Crazy Kids- Crazy Summer

Things have been crazy. It's seems like we have been so busy, except I cant really say that we've done anything to exciting.
We have just been playing outside all day, going swimming and to the park. I guess that's whats been keeping us busy.
Ashlynn and Austin have been crazy lately. They are all over the place and it seems like I cant ever get anything done.
Austin is crawling all over the place and loves to be outside in the water. And Ashlynn is just getting funnier.
Here are some of Ashlynn's latest comments:

She went the bathroom the other day

Ashlynn: Dad, what's in my poo
Mark: Just stuff Ashlynn
Ashlynn: Are they crumbs

Then the other day she said to me:

'mom be quiet. You're going to wake up my children.'

She has been so funny. She loves to listen to Hannah Montana and she just belts out the songs. I wish she would let me record her.

Anyways, this last video is of Austin on the slip and slide. It's not very good but Austin absolutely loves it.

Bla.............

So my kids are being bad and I can never seem to find time to write a post so for now I'm just going to put some pictures of Austin eating oreo's and Ashlynn and her friend Sadie camping...

Licorice is YUMMY!!!!!!!!

We gave Austin some licorice tonight and he was in heaven! He was such a mess... and then he started rubbing his eyes... He seriously looked like his face was tattooed... or like I beat him... He loves licorice!

What's going on?

Nothing to exciting is going on. But here's what we've been doing:

We took a trip to the zoo with lots of cousins. It was crazy but so much fun! Ashlynn has been in to gardening and has been trying to help my mom with her flowers (scary).

Austin started crawling and is all over the place and into everything. He is getting tubes in tomorrow and I cant wait.

They both have been loving being outside and swimming! I hate days when we cant get outside!!

One more thing, Ashlynn has been adding 'ed' to the end of everything and it sounds so funny. She pronounces it like the name Ed. She has also learned the word 'stupid' and likes to say it with everything. Great! Why do they seem to pick up those things and not other things they should??? Kids...

Anyway, as always here are a few pics..... thanks Janica for telling me about this- I love it.

(notice Ashlynn's hair- it can look cute. too bad I can't do it.)

Rain Rain Go Away!!!!!!!!!!!

It's so hard to think of things to do with kids all day when they cant go outside and play. Katie and I thought it might be fun if we let the kids paint on cookie sheets with pudding. They had a blast........



Bailee Ashlynn and Tyson making beautiful pictures.



Ashlynn was a little reserved at first but as soon as she saw Bailee and Tyson doing it she started right in.......



Bailee wanted to give herself gloves...... what a good idea



Ashlynn was a complete mess.....



I think Tyson wins the messiest though......

COUSINS!!!

waiting to go to the park.....

Avery and Ashlynn



Austin



the kids thought it would be fun to pretend they were babies and so they all got binkies and laid down........... Whatever keeps 'em quiet....

What bugs ya Wednesday.....

If any of you used to listen to 1280 the zone, they use to do this thing on Wednesday where you could call in and say what bugs you.... well I know it's not Wednesday and i know most of you wont care, but I am so mad and blogging is the only thing I can think of right now to make myself feel better. So here it goes...

I was trying to clean up and as I picked up one of the toys to put in the bucket a freaking spider was on it. I hate those stupid things. Bugs, spiders, insects- their all the same... why cant they just stay outside like they are suppose to? Or better yet, why cant they all just die.. In my mind I like to think there is a special place in hell for them where they all burn. I hate them more than Kobe Bryant, and phil Jackson. I would give up my bad habbits of diet coke and mountain dew if I never had to see one again. They just make me want to swear.... I would rather spend money on killing the dang things than on groceries. i hate spiders so much. I swear they are of the devil.

Anyway, I am happy to say that we have the bug gods coming over to spray again so hopefully this will take care of them.
