Kayden's Birthday Party

It was a funny afternoon to say the least. We didn't take Bentley because he was cranky and needed his nap so I was to be called when he woke up to come and get him but sadly we were home before he got up. He didn't miss too much though and I was able to just relax since I could trust Jax to stay nearby.

We got to the party and Kayden ran up to Jaxton and hugged him. It was so sweet and I thought it meant he was in a good mood. HA! I went in the garage and Jax stayed out to play. Maybe five minutes later my sister came in with Kayden crying and when we asked what was wrong we were told he was in a time out for hitting Jaxton with the golf club. Surprisingly Jax never came in to tell me. After Kayden went back to play he got in trouble for throwing the club and Jax! Apparently he didn't want to play with him as much as he made it seem when we first got there! Oh well, Jax made friends with Ayva instead! Oh and during all of this Korbin was snuggling with my mom

Watching Jody make faces at him

Jax and his new buddy

So then came cake time...Jax didn't want to come in at first but then he came to watch Kayden blow out his candles....which he did fine with until everyone sang Happy Birthday!

He did NOT want the attention to be on him!

He sure didn't care though lol

Then Kayden decided he had to have candles on the other cake (there was one white and one chocolate) so he was a little happier that time since there was no singing

Getting the last one!

Sleeping through all the fun

Hiding while Sam cut the cake LOL

He didn't even want to open his presents...the poor kid didn't take a nap so he was cranky. He really isn't like that all the time! Here are just a few more

Jax after his cake

My dad hates pics

Me and my baby

 Today's theme was "bottle" so I took a pic of one of Grandma's old ones:)

I can't draw!

When I saw today's photo theme I thought "oh geez...this should be good." I seriously am nowhere near an artist when it comes to drawing. Sure I can doodle here and there but put on the spot saying something you drew, when there's nothing old and random laying around, let's just say it's interesting. So while Bentley and I were coloring this afternoon I drew a family picture for him:)

Yes the sun is huge and misshaped...I had a helper lol

Well Korbin is fussy and we've been busy tonight so I suppose I'll go lay down with him. Busy weekend ahead so I'll have pictures of Kayden's birthday party (I can't believe that kid is already 3!) and Korbin's baptism!

Lazy Day

This morning started out a little crazy. While getting Jax ready for preschool it started to thunder pretty loudly so I tried to hurry him out the door before the heavy rain followed. It just started sprinkling as we walked out to the car and by the time I was less than a mile away from home it was pouring so hard I couldn't see the road! We made it to preschool on time, but the way home was more interesting. A ton of the roads flood in town when it rains a lot and fast...so I had to turn around three times to avoid flooded roads and go clear out of my way to get back home!

I had a lot planned to accomplish today...but none of it got done. I guess you could say the rainy day set my mood. I did get in a lot of snuggles and some play time with all of the kids on their own which was nice.

I did manage to have a few hours to myself this evening:) My parents took the boys so I could go watch The Hunger Games. I loved the books and heard good things about the movie too. Toad was sleeping so I had no problem going alone. It actually was pretty good and it was nice seeing a movie that followed the book! The only bad part is I love the popcorn but it always makes me sick...and I can't not have some when I go! So now I feel crappy again.

There really is nothing else to talk about from today...it's just been really laid back (well as much as it can be with three kids) and now I'm just snuggling with Korbin while Jaxton drives me crazy watching stupid movies before he falls asleep.

The theme for today was "orange." I used the first orange thing I spotted

If I Had a Million Dollars...

If I ever win the lottery, the first thing I will do is hire someone to do my laundry! This morning I woke up to Korbin spitting up all ovter me, my sheets, and my comforter...so laundry started bright and early. Sadly it took me most of the day to finish it too since I usually do laundry once a week. I can handle washing and drying it but I hate folding and putting it away! Which is why the putting away part is waiting til tomorrow...along with going through all of the boys' clothes that are too small. That should take a good part of my day!

Jaxton had his first dentist appointment today...I was sitting around holding Korbin when the dentist office called saying Jax had his appointment at 10...it was already 10:15. Oops! They asked if I could still make it and so I hurried and threw Korbin in the carseat, dressed Jax and myself, and asked Grandma to watch Bentley. Needless to say, I was not too excited for this appointment.

As expected, Jaxton hated it. He does not like people he doesn't know touching him at all and especially not looking at his mouth, eyes, or ears. I had to hold him down while he cried so they could clean his teeth and count them. This made Korbin cry because Jax was throwing such a fit and I couldn't comfort either one:( Once the hygenist was done I got Korbin calmed down quickly (Jax was instantly fine again) and we waited for the dentist. Once he came in Jax was a little better but was not thrilled at all. He was happy to leave with 3 stickers and a new toothbrush though!

Before the torture

Nice shiny teeth!

All the goodies!

After naps we went out to play with bubbles for a bit. I got them (well the Easter Bunny did) quite a bit of bubbles for Easter and since it was nice out we took some of them out. They would stay out there all day if I'd let them! Korbin even went out for just a little bit to get some sun time!

And now for today's theme...hair. At first I thought "why couldn't this be Friday when I get mine done?" but then I thought that I have Bentley and he's always good for an interesting hairdo! It doesn't matter how often I comb it, wet it down, or wash it...his hair is just crazy!

Another quick post...

I had planned on posting a lot more to go with today's picture but I don't feel great at all right now and Korbin doesn't want me to put him down so posting is more difficult...so it's going to be short.

Today's theme for the day was "something you dislike" and I decided that I was going with my kids being upset. Even when it's something unreasonable with the older two I hate them being upset, but especially with Korbin when I don't know what's wrong:(

I am off for the next 5 days so I may throw in a couple of extra posts:)

Flower

Today's post will be quick as I have Jaxton throwing a fit upstairs because he can't play Lego Batman all night and it took forever to get Korbin to sleep so I don't want him to wake up. I have pictures uploading so I can't take the laptop upstairs since it's hooked up to my external. Not much to say for the day anyway:)

The photo theme today was "flower."

A Day with Mr Bentley

 I decided that since Bentley is my wild child I would keep track of what he does all day just to show people that when I say I don't have time to do something....I'm not kidding! Keep in mind I also have two other needy children. Today Jaxton decided he wasn't napping again and Korbin was more fussy than usual so it was interesting. I also didn't record literally everything but quite a bit...it just wasn't possible to remember it all with keeping up with all three of the monsters!

Side note: He is in pajamas all day because daddy bought new ones this morning and so both boys had to have them on

7:30ish-Bentley wakes up. I was trying to get a little more sleep in since Jax had gotten up before 7 and daddy was home so Daddy got him out of bed...but he came to get me up too.
7:45-Breakfast and changed into new pajamas Daddy just brought home
8:00-I was sitting at the table posting my late blog from last night and realized he was getting into something in the pantry. Seconds later he came out with a bowl filled with cookies and covered it with a lid trying to sneak past me. I grabbed it and put most of them back in the empty box and gave him just a few.
8:30-He decided to go and make a mess of the rest of the donut he didn't eat earlier and got frosting all over his chair and the table
8:45-Since it was an early morning Korbin was taking an early nap...til Bentley decided to throw stuffed animals in the bassinet for him and of course woke him up.
9:00-Bentley was quiet in the kitchen so I got up and come around the corner to this:

 He was licking frosting from another donut (they were put up after this)
9:05-He started bringing me movies that he wasn't supposed to be into. After he realized I wasn't giving them back he decided to start trying to put them in the VCR himself
9:10-Sat and watched Fox and the Hound 2 for a few minutes

 9:20-Went to the dvd player in the other room and got ahold of some dvds, then tried putting them into the player himself (without opening it first!) I'm lucky they didn't go in.
9:30-Went in the kitchen when he heard Grandma go into the bathroom and got up on her chair, grabbed the peeler, and tried peeling carrots for her.
9:35-Talking to Korbin and giving him kisses

 9:45-Running around the house in circles to try and get out of me changing his diaper
10:15-Snuggling with mommy while my lap was free<3
10:45-Pulled all of his books off of the bookshelf

11:00-Pulling cans out of the low cupboard
11:20-Tried going out the back door since it wasn't locked right away after letting the dogs in
11:45-Playing with the silverware set out on the table

Being a nut trying to get onto my lap in a weird way

 12:00-Lunch
12:15-Ran from the table swinging his fork and with mashed potatoes all over his hands (I had Korbin in my arms and couldn't stop him quick enough)

1:00-Nap!
3:00-Woke up from his nap but I went upstairs with Jax and Korbin to attempt a nap (which failed) so I have no clue what he was in at this time...but here's his bedhead

Way out of focus but still cute

 3:30-Calling "mama" at the bottom of the stairs
4:45-I went downstairs not long before and laid on the couch with Korbin on my chest...Bentley got mad because he kept trying to lay on top of us and I wouldn't let him. He got his own baby and laid at the other end of the couch finally
4:50-Threw his little chair because he was mad at Jaxton
4:55-Wrestling with Jaxton

5:05-Got under the kitchen sink and was going to get out cleaner (but got caught right away)
5:10-Got caught throwing bowls and coasters in the garbage can
5:20- Wrestling with daddy
5:30- Stole daddy's phone and ran off
5:35- Not sure who but talked either Grandma or Daddy into giving him a donut for supper. He thought it was fun to make handprints on the table with the frosting that was all over his hands

 5:45-Got yelled at for chasing the dogs
6:00-Playing with Korbin on his mat...then hit him in the face with a toy (accidentally) and made him mad

6:15-Cuddling with daddy
6:30-Trying to go out the back door again
6:40-Went around giving kisses saying "ni-night"

6:50-Was trying to get on the computer
7:00-Got in trouble for chasing the dogs again
7:05-Went in the kitchen and put all of the dogs food in their water bowl
7:10-Got mad that I wouldn't go upstairs and give him a bath

7:20-Sat and watched Beauty and the Beast for a few minutes
7:30- Threw the cushions off of the chairs
7:45- Early bedtime because he was asking for it and was tired!

This child is just crazy sometimes! He is constantly in things no matter how much attention he gets. I didn't add in all of the moments where we were just playing or he was just sitting around actually behaving but they go in between the stuff listed lol.

Today's theme for the April Photo Challenge was "sunset." Well I kept watching for the sky to get some color from the sunset, but with the clouds it wasn't happening. I did take a picture anyway and thought it looked kind of neat with the shape of a heart being the only open sky in the picture while the sun was setting. The wires are all in the way and I didn't go out into the yard to take it away from them because it was raining lightly at the time.

 After a lot of struggle all of the kids are asleep though so I"m going to watch some tv for a bit and hopefully sleep soon also!
