Rrrrun Maylee, run!!!!

So Matt is always teasing Maylee that her teacher is going to make her come up to school early on Saturday mornings and make her run laps....she USE to believe him. So tonight on our way home from dinner, we started joking about how we were going to make them run laps at the track.....well, what did we do?....... We swung by the school's track, made them all get out and said go run your laps!!! Didn't think they'd get too far....Maylee was running on the track, Ella in the grass (she was in flip flops and we could just imagine the fall she could have and if you know her, you know she has a scream that can be heard around the world AND she isn't afraid to use it!) and Hadley was just going in circles (she had her light up shoes on, so it was funny to see all the little flashes coming from her feet). Well Maylee ended up running 1.25 MILES!!! When she finished her 5th lap, she said, "I want to do another one!". Matt and I simultaneously said "NO!". Her little legs were just going so fast, it was really cute. Here she is.

It's official....

snow cone season is here....a highly anticipated event with my kids. This marks the beginning of endless begging in most of our car rides to "pleeeeease" go by the snow cone stand! Cheers!

Little Surprises....

So let me explain this picture....we were getting ready to head out for lunch, and I asked Matt to change Wiley's diaper.  He so graciously did.  So later on, after we got back, I went to change Wiley again and this is what I saw.   It is kind of hard to see, but Wiley is wearing a 2t-3t princess pull-up.  But hey, it worked!  Just not what I  expected, but a funny little surprise for me!

Yummy....

Tonight we had a family outing to Joe T Garcia's....our table was crazy with little girls, beans and rice flying everywhere. Matt had just made the comment that one day we would miss all of this, when we looked over to see Hadley digging her hand in her water glass filled with water, rice and a nice floating tortilla. She proceeded to reach in and take a bite of tortilla and then take a drink (yes, from the same glass). We were pretty grossed out, but I'm sure one day we will miss even this.

This and that....

I just downloaded some pictures I thought I would share.  It is a pretty random mix, but I'll try to explain.

This is from Maylee's Kindergarten Valentines Tea.  It was so cute, they all dressed up in their parents clothes (girls mom's and boys dad's).  We had to send a place setting of our china for them to use....somehow it doesn't seem right that kindgertener and china should be used in the same sentence!  They had an etiquette lesson and then were introduced into the tea room.  Can you believe this room was decorated just for a kindergarten tea???!!!!!  Maylee was introduced and escorted by two boys....to say she was quite delighted is a complete understatement.

This was during the snow days.......so tell me what is wrong with this picture!

This is the day parents got to observe dance class...Ella was thrilled.

I downloaded this not long a go, it was when Maylee was a flower girl in my cousins wedding...I thought it was cute.

Big boy...

Sweet thing...he is just about to grow out of this carrier and then I don't know what I'll do! He was 12 weeks on Friday and weighed in at 18 lbs. I brought him with me on all my errands yesterday, and I'm sore today. He is really starting to coo and smile and it just melts my heart...loving every minute.

First "limbo" ride

Maylee had her first "limbo" (aka limo) ride today....and it was a pink limo at that! She had a blast, it was one of her little friends birthday at Sweet and Sassy. They had a blast.
