So i have been eating really healthy and we've made some yummy meals - because as your probably know I love to cook and experiment with new recipes! so my "diet" low fat & high fiber (weight watchers) haha its not really a diet just a healthy way to eat for the rest of life. Anyways i have fun coming up with new recipes! and you can't forget the fresh herbs from my herb garden!

Tummy Time!




Here's a few shots of Kane having tummy time. he's getting strong at holding his head up.

Working at the carwash!

this car wash was a great purchase last summer. the boys have a blast running all of their vehicles through the wash. and they always make sure to get the "tire shine" hah! It just blows up and the hose connects to it. it has parts that hang and spin and is like going through a mini car wash!

i love mud

Muddy Mess!




They say boys will be boys...always playing in the dirt and mud! It seems like Ike always looks like a mess in every picture I take. But if you go through all of the pictures when I was a little kid I too always have a mess on my face...So I guess Ike is just taking after him mom.

Strawberry Picking in 09!

Memorial day weekend the boys, grandma jane & I went on our annual strawberry picking day. Just like last year Ike enjoyed eating the berries. Ty loved playing in the dirt. Kane was great, mostly sitting in the air conditioned car! After we picked our berries we stopped at the aparagus farm...we bought 11 pounds of aparagus! We all love asparagus and this stuff is good! You can't get it this fresh at a grocery store! That's another reason I appreciate living in the country...fresh produce basically surrounds us - and you get great deals when you buy from the local farmer!

Bad Blogger!

I'll admit it...I've been bad at updating you all! My camera is full of fun pictures as we've been making lots of memories! Stayed tuned I will be getting all of these added to the site so I can get on top of this!

quick update:
Kane is getting big! already 2 months old now! Starting to smile & coo! I love this stage. He gets happy when I sing to him - any song- I am glad someone appreciates my singing!
Ty loves to be outside! He has gotten really good at pedaling his big boy bike. He got a flat tire the other day and zach took him in the garage to "work on" his bike. zach explained how everything works and they went to wal-mart and got a new tube and fixed it all up.
Ike's vocab is getting better and better and easier to understand. He is like Ty's parrot reapeating everything Ty says. He loves to go on the 4 wheeler -
