You're eating WHAT???

Who loves chicken livers?

I love chicken livers!

Mom's birthday fun

Do you see the FOUR rainbows???
We'd never seen anything like it.
It must be a special day.

IT IS a special day!
It's Mom's birthday
(or at least a good day to start celebrating Mom's birthday!)

Fried chicken and cinnamon rolls on Friday...

Fried fish and strawberry pie on Sunday...
Hmmm.
Sounds like some dieting is needed before the next birthday...
Happy birthday, Mom!

Parents' Night Out

Mom and Dad are on a fitness team
for Mom's work called
Team Super Awesome Rides Again.

They all hit their million steps.
Now they gather for a million sips.

This month's triple date...
Jack Stack,
the Exit Room,
and drinks at the W.
3 doctors,
2 lawyers,
and a social worker.
Hmmm.
Shady characters if you ask me...

For Grandma Phyllis

Grandma gave us canvases a few months ago.
Mother's Day is the perfect time to finally get them done.

Weston,
hard at work on a flower vase

The finished product

Beckett and his "bunny dinosaur"



I painted the sky with fluffy clouds
and Grandma's hair blowing in the breeze

I'm happy with the finished product!

And, of course, Tucker's picture

Dedicated to our work!
Happy Mother's Day, Grandma P!

Resurgence of the trains

I just discovered all THIS under my bed!
Mom and Dad said it's been there for years
and I just didn't notice.

Mom and Dad didn't hear from the 3 of us for hours...

Christmas in May

It's tradition.
And we try to keep everything fair and even in this family.
We were just a little late this round.

Mom made me wear the Santa outfit.

The sobs stopped
but there were still some tears

OK, this may not be so bad!

The boogers just add to the outfit!

Yep, I make this look GOOD

Ah, no.
Too far with the hat.

Yes to the pacifier.

Check it off the list.
We've got Santa suit pictures.

A month after 1...

Oh, it's been a great month!

I LOVE being outside

I LOVE playing in Mom's drawer

I LOVE my pacifier
(but Mom says it's got to go soon...)

I LOVE the bath tub.
I crawl in by myself

In fact,
I like to crawl into just about anything

I'm sleeping through the night,
I take 2 good naps,
I eat whatever everyone else is eating,
I drink from a cup.
Oh, and I took off walking TODAY!

Life is good.


Especially with my new best friend Blue
(my blanket)
Cuter every day!

Fine Scouts

In honor of "No MOre Trash Bash" 
put on by the Missouri Department of Conservation and MODot, 
our Den cleaned up the road between the hospital
and McDonalds tonight.

Doing good deeds.
Don't we look like a bunch of 
upstanding boys?

Looks can be deceiving...
That ice cream went straight to our heads!

Coffee dates

I love my Caribou and a good read
in the morning

Add in an espresso bean...
that hits the spot.

It's kinda fun when this guy
tags along too.
He gets his style from me!

Just me and Dad

Everyone else is napping or taking a brain break.
Just the 2 of us

I better use this opportunity to get him!

Here I come Dad!
Slobber and all!

I love it when he gets me back

Dad's big race

Dad was going to train for a half marathon,
but who has time for that?

He settled for a 5K.
His whole firm was running.

We came along
to cheer him on
of course.

Do you see him?
The guy in grey in the middle...

There he goes...

While he was finishing his lap around Brush Creek
we had a very important job.
Wes and I handed out water
to the runners
once they were finished.

Wait! Here comes Dad!

Nice job!
He was a bit disappointed with his time.
One second slower than last year. 
Hmm.  Maybe next year will be faster.

We had our own race to run...

It was kind of mass chaos.
But I showed those little kids how to run!

Here comes Wes!
Dad carried B
and Mom carried T.
Well, that about the most fun we can stand
before 9am.
At least we got all our steps in today!
