Baby Chicks, MeMe's Birthday, Wild Sophie

We had a great weekend :)!!  Heidi got out of school early on Friday to start Spring Break, we went to Lowe's and got the stuff to finish KMans room, Babee bought new chicks for her new chicken coupe :) (we're babysitting the chicks right now and the kids love it), we celebrated Kyle's moms birthday, enjoyed church yesterday, & ended with some friends over for Pizza last night.  I'd call that a successful weekend.  So of course I have lots of pictures to share with you.

First, had to share a video and some pics of Sophie.  She and my cousin, Drew, enjoy sending video text to one another.  She will watch his videos all day and just laugh and laugh.


 Heidi made these super cute bunnies Wednesday at church, so we examined them when we got home and made some Thursday for her to take to her class on Friday. 
 The girls wanted to stay with Babee Friday night, so Karter Man, Kyle, and I went to Lowe's and to Cheeburger Cheeburger.  It was really nice to have that one on one with Karter.  It was actually "too easy". 

 I even got to snuggle with him after we got home :) which is rare.  Usually Sophie is the "Mommy Hog".
 Saturday morning Kyle went Turkey Hunting, so I took advantage before the girls got home and played with my Silhouette :)!!  I have had it a couple months but just haven't taken the time to "get to know it".  Let me just tell you...... I absolutely LOVE it!!!  I loved my Cricut too, but once Sophie crashed the computer that had the Sure Cuts Alot on it, I didn't like it so much.
 I saw this neat painting on Pinterest that would be PERFECT for Kyle's mom.  We had been talking about what to get her for her birthday, and just couldn't really think of anything that she just really would like.  Once I saw this, I knew that she would love it.  Especially because I let the kids paint it.


 Sophie got a little carried away... hehe..... so we moved the painting before it was completely grey and let her paint the desk.
 And wah-lah...... I used my Silhouette to put the words on (used tape to do the border), and after the paint dried, I just pealed the letters up and her gift turned out just as I imagined.  Now keep in mind this saying doesn't just go for any grandmother, but for MeMe, it couldn't have been more perfect.  When her 5 grandchildren get together, it is seriously amazing to just watch and listen to their excitement.  They love going to MeMe's.
 And here are the super cute baby chicks.  I don't know if you all remember, but 2 years ago MeMe gave us 5 chickens and 3 ducks for Easter.  We really really enjoyed those pets.  BUT we had to get rid of the last chicken because Josh, our lab, had eaten the other 4 :))) & we released the ducks to save them. 

Babee is letting us keep them at the house until her chicken coupe comes in.  I love to watch the kids excitement each morning when they go check on them.



 Of course goofball Kyle had to put a chicken on my head and kept laughing and joking that it pooped on me.  No lie..... after he said that a couple times, it really did poop!! GAH-ROSS!!!!



 
 They are all females and so far their names are: Chirpy (really loud), Tiny, and Karter named his Ken LOL!!! I said... oh well..... boy named Sue.... girl named Ken :)!!!  The other 3 are nameless right now.  Kyle told them to name them..... Nugget, Finger, etc. LOL..... Heidi did NOT like that idea.
 Kman took some pics of Babee......

 This picture looks orange because of the light shining in the tote to keep them warm....
 For Kyle's moms birthday, we took her to Rancho.  She loves that place :)!! We had the best time. 


 She truly is the BEST Mother In Law ever.  I am so thankful for her.  One of a kind. 

 KyKy came over after we ate Mexican to meet the chicks :)!! 


 Heidi and KyKy will always share a special bond.  She loves him something terrible.  Definitely BFFs!!!


 We kept the 2 year olds yesterday at church.  I love to just watch them all interact.  Sophie's class was super full, so we got her and put her in our 2 year old class :).
 I did somehow manage to get a picture with each of my beautiful kids.  I cannot explain how thankful I am God blessed me with the 3 of them.  Although that youngest one tests me every day :-)!  I still love her to death.


 Jenna, Trinity, and Claire :).....
 We brought Kman in once class was almost over. 

 So last night we had The Tisdales over for Pizza after church.  We had a great time just laughing and chit chatting.  Heidi bug ended up crashing on the couch pretty early LOL.... and Brayden, Karter, and Sophie played up a storm.  Well once they left, I went to get Karter's pjs and could have SPIT FIRE at what I saw.  Sophie admitted it right away.  She had managed to destroy Karter's saying.  The thing is, I had just fixed the "r" in Hero from where she messed it up.  I WAS FURIOUS!!!
 Not only did she do that, but she also somehow pulled the boat paddle off his wall.  The blooming paddle was SCREWED in to it too!!! 
Like it was one of those moments where I'm just like..... WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO WITH HER????? And I quickly go back to what Kyle would say when I would ask him...... we'll keep her and love her forever.  She is absolutely 1 of a kind!!!
