Weekend with the Cuz.

Playing outside right before the sun went down was the most fun of the week. We love our backyard and are so thankful for Mick making it great.

Sadie Jane loved her new pool, she just didn't want to stay in it.

No day is complete these days without a few dives down the slipnslide. Hayden and Micah tore it up! They were wild and crazy and hilarious!

Love this sweet face.

Hayden and Micah also play "doctor" Yikes! This time Hayden had a hurt leg. Glad Dr. Micah could get him fixed up real nice.

And here is the dr's office. Double Yikes!! This picture is like the ISPY version for Micah and Hayden.

Nice melon.

Sadie Jane getting left by the boys...again. Poor girl.

Have you tried the new spicy sandwich yet? There is my CFA plug for the day:)

We finished each day with our best monkey friend watching some Curious George 2. Micah is obsessed with this movie and we were thankful for the few minutes before bed to wind down. (I am talking about Mick and I, not the boys.)


We kept telling Jenny and Budda that we would keep Hayden for a weekend so that they could enjoy the lake childfree. We kept him this weekend and has a lot of fun. I have heard people say once you have two it doesn't really matter but three is harder...but not by much when the third is older than your two. Hayden helps a good bit. The hard part is the competitive spirit that he and Micah have on overdrive when they get together...from cup color to pj's to getting into and out of the car first. EVERYTHING is a race and with Micah being a few years younger he inevitably loses and he is a sore loser at that. Micah also does not share toys OR his Daddy well. We decided those were the two things that we definitely need to work on. Other than that and the things that go with having three we had ton of fun as a family. Playing and playing and hanging out together. We took a trip to the mall, the pool and walks around the neighborhood and of course the precious slipnslide.

As a sidenote we have eaten at home EVERY night this week! I know for most of you you wonder where else would we have eaten, right? But those that know us well know that we utilize coupons, family and sharing food so that we can eat out as much as possible. BUT, with the new grill and a trip to Sam's we have had a great week eating at home and have really enjoyed it. Boring news, but needed to document it because I am pretty sure it wont happen again for a long, long, time. But now we'll at least eat a few meals at home.
