Blake turns 4!

Blake turned 4 on May 6th. We had a dinosaur party for him early, so Grandpa and Grandma Garbett could celebrate with us.
I made the most awesome cake you have ever seen!! All that matters is that Blaked loved it right?!!
Blake got puzzles from both sets of Grandparents because they know that he absolutely loves puzzles. Grandma and Grandpa Garbett even thought to bring a present for Brycen and Allie.  

Since we had his party early, I took the boys to JJ Jump on the day of Blake's Birthday. 

I think this place is little boy heaven. 

I'm so glad they are such good friends.

The Joys of Boys!!

Last Thursday Night I spent forever cleaning all the bathrooms. The next night I went to use the bathroom downstairs and it stunk to high heaven! I look down at the base of the toilet and sure enough a puddle of pee. So finally I got fed up with stinky bathrooms! I made the boys clean up their mess and threatened to make them sit when the pee if they aren't more carefull! Brycen said "no, only girls sit down to pee." I also banned them from using my bathroom.  I'm going to have one bathroom that doesn't constantly smell like pee, if it kills me!

Grandma and Grandpa Garbett come to visit!

My parents came to visit over the weekend. They wanted to see Brycen play in a soccer game (which ended up being cancelled) and help us celebrate Blake's 4th birthday. 

Brycen and Blake whoop Grandpa into shape.

Go'n for a bike ride.

 Allie has started this thing where she scrunches up her nose a sniffs in and out. Sometimes when we are playing with her she wiggles her head back and forth when she is excited, Brycen and Blake get a kick out of that. Jared has also claimed "dada" as her first word. He loves to sit with her and say "dada" over and over until she repeats it. 

Last week at play group somebody brought nail polish for all the little girls.  Allie got her toenails painted (with the help of another mom). I thought it was so cute, I had to take a picture of those tiny toes!

Adam and Eve

Blake colored this picture of Adam and Eve on Sunday. When I asked him who Adam and Eve were he said, "They were Sister Nelson's (his sunbeam teacher) first grandparents." Hey, at least he was listening!! I thought it was so cute, I didn't want to correct him!

Work'n Out!

I found Brycen and Blake work'n out just like dad. They asked me if I knew why they were working out and I said "no, why?" and they said "so we can get girlfriends." I thought I had at least another 5 years before they'd be saying that!!

Allie 5 months old

Allie is now five months old! She gets lots and lots of love from her brothers! Brycen especially can't get enough of her. He always says "I can't stand it, she is just so cute."
This week Allie got the hang of rolling over and she always likes to have a toy in her hand to play with. She loves it when we play with her and we can't get enough of her cheesy little grins!!

This picture probably looks a little scary! Allie playing with a tarantula! When you have two older brothers this is the kind of toy you get to play with!!
