Random Catching Up

We were pleasantly surprised to find our jasmine had gone crazy while we were in Hawaii.  It smelled so good.  Since then our gardenia's have been blooming like crazy too!  LOVE IT! 
 Two days after we got home from Hawaii, our friends Ken and Maddie had their baby boy Lincoln! We've all been looking forward to his arrival!  I went to the hospital with his real auntie Kay and became is adopted Auntie Chelle!
Kellan and Crue are still buddies! 
 Kellan is still being a big helper and even stepping it up!  He takes initiative and changes Crue's diapers at least once a day!  Well he did, now it's different because Crue is potty training and wears undies or pull ups most of the time.  Kellan still likes to help him get dressed!
I am so happy to have all three boys home!  It gets crazy but I love all the fun things we've been able to do plus Caleb has been the greatest help! And it's nice that Kellan has a bud during Crue's nap time! 
 Caleb is loving all his "relaxation".  He said school isn't hard but it makes you tired.  He gets to play Wii every day (if he does his chores) for an hour and he's thrilled! He even got a new light up nunchuck for his remote! His favorite games right now are LEGO Batman and Phineas and Ferb.
 There's a lot of wrestling going on around here since Caleb's home all day.
 Last month we got a new car!  We all love our new Ford Explorer.  We were setting things up on the computer at the dealership and they needed a nickname for the car.  The salesman suggested "Moms ride" but Caleb said, "How about Iron Man" right when Kellan said "Thor" so "Iron Thor" was born!

 Iron Thor is awesome!
 We had to take a picture of our superhero poses with Iron Thor!  Caleb's friend Brett helped us celebrate!
 Brett is one of my favorite kids!  He is so sweet to all of my boys.  Some of Caleb's other friends are not patient with the younger brothers but Brett is awesome with all of them!  He taught Caleb how to ride a bike, is always including Kellan and takes time to spend one on one with Crue!  It's adorable!


Crue thinks he needs a little more one on one with Mama though!  We've been going on dates a lot lately (thanks to Nana and the awesome youth in our area) but Crue is the jealous type! 
 His faces are so sad but so so so cute!
 It's so good to get out but I do miss my boys!
 Batman is still a regular in our household.
 He even joins us on trips to Target.
 Kellan has been taking naps again lately!  Probably a combination of swimming, the heat and the burden of being batman.
 Caleb got his ears checked last month to get cleared for swim team!  He passed the tests and just has to wear ear plugs.  Woo hoo!
 Kellan has been moving in on Crue's girl!  He monopolizes Elle's time whenever we do play dates.  Elle is starting to prefer Kellan's company!  Poor Crue!
 Elle must be attracted to Kellan's incredible fashion sense.  Lately he's been wanting to shop and accessorize!  He picked out this hat and said you have to have a serious face when you wear it.
 It is the start of the swimming season.  We have already been in the pool countless times!  My boys are hilarious and have to take several breaks to wrap up and lounge out!


 We play dress up a lot... they are always using their imaginations!
 Crue has been really good about only having his binky during nap and bed times.  But then at the library last week he found this book and wants his binky all the time... It's too ironic!
