Ok so maybe I should get my own blog since no one else is posting, but I had to show you guys this...

This morning I did my routine before I can get in the shower. Got all three kids fed breakfast (Bowdee twice the little pig) and all situated. The girls get to watch some cartoons and then I lock Bowdee in my bedroom so he doesn't get attacked when I'm not watching. Then I hurry and shower as fast as I can and hope that nothing too serious happens while I'm in there. Well I came out to this...

(like Callies bikini?)

The girls said that they are at the beach sitting on "their rock". AKA every blanket, pillow, kitchen towel (that was nicely folded and put away), Bowdee's chair, and every stuffed animal they could find. And of course they pulled out their swim suits for their little day at the beach.

Is anyone else ready for Summer?

Here are some pictures from Callie Jo's party at mom's.

DUE DATE

Bowdee Roy

Today's Bowdee's due date! It's a little crazy to think I could still be pregnant and instead he will be 8 weeks old on Wednesday! I had Tessa take these cute pictures of him 2 weeks ago. She got some really cute pictures of all my kids! Thanks Tessa! (and we will get pictures to all of you as soon as we can make up our minds on which to print)

So I took this picture of him today with the hat he wore the first couple days in the hospital. You can see how much the little bugger has grown already.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CALLIE JO!!!!!!!!!

Callie Jo turned 4 years old today!

She is so excited for her party tonight!

The Truth About Leprachauns

So after the girls finished finding all the leprechauns last night, Seth decided that he wanted to watch that freaky Leprechaun movie. I hate those movies so I took the kids in my room to watch a Disney channel St. Patrick's Day movie. Well Callie saw a little bit of Seth's show and was a little freaked out by the scary leprechaun. A little while later Seth went to take the garbage out during commercials and came back in telling the girls that there were 3 leprechauns in the truck!! Callie freaked out, started crying and jumped on my lap. I of course told her that there really is no such thing as leprechauns they are just pretend. I told her they were just made up for St. Patrick's Day. Well Brooke heard and flipped around just mad! She started yelling at me. She's like "you mean that you sat and let me and Callie look for leprechauns all night and the whole time you knew they weren't even real. You just sat there and watched us without even telling us!" You can imagine my little drama queen yelling at me. She was so mad at me she was screaming! Seth and I were a little shocked by her reaction and didn't know what to say. She went storming out of the room and we both just looked at each other and burst out laughing. So funny!

Brooke and Callie were having a hard time leaving Bowdee alone so they got sent to their beds for time out. The next thing I know they come out searching for leprechauns! Apparently the little buggers left footprints all over the girl's room.


So little Callie Jo has been on the hunt for leprechauns for the last hour and a half. She said they are really tiny circles with green hats and legs and feet. I asked her if she had found any in our house and believe it or not there are hundreds in my house. I just wish I could find the gold!

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!!

Oh So Innocent!

So this morning I told Callie that she needed to go wash her hands. She ran to the bathroom and came back and asked "Did you here the water?" Which makes me pretty sure she didn't wash them. So I say "No I didn't. You didn't wash them did you?" She said "I did I promise, if Jesus was here he would know the truth." I don't know where the heck that came from but it was so funny! Monday while Brooke was at school Callie decided that since she couldn't bug Bowdee she would just color. The next thing I know she has this little set-up for her coloring. She's like "this works great mom!"

(Notice the cups in each hand. She was totally set up)

After I took the first picture she's like mom take another one. She totally posed like she was coloring then was like are you done before she moved.

I really don't know what I would do without my little Cudda!

BIG NEWS FOR BROOKIE...

The Toothfairy came!

After I posted about Brooke's tooth she went to work on it. She wanted it out so I could update you all. The next night it was out! She was so proud that she pulled it herself. It was so loose that she turned it completely sideways and started laughing. She had to show her dad how cool it was. It was disgusting.

And finally when the girls our gone...

Our little man Bowdee is doing great. Monday night the girls slept over at mom and dad's so I could do my little surgery early Tuesday. As soon as the girls were gone our sleepy little guy who never wakes up longer than to eat was like this...
Wide awake for a good 2 to 3 hours. I told Seth he has been faking asleep all this time so we would tell the girls to "leave him alone, he's sleeping". The little bugger already has it all figured out. I guess you can't blame him tho.

It never ends at my house!

Family Update

So I'm finally going to try this blog stuff out. I'm a little slow I know. Anyways a little update on Bowdee first. He is already 5 weeks old as of yesterday. Which completely scares me! Time does fly Rachelle's post is so true. He is doing so good. He went to Dr. Oveson on Monday for a little check up and he is already 5lbs 13oz. Still tiny compared to what we were used to after Brooke and Callie but hard to believe thats a full 2lb gain from when he was born. He is so much fun tho. The girls can't stand to leave him alone. The poor little guy gets a million kisses a day and they love to have him hold their fingers. It's pretty sweet. I keep having to chase them into my room to make sure they aren't trying to pick Bowdee up out of his bed. I catch them constantly in there "checking on him". They're great big sisters! Little Brookie has fessed up to Grandma Barbara tho that the other night she snuck in our room in the middle of the night and picked Bowdee up and held him. She of course made Grandma pinkie swear not to tell but we somehow found out. She thinks she is so big! I'm still trying to figure out how to get things done and keep him safe the mauling of the big sisters. It's a challenge.

Bowdee so far has been a pretty good little guy. He mostly just eats and sleeps. We did have a rough couple nights. I had fed him and put him to bed Monday night then got everyone else tucked in. I went to get in bed myself and my little man was wide awake just looking around. It was so cute but about 3 am when he was still wide awake I started to worry that this might become a new trend. It was a long night. Tuesday night, same thing. So I decided that he had the days and nights mixed up. Hopefully thats over now tho cause last night was much better.

The other day I was nursing Bowdee and Callie came to "check on him" and she giggles and is like "Mom Bowdee's sucking on you!" It was so funny! The girls have had some pretty good lessons the last little while. I try to keep them away when I'm feeding him but they can't stand it. Also my little Cal has been wanting a sippy cup with milk and me to rock her in the rocking chair with her blankies the last few nights. I think there may be a little bit of jealousy issues going on.

Grandma Gaye and Grandpa Wally came by today to peek at Bowdee thru the window. She was so cute. She had a little gift bag for Bowdee but inside there were also little gifts wrapped up for Brooke and Callie which they were so excited about! Gotta love Grams and Gramps!

As for Brooke she is as dramatic as ever. She told me and Seth the other night that she had broke up with all her boyfriends, but today she informed me that she was teasing us she "still has Kaleb, Austin, back with him, and Payton." Just 3 she says! She also is about to lose her 2nd tooth which she is excited about. She still LOVES school because it is the best place ever. She is already sick of being home with me she just wants to go to Grandma's and play. She says it's not so fun at home. She loves her baby brother. (She is now telling me what to say about her.)

Callie is still our little wild child. She still wants to fight Seth all the time and, yes, she still "Hurts people." She is growing up and I'm not sure if I like it. Her birthday is almost here. She is so excited. I have no idea what to get her. She only wants a baby with a carseat which we already have at least 3 car seats and 45 baby dolls. Oh well, whats one more. Other than that she is just same old little stinker Callie Jo. She is too much fun!

As for me and Seth we could still use a vacation. It's been awhile but we love our little family. It feels complete now. We couldn't be happier.

That's all for now. I promise the next post will be much shorter.

(BTW I told Brookie what I said about her and now she is trying so hard to pull her tooth!)
