It's That Time Again!

The course is open and Brent has the "itch"!  




Shagging balls together!

That Boy

I have a hard time looking at Ace, scolding him, and keeping a straight face!  :)  He can be a stinker, but usually just because he likes to get a reaction!  His behavior is usually harmless...I promise!

These pictures were taken after nap time one day and he requested Doritos for his snack...my kind of snack too!  We ate them outside so the orange fingers could touch what they want!

 Mmm!

 Okay Mom...no more pictures!

 MOM!

 I know...I'm so mean!  :)

But after pouting and complaining for a bit...he was all smiles!  He is on his own timeline and definitely has his own opinion!

Sometimes a Parent Can't Win...

The kids all slept in this morning and Brent made pancakes for all of us...that's my kind of morning!

Daddy made "special" pancakes for the kiddos...Ace loved it!

But Finley refused to sit down by her plate and CRIED!

Brent took whipped cream and made a smiley face...and used M & M's for the eys and nose...

But Finley wanted maple syrup...so Ace ate both special waffles!  M & M's first of course!  :)

*Finley did get more pancakes...with maple syrup!*

Party!

We had Ace's birthday party yesterday...it was an afternoon full of laughter!  :)




I attempted to make Thomas the Train cupcakes...

We enjoyed being out in the near 80-degree weather!

All of the kids played very well together!

More presents!?!?
 



Happy Birthday to YOU!  :)


Time to blow out the candles!

And eat the cupcakes!


Ace loved his Thomas cupcake...

And Lucy loved her James cupcake!  :)

Taking a break to play with his new tractors!

Wait...what's coming into the living room?

Papa with a new John Deere tractor!


Loving it!

Ace is TWO!

Last Wednesday (14th) was Ace's 2nd birthday!  He woke up early that morning, so I excitedly went to his room and got him.  I said, "Whose birthday is it today?"  He quickly responded, "Ace's!"  I then asked how old he was...and he responded, "TEN!"  Oh boy!  :)

Opening a present before leaving for Lynn's.

A birthday smile for Mommy

Checking out his present...

A Thomas book with all the little trains!


"Thanks Mommy & Daddy!"

SMILES

CHEESE

Posing!

Playing outside when we got home that evening

Mowing a little lawn before supper!

Finley remembers how to ride her trike!

More presents after supper
