Working at the Car Wash

Sunday Aaron my Bother in Law was here and he wanted the kids to wash his car. I told him he had to wash mine too and my friend said hers as well. So we put the kids to work with some slave labor and got 3 cars washed. Needless to say it wasn't slave labor when the kids got involved. They had so much fun.

Diesel saw his uncle turn the water on and he figured he would give it a try. Can you see how happy he is!
With all the play some work did get done!
Rylee is actually being productive and getting more soap on her sponge.
Diesel on the other hand...


well the bubbles are just too much fun!

Rylee decided that the babies were having too much fun splashing in the the bubbles and she wanted to help out. Notice Diesel covered in them head to toe

Diesel figured he was good on his own. He would put his hands in the bucket and then fling them around and get bubbles everywhere. He loved it!

I think at this point he decided hey why not go swimming!

I think Aaron is the only one working now. The kids just had so much fun!

In all 3 cars got washed and they looked pretty darn good!

A Visit from the Tooth Fairy

Rylee lost her very 1st tooth on Tuesday. She was at school and in PE when it happened. She went to the nurse and they put it in a cool little tooth necklace. As soon as I picked her up she was just so excited.

Diesel wanted to get in on the pictures too.

Rye had great spacing in her tooth so it looks like she lost 2 but she lost her bottom front right tooth.

She wanted to bring the tooth to Taylor's soccer practice. I told her it was a bad idea and she was going to loose it. But of course she had to. She didn't' loose it at practice but she lost it somewhere at home or in the car. Taylor being the GREAT big sister that she is wrote a note to the Tooth Fairy for Rylee. The tooth fairy took the note instead of her tooth and left $1 in quarters under Rylee's pillow. The next morning she was so excited. It was soo cute. After watching Taylor for years loose all her teeth and get money Rylee joined the club. She has her other 3 front teeth loose too so anytime we could have a visit from the tooth fairy.

Halloween

The night before Halloween we went up to our local grocery Store. They had Trick-or-Treating through out the departments in the store. Then outside they did cookie decorating, Candy apples, arts and games. I met a friend up there and the kids got dressed up.

Diesel was heaven with is new Halloween Cat Bag that Grandma Nae Nae sent him.
On Halloween day the girls weren't allowed to dress up at school. Instead they had parties. Rylee had a dalmatian themed day. They made their shirts and her teacher made their ears. They went to all the Kindergarten classrooms and did different games. They played Bingo, Had Relay Races, Freeze Dance, Story Time and Made necklaces. It was very cute. I was able to help out and be with her through it all.

Here they are doing the relay race. She had a lot of fun and i must say looked so cute doing it!

Taylor had her party at the end of the day. They played some games in class. They were able to wear their school shirts and put Whiskers on to be Wildcats. Taylor even had a tail. She got so much Junk food at her party. But she had fun!

We had planned on staying in our neighborhood to go trick-or-treating and to hand out candy. My friend convinced me to go to her house instead. My brother in law met us over there and we all went together. Jer was at school and miss out on all the fun. :(

My Little Rock Star


Rylee was a Purple Witch ... She was going to wear the cute witch Hat but when I was coloring Taylor's hair Rylee wanted her hair colored too. Then of course you couldn't see her purple hair with the hat on so she was a hat less witch!

My Little FireMan

Diesel had so much fun. He thought it was the coolest thing that he could walk up to a door and get candy. He trucked along all night holding his cup and bag. By far the cutest Fireman ever!

Diesel's 1st Haunted House. He wasn't scared at all. Rylee was so scared she dropped her candy bag inside and Tay was pretty scared too.

Diesel found this scary mask in the house we were at. He wanted to put it on then give Madison Kisses. She wasn't having any it. Her she is pushing him away.

Here he is with the Mask on. Still a cutie!

Camping at the Lake

Last weekend we decided to plan a camping trip at our local lake, Lake Pleasant. Due to work and Tay's soccer game we could only go for one night. We packed up and got to the lake at 5pm on Saturday night. Aaron; Jer's brother; and my friend Shonna joined us. There were a few injuries with Diesel. But he is a boy and nothing major! It was a little nerve racking at first. We had a lot of fun!

For those that don't see us often. Diesel is a MAJOR daddy's boy. If Jer's doing it Diesel has to too. We have to have 2 of everything so that Diesel can be just like his daddy. He wants Daddy over mommy all the time and follows daddy around like a little puppy dog. It's so sweet to see their bond. Here they are looking at our camp fire.

Uncle Aaron and his girls

Shonna and I.... Yes Shonna was that cold. It was so nice out though!

Shonna and the Girls

Jer and I

Can you tell they are related?

Pretty much as soon as we got there Jer showed Diesel that he could throw rocks into the lake. From there on out that was all that Diesel wanted to do. He was so proud when the rock would splash in the lake. Yes he is throwing left handed but he writes with his right.

The girls wanted to try and fish. I am not sure if they knew what they were doing but this was such a sweet picture!

Uncle Aaron had to save to hook. It was caught on something. It was pretty funny. He was in the middle of the lake and he pulled out his Blackberry to check and send a text. You just can't leave technology

So Aaron wanted to take Diesel swimming. We stripped him down to his diaper but he didn't want to have any of that. As you can see he kept his legs up so that Aaron couldn't put him down.

The girls wanted to play in the water after that. So we left them strip down and get dirty... Mud Pie anyone?

The boys brought horseshoes to play. Like I said above Diesel has to be with Jer.

One of them would throw their horse shoe and Diesel would pick it up and carry it back to the him. It was too cute. He would try and throw it too. It was pretty funny. He would wind up then couldn't let it go at one time he ended up with it around his arm. 1 point for Diesel!

It was pretty warm out and Shonna and I found some shade while the boys got sun burnt playing horse shoes. Shonna's a teacher so at one point we graded her school papers.

Diesel is such a little man. It took me a few tries to get this picture. He has a new thing of not looking at me when I take a picture. He knows too. He gets a grin and looks away. I had to trick him for this. I asked him where the airplane was. What a Ham...

So although Diesel wouldn't swim with Aaron he had no problem going in with Jer. He wouldn't get out of the water. Hr loved it.

The boys took Diesel for a little over road adventure right around the camp. Diesel got to drive... Watch out student driver!

Rolling Baby

So the video pretty much says it all. Diesel is a ham. I was watching Rye cheer on Friday night. I looked over and this is what I saw. I had to go over there and take a video it was just the cutest funniest thing I had ever seen. He kept doing it over and over. He must have seen Tay or the other kids doing it.

GO! FIGHT! WIN!

We have a little Cheerleader on our hands. Rylee cheers for our church cheerleading program. All the cheerleaders have the same uniform and cheer for rotating football teams. There are 15 girls on Rylee's squad. She has a game every Friday night from 6-7pm. It's so cute to watch. Rye's on the youngest squad, the girls range from 4 to 6 years in age.

As you can see not all the girls are on the same page. It only makes it that much cuter!

Here she is at the Half time show. It only lasted about 1 minute. Rylee is in the back row in the left side of the picture you can see her in between two girls.
