Parker sleeps in the "Big Bed" for the 1st Time

About a week ago, we realized that Parker's pack and play was too small for him to sleep in any longer, we attempted to put him in Brayden's bed and move Brayden to the top bunk, but he wanted to stay in his little crib. We finally packed it up so it was no longer an option and laid him in his own bed for the first time.

THe Very Hungry Catepillar

Reading "The Very Hungry Catepillar" to the kids gave me an idea for snack time...Catepillar Kabobs!!
Payton, Parker, Nicole, and Julia twisted and turned wire into the shape of a catepillar. Fruit was added with 2 raisins for eyes.
Voila...Catepillar Kabobs!

"Are you sure I can eat this, Mom?"

Roasting marshmallows in the backyard

While Brayden was off camping with Grandma and Grandpa Dilly...we roasted marshmallows in the backyard with our new firebowl. IT WAS SO FUN!!!

Tol can't keep his eyes open for the camera.

Training Parker with the roaster.

A little closer babe.
mmm, that's good!

Tol's a little excited about that marshmallow.

Don't fall in Parker!

We finished off the night looking up at the stars on the trampoline!
