Big Brother's are the Best

Robbie and Kathryn have been getting along so well lately.  Kathryn loves having Robbie play with her and no one can push her on the swing like Robbie. 

Tanner got his Wolf

At pack meeting this month Tanner received his wolf.  He has really enjoyed scouts and tries to make sure that he gets everything done .  Robbie also received a few badges for weeblos.  They both love scouts and are looking forward to Cub Camp.

Silly Girl

The other day we thought Kathryn was downstairs playing when she started knocking on the sliding glass door.  She had decided to run through the sprinklers in the back yard.  She was soaked and a little muddy.  So I took her dress off handed her a towel only to have her run and grab her swimsuit.  She headed back outside ready for some fun.  Then she thought it was funny to lick the window.  I didn't think it was funny but she had her brothers laughing hysterically.  This girl is always doing something silly.

Happy Day

It is a happy day indeed, we finally bought a new lawn mower that is self propelled.  I am super excited because now Robbie can mow the front the yard.  I am loving the fact that my boys are getting older and are able to really learn how to work. They are pretty good workers but it helps that as they get bigger their ability increases.  I love watching them work and he really enjoyed mowing the lawn.

It's already started.....

Love that Emmeline finally accepts that she is not getting her stick back.  I hoping that that even though the fighting has started they will be best friends.

Mother's Day

 On Mother's Day after church we headed to my mom's for a nice lunch and it was great to have everyone come there.  Rob's family even joined us.  I ended up spending all day visiting and the kids played.  Emme started getting tired so she crawled over to my mom and curled up on her lap and was asleep in minutes.  She was so sweet and I think my mom really enjoyed cuddling with her.  I got a few little gifts form the boys. I love all the things the boys make and especially love how excited they get about their gifts.

 

Emme's Birthday Party

 My little sister came over early to help get ready for Emme's party.  She was so much help!!  It is amazing how fast the preparations can go when you have a second pair of hands.  I decided on cupcakes and loved how the ice cream cones turned out.

We had lots of family over and ate a yummy dinner of hotdogs and hamburgers.  Everyone was so nice and brought something so that I didn't have to do all the food.  We loved visiting and enjoyed all the good food.

 Emme didn't really get into unwrapping presents, but she had lots of helpers and loved all the new toys.  I loved all the cute new clothes. 

 Kathryn also enjoyed all the new toys and kept telling me she and Emme where having a birthday.  She didn't understand why she couldn't have all the toys.  She was nice enough to trade Emme for the toys that she wanted.  Kathryn especially likes the new table and chairs for the playroom.  Emme has learned how to climb into the chairs and Kathryn brings her tea.  It is pretty cute to watch these girls starting to play together.

 Em's wasn't sure about blowing out the candle but luckily she had two little helpers to do it for her. 

 Yummy, Yummy!!!  She loved eating the cupcakes!
