Girlies

Navy really is like Pippi’s mini mom.
She is spectacular with her!
Today, she played with her, blew bubbles with her, changed her diaper, and had a picnic with her.
She is almost Skylar status from when Scout was little.

Strep

Dr. Lindsey diagnosed this kid with strep.
Good thing Dr. Lindsey has two 1/4 bottles of antibiotics laying around.

Photo Shoot

I needed some pictures of Scout, so I ran him down to the harbor, and snapped a few.
I love how some of them turned out.

Look at this handsome boy!

I especially love this candid when he is checking out a boat cruise by.

This is his own personal pose.

I love this shot of him running down the rocks while the birds flew.

About 30 minutes in — he was over it, and decided that it was time to explore.
And get his clothes too dirty for pictures.
Good thing I got a few in while he was cooperating.

Car Buyers

Just two ladies in the middle of a very serious purchase — and one seller.

Transaction complete.

These two ladies are the proud owners of a brand new car.
Mama Mia…it was high time you treated yourself to something!

A New Sword Fighter

Everyone better move over…because there is a new sword fighter in town.
And he says he is a Nephite…so he is gonna win!

Four Kids Swinging

I got this picture from Micah.
I love nothing more…than to see all of my kids being best buddies.
And I especially love that Pippi was in the mix on this one.

Secret Clubhouse

Check out my kid’s secret clubhouse.
It is located two doors down, in a vacant house that is for sale.
It takes a key to get into, but it is always there and completely staged for realtors to show.

And it comes complete with an art station, a tea set up for four — and a television that “really plays”!

Crowded

My poor mom had a full bed last night.
Looks like all three made their way to hers at some point.
All I have to say is…make room for Pippi.
Oh…and another thing…better your bed than mine!

Allergy Tested

img_6501-2015-05-04-at-15-27-13.jpg
With recent flare ups, I decided it was high time to get Scout allergy tested.
And the timing of it all was perfect.
We had just been doing homework in the waiting room and he was being really defiant.
So when we headed in, I asked the nurse to scratch him really hard during the scratch test.
Scout was such a good sport, and just kept laughing as I tried to get the nurse to torture him.
The results…
this outdoor boy is only allergic to grass and trees.
So I told him, “Well, it looks like you are going to have to spend extra time outside to build up your tolerance.”
The other result….
An even more defiant homeworker because he was “too itchy”.

Navy Selfies

Just found about 60 of these Navy Selfies as I uploaded my pictures.
