Meanwhile...

Teagan has been practicing her bike riding skills, finishing her spring soccer season and introducing her sisters to the play house. They can't get enough of it.








































Oh and getting dressed up to go to a play with Grandma while Landon and Dad do the yard duties.













Happy to help

Landon's lawn mower is just not cutting it these days, literally. He wants to help Tyler use the real deal. He actually does pretty well considering the first time Tyler pulled it out after all of our snow, he was scared to death of it!














Mambo Italiano

Landon came to cheer her on and asked to leave after every number before hers!
Teagan came up with this pose, I did not request it.








Daddy loves his girl.




Flowers for the star of the show, even if her 15 minutes of fame lasted about 40 seconds.

Teagan had her year end dance recital on Friday night and it was so cute. She seems to be enjoying it and improving from last year. We may take a break for the year ahead and continue to focus on soccer, gymnastics and piano. Dance is an expensive hobby. Luckily after last night, Teagan now has a brand new dress up outfit that cost a pretty penny. Let's just say that we could have bought 2 official Disney princess dresses for the price of this little beauty. They say that the girls need lots of make up to not look drowned out on stage, but I just don't think it matters at this age. The black eyes and red lips kind of make me uneasy on my not yet 5 year old. She did great, make up or not, untied red ribbon laces and all!

A basket built for two

Taylor's love for climbing into buckets and baskets continues. It was bath time and Teagan and Landon were finishing up, so Taylor and Maya were getting ready for their turn. I lost Taylor and couldn't find her. Then I remembered that this basket sits beside the crib and out of sight. I went looking for Taylor and there she was! This is Taylor answering me when I asked, "Where's Taylor?"





Maya came to find Taylor too.














Hopefully they think this is fun for years to come. Teagan and Landon like this game too, so who knows?!






Apparently the fun lasted a little too long, notice the wet spot under Maya's foot. Yeah, the whole basket was wet and yellow. Luckily bath time followed!







Love me some couponing

2 packages of diapers, 2 deodorants, 2 cereals,
2 boxes of feminine products, all for about $20!

All of this was about $4.00!!!!

I have been trying to get into the swing of things with all of this coupon madness. It seems to be paying off in recent trips though. Lots of toiletries and diapers, even some cereal and snacks!
