Roses

Is this a calander picture or some nursery advertisement?

Nope, its a rose that I grew and my hubby captured on film. Impressive huh. I'm proud of myself. Its amazing what a little fertilizer can do. Even when I'm not changing diapers I'm still dealing with poo, I never would have imagined my life turned into this. :)

Last Day of Mom School

This was the last day of mom school. Z for zoo and "zee end" Look at those faces concetrating. One of the best parenting decisions I have participated in thus far of my mom career was mom school. We got together 2x a week with these four little boys.

On our last day I hosted an alphabet egg hunt. With a different letter on each egg. Do these boys look excited or what?

They all ended up with full bags and a knowledge of the alphabet.

I'm a Bad Mother

So after a great time at Sea World, I was feeling like a great mom. We got out of the house and had an adventure. Then I was humbled. Look at these little hands.

I put sunscreen on everyone, hats were worn, MJ was in the carrier all day with a hat, I thought we were all covered. I forgot about her hands, they were hanging out in the sun all day. She ended up blistering and peeling. Poor little girl with the bad mother.

Sea World

We have passes to Sea World this year. These are some of the highlights:

Giant Groupers

Starfish

Stingrays

Dolphins

and of coarse Shamu

Easter pt 2

For Easter this year we may have gone a little overboard. We only had five children yet we ended up with over 300 eggs. You know you have too many eggs when the children pick and choose which eggs they want. It was a great day.

Easter pt 1

The boys had a great time coloring eggs this year. We taught dad the eggs in bowls tradition. Mj did not enjoy it very much as seen below. But it was fun spending time with Grandpa.
