Just some more pictures of the family...

Is this a great dad or what? Love those boys!

Scott and Cale--total daddy's boy! If Scott is home, he's holding Caleb.

Little Caleb--love him!

Ryan with orange lips

Ethan and Ireland

Do you think they are sick of me taking pictures?

Memorial Day Weekend

Chad and Bren came to visit this past week since Bren's dad was playing in the Senior PGA Tour here. We had a fun time with them as usual! We all went to the park on Saturday.

Cale's cute little behind, Ryan and Ethan

Aden showing Caleb how it's done. Love the little Chinese squat by Caleb.

My handsome hubcap at the park--Aden, Ryan, and Ethan in the background

Caleb piloting the plane

Ryan in his element--oblivious to anything else going on

Ireland and Cale

Chad and mini-Chad. Chad's looking a little more excited about the slide than Aden.

Scott and car wax...

I think this is blog worthy...We all know that Scott has an obsession with keeping our cars clean. If I ever can't find him in the house, I go out to the garage and sure enough I'll find him wiping down the car after it's been in the rain, vacuuming out the smashed bits of crackers, or windexing the car windows. Well, today I found him waxing the shower tiles with car wax. Only Scott would think of that! It looks great and the water beads up nicely!

Love the Spring!

The weather is warming up and we've been outside as much as we can.

Glad Ryan's got his helmet on in case he crashes because he can't see anything.

Scott doing a little surgery on our yard

Scott's putting Ethan to work...hate for his hands to get dirty while he's standing in the mulch.

Ireland is great at soccer! She scored the winning goal with just a few minutes left to play in the game last Saturday.

Ryan relaxing in the swing

Houston, we have success!

In case you are all dying to know (and I'm sure you are), Ryan is officially potty trained! He has not had an accident for 7 days (including at night)! All it took was 6 days of torture, and there you have it.

A few random pictures...

With Mother's Day coming up this Sunday, I just have to say how much I love my kids! There are times I've considered selling them on ebay (I think I could get a lot for them!)...but most of the time I know how lucky Scott and I are to be their parents.

Ireland and her cheesy grin!

Does Caleb even have a chance at not being tortured by his brothers?

Anytime Caleb goes missing...here is where we find him. He's a climber and loves the toothbrushes! At least he has been distracted away from the toilet!

Caleb loves being outside. He's happy if he can just look outside.

Update on Potty Training...

So this is day 6 and we do not have success. Ryan has spent a lot of time on the potty. The tally is 2 for 8. Not good. We've pretty much promised him everything short of a Ferari, but that is next!

And after a few hours, still sitting on the potty. I think I should have bought one that is not so comfy.

Ryan, looking thrilled about going in the potty.
