Bed Time

This is what bed time looks like when dad is gone. David went home teaching and this is what I was doing when he got home. Trying to contain Kyra while holding Mattie and reading to Ethan.The big smiles are because dad is home. They sure love their dad.

Mattie Three Months old

I can't believe she is three months old. she is growing so fast. She has started rolling from her tummy to her back. She brightens the room with her smile. Of course she won't smile for the camera just grins. She loves her brother and sister to play with her. She put up with allot from all of us. Kyra will get in her face and she just smiles at her. Even when they are a little rough with her she doesn't seem to mind. We are very grateful to have this precious daughter in our home.

Ethan Still loves his little Mattie. He love telling her how cute and beautiful she is. he always wants to take pictures with her. he hates it when she cries. the other day she was crying and he said mom would you just feed her so she will stop. He is also still very proud that he got to name her and like to tell everyone he named her. We get in trouble if we call her sis he always says her name is Mattie. Yet we can call Kyra sis.

Smokey The Bear

Ethan was so excited to see Smokey The Bear at story time this week. we were not sure we were going to be able to make it due to the girls being sick. Ethan wanted to go so bad and the girls seemed to be feeling a little better so we ventured out. I am glad we did, Ethan has talked about it all week. Plus Kendra has loved smokey since she was a little girl. she still has a stuffed little Smokey The Bear from her childhood and doesn't really like her kids to play with it but she lets them anyway.

We had to get a picture with Smokey The Bear. Ethan said he loves this picture![below]

Our cute little Mattie enduring being taken out of the warmth of our home for story time.

Sunday Paper

Two weeks ago we bought a Sunday paper. David and I had basically finished reading it and found Ethan laughing at the comics.

Ethan Shaving With Dad

Ethan loves to shave with his dad. he has his own play razor. When he see dad shaving he wants to join him. He just wants to be as big as his dad so bad. He is always saying I am big like dad huh mom.

Ethan willingly taking a shower after shaving. He loved it and has asked to take one since. i love that great big smile on his face

American Gothic Miles Style

David thought this picture looked like that American Gothic picture.

American Gothic

Kendra made some really cute bows for the girls with some red ribbion and some old buttons and thought she would take some picture of the girls looking like girls. Ethan got in on some of the pictures acting like the studly older brother.They mostly just looked goofy.

Robot Ethan and Kyra

With two babies we go threw lots of dippers and Ethan was playing with one of the boxes. He decided that he wanted to make a robot out of it. I decided that I would be the nice mom and make him a robot. He was hoping it would be really fancy with the foil dryer duct. I don't have that on hand so I ended up covering it with plain paper and he was happy. Sorry I didn't get any pictures of the final product. I also made Kyra one out of a wipe box but she didn't like being in the box much.
