Paxton wants to join the BlueMan Group

Serves me right! This is what happens when mom tries to take a shower. I should have known better. Normally Paxton steals the shampoo, condition, soap, facewash at some point during my shower but this time I got to take one in peace and I should have known something was up. The little man got into my stamp pads in the scrapbook room which I discovered then, that he now knows how to open doors in the house. This little man and is quick and fast!

Biggest Fan of all!

Mika and her biggest fan of all, her Daddy!

Dancing Queen

The ballerina!
Ballet is Mika's favorite dance. She was invited by her teacher to join him at another dance studio for an intensive technique course over the summer with 9-11 year old girls! We are so proud of her and I don't think I have ever seen her want something more and work harder at an activity than she does with dance!

Mika and Katy with the dancer that was in their class dance.

Best Buds

Here is Mika with her best friend Katy. Trent is already trying to stop the long phone conversations because Mika has a habit getting on the phone and ignoring the call waiting while playing Webkinz with Katy on the computer. Reminder you of anyone....
In case you are not familiar with the world of Webkinz it is myspace in training for little kids. JK

Two best friends.

Summer in Oregon

There was actually a warm day in Oregon! It was hard to believe. This was about 3 weeks ago, unfortunatly it was a high of 68 today and raining all day.
Paxton had so much fun on this thing. He is our little daredevil!

Max man couldn't get enough of the water slide he spent about 3 hours going up and down up and down. Needless to say he passed out that night!

Paxton turned my friend Jen into his personal ladder and would call her over everytime she walked away because he didn't want to climb up the ladder and I still couldn't lift the little man so Jen became his new best friend!

Mika had just as much fun but half way through decided to lay out and try to get a tan. I can't believe I am dealing with that already!

MIka and burning marshmellows

Mika was having a blast roasting or should I say burning the marshmellows. My favorite part of the night with her was when she thought her stick was was getting to hot and so she threw it at Uncle Tim marshmellow and all.

Smores

Later that night we had smores and they were yummy. Pax just kept shoving marshmellows into his mouth like a mad man. I can't believe how grown up Max is. He is such a lady killer. He has a five year old girlfriend named Isabelle and already has his eye on Mika's friends and says that when he is in high school if they go to the same one as him he will be so cool and they will want to be his girlfriends and hold his hand when they walk around the school.

Pax the puppy man

Pax could not get enough of these little ones. Their are eight there now and they are only 3 weeks old!

It's puppy time!

One of Grandma Donna's dogs had the cutest little puppies. The one the kids are holding could be ours if we play our cards right Grandpa Doman already came up with the perfect little name Sofia! Mommy really wants a night time running buddy and she would make a great one!

Granny to the rescue

Granny came out last week to help take care of all of us while I was recovering from my surgery. Pax loved being with his Granny. He would cry everytime she left the room.

Granny making my favorite Tapioca Pudding, Meatloaf and mashed potatoes. YUMMY
