The tomato snatcher...

So I was getting stuff ready for dinner one night and all of a sudden I was missing a tomato. I looked all over for that thing. Jaylee was being really quiet so I went to see what she was up to and this is what I found. I guess she didn't want to wait anymore for dinner!!

A little Behind...

It's been a little crazy around here lately, so as a result our blog is way behind!! I'll start with the older things first.
Like Mother's Day!!! I don't have any pictures I guess unless I put them in a different folder, but I got spoiled and had a great day!! Brady and Jaylee take great care of me and gave me some wonderful gifts!! Things I really wanted mostly which is great!! They made me breakfast (crepes with Strawberries) then I got to open presents and then it was off to church. Brady had to work right after, but it was a relaxing day!!

This is Jaylee's new favorite activity. She'll go and get a pair of Brady's socks and put them on. It's so funny to watch her!!! She's a character!!!

An Early Mother's Day gift...

Brady and Jaylee gave me an early mother's day gift. They made this little Wheelbarrow planter thing together and put stickers all over it!! It's way cute but I don't think Jaylee is truly ready to give it up!! She is a little possessive over it!!
Above- I love the expression on her face here!! She's really getting into this hammering!!
Above- This is why I think she's not ready to give it up!!

She was so proud of it when it was done!!

Look what Jaylee is getting now:

The Friend!! We had to renew our subscription and we decided it was time that we started getting the Friend for her. She was so excited when she saw it!! I had picked it up a little later and she told me "No, Jaylee's Friend!" So I guess she likes it!!


More planting...

So on Tuesday, Brady and Jaylee planted the rest of our garden plants that have been hanging out in the kitchen. Daddy put on his hat and Jaylee was determined that she needed one too but her swim hat is the only one that is remotely like his so she had to wear it. While Daddy set up everything, Jaylee played on her slide!!


Who wouldn't want to be married to this guy????!!!!!



Now all of our garden is planted and doing very well!! It's been really hot the last couple of days so we had to put up the shade cloth!! We have a couple of tomatoes that are doing REALLY well with fruit already on them. Jaylee just loves to be outside and water the plants!! It's her special time with Daddy that Mommy can't help with!!

Owl Family Update:

We were in Home Depot last night checking out a few things so I had to get some new pics of the little Owl family. The babies are getting bigger and are venturing out of the nest a little!! The mommy was no where to be seen, which I guess is a sign that the babies are almost ready to leave the nest, and of course the dad was an aisle away keeping an eye on the babies.

These pictures are a little blurry. It was getting dark and the outside lights had not yet come on!!

Mother's Day projects...

On Friday and Saturday, I was watching my sister's 2 girls and we all decided to do a mother's day project for their mom. Well of course Jaylee thinks she can do everything that all the big kids can do so she made one too. I told Brady he had to help her finish it since I wasn't about to make my own present!! It's still not finished!! Nikki and Lizzi's turned out really cute though and I know their mommy will love it!!


And after project mother's day, they got dressed and I made the girls let me do their hair. It's so nice doing hair on a girl that will actually sit still and do what you ask!! Lizzi's turned out super cute!!
Nikki wanted pig tails and braids so I did a rendition of those styles but a little different!! It was cute also!!
