Just playin...

Seems like that's all I'm doing these days is just playing and chasing after him. Little Stinker! My baby Landon is 21 months old. I can't hardly believe he'll be two in just a few short months. ohhhh.... I just want to cry. I knew this time was just going to fly by. And sure enough it has. In the last few months his personality has really blossomed and has just become quite a character. Being the last and the baby I thought all along that he would want to be babied and do things slower than normal but not so with him. He's wanted to be right in the middle of what ever is going on. He doesn't want to miss a thing. And he's defiantly no baby. He's become very independent. He can do it all! He can feed himself, as you can see. He just thinks he can do it all. He's talking so big and stating to really put sentences together. His most common one is, "where's sissy? lets go get er" or "i nee see her." (this is Texan toddler talk) He also misses daddy alot too. One day we had to watch out the window for him. Just in case he came home early. He's just been so much fun. He had so much fun at the Fall Festival's over the weekend. Of course, he just mainly wanted "mor cany pwez!" Didn't care a whole lot about the games just the candy. He had his first Hay Ride and he seemed to enjoy it. He wasn't sure what to think about that. He didn't seem to mind it to much until we hit a bump and he rolled over in the hay and then he fussed a bit about that. He really enjoyed the Bounce Houses though. What a mess... Elmo is our whole world right now. We love love love Elmo. Anyways! Just thought I'd update some on him. It's usually just about the bigger kids but today it's just all about Landon! Whoo Hooo...

Trick or Treat....

I know, I know... I'm being a really bad blogger. I just have been busy. We had a garage sale last weekend. So that put the week before getting everything all ready and going through everything and then this week trying to recoup and put everything back to some kind of normal. Whatever that is supposed to be. Ha! But I survived and I think I'm done! Thank Heaven's. I'm even quiet proud of myself. Not only did I have a garage sale in which I was able to purge and get rid of alot of pure JUNK! I donated what was left of my baby stuff to some foster families and then the rest of my junk went to goodwill. I also took some of Landon's nicer baby clothes to a resale shop and traded them. So that was cool. I felt like I had a productive week. Actually got quite a bit accomplished. Ya know how it is. You don't always feel like you make a difference. oh well... Anyways! Also, another friend of mine got me hooked on Facebook. OMG... So I'm totally hooked and find myself always playing on there. Sorry! It's pretty fun too though. Here's a few pictures of the kids from last night. I took all of them but Hailey to a friends church, fall festival. They had a blast. Well, all but Allen. He was in trouble. I know big shocker, and couldn't participate. So he didn't have much fun but hopefully a good lesson for him. Landon was the best though. He had more fun. Although, he just wanted to dig in the candy buckets. He just wanted to skip the games and go straight for the candy. I got the cutest picture of him. It looks like he's looking to see if anyone is watching him or not. He had so much fun. They even had a baby bounce house and he had too much fun. I loved watching him. I didn't know what he'd do. But he loved it. His personality is really coming out lately. He's talking like crazy and he's so funny. He's just been so much fun lately. We've enjoyed him so much! Oh, and the scary mask! Yea the girls bought these scary mask to scare their brothers with. Well, it worked. Allen is now officially terrified of pigs. Probably will never be near one ever again in all his born days. Hailey has just tortured the poor boy with it. I had to step in yesterday and say enough. I mean you'd think he'd know who it is and not be scared but no, he's still absolutely terrified. To the point of blood curdling screaming and tears. I thought Landon would be scared but he just says, "silly girls." and laughs. Bryan doesn't say anything. He's trying hard to be really big and not be scared but he's not screaming. Sooooo... that's what I've had to contend with for the last few days. Well, I have to run. I have to get laundry done. In the midst of all this, the laundry has been badly neglected and so we are all fixing to go naked. Not a pretty sight, I might add. Hope you all have a great weekend.

Wordless Wednesday.....

Camping Again...

We went camping over the weekend again... I know you guys probably get tired of hearing about our camping trips. So I won't bore you the details. Here's a few pictures I took. I didn't take as many as a usually do. My batteries were dieing and after awhile they all look about the same. Landon is beginning to enjoy the whole camping thing more, except the whole sleeping thing. I'm still pooped. It's hard to sleep with a baby. He really loved the glow sticks and walkie talkies. He thought those were the best toys ever. ha! Have a good day!

My baby is a teenager......

My baby turned 13 on Saturday. I can't believe it. It was a bitter sweet day I must admit. I can't believe how the time has flown by. It really does fly by. We had a big day. She had her best friend spend the night and then we took them to Six Flags for the day. Let me tell ya, I'm way too old for that. Man I'm still tired. But it was fun. She had a blast though so that made it all okay, sore feet and all. It was Fright Fest too so she got double fun. She loved that, even though all three girls would grab on and hide behind me every time we'd even see one of them. Ha! It was quite comical. They insisted on staying to see it but were scared to death. Silly girls. I made her cake with that new fondant icing. It's pretty and not too hard to do but taste wise, not so good. Let me put it this way. Almost everyone pulled the icing off to the side. It's real gummy. It's just different. It's okay, it's just not mom's butter cream icing. So I guess all the rage is just for looks not taste. But it was cute. Hailey loved it. Did I mention she's a teen? Yipes! It's all down hill from here I guess or maybe the fun has just begun! he he... Guess we're fixen to find out!
