looking for my kids? try the neighbors yard

and you can see why....

goodbye corn

our friend the corn will most likely be leaving us tomorrow. they started plowing the other end of the field today and i assume our end will come next....

notice anything different from the other corn pictures? he's standing!!! oh and the corn is dead.

deep thought or pooping? you decide.

she's got a little crazy inside her.

corn: week nine

i think this will be our last week with the corn pictures. i don't believe it's growing any taller anymore. click on the corn "label" below this post to see them all in a row. it's been fun!

standing alone

while Camo hasn't taken any steps on his own yet but this is definitly the begining stage. clearly he thinks it's pretty cool to be able to stand up by yourself!

corn: week eight

corn: week seven

i left my camera at a friends house last week so i'm a little behind with the corn pictues. these were taken last week (the correct week) with somone elses camera who just emailed me the pictures (thanks Erin!) tonight. week 8 will be posted tomorrow. it's getting gigantic!

corn: week six

corn: week four

here are the newly three & one year old kids in the field. the corn is officially higher then Cameron (sitting) now!

corn: week three

a summer food rut

what do you do when your kid only eats 4 things??

i've been feeling like with Mayden i'm just rotating between Hot Dogs, Spaghetti, Mac & Cheese and Chicken nuggets.... a preschoolers dream diet!

any creative ideas out there??

Corn: week two

this corn sure is shooting up fast and they don't even water it!

weekend happenings

so it's been hot as hell (maybe literally) here all weekend and it's not going to let up until Thursday. we finally broke down yesterday and put two window unit ACs in two of the 3 bedrooms. we put a blanket up in the hallway to keep all the cool air in the back of the house as we are keeping the bedroom doors open to share the cool air with Cameron (who lives in the poor AC less room). we figure we'll have the AC on at night because it sucks to sleep in heat like this and then turn them off during the day (but it is still cool back there because they were on all night) it's so unbelievable refreshing to walk back there... but then torture to come back out. anyway needless to say we've been in the pool a lot the last few days. what? you want to see pictures? of course i have pictures...


(notes about pictures... they are all jumbled up. some are from the Earth Fair we went to this weekend. where turns out i won 1st prize in a photo contest for this picture! oh and the one w/ the lawn mower... Camo is sleeping haha)

photo friday

my mom got Mayden a butterfly kit for Easter and i finally got around to ordering our caterpillers. they emerged a few days ago and this morning we released them. there lifespan is only a few weeks so i wanted them to have as much freedom as possible.

May trying to catch one that flew the coup


Mayden the happy girl

teething + common cold = bad mood Camo
