Our Kids Consignment Sale

We had another pretty successful consignment sale. We sold lots of clothes, toys and gear but we had alot left over too!






Jackson and Addy sold cookies, brownies and drinks. They had fun and each made $12! It pays to be cute I guess!














I think we had 6 or 7 large tables FULL of stuff.











Look at all of these clothes.





We have 5 racks like this full of clothes. Way too many!

Jump Zone

We are to the point where I can take them to Jump Zone and they will play without me carrying them everywhere. Cooper got to where he would climb up the inflatable steps and go down the slide with me behind him, which was great. However I was packing Ainsleigh! I was so tired by the time we left!

She ran around this circle a million times!




Cooper was always right on her tail!





















Sweet Cooper!












Sweet Ainsleigh!












Oh, the joys of jumping!!














Cooper loved crawling on the animals in the "kiddie" inflatable.

A big milestone...

I know, I am crazy, but my little boy was just too small to ride the school bus at the beginning of the year. But, after many persuasive conversations with a 6 and half year old, he is now riding the bus home in the afternoons. Ainsleigh and Cooper love to walk down and meet him. Our stop is literally the third stop once they leave school so he is only on the bus for probably 10 minutes, but he loves it!


Here is bus #118. It only goes around Wisteria Drive which is in our section. There are probably 8 buses that serve our entire neighborhood.









Waiting on our neighbor Nate to get off the bus.





Here comes the big boys...Jackson and Nate. He just looks way to big!







His first "big" school project. He had to build a Leprechaun Trap. He and daddy had fun building it! No one in his class caught a Leprechaun, but one did come into his classroom and left footprints and chocolate!

Winter fun at home

We will be so glad for the weather to warm up so we can go outside! We are all getting a little stir crazy as you can tell from the pics below.





Cooper hanging out after pushing his chair from the table to the middle of the living room floor. The new hardwood floors make it much easier to move stuff!














Captain Jackson






They all had to have hats on. Too bad the outfits that went with the hats were too big for the babes or they would have been dressed the part too!








I am not sure what he is doing...probably picking up a microscopic crumb from the floor.











Ainsleigh dancing and half naked of course. She gets out of her pants way too easily.







She decided it was much more fun to eat her snack ON TOP of the table instead of in the chair!



Three cuddlebugs under a blanket.




Isn't this sweet????












We know it won't last forever, but we at least have evidence that they loved each other at one time!




Ainsleigh decided that she needed to wear her summer pj's on a cold night and stuff herself into her suitcase. Don't ask...she is ALWAYS doing something like this.

Valentine's Day

We had a fun Valentine's Day weekend. The kids had parties at school which were lots of fun and yielded lots of candy! We made heart shaped cakes for each of us this year. Everyone had fun decorating them and even more fun eating them.


Can you believe this is my baby??











Oh Ainsleigh!


















Jackson loves breaking the eggs and the babes love to watch him do just about anything.








Cooper decorating his cake.







Look how proud they are of their cakes!!














Mimi and Popsy got the kids cards that play music. Cooper thought that was hilarious. He opened and closed his a million times!
















Another singing card...








Ainsleigh and Cooper got an Elmo DVD.
