Popcicles and Fun

Yesterday was a really nice day so I decicded that after Tessa's nap I would let the kids have a popcicle for snack. I am such a nice mom and they don't even know it yet. Tessa tried a popcicle last year and really did not care for it and Paxton would only eat about half of one. I was curious to see how they would do this year. I was shocked to see that both Tessa and Paxton ate all of their popcicle and Dixie our dog even tried helping Tessa with hers although I did not get a picture of it. We had a really fun time playing out side even though I could only stay out for a about an hour and a half due to the heat and being pregnant. Hope you all have a great Memorial Weekend.

Miss Accident Prone

Well Tessa is at it again. It seem that the nickname boo-boo that I have given her is really hold true to its name. Yesterday evening Tessa was trying to climb our bar stools, which she has done so many times before, as she was pulling herself up she tipped the stool over on top of her self and landed on the tile floor with the stool on top of her. She was crying and I thought that she was just stuck until I picked the stool up off of her and noticed that she was bleeding. I called Chad and scared him half to death by telling him that she split her head and need to get home right now. Well it looked a lot worse than what it really was. We took her into the urgent care and she got three stiches above her right eye and also has a black eye from the stool. I did not take my camera with me because in a time of panic you don't think of it, so here are a couple of pictures of Tessa after we got home. I will post new picks of her when we go to get the stiches removed on Tuesday. Tessa is doing great right now, running around and being her normal self. Love to all.

Stuck in the mud

Ever feel like you are stuck in the mud and not going anywhere. Well that is how Tessa felt here. We flood irrigated around the house for the first time since we moved here and so this morning there were lots of mud puddles. This is what can happen when you take your eyes off of a 1 1/2 year old. They get stuck in the mud. Ha Ha







And this is what happens when you just lift here out. Here shoes stay right there stuck in the mud. This led to a whole new change of cloths. Hope all of you are doing well.
bye for now

Starting the Garden

Wow, two posts in one day.
Chad and I started the garden on Saturday after baby animal days. We got all of the green beans planted and some of the peas. We also got a few tomato plants, cucumbers, squash and corn planted. We still have a lot more to do, and we will probably do the rest this Saturday if the weather is nice. Here are a few pictures of the all the kids helping us. I hope that life is treating you all well.

Baby Animal Days

Okay, so I know it has been a really long time since I last updated. A lot has happened since the last one. Most of you know that Chad and I are expecting our third child at the beginning of December. Life has been pretty rough with this pregnancy. I have been dealing with morning sickness all day long and I am finally starting to feel better for most of the day.
Last Saturday it was Baby Animal Days in at the Eastern Idaho State Fair Grounds. My mom was watching Kris' kids so we decided to let the go see all of the animals. The kids had a blast. There were all kinds of animals. The kids also got there faces painted. Tessa decided she did not want to get hers done.Here is a goat that just loved attention.Here the kids are learning how to milk a cow. Don't worry it is not a real cow. Here is pictures of the kid's face paintings. The boys all got snakes and Brooklyn got a flower done by grandma. I am so glad that we went. It was a great experiance for the kids.
