A Super Dee Dooper Birthday.................

For Walker's 6th birthday we took him lunch at school and ate lunch with him. He was so happy to see us and have us eat in the cafeteria with him!! Kenna was just as happy.Instead of a birthday party with friends we had a family party at Chuck E. Cheese. My parents came with us and it was great fun!! Here he is with his birthday crown filled with golden tokens and his birthday cake.He had been talking for months that he wanted to go there for his birthday. I had thought it was because of the pizza and the games then the day before I found out they have a thing called The Ticket Blaster that the birthday child can get into and scoop up tickets as they blow all around them and that was the only reason he had wanted to go there......He loved the ticket blaster it lived up to everything his mind had made it up to be!!We also found out that Cooper is completely terrified of Chuck E. Cheese!! He hid under the table when he came our way. Tanner being the big brother he is later tricked him and got a picture with Chuck E. and Cooper. You can't see it in the picture but Tanner is holding on to Cooper with all his might!! Poor Cooper.....but it was pretty funny!!

Pedal Power........

Rob has taught the boys to ride their bikes with out training wheels by taking them to the park and up to the top of a grassy hill. That way they can go down the hill and worry about controlling the bike and not worry about the pedaling at first until they are more confident with the balancing part of it. It has worked with all three older boys even if they were all at a different age when taught!! Just like his brothers it only took a few times and he was a pro!! Great job Carter!

Let Sleeping Dogs Lie............

One night I came across Carter all snuggled up with Sadie sleeping on the living room couch and even though the dog is not allowed on the couch it was a cute picture so I had to snap it before putting Sadie in her kennel and waking Carter up to go upstairs to bed.

No Homework please...........

This yellow post it note is what Carter brought over to me one night just a few weeks into the school year.

He said "Mom don't read this just sign it please..."
Ummm okay like that was not a big ol red flag!!
So I read it then re-read it out loud to him and and I said "You seriously think I am going to sign this"
He said" I told you not to read it"!!hahaha

Needless to say I didn't sign it but I am sure if I did send his teacher a note it would have read something like the lil note in the corner of the post it.....yeah right!!
