She got to meet Cinderella. She wasn't as excited as we thought but she goes through her scared of strangers phase. Here she is playing with Daffy Duck.

Favorite rides
Brennen- space mountain, splash mountain, California screaming and Star Tours.
Tate- splash mountain, ferris wheel and Star Tours.
Paisley- Small World, ridding in the stroller.
Jenny- Soaring over California, car ride over and back.
Neil- California dreaming, Pirates of the Carribean

Tate vs Darth Vader

After the third try Tater finally got picked out of the screaming
masses for Jedi training at Disneyland

Out for a walk

We try and go for a walk around the neighborhood frequently but have
lagged recently. This time the boys are out on their scooters and we
are waiting for the light to change.

Paisley and Cinderella

Paisley has been this very funny Cinderella kick. It seems to be the
only movie that will hold her attention. We think it's mice but maybe
is singing. Not sur but she is very fun to watch.

Clean your plate

Little Paisley here is learning hoe to clean her plate. What's funny
is that this is not even her plate, Brennen left his pancake plate out
and Paisley gave it a quick run through.

Can't Sleep

I can never seen to sleep when I want to so I thought I would try adding this picture of cute Paisley.

Tonight was a great night with Tater and Brennen as well. Brennen is on a math kick and him and I have been working on addition, subtraction and even a few multiplication problems. Brennen is so proud of his million and billion addition problems we've been doing. Tater is there as well yelling out what does 9 + 12 equals and we yell back the answer as he wrights it down on his paper. He's actually getting better at his numbers

January catch up

I thought it was a good time to post some fun pictures. With Paisley I need to post daily as she is doing so many things now for the "first" time.





First falling asleep on the stairs by the stage at church.





First realized I can pull out the movie baskets and can climb up on the TV stand.





Not a first but I love the face.. She was having a rough day and this is her tired want to cuddle now face.





Tater still makes me laugh about the little things. Here he is hanging off the counter and coloring...he insisted on this so I say go for it.





And here we are with dads sun glasses waiting for Brennen's bus from school.





Brennen like always wants to help. We had our annual leaf raking party and Brennen is always wanting to help.





Just a good looking kid.





A group shot so we know how they all look together.


I need to get some pics of Jenny and I but the kids always look cute. Maybe I'll get some on this Disneyland trip Jenny is planning.
