Ah, water....




More fun at the sprayground at Crown Center. Carson was busy having a fit since I forgot his goggles....but the other two had a good time :-)

Fritz's





Carson does much better with another family. We will have to try this again sometime....he sat down, had great manners and he ate his lunch. Seriously?!

Dinosaurs at Union Station

This is a dino hand.

And these are pictures of dinos sizes IRL.


And this is Sophia (Carson loves her). They held hands most of the time we were there....that and their ears since the dinos were loud.
Carson and the dino smile.
Digging for bones.
Harper and Hannah.
Me and the boys.
Me and the boys and a big dino.

It is amazing how we jack up our environment. Not going to go all Ed Begley Jr or anything...but man we need to do better....makes me think of this crazy oil spill.....and will things ever be the same. I think not. Sad.
Outside Union Station.

The exhibit was really neat. Davis I think would love to go back and read everything. Carson was busy running through it. I learned a lot. Who knew that the dinos were furry and had feathers or that there were so many from China...or that the velociraptor is not at all like we thought...how do they know this stuff and how does it change so much?


Got Teeth?



This girl has gotten her teeth faster than our other kids. Six on top, six on bottom and four more on their way. Crazy.

Saving Cream. Seemed like a good idea...

We used to do this with the boys parents as teacher lady and I thought we should do it again. Harper was napping and it has been so hot that this seemed like a good indoor activity....




and it was...until I went up to get Harper up from her nap and came back down to find the shaving cream then all over the house. So, the lesson is if you do this at home let your baby cry until the shaving cream is safely cleaned up and put away!

Another day of chalk and chair...

Here is another day of Harper sitting in my chair and me watching her. I really don't know why I think I will sit and watch them play...it is silly of me to think this would happen. I watch neighbors reading books outside while their kids play or laying out and I wonder if that will be me...thinking not so much...

Pissed.

Really really really pissed. Not quite sure who all at yet...but long story short, Davis still has a cyst near his eye. I told his Dr. that we thought there were two of them and she assured me there was just one. This Dr. kind of was mean and talked down to me so I thought maybe I just don't know anything and need to go with it....but what I should have done was questioned her. So mad that I just trusted her. I was just getting ready to send in the nearly 3K we owe from the surgery (and yes, we have insurance) but now I wonder what happens if we do this again....do we start all over, can you get a do over on something like this and then the idea of putting Davis through this again just makes me sick...and oh the guilt.

So...in a nutshell, sad and really pissed.
