Pretty much every day, Noah finds the time to scale the chairs and RUN on the counter in the kitchen. At first it was semi-cute, but has since become a nuisance. As you can tell from the photos, he loves to play in ANYTHING and stops at NOTHING!! Not even the kitchen sink with pan soaking, this becomes the swimming pool for toddlers. The usual track for the countertop is...up the chair, sit on the breakfast bar, then jump up and down and scream. Then off to the coffee pot where he checks the grounds and comments, Whhh (blowing at the pot noting that it is HOT). Then he stops to check the flour and sugar and mix them together for a nice blend of baking ingredients. Next is the sink, he pulls out he faucet and runs in place in the sink. He definitely takes time to look out the window and see what jewelry he might find on the window sill to try on or rearrange...Then he is off to the cookie cabinet above the appliance garage to have a snack of coffee cookies that he leaves half eaten and smeared everywhere. Now he notices that he is close to the really fun cupboard...THE SPICES!!! Yippee, Noah must try to open each bottle regardless of size and the ground cloves steal the cake because he opens it and pours it EVERYWHERE!! Then across the stove to the cupboard with PAM, baking chocolate and seasoning packets. By this time, he is busted by his older sisters and I have run from one end of the house to the other to discover the messes he has created. That is why I have named Noah, the Monkey. He will climb anything and finds mischief wherever his is. And of course it is all innocent the first time or two, but not the 9th or 10th. I will say that my vacuum smells very clovey now. Thanks Noah, you rock my world and never ever cease to amaze any of US!!

A New Niece & Cousin
We are so happy to welcome Baby Kamri Sno Neal to the family!! Derek and I happened to be in Kearney the day she was born and stopped in the next day to see the family!! As you can tell is doing well and growing. She has a few proud cousins too. I guess I helped name this child four years ago at the baby shower for Miss Addison (before she was born). That was too many years ago for me to remember. So I'll be happy to claim the fame for this one, but I barely remember the name game that day. She loves to cuddle and snuggle. And she is sooo tiny!!
Fun @ the Fair
We had a great time at the Chase County Fair. The girls got their faces painted each of them choose the butterfly design. And they enjoyed the flying boats with Kendra too! We couldn't wash our faces that night either.
Haylee's 1st Day of School
I can't believe that my baby is old enough to start school! I was a bit sad, but she was and still is so excited to go everyday!! Here she is with all of her stuff. Have a great day!
Tami's Wedding
These are just a few of the photos I snapped before the wedding. We hosted the groomsmen at our home and had a full day of hair before the wedding began at our house. It was a gorgeous day for a gorgeous couple! We are truly blessed to have a wonderful family.
Someone Cut My HAIR!!
On Memorial Day 2007, we enjoyed lunch at Grammie and Grandpa's house. Suddenly we realized that the girls were very quiet and we didn't know where they were. Soon, Grammie said it was time for ice cream so out come the girls and we asked, "what are you doing?" "Oh, nothing", they said. So as we are scooping ice cream I looked at Alexa and said, "YOU CUT YOUR HAIR!!! It wont' be long for Aunt Tami's wedding!" She was suddenly sad. I went on to ask, "how did this happen?" "I don't know", Alexa said. "Haylee?", I said. "I don't know", Haylee said. I think I was more disappointed then Alexa. So an hour goes by and we go home and we are discussing what happened and that it was okay to tell Mom and Dad what happened. It is always important to tell the truth. So Haylee pipes up," I know how the story goes". "Really?", I said. "Yes, Alexa held it while I cut it", Haylee said. I said, "the only person who should ever cut your hair is Mandi (hair lady), please don't ever cut her hair again because we can't fix this." Alexa said, "I don't like it sissy!" And there you have it, a self-cut mullet for everyone to enjoy. It wouldn't have been so hard to fix if it would have been only one cut, but it was four different ones. You be the judge!!
Summer Fun
As many of you know, I have seriously fallen behind on updating my blog. So I hope that I can get a few posts done for you to see the changes in the kids from summer to fall. These photos were taken on a hot day and Alexa even made a sand angel. She is so funny and creative. Noah likes to be in it all whether it's water, sand or MUD! On several occasions, he has had at least 3 baths a day!!
