Little Friends

I love watching my kids play and what is so amazing to see is them growing up! Cailen is a little BOY now, no baby anymore. And it is hilarious to see what crazy things kids come up with to do together. One of his BEST friends is his cousin Becca. Lately, they love to dig for worms....and feed it to my mother-in-laws turtle. Oh kids. Another one of his friends is Camden! Our good friends Brynna and Dustin Morrison have an adorable boy that invited Cailen to his bday party not long ago and it was just GREAT. I could watch Cailen allll day and just thoroughly enjoy his antics.

P.S. Does anyone else have issues uploading videos? Again with the technology. Yeesh. But I have tried multiple times on multiple blogs and it just simple doesn't work for me. Any tips? THANKS!

Another Reason Why I Love My Kids

They are just adorable!! And I loooooove how much they love each other! It is fabulous!

Great Grandparents are Great!

The fact that Cailen and Jex still have their great-grandparents around is AWESOME. The fact that they are close by is even awesome...er :) We get to see them pretty regularly and that is just GREAT! Here are a couple shots of a few of them:

Life Happens

So...I am attempting to do a bunch of smaller posts to really update this "online journal" of mine. I thought for a second about changing the dates that they posted...but really, who am I kidding. I don't need to have the post dates coincide with when they actually happened. I'm not fooling anyone, least of all me. Instead,  I'm keeping it real with the few month span between picture taking and post making. Real life happens. I'm blogging it.

Sometimes Technology Hates Me

I hate feeling dumb. But I've come to terms with the fact that technology likes to laugh at me. It really doesn't like me. I will be trying to do something soooo simple and Mark will simply walk over and boom, it's done. I had pushed the same buttons, typed the same thing, plugged in the same wires, whatever, but does it work for me? NOOOOOOOOOOO. Grr. Anywho, I'm reaching out for help with the latest. And it seems so silly. How can I not get this figured out? Ok, so my problem is with Pinterest.

LOOOVE the idea. I totally have an account. I have like 20 followers. Do I have any pin boards? Uh no. That's cause I can't seem to get the stupid pin it button to work and get on my screen here so that I can just do the simple "click"that will automatically copy the site and do all the work for me. I CAN'T GET IT!

Granted, I am still living at my parents (ugh,sigh, groan) and of course, can't figure out their computer. And I don't want to mess with it too much. But honestly. It can't be that hard. What is the DEALIO! So, pinterest people out there, help me out. WHAT THE HECK DO I DO TO START PINNING AROUND HERE?!? I want to get a move on, there are soooo many amazing things I see every day online I want to pin, but I'm a techno-loser. Help me out people. My followers could use something to look at.

(thanks followers, I love you all and I appreciate that you are my friends despite me not having a single thing to look at...it's quite funny actually.)

*Ok, so update. I went to try AGAIN to add the Pin It button and suddenly I had three! THREE! So I think my previous attempts worked, they just decided to hide from me. Small miracle of being persistent. YAY it works!

Life in the summer heat

Just wanted to touch base here on the blog to let everyone who might check this that we're still alive :) We have just been super busy with the lovely summer weather! For so long we were whining about our lame spring and just wanted to rain (and snow) to stop so we could have warm weather and now it's here and I'm melting. I haven't seen anything yet though,we're not to August! We have been having a blast, with lots of stuff going on. I can't believe the last time I posted was when Jex turned 6 months. LAME! He turns 8 months on Monday...totally missed the 7 month post. Don't worry, I took pics, so I will backtrack a little to keep up with the record keeping. Who needs baby books when you have blogs right? (Uh, wrong, I totally need to be doing those for my kids and am SLAAAACKING) Hope everyone is having an amazing summer as well and hopefully you guys will get a couple more blog posts out of me before something else catches my eye and...SQUIRREL! (squirrel= anything that sounds good at the moment and distracts me from technological documenting pursuits)

Just testing

The settings must have got changed so I'm just testing to see if I can still blog from my phone :)
