Phone Pics

I got a new phone at the beginning of the year, and I've actually gotten better pics on it than my camera!! So here are a few pics from my phone...
 Brek waiting to go in for the ultrasound with me where she found out she'd be having ANOTHER brother! She was very disappointed and put her head down on the table and pouted for a while. She really wanted a sister! Later she told me that it would be okay that it was a boy as long as he was as cute as her brothers were when they were babies. :)

This is Brek with her kindergarten teacher Miss Juettner (I'm pretty sure it was some kind of a dress up day in case you were wondering...). We love her!

She adores him! This was spring break in Lubbock.

May

Brock turned 30 May 4th!  Here he is with his birthday ice cream.

Lots of help blowing out the candles!

Brock and I were talking one night and the kids hopped in the tub.  We were really into our conversation so we just let them play.  I knew it was going to be bad, but boy was it bad!!!  This is what happens when you let 3 kids play in the tub for 15 minutes unsupervised!  Every single bottle of shampoo was empty!

Brek had field day the end of May.  Here are the boys cheering for Brek in the stands.

Here is Brek waiting for her turn for the frisbee throw.

Brek got 2nd in the sack race

1st in the 25 yard dash

1st in the 40 (?) yard dash

Here's my beautiful girl posing with her 3 medals

Tyce wanted a picture with Brek's medal

Can't forget Luke!

Brek posing again

Here is Luke playing so nicely in the sprinkler.

And here are Brek and Tyce playing in the mud!  Every time they go outside they have to make a mud puddle and play in it.  Brek is the instigator.  You would think it would be the boys, but no, it is Brek!

I had to wash Brek's hair about 3 times to get all of that mud out!
She now has one swimsuit dedicated to the mud.  

Clean Luke
He really doesn't care about playing in the mud.

April

The kids love playing outside!  One of their favorite things to do in April was to find as many snails as they could and "race" them.  Here they are gathering snails.  I was stalking them from the kitchen window.  And wow.  The boys really need haircuts!

Here is Luke "racing" one of his snails.  Can you see it on the slide between his legs?

One Sunday afternoon I sent the boys outside because they were going crazy inside.  I told them to stay out of the pool.  So what do they do?

Shoes and all!!!  My kids have been really scared of the rooster (Boastus) because he will chase them and try to get them.  Today they were brave and chased the chickens around throwing water at them.  This I believe was the beginning of their terrorizing the chickens.  Now I feel sorry for the chickens.

Here is Brek Easter egg hunting at her class party in the park.

And here is Tyce showing me that he has no eggs.  Poor boy.  He was so excited to hunt eggs, but I kept trying to tell him that it was just for Brek's class.

Here is Brek's class.  Brek was upset that she didn't get very many eggs so she was not being very cooperative for the picture.

One Saturday I got a phone call from my friend Charmayne inviting us to an Easter party.  I told her I wasn't feeling well but that we would love to go if I got to feeling better.  Maybe Brock and the kids could go.  Later Brock kept bugging me saying we needed to go and that I probably just needed to get up and I would feel better.  So I got ready and we went in for the party.  It was a surprise baby shower for me!  So sweet!  So Brock took the kids back to Sabinal to go to an Easter egg hunt in the park.  Here they are with their friend Trey.

The hunt was sponsored by a local church so here are the kids listening to the sermon before the hunt.
