The Tots Pick Up James From School

Yesterday the Tots and I had so much fun on an adventure

to pick James up from school!

Dane and Tyler led the way!

Drake and Mya enjoyed a leisurely stroll!

The boys couldn't WAIT to race to the bright YELLOW fire hydrant!

Here are the tots lined up from youngest to oldest!!

Funny kids!

"Drakie Dude"

"Mya the Bee"

"Daner"

"Ty Ty Guy"

"Jimbo Diddio"

 James took this picture of me!

Dane captured this little gem. Hah!

Miss Mya is quite the climber!

Here she is trying to get up the rock climbing wall!

She made it!

Here she is coming out of a slide!

Here's Dane being a little monkey!

James pushing Dane!!

Tyler loved to climb too!

Sweet little Drake!

Here's Drake sitting down to get some pebbles out of his "Pumas!"

Can you tell whose little face this is?

How about this one?

Haha. Any doubts as to who this silly boy is? :)

The boys had a blast exploring the tunnels together!

We managed to get a couple of pretty cute group shots!

One last stop at the fire hydrant on the way home!

WE HAD A WONDERFUL AFTERNOON!!

Two Sick Tots

Within the past few weeks-

we've had two sick tots.

Dane & Mya

Dane got sick first.

He got better right away and we were all really glad!

We miss his smile when he's gone!

Mya got sick this Wednesday.
Thankfully, she also got better right away!

This picture was actually taken mere minutes, most likely, from when she threw up.
I had gone in the room to pick up Landon when I noticed the cat had crawled up with Mya.
Mya is still a little weary of the cats, but when I layed Mya down, Bella wasn't in the room.
She had to have either been hiding or gotten in the crack of the door and went to cuddle.
That old meanie. :)
She did manage to avoid the throw up somehow, lucky cat!

So glad the two tots are both feeling better.
Now let's all knock on wood that was the end of that silly bug.

Meet The Burkes

We've got new friends!

Turtle friends!

Three little turtle tots to be exact.

Meet The Burkes!

The oldest is:

Tyler is 4 years old!
He will be joining us most weeks on Wednesdays only.
For the rest of the week Tyler will be attending pre-school!
He is a super great older brother and a fun friend for all the tots!

Next is:

Mya JUST turned 3 years old!
She is in love with all things Tinkerbell.
She dearly loves both of her brothers.
She has the sweetest voice ever and is so much fun to be around!

Last but not least is:

Landon is exactly 2 weeks younger than Jordyn & 2 weeks older than Ashlyn!
He has been working this entire past week on getting strong enough to sit up on his own!
I should probably mention that he's somewhat of a ladies' man around here.

Quite dashing, no?

He has wooed Jordyn with his love for the Cubbies.

Ashlyn loves their long chats...err....babbles!

We love hanging out with all of our new friends!
So glad you could join us
Tyler, Mya & Landon Burke!

Milestones: Jordyn



Guess what guys?

Jordyn can sit up!!!

{ok. so this actually started happening on or about August 11th. 

Sorry I'm such a slacker with these updates!!}

I don't know if you can recognize it-

but this look is one of pure concentration and abdominal engagement.

hehe

Natalie is still a little hesitant to let her go.

But J's like...."psssshhhh....I've got this!"

See?!?

I've.got.this.
