Mommy daughter date to the pumpkin patch

Nash was at school doing his own pumpkin patch fun, so Laine and I took a trip to another pumpkin patch to hang out with some friends.  It was really hot that day, but we managed to have fun anyways. 

 the best group shot I got...kinda hard with so many kiddos

 sister girl

 she was so mad she couldn't climb the haypile like the older kids..this is the beginning of a pout

 and this is the end. poor girl

 she climbed all the way to the top by herself and slid down all alone!

 weeeeeee

 let's go again"!

 this is Reese and Laine.  Reese is obviously staking claim.  you can almost hear her saying "mine!"

 kisses for Charlie

 and Snoopy

 eating guac like her daddy-by the spoonful!

Playing Catch-Up

This blog post title probably appropriately describes every one of my yet to be posted posts.  I'm quite certain that "playing catch up" is what I will be doing for....the next 5 years!  Anyway, here are some pics I managed to remember to take over the past few months.

 Laine being Laine, she lounges with the best of them

 Nothing makes a little boy smile like a naked barbie doll

 Laine decided she needed to wear her headband this day

 a trip to the Zoo!

 standing up in the stroller to look at the elephants

 a stop for a little snack

 love this little girl

 they both thought the fish tank was pretty cool

 hanging out with the turtle

 Another Zoo day with Poppy and Mim

 up close and personal

 "trying"' to direct L the way we want her to go...haha

 catching a ride on the gator

 this pic pretty much sums up Laine's personality

showing the kangaroo some love

the kids are enjoying the wood floors a lot. Nash loves pushing Laine around on their riding toys.  The second video is Nash doing his "humonga" truck dance. He is obsessed w trucks right now and probably watches that same show 5 times a day and more if we would let him!

I'm a bad blogger!

 she insisted on the hat this particular day

 having fun decorating w stickers

 Nash loving the wood floors in the new house

 isn't he pretty?

 my daughter is so random.  She is reading some mail and wearing some random bib she found.

I have been a terrible blogger and picture taker these past few months.  Between moving and being pregnant my energy level is less than zero and it's pretty much all I can do to make it through the day-much less think about pics and uploading them. ):  I'm sorry, I will get better.  And if you had no idea about the two big life changers that I mentioned above-I will eventually get to them too! I just need to post some pics and videos for now so my father doesn't disown me!

It's summertime!

 sandbox and a waterhose=happy babies

 Laine shoveling some water

 taking time out for a potty break-she is not potty training, but loves to do anything bubba does

 doing a little art project

 Nash was so excited!

 she had way more fun painting herself

 peek-a-boo

 inspecting his masterpiece

 a little paint mustache

 my crazy daughter-she looks like a butcher, she loved painting herself, as you can see

trying unsuccessfully to put on Daddy's boots.  She worked at it for a while

Hi all-  Yes, my children do have clothes! haha. .  it's so much easier to let them go naked now though.  Especially now that Nash is potty training.  We have the pee pee thing down really well. We just need to work on the other one ):   The kids are having a lot of fun in the sun right now and are getting some pretty good tans, especially Laine. She has turned into a little indian and definitely has her Daddy's complexion.
