Tent City

We bought a family sized tent for this summers camping adventures. The kids were really excited to set it up and see what it looked like. If we're being honest, the adults were a little excited too!! Since there was snow on the ground we decided to clear the kitchen and set the tent up. It seriously took the entire kitchen area and it was still a little cramped! The kids loved running around it and acting crazy. We can't wait to set it up and use it outside - now to find a place big enough to set it up!

Jocelyn sleeps

While watching t.v. John was pushing Jocelyn around in the doll stroller - yes, she fits, kind of. After a few minutes she started to fall asleep, it was so funny! She was trying to stay awake but just couldn't keep her eyes open. Unfortunately when John took her out of the stroller she woke up and didn't go back to sleep for another hour.

Last night she slept for 10 hours straight!! It was wonderful. This morning she's thrown up twice. I'm beginning to wonder if it was because she was sick and not because she's entering a new phase. It was still wonderful, no matter the reason!

Oobleck

 Alexis and Madison were having fun dancing while I was getting my teeth worked on.

 Clearly my OCD about getting dirty has rubbed off on Madison a little more than I'd thought it had!

For Family Home Evening we made some Oobleck from the the Dr. Seuss book because it was his birthday! Some of us had fun, others not so much.

 Drew couldn't decide if he liked playing with it or not.

Alexis had her very own party.

*I immediately put them all in the tub when they were done. It cleans up nicely and without too much fuss.

Great Grandpa

Grandpa was excited to see some faces he knew. Grandma was sleeping so we let her be.

Madison mixed ALL the cookies I had with some popcorn and a little bit of water. I told her I was going to throw it all away and so she started stuffing her face as quickly as she could.

Madison made her own breakfast. She took all of my nuts and poured them in a bowl, not too bad, easily cleaned. Too bad she poured the rest of the milk in there too. It all hit the garbage because she thought it tasted disgusting.

Madison and her puke bucket. She didn't feel well so she took a puke bucket to bed with her. Yes, we let her sleep like this all night.

Fire Station part 2

 The clothes proved to be a little too heavy for poor Drew.

Even with small clothes, he still looks cute!

After the BYU game John, Drew and Gma and Gpa Wadley came to the fire station to take the tour. Drew had been so excited to see the station and because he went to the game he didn't make the first tour. Alexis enjoyed trying things since it was just us. 

Thanks Ryan for giving two tours in one day!

Josh

 Ryan - he put his fire get-up on as fast as he could. The kids loved it! It took him 40 seconds!

 Trying to get the kids to calm down for a group picture.

The best we got!

Uncle Ryan took Angie, Carrie and my kids for a tour through his fire station. They all loved it. Cameron was so excited that he couldn't quit asking questions long enough to hear the answers - it was funny. Josh was very concerned with what they would do if they were stuck at the top of the empire state building and ran out of oxygen or something. Overall it was fun and I think all the kids loved it.
