Last week in a nut shell

This was how I found Jaynee on Saturday night. We had a very busy week and I think she fell asleep the moment she stopped moving!
I was laughing so hard! She was out!
I kept telling Cam to just finally pick her up but he was laughing too! We had to get some good pics first.
Finally! She slept like a rock that night.
I love sleeping children!
We went back up to Ryan and Shelly's property and played. Here are the re-caps!
Talia enjoying her tinfoil dinner. Amy, I thought this pic was so cute of her!
West decided it was time to sleep. Thought this was so cute of you two Lezlie!
Another cute pic of Shelly! Thanks for taking us up and letting us enjoying the fall scenery!
Can you guess what is in her sippy?
Yep-Rootbeer! I am earning the mom of the year award with this pic. But all I can say is I learned it from the best-thanks Lezlie!
Cam taking rides on Ryan's new 4 wheeler. It is not really a 4 wheeler though-I would call it a couch on wheels. SO NICE!!!
Jaynee managed to stay on the 4 wheeler for every ride Cameron gave. She loved it!
Once again-Jaynee is on the front.
Emmie, Britney and Kate playing on the ranger.
A bunch of the little ones going for a ride in the ranger.
Jaynee and Talia in the ranger. Amy-once again I thought this was a cute pic of Talia. Jaynee was ready for a ride-she didn't care who was driving.
Going for a ride. This thing is amazing. Going over big rocks and divets is a dream-this thing can motor anywhere! However, I am now made fun of telling Cameron he was going to roll it! What can I say-I didn't grow up in the sticks riding on these toys-there has to be a learning curve-Be nice!!!
Another adventuresome group going for a ride.
Tuckered out! She was asleep before we even got close to getting off the mountain. So FUN!!
Ahh! I am not ready for this, however, she and Emmie think it is time to start trying. I told Jaynee I would "support" her in her decision, but I am not instigating it. So here we are, Jaynee on her potty, and Emmie and I waiting for her to do something. I finally walk away and know that this is just never going to happen, and Emmie patiently waits up there and reads books to Jaynee and feeds her snacks and turns on the water a little trickle thinking this will help. All of a sudden, Emmie comes bulting down the stairs yelling "she did pee pee's! she did pee pee's." Sure enough, I go up there, and Jaynee is in shock and surprise! She was so excited-as was I. SO, I think Emmie is going to end up potty training her. The next day, Emmie says "Jaynee lets go potty." I once again "scoff" and walk away to do laundry, and no sooner was Emmie yelling, " Mom, she did it again!". So I come upstairs, and Emmie is in the process of dumping her "pee pee's" in the potty! Seriously! What would I do without my other little mother in the house? Well, we will see how long this lasts. But until then, good luck Emmie and Jaynee!
We play on a co-ed softball team. IT IS SO FUN! All the girls switch around from center, to second, to left and sometimes catcher. Lezlie is inspector gadget and can gat any ball that comes to her (except when I try and lob it underhand and it goes over the other teams dugout!!:) SO she plays her first. This has been so fun for us. I love it and I am SLOWLY getting a bit better. Who cares though-its all for just having a good time. Although we did get a TROPHY last season-who knows where it is, but we got one-for second place! Not too bad!
After our last softball game, I had to come home and can my pasta sauce I had made that day and hadn't had time to get put in bottles! Ahh-my next picture lets you know when I finished!-LAME!
Here is my time signature. I had to take it just cause it was so dumb of me!
Emmie and Britney all ready for their game. Two little peas in a pod! I love it!
Go get 'em Emmie! I love watching how she isn't afraid to get in there with all the boys.
One of her favorite things to do at her game.
Lookin' really ready for anything. Actually this was when she had decided to stay out of the little mass that follows the ball, and wait for a good kick down to the goal line. Good thinkin' Boo.
Kaylee found some shade under my chair. It was pretty hot-and she had just finished a game.
