Take me out to the ball game.....

Tanner's basketball coach asked us if we'd sign Tanner up for t-ball, with his daughter Gracie. He was going to be the coach and Tanner really likes Gracie. They play together at recess sometimes.

Well, Tanner has been really excited and enjoyed his games and practices. He's had fun and learned to run around the bases. Davis sat down and gave him an over view of the game (quite funny to watch, since Davis isn't a big baseball fan.) Well, here are a few pictures from one of the games we went to.

Running HOME!!!

I was only able to watch a part of Tanner's game. Ady was screaming "SLIDE" the whole time. Here are a few pictures of Matthew and Ady on the slide. Ady mostly wanted to go down the big slide, so I hung out with Matthew on the little one. He had a great time and learned to say "weeeeee". He's getting WAY too big.

After sliding, Matthew decided to walk around on the asphalt and there was a boy (around 10 years old) playing basketball. Matthew walked over and took his ball from him (while it was rolling away.) This sweet boy played catch with Matthew for about 30 minutes. I on the other hand was dealing with this wretched bully (no this time it wasn't Ady.) This little girl kept hitting Ady, pulling her hair and pushing her off this big play area. I told her "no-no" a bunch of times, but there was no Mother to be found. :( grrrr!!! I finally had to drag Ady and Matthew away (Ady was screaming SLIDE) I asked Davis to help me take the kids to the car, I was so frustrated. I seriously wanted to smack that little girl on her butt. (yes, I know Tanner, that's a naughty word. LOL)

OH, Tanner got his tonsils out May 8th. He's doing well, but is sad he has missed 2 games and a practice. I told him he could play this week.

Playing together!!!!

It's been a while since I took these pictures. I thought it was so cute watching Ady and Tanner play with a cheap toy.

I love how you can see Adylin's face through the holes. She kept peeking at me saying..."Peek a boo Mommy". Her new thing right now is "Knock Knock" and when you say whose there, she says "banana" and starts to laugh. I have no idea where she got it from, but she thinks it's hilarious. We have this "conversation" many times in the car. Some days I just want to turn the music up and ignore her, but the knock knocks just get louder and more frequent. Ahhhh, the joys of a two year old GIRL!!!! Tanner NEVER spoke this well. Okay maybe NOW, but he's nearly 6.

MY CAMERA

Well, I decided it was about time to take all the pictures off my camera. I figured if I did this than maybe I'd take some more. So today I uploaded my pictures and it looks as if someone got ahold of my camera. There were about 35 random pictures on my

camera. Here are a few. I'm only going to give you one guess on who might've taken them. Make your one guess count!!!!

EASTER OUTFITS

I thought I'd all ready blogged our Easter outfits. Oooops. Well, here they are. This is the last year I can get Tanner's in the little kid section. As you will see this one is pretty much too small all ready.

Tanner was the first to the bench....little cheesy buddy!!!!

I didn't get a fabulous picture of all the kids, but oh well. I'm still contemplating if I want to go get some professional ones done. Matthew is crying because Ady pushed him so she could get off the bench. My SIL thinks Matthew has the saddest face ever.

After church we went to Davis' parents house for dinner and then Grandma & Grandpa Blomquists for another egg hunt. Karly was there with her little girl Payton. She's such a doll.

Ady hunting.

Tanner hunting.

The boys playing pool.

I love this picture of Deb and Uncle Brian....they are talking to Payton....CREEPY!!!! Can you imagine being a 2 year old and seeing this. LOL

FINALLY a picture of LOLLY. I've never gotten a picture of Lauren, but she's just the cutest thing ever!!!!!

I love this one looking at Grandpa!

Sam and Marla showed up just as we were leaving. Here's baby Lydia.

This is Davis' cousin Karly. She's expecting a little girl in July. She was so sweet, when I asked her what she was naming the baby, she kindly took me into another room and asked if I would be okay with them naming her Addyson. It was so kind and thoughtful! Of-course I was thrilled to have another Addyson in the family.

Hunting at Grandma&Grandpa Strong's church

Every year Davis' parent's ward does an Easter egg hunt. AND every year we go. :) It's always a lot of fun. It's even more fun, now that there are more cousins.

Here's Will..... he's so cute and sweet. I asked him to smile and he came and gave me a hug. It was so cute!

Tanner always makes out like a bandit at these things. I swear we have candy for months.

Matthew found one candy and he was content. This was his "mmmm" face. He wanted to eat the one candy he got.

Ady at the hunt. She really enjoyed this one. I thing she got the hang of it....but tomorrow, she'll be a pro.

Cousin Lexi....she is the cutest. She had so much fun with Grandpa.

Lexi is to sweet with Ady. She's such a great cousin.

The cousins. I thought it was so cute when I saw Lexi grab Ady's hand. I just had to take a picture.

Front shot of the girls.

Sorry this one is blurry, but I thought it was soooo cute!!!!

Daddy and Matthew

Playing at Jennie's

On Friday the kids and I went to my friend Jennie's house. She has 6 kids, the oldest is 11, 10, 8, 5, 2, 10 months.

Tanner and Arabella are the same age. Adylin and Adalaide are the same age. Matthew and Jasper are the same age. By the time I got my camera out, Jasper was down for a nap.

I didn't get any pictures of the kids all together......OH WELL.

Ady was afraid of the dog AND the chickens. So she found comfort on the slide. I LOVE her face in this one.

Adalaide holding a chicken.

Arabella holding a chicken.

Tanner finally held the chicken. :) Good boy!!!

Tanner and Matthew checking out the chicken coop. Matthew was fine with the chickens, I didn't think to let him try to hold one. Hmmmm, next time.

We had a lot of fun. I've always said I wanted 6 children....it was definitely an eye opener at Jennie's house. :) LOL

PLAYING WITH THE COUSINS

Every Conference Sunday, Davis' parents have a baked potato bar between sessions. We didn't stay long because Davis had just flown back from Boston. But I was able to get a few shots of the cousins playing together before my batteries died.

Here's Lexi giving Matthew hugs. She knocked him over so he wasn't too thrilled about it.

Ady's cute hair-do as she throws rocks.

Davis was throwing Matthew in the air and I got this awesome shot.

Here's a close up of his little mohawk. Too cute, Matty-poo

Will, Tanner and Grandpa and Davis in the back.

Matthew playing by himself. I don't like him by the swings and slide because he eats the rocks.

I love this shot of Adylin. She likes to hide up here.
