Wow! Where Did the Summer Go?
I know it has been along time since I have posted anything. What can I say, life with a four and two year old is busy and a lot of fun. We have had a busy last few months. We have visited the zoo, Big Surf, swimming and more swimming, camping, and the kids favorite so far, Worlds of Fun.
It is so fun to watch the kids grow and do new things everyday. Some of the new things for Reid lately is riding with no training wheels, writing and spelling three letter words, and reading about 25 words now. He also got a dirt bike that he can ride really well. He played on his first tee-ball team, too. I can not believe he will be going to school in one year. He is ready and excited to go, but mommy is not. He also had his first visit to the ER and came out with 7-8 stitches in his tongue.
Mallie is talking more and more all the time. She has quite the personality. Over the past three months she has learned how to count objects up to ten, ride a tricycle, bike with training wheels, and drive a powerwheels jeep and gator. Today I walked into the kitchen and she had a ton of her baby dolls, telephone, doll sippy, and camera at the kids table and was giving her dolls water and having conversations with them. She is becoming such a big girl. Her favorite character and show is still Dora. She watches it at least three times a day.
As far as me, I have been busy coaching 7-9th grade softball and will now do volleyball. It has kept me busy and active. I only have 14 more days of break and then back to routine. I am not looking forward to leaving the kids again, but it will help us stick to a schedule.

Easter
We had a great Easter. It started on Thurday night when Chelly, Jared, Rylee, mom, and dad came to our house. We just sat around and relaxed all night. On Friday, the girls headed down to Osage Beach for a little shopping. That night the mom, dad, and kids helped bake an Easter Bunny cake. They enjoyed helping. On Saturday we heading to Columbia to my brothers house. It was such a nice day we took the kids to the park. They love going to parks! We finished the day with coloring eggs, egg hunt, and a wonderful dinner. Sunday we headed home and had dinner with Barry's family. All the kids enjoyed playing together.
Birthday Parties
Y
es I know I am a month late, but life has been busy. They decided on a Dora and Batman theme. The kids had a great party and loved getting all new toys. I might add that we have to reduce the amount of toys soon, bc they have entirely too many. City wide garage sell in the beginning of May, so I hope I can have things ready by then.

The Last of the Months!!
In a short 28 days I will no longer be able to say Mallie is so many months!!! She will be two. It is so hard to believe. She and Reid love to play dress up. Last night was the army dress up day. Not to many new things this month. She continues to talk more and more everyday. She still loves to sing and dance. We have enjoyed the nice weather this week and they had a blast playing outside. It went from 70 two days ago, to 4-5 inches of snow today. Crazy weather. We are ready for spring!!!

My Little Pirates
My babies are getting so big. Mallie went to the doctor today with another ear infection and weighed in at 28 pounds and 33 inches. She is going to catch her big brother soon. He is like 34 pounds and 39 or so inches. Only about 6 more either way and she has him. Reid had school today and she gave us an update on his learning. He already knows all of his letters and the sound each letter makes. He also can read 24 words!! Way to go bubby. This is only with four hours of school a week and a few videos at home. Well the count down begins for birthday time and the Garver's arrival to MO!!

A Visit to Coco Keys
This past weekend my brother, wife, and girls invited us to go to this new indoor water park. We had a great time, even though it takes a lot of work with two little ones. Reid loved going down the slides, the lazy river, and shooting the water guns. Mallie liked the slides a little, but she was mainly taking it all in and watching people. She also made up her own games as the video will show. It was nice to get away and spend time with the family. Thanks Jim for inviting us.

There Is No Job Too Big For The Gator
We had some snow on Friday, so Mallie finally got her first shot at sledding. The kids had so much fun. Barry got sick of pulling the kids on the sled, so he decided to hook it to the gator. It was fun watching them laugh and play and watching Mallie's impatience come out. You will get a sneak peak of this in the video.
The kids also have started dancing and pretending they are getting married to each other. She always wants to do everything he does. She is getting so big and talking so much. She now sings "Tinkle, Tinkle lill Star". That is how it comes out. She must be getting her 2 year molars, bc she always sleeps through the night unless she has an ear infection or teething, and she was up twice last night. I can't believe in two months they will be 2 and 4. Time just flies.
