After the umpteenth potty trip avoiding bedtime and actually managing to use the bathroom each time, Mark was worn out with Liam.
Liam, however, was just getting warmed up. He was slowly getting dressed…very slowly getting dressed.
Mark leaned on the doorway and sighed a big sigh.
“Liam, please hurry up and get dressed.”
“I’m doing the best I can,” Liam responded. “But you keep whining!”
Our parenting is coming back at us already.
For those wondering, that is one of my old color guard (flag corp) uniforms…yeah, I kept them for this very purpose. I also have my old graduation robes.
I think the stained floor really fits with the scene of the sleeping princess…
Oh yeah, he’s tuff.
The dog trainer lady at the pre-show.
Silly Ace! He kept the nose on almost the entire time. It blinks too!
Liam’s sword and Dadyd with the boys. Don’t ya love his hat??
The motorcycle guys allowed the kids to sit on their bikes. They do that globe of death thingy that’s in the background, which is pretty amazing to watch!
Despite the look of horror on his face, he wanted to get on the bike (as a disclaimer: we don’t force our kids in to awkward picture taking, hence the reason you don’t see Santa and the kids on our site)
Dressing up as circus performers…some days it feels like we live in a circus!
For my sis…see daschunds can be trained (but apparently it’s very hard). They were so cute and she had a few very tiny ones.
And any guesses what Ceili Rain did during the entire performance (with a little break to eat)?
That’s our Sleeping Beauty.
Stylin’ and Profilin’
Liam having some fun with S.
I love this picture of our friend K-bug. Not sure if that’s a look of terror or excitement.
Sliding fun.
Not quite sure what she’s doing with her headband here.
Sneakin’
And climbin’
On the “choo choo” Behind me is a friend’s husband and their child…sitting with Zoe. Josiah’s our resident train fanatic and so, after he realized where he was, he was very excited.
Transportation sign scavenger hunt.
No festival is complete without a little sand art.
Driving the big trucks!
Time for another thrilling episode of, “Your Kid Did WHAT???”
Ahhh, yes.
Mark had a rare work day this past Sunday and so I was left alone with the kids and decided to get us ready and go to church.
All things were going smoothly. They were finishing up a tv show while I started on breakfast when I heard discussion about touching “mom’s things.”
So I ordered everyone out of my room and off to get dressed. Then I heard Zoe going into hysterics. I calmly walked back to our bedroom and find Liam in the baby bed, with the infant gas drops, opened. He was lotioning his body with the drops and had successfully emptied pretty much the entire bottle.
Yep, my kid did that and despite his best efforts, we still made it to church on time 🙂
Any questions what the kids think about her? As I’m typing this, Josiah is in my lap saying, “Ma me.” And trying to touch the screen.
One proud daddy. He absolutely dotes on her. God has truly blessed us with another girl to be raised up as a godly woman by Mark.
The Fam…boy, we’re a big crew!
Nite-nite
One of those rare occasions when they all want to be right snuggled up against one another!
