Sunny days!

The kids have been playing outside a lot lately!  We bought them all new bikes and helmets.  The boys are loving their "big" bikes and Maya loves her purple bike.  As you can see, Maya is really into the color purple lately.  

(this was taken a few days ago.  I love how Maya was so tired, she slept in her helmet!)

Boys will be boys!

The boys are all about skateboarding!  It's a little scary watching them roll down the driveway, but boys will be boys.  I still need to buy elbow, knee and wrist pads.  

Wonder when our next trip to the emergency room will be...

Speaking of boy stuff...

Chad and I went to see a MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) event last night.  It was crazy sitting close and watching people just kick the tart out of each other.  So much blood and I'm pretty sure we saw an arm broken.  BTW...the girl fights were the best.  

Tang Soo Do!

Maya was able to participate in Adam and Jack's martial arts class for buddy day.  Needless to say she LOVED it!  So we decided to sign her up, too.  Doesn't she look so cute in her uniform.  Can't wait for her to kick some a** :)

Grandma's visit

We had a great visit with Grandma Moorefield.  I failed to take any pictures.  I've really been slacking on that lately...

Anyways, Grandma's visit was productive, as usual.  Besides playing with and entertaining the kids, we took the boys to their martial arts class and Maya had ballet.  On Saturday, the boys had their "student of the months" pizza party.  I'll post pictures soon.  Sunday Nancy and I went to IKEA.  It's about 2 hours away.  We left at 8 am and got home around 3.  I ended up buying Maya a desperately needed dresser and bookcase.

Today everyone is sick.  I kept the kids home from school.  Jack stayed home yesterday, too.  I'm getting a sore throat and the sniffles and Chad is also congested.  But, whether the kids are sick tomorrow or not, THEY ARE GOING TO SCHOOL!  I can't take the whining and fighting for another day!

Another lost tooth

Jack lost his second tooth, not counting the one that was knocked out of his mouth 3 years ago!  Last night Jack woke up at 12:30 upset that the tooth fairy had not yet come.  I told him that she will come some time in the night.  Thankfully he woke me up because the "tooth fairy" would have forgotten and Jack would have been really sad!  He was super excited when he woke up to find 2 quarters under his pillow.
