Just Babies

Oh my goodness, they are so cute and I miss them so much!!  Saturday we moved Thatcher and Kyndahl back to Kansas.  They are now living in the big ol farmhouse that we moved out of.  I'm happy for them that they are back near their friends..........but waaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh for us!!  We are all missing them like crazy.  Harrison walked in and said ahhh bummer......Brent man isn't here :(  We've been keeping them almost every day for the last 2 weeks and we kinda got used to them being here.  Iley cried a little the night we moved them in........she was already missing them all........especially Brentley she said.  She told Thatcher she was going to stay there with them cause she missed that house.  I'm sure they both do,  it was their first home, and they had a lot of fun there.

These pictures of Brentley and Dawsyn were taken at our house on Friday before they moved on Saturday.  I asked Brentley if he wanted to sit at the table, or up at the bar......he picked the bar even though his chin is barely above the counter.  He was eating macaroni, and I was eating ceareal.............


 I got up to take these pictures and he was eyeing my cereal..........

I think I'll try Nanna's cereal..........

 yummm.........I like it.  He then proceeded to eat the rest of it.

 Dawsee watched us from the floor.

 Finishing off Nanna's cereal, barely able to see over the bowl!



 Those baby hands......that little neck and chin.....those cute little legs crossed.....oh I love this age!



 And this little punkin is getting more fun everyday!  She is so much happier, and smiles if you look her way or talk to her.  That crazy hair :)  She is a doll.



Such cute tiny feet......can you tell I have a thing about hands and feet?


 These are the only 2 pictures of moving day I was too busy to take pictures.  Finn was on the move!  Well with Finn, if he's awake, he's on the move!  He reminds me so much of his daddy!!  Darling, and sunny, and oh so busy!!

 Here I'll help sweep!

These were on Sunday.  We stopped in to say bye.


His hair is as alive as the rest of him!  What a doll baby!  



 More cute little feet.





 Iley got some ear rings and a slinky from Ash and El for her birthday.  She was quite pleased.




 He is such a ham!  Mischievous Much?


I'm Thankful they are all in the same place......makes visiting easier.....I'm glad they will grow up next to each other......cousins are so fun.....BUT......I'm SAD that they are 4 hours from us!!....BUT........I'm glad it's not 16 hours.............so I just pray they are happy and safe and grow up knowing and loving their creator.

Iley's Birthday and Other Stuff

Fruit snack party.

 Aunt Iley is so funny!


 This chicky's hair rivals Aunt Iley's for best bed head.




 Brentley has graduated to a stool............

 Now Dawsee is on the table. We go to great lengths to eat in peace :)



Iley's birthday meal of choice....Corn dogs, Mac n Cheese, and strawberries.  I added some veggies and grapes. 

 She really wanted yellow and white plates......but she wanted that ball hanging worse....and it only came in red or a minty green.  She loves green...but a kelly green, not mint.  So she went with red.

                                                                             
                                                    Instead of cake, she wanted donuts. 


Harrison dutifully made her a streamer curtain......cause he made one for Wren......he did request wider ribbon!





 This just creeps me out!!  Gwen, do you remember that awful movie "Silence of the lambs"....yeah.....this is what this picture reminds me of!   I have no idea why she had her ring in her mouth.

SEE!!!  LOL





 She didn't have many gifts to unwrap this year.  She didn't want gifts....she wants to stay at a motel and watch a movie and go swimming.  So she is going to use her money from grandparents, and from us for that.  She did get a new water bottle, some candy, and her long awaited, much longed for.....weiner dog.  Thanks grma D.!





Wren is BORED today!  She's asked me at least 4 times already "Iley home little bit?"  No my dear it's only 10:30 am.  I dread it when she is the only one out of school.  She doesn't like to play alone.

 








I'm enjoying this gorgeous tree outside my window!  Yay for spring!

 Although it is FULL of bees!
