T-Ball begins

Jordan had her first t-ball game today. She did AWESOME! Her team played really well together. But despite their best efforts they lost 14-15. Jordan got on base every time she was up to bat and scored twice. I am so proud of her! The sweetest part of the game was when she stopped playing and asked where her dad was. He was behind her but she couldn't see him.

This was the only time everyone was actually listening to the coach.

Utah trip

This week I took the kiddos to Salt Lake. Grandma Ingeldew had never seen Lukas so we went to visit her for a while. The kids loved seeing her and the joy that our surprise visit brought her was well worth the trip.

After our trip to grandma's it was off to the zoo. What an adventure that was! Most of my family that live in the Salt Lake area went with us. We had a total of 7 adults and 9 kids. The kids had to stop and climb on all of the statues. It was a great way for them to run off their energy.

Baby Zuri (the elephant) was so cute. I love this picture of the kids looking at her.

This picture is of the three 2 year olds. Austin who was the biggest at birth is now the smallest, and Addi who was the smallest at birth is now the biggest. Funny how that worked out. Holden is holding his position right in the middle.

Austin's favorite part of the zoo was the giraffes. Before we went to the zoo, I told him he needed to take a nap. He would close his eyes and snore then open them and say "araffes?" He did this about 4 times before he actually fell asleep. It was so cute. The "araffes" were all he talked about for the rest of the day.

The baby tigers were awesome. They played in the water for about 20 minutes. We had a ton of fun just watching them and listening to the kids laugh at them.

After the zoo closed Travis kept the kids entertained by playing "Where's Addi?" We had a great trip! Thanks Heather, Craig, Peyton, Mylie, Holden, Travis, Rachel, Addi, Heath, Stefanie, and baby Clint for making our trip so much fun!!!

This was Jordan's hair today. I LOVED how it turned out. We have had so much fun trying these new do's.

Every year Jordan's school puts ON a concert. The kids practiced for about 3 months. I am so impressed by what these little kids can do.

Lukas' blessing was so much fun. 6 out of the 8 siblings from the Blackwood side were able to make it for Luke's special day. We really missed having Travis, Rachel, and Addi (they were at Disneyland celebrating Addi's birthday), and James and Stacey who live in another state. One of the highlights of the weekend was finally getting to meet "little" Clint. Clint is my brother's baby who is 2 months older than Lukas. I think that it is funny that we call him "little" because as you can see in the picture, he is not very little. Thanks everyone for coming and supporting us. Mike, Carolyn and Jay's family came from the Stubbs side. We really missed not seeing the rest of Charles' sibling but we understand that they can't come to everything living so far away. We are getting excited to see them in June!

One night while I was trying to get some laundry folded, Logan and Austin found Charles' shaving cream. I knew nobody would believe me, so I had to take a picture. I hurried and bathed the boys and got them sat down to dinner while I cleaned up the mess.

Little did I know that Austin was making another mess for me to clean up! Oh the joys of being a mom.

Jordan and I are gettint tired of the same ol' ponies everyday, so we have been trying new hair do's. This is todays experiment. I think it turned out pretty cute.
