Tate's Graduation

Tate graduated from preschool on Monday. They sang all the songs they learned then had a swim party. He has an excellent teacher that is amazing with how she teaches.

I am so excited to have Tate and Tayla in preschool next year, I just gotta figure out how I am going to afford it!!

Mommy's Little Helper

It is so fun when they want to help with dishes, not. At least she is cute and draws your attention away from the fact that I put pans in the dishwasher (don't tell my mom)!

Rob and Holly

Robert and Holly had a baby girl last Thursday May 15, 2008. I believe she was 7 lbs 7 oz. Holly is supermom, she always looks great, her house is clean and she puts up with Rob!! They named her Callie, but I don't know how to spell it. When we went to see her Kenadee kept saying "Shhhhhh, she's sleeping. Don't touch her."

A Mothers Treasures

Sunday was Mothers Day and I recieved all sorts of treasures. It is awesome having kids in school because you get school made and church made gifts like crazy! Ty grew me a plant and made a nice card for me. Tate made me a book in school that is awesome. Here are a few things Tate had to say about me:
My Mom's name is Randi, she is seven years old.
Her favorite food is potatoes and gravy.
My mom thinks I am good at cleaning up.
When I am with my Mom I like to shop.
When I grow up my mom wants me to be a swimmer.
My mom makes me happy when she takes me to the movies!
Then he drew a picture of me only a mom could love!
Tayla made me a neat bag in church with a packet of "noot nacks" (fruit snacks) inside.
Jade and Tori got me a gift card to Target.
Last but not least, my Dad gave me a dozen roses! I think it is because half of the time I act like he is one of my kids too, don't eat that, don't say that, I'm calling the Doctor and don't make me call your Dad!

Ty and T-ball

Ty's first t-ball game was last Monday. His team won (they all do). Ty hits like a champ and ran after every ball! He obviously takes after my side of the family!
We had a few problems keeping his shoes on, but I think that was because he runs so fast right? Or do I not know how to tie?

This was Ty's support group. Thanks to these two I missed most of the game taking them pee three times!

A big shout out to a very pregnant Aunt Holly, she came to the game and even had a smile on her face! That is Kena on her lap, the blonde bombshell!

I also wanted to thank Ty's teacher Miss Stevenson for coming. Also a thanks to my parents, they made it in between watching grandkids, HOA meetings and their LDS Mission classes!

She's Crawling

Tori finally decided to crawl!

Fun Times

The neighbor kids hanging out. Can you believe this many children held still?Jade loves to clean the van! The children and I like to make it possible

for him to clean it out so we do our part to make sure there is a lot of

good stuff for him to suck up. Thank you honey!!

It has been outside weather at our house!

Dad's Birthday

I am not eloquent in speaking or words or actions or anything but it was my Dad's birthday on Wednesday. My Aunt Illene was in town and we always go to lunch for birthdays so we went to Pizza Factory for lunch. Thank goodness everyone was feeling better. We had a nice time.
My parents are on a mission for the Church in the Addiction Recovery Services. They have meetings twice a week in a church and on Sunday's they get to conduct a meeting at Purgatory Correctional Facility. There is a lot of great information that is taught at every meeting and I think that it is fantastic that my parents get to take some of the crappy experiences that they have had in their lives and use it for good to share with others. Word to my Mother and Father (for Ronnie). I am very proud of them!

Jazz

We are fairly large Jazz fans at our house. We let the boys stay up one night and watch the game. They didn't last long, but they thought they were cool! We hope the Jazz go far, but Jade is not optimistic.

Puke!!

Monday night Tate puked all over my table, rug and new wood floor; he missed his puke bucket. So he got to sleep on my floor. Not a big deal. At 3 a.m. as I went to quiet Tori down, I went in the girls room in time to hear Tayla puking in her bed on her bed on the wall down the wall and on everything under her bed. One boy asleep on my floor, a baby screaming and a girl puking. I called for backup and Jade was holding Tori as I moved Tate down to make room for the puking Tayla. Well I woke up Tates puke machine so now they were both puking and Tori was screaming. Four blankets and two pillows later they were all asleep. The next day Tayla missed her bucket and puked all over my new couches and carpet! Tori and Ty survived without a problem. My Mom on the other hand did not. She was throwing up Tuesday night and was sick for my Dad's birthday.
