7 crazy kids!

well it's been pretty crazy around our house the last couple of days. emilys in the hospital she's too early to have the baby and they've kept her in the hospital to keep a watch on her. in fact sydney's been telling people she's in jail ha ha. she over heard that she feels like it's jail especially em who is always on the go! so on mon. i picked the kids up and went to my parents for my dad's birthday party (i did warn my mom that i would have 7 crazy kids with me!) she was cool she is grammie them too..we had of crazy fun. randall picked the boys and i have the girls and i ended up taking presley also since bridget was leaving early the next morning. WE HAD A FUN BIG SLEEPOVER! the kids have been awesome i mean not awesome enough to ever have 7 kids.

10 of the thousand reasons why i could never have seven kids!!!

#10 i'm just not patient enough for all the questions.

#9 i would need a new suv like a club wagon

#8talking about kids in the car oohh i hate it when they unbuckle then can't get back buckled by themselves.

#7 the crying for no reason at all! and only lip gloss could shut her up.

#6 always having to follow through

#5 the guilt of having to hold all my babies, big or little!

#4 ruining your nap

#3 the restriction of the certain things you really can't do with kids, like going tanning i've thought about it,but you just can't do it.

#2 screaming!!!! i want a sippy in my milk, she has it a little backwards, but she does scream it.

ok i can't think of #1 i'm starting to feel guilty like i'm just complaining, but all of this stuff happened today,except for the nap they all took a nap at the same time. and they've been really good and it's only been 2 days.well heres my #1 they are so messy!

Tonto Creek & Cabin

my mom and jack decided to drive up to my grandparents cabin in forest lakes because my grandparents were already up there and they were wanting to hang out with jack before he starts school and real life again. so she decided to be the cool grammie that she is and bring the kids because what is fun at a cabin without kids. tatum was so excited because she has been in school now this is her third week, she was needing a little get away already and mom had already brought sydney and landon up the week before while tatum was at school. so landon had his shoes in hand thinking he's going of course, not today just the girls. so rex and i were excited to just have one kid. we did our usual saturday be lazy until it's off to geckos for lunch with randall and emily and kids. then we went and ran errands and did some shopping for new clothes for me. we quickly realized the girls are much easier to shop with than boys! we really had a fun day just hanging with landon. he's so much fun. well the girls got home late that night while rex and i were out to dinner with our friends cami and micah. so the next morning we heard about all the fun they had at the cabin and fishing at the creek. it's so fun to hear and crazy to see the pictures it reminds me of being a kid and doing the same stuff. i'm so glad my kids got the chance to experience, just a little of what we did growing up. we use to go up to the cabin all the time as kids. my grandpa would bring us fishing all the time we loved it. we wouldn't leave til we all had a fish. then we would have trout for dinner that night. i have so many wonderful memories of trips with my grandparents most of the places that i've visited are with my grandparents. (i will have to find some old pictures of us and post it.) it's always been a fun thing for them to bring us to fun places they still love disneyland. just a few years back for their 50th they brought the whole fam to disneyland. they are the best grandparents you could ask for. they have always known how important family is. i'm sure thats why my mom & dad makes it a priority that family comes first too. ok i'll stop now that's the most i've ever written hopefully it makes sense.






syd was so excited at first, but then realized it's still moving. she is so my kid!


don't you love sydney's outfit, the shoes she brought she had already grew out of so she's wearing some of carters i know she can fit carters, but not hers. i guess she was a little concerned about wearing them bacause she said they didn't match her outfit, but she always ends up picking comfort...that's my sydney girl...i love you so much.

grandpa helping tatum with her fishing pole. i'm shocked tatum liked it. she was quite interested in the gutting of the fish.

and jack your so cute with the kids they love you.

grandma with tatum and cody. even grandma fishes.

they are all posing for the camera of course!

woohoo they had so much fun!!!

Memories!
