End of school.

The schools in Utah county all do a dance festival. It is awesome.  There is nothing quite like seeing your kids dance their hearts out with their grade.  I love it.  (my boys not so much)

I am obsessed with Cali and I having kids at the same school.  Totally worth moving over here.  It was such a pain before going separately to everything. 

The babies weren't that good.  hahaa.  Cortney took them home to my house to put them down for naps after our kids performed. 

This picture is the story of my life.  I am constantly wrangling this boy. 

Robbie was one of the dance leaders for his grade.  He got to be in the front and then did the splits at the end.  My heart was bursting with pride.   He is on the front row the 3rd from the left.  He is wearing long black socks.  Just watch the first little bit and then skip to the end to see his splits.

It was really hard to see Oli in his video so I don't have it on here. He is the cutest though I loved watching him dance. He went full out even though he hates every second of it. 

The school tried to break a world record of biggest group of people doing a thumb war.  We were 30 THIRTY!!! people short of the world record but we did get a national record.  Boo.  It was pretty cool though and the kids thought it was pretty amazing. 

My dancer. 

After school we took the kids to the park for the start of summer celebration.  

Of course I only have pictures of the babies because the rest were gone playing. 

My boys on the last day of school. 

We went to chuck-o-rama for the last day of school.  The boys love it.  I'm not crazy about it but we had coupons for the boys...and hey it's better than cooking. :)

Henry just ate jello the whole time.  SO MUCH JELLO.  He had never had it but loved it. 

We also went and got grades doughnuts. 

And we started the summer with Rob sleeping in until 11.  Awesome.  It is going by too fast. 

Random May

Cortney has been working a lot lately and I have been putting kids to sleep by myself a lot lately.  This guy is not a good sleeper and it is a major chore getting him to sleep.  Look at that face though. 

I had the chance to watch Dexter and Dougie a couple of times in May.  Dexter is a handsome dude.  

 Cortney is starting to get ready for hunting season so he packed Henry down to Cali's house and back. It was hilarious to see such a big boy in that thing. 

Theo is OBSESSED with slushies, smoothies, soda, milkshakes...ect.  He goes crazy and makes a huge mess. 

Slushie run for FHE. 

I had a crazy day where Cali was on vacation and needed me to watch her littlest kids.  Then Angelique needed me to watch Dougie and Dexter.  My sister in law Allie was staying with me too so I  knew we could handle it.  But then...Allie got the stomach flu that we had.  She was down for the count so I tried to help with Nora too.  It was the craziest day. I had 7 kids 3 and under and 4 of them were babies.  Luckily I had a miracle happen and I never had more than 2 babies awake at a time.  It was crazy but once it was over I felt amazing....like I can handle anything.  

Willie.  Good boy.  (plus I love how there is a white baby foot in the corner of this picture...I'm not sure which baby it belonged too...maybe Nora)

 I look crazy in these but this is the reality of the situation....

 Nora and Hens.

 Theo and Dexter

Getting Nora to sleep. 

 at one point I even got a shower.  Little Nora wouldn't want me to lay her down.  

It was so fun having Mike and Allie here.  We stayed up late talking a lot of nights, and it was so fun getting to know their gorgeous baby Eleanor.  They were here 10 days and we ALL really missed them once they were gone. 

One of the nights Allie was here I heard Theo crying in the living room.  I picked him up and tried to sooth him but kept on talking to Allie.  Then she was like "oh my gosh he is totally bleeding!"  I looked down and blood was everywhere.  All over the floor and all over his foot.  I wrapped his foot in a towel and was saying to Allie "do I need to go to the instacare??"  She said yes and off I went.  I didn't even want to look at it.  It was so scary. 

We waited FOREVER at the instacare.  Theo was so good though.  I was so glad Allie was there to watch my kids.  She cleaned up all the blood too...which was really nice.


Theo had fallen on the screen door which is razor sharp at the bottom.  (I didn't know that) He basically sliced his toe in half...luckily it went right next to the bone and didn't cut into that.  

This was taken the day we took the stitches off.  I thought they looked like they did a terrible job of stitching but now that the stitches are out his foot looks good.


My brother Tyler came and cleaned my carpets for Mother's day.  It made me so happy.

Cort helping.

Theo is the bomb.

Forever ago we took these pictures of Theo.  I had found this vintage romper at saver's and couldn't resist it.  It is too small though. :(  It is made by carter's.  

I love these

He had just hurt his foot. :(

He looks crazy eyed here.  I love it. 

I can't leave out the mid barf action shot.  

Wrestler pose.
