Pumpkin Patch Craziness 2014

I thought it had been way too long since the last update, even if this is just for our family it is time to start posting again.  So much has changed since I have been in the blogging world.  We have moved, bought two new vehicles, the kids are 5 and in Kindergarten, and Logan has an electronic wheelchair.  Like I said it has been way too long and I am trying to focus on making a point of updating more often to keep this for the kids to have.

This past weekend we took the kids to a pumpkin patch which was overwhelming for both Brandon and I due to the amount of people. Still not sure how we survived without medicating ourselves or losing a child. 

You’d think I would have all the photo taking opportunities down like a science by now however I forgot to get a family photo and a photo of all three kids together. It was nice to be able to go with family and have other kids with the girls.

Lizy was not in the best mood in jail, go figure. Madi Belle on the other hand was having a blast.

Bouncing fun, the girls could live in these bouncy things.  I always have to close my eyes and pray they don’t get germs from them as this is still so BIG for me.

We had to have a photo with Harry Potter

Family! Daylen and Darren were thankfully there and the girls were so happy to see them.  Thanks Brian and Danielle for meeting us there.

Through the hay maze girlies…

They survived yet our girls hair had a few issues with the hay and the humidity.

This was the attitude we had from Logan pretty much the entire time except…

Riding the train, the only happy time Logan had.  Look at that gorgeous face!

Poor Daylen got stuck with both girls in that thing, she sure is a trooper.

Annnddd they are done.

Logan guarding the largest pumpkins we could find.  Poor dude didn’t make it to T-ball he was so tired.

 

Hope y’all enjoyed the little update.  I am hoping to be back on very soon.  Happy Halloween.

Field Day for Logan

The end of another school year has come and I did not write a single post throughout the year.  I have been horrible at keeping up and trying to stay updated with all that has been going on with the kids. 

Field day was fun, Elizabeth and Madison went with me to Logans school which made them oh so happy.  Everyday the girls are not in school they ask to go get Logan and go to class with him.  I absolutely LOVE their want for learning it makes me feel that I am doing something right.

When we finally arrived (late) they were eating donut holes which is a favorite in our home so of course we just had to partake. The first stop for field day was the carnival area.

A big thank you to one of the teachers for these photos.

The rest are from my phone, what would we do without the camera on our phone?!  I would be lost anymore since I cannot find my charger to my small digital camera and do not feel like carrying my large Nikon around everywhere, yep getting lazy.

Lizy on her favorite thing at carnivals, anything that bounces.

Madi Belle has a new love  of small thrills, some things Lizy does Madi will now do.

I have also decided I could use a bounce house at home to burn off some energy.  I did not let Logan in nor did I get in with him at the school, this is one I was not prepared for.

 

On to the next phase were the races, I do not have any photos of Logan as I was pushing or carrying him here.  The girls did get to join in the fun and I was able to sneak in a few photos.

Nap time anyone…

This was a Tuesday, two days prior to Logans last day of school. Shortly after he arrived home he had speech therapy when Hannah, Logans attendant, noticed Madison was not looking so well.  This started a terrible string of illness in our home.

Madison all of a sudden had a fever of 103.7, crazy!!!!  She slept the next couple days and was able to return to school that Friday.

Unfortunately Friday I received a call from the girls preschool that Elizabeth had complained of a headache and had a fever of 103.4. It was a long week and an even longer weekend with Logan getting a low grade fever and unhappy kiddos.

We are extremely thankful everyone is feeling better now and that it was just a virus doing circles in the house.  Logan could not afford to get sick, I will let you know about that in the next post.

Hope you enjoyed the photos and the little update.

Kite Flying

I have been horrible at keeping up with the blog, even though I promise myself every week I am going to do at least one to catch up.  My new goal is to get caught up between now and Thanksgiving with all the activities and growing that has been happening around here.  This blog is for our not so little toddlers to see and use as a baby book in the future.

This past weekend we had a blast with the kids, especially when we went down to the park to fly our kites.  Earlier this summer the girls had fun with kites and have been begging to do it again.  The temps were finally cool enough and we had just enough wind.

They are getting too big

The girls with their princess kites, they rock!

Lizy had my phone and took a couple photos.  I had to share to show how good she did!

Lizy was ready to ride bikes again while Logan and Madi Belle were in heaven.

Brandon is a great teacher for the kids

Madison liked to let all the string out so Brandon had to chase a kite or two down.

Awesome job buggy!!!

Logan held on and pulled back for about 10 minutes without his kite falling.  Seriously proud that my little man is such a big boy.

Refusing to let his sisters or Brandon help or come near him.  I got this!

It does not get better…

Love and hugs!
