Special coloring book

G got these from Cyndy a year ago. Or maybe 2?

Special permission to color his feet red. 

Monkey see monkey do.

Jubi reading. Yes. 

This girl.  Tell ya what.   

Snuggles before our swim today 

The tank

So… Last week I was sitting at the dining room table and a chair with the tank in my lap. The chair had the little felt things on the bottom of the legs.  AZ straightened his legs out pushing against the table and moved the chair with me and him in it.... What?! For real though. 

Two teeth busting through the gums now on the bottom. And it looks like he's going to have a snaggletooth up top just like his sister. Blame that on the soothie plug. 

Tonight I went to meet Mollie for fro yo and Roy texted and said AZ was all upset. Not too surprising... He's been doing that quite a bit for the past couple months. In the evening. However - the really alarming part to me was the part where Roy told me he was standing up in his bed.  He found him with his feet stuck between the bedrooms and the mattress standing up. Stop the press! Pulling up?!

Roy said he laid him down and he started screaming and crying and stood up again.  

He did that a couple of days ago pulling up on the toy that makes music like Nintendo games...

Today at nap time I found him sitting up in his bed. I finally decided to go upstairs because he kept crying. Bloody murder.  His plug was on the floor. But he was sitting up!

..... And now – Roy just told me that he moved the video monitor to look at AZ's bed. Be still my heart...😢😢😪😪

No more watching Jubilee roll around in bed, play with her hair, fix her animals and blankets... I've been watching her on the monitor for four years. How can that be ?!?!

Here is standing up. And that is it really started wobbling and I ran upstairs because I thought maybe he was going to tip out of the bed. 

Do you know the gingerbread man?

Gabriel got to play the fox and his good buddy Zeke was the gingerbread man. 

"Speak a little louder I still couldn't hear you. Come and talk in to my good ear. "

Post show snack of gingerbread cookies. 

Sweet Mrs. Shields. She gave Gabriel the friendliness aWard

Uncle Jon walked in at just the right moment and saved the day. He was able to record the play

Sweet twinkle toes was a good boy during the play and awards ceremony. 

Gabriel-ish spring 2015

Yes.  He ate a sardine. And liked it. And how weird is it that Jubilee enjoyed  eating a sardine ! They definitely get that from their father.  

Uncle Steven brought this turtle by the house. 

He had a blast letting it play in the flatbottom boat. 

As usual though, we only kept it for a few days. 

Gabriel got to go on the boys trip down to Mason. He And daddy caught a three legged turtle.  

And just in case I never logged about this before. Here's the pic to commemorate the first time I gave my son alcohol... oops. I thought it was lemonade. He took a drink and told me it tasted bad. I said "well – you picked out lemonade so that's what you're drinking. "

A few minutes later he took another swig and complained about the terrible taste...

Then I decided I should taste it---- uh whoa! And whoooops. 

All dressed up for chapel. 

Rest time and a special visitor. 6/10/15

Sweet girl chatting and singing quietly while..

We do this...

Our house is finally on the market. Huge sigh of Relief. Praise the LORD!

Sweet whispers. 

A $.25 crawfish goes along way

And.  I feel terrible. Luke tripped and bumped his head on the mini tramp. He was here for maybe 20 min. 😢

Called in reinforcements. Rachel helped us out with sweet Luke. 

Completely konked out

We went to see Dr. Amar. Got some books at the library and then walked over to target. Came home and went upstairs to take care of something. Found her like this when I came back down. At 1:15 in the afternoon.  She had a traumatic experience at the playground yesterday after getting some mulch or dirt in her eye. And took a nap yesterday too. Before lunch. Same as today. I'm thinking maybe there's a little something more than just her Eye bothering her? Maybe she's just growing a lot... 

G wanted me to take this picture
