Jacks Singing

Jackson has discovered music and he loves one song right now. The song is "My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark." by Fall Out Boy. Anytime we get into the car the only thing he will say is "Song, song" over and over again. He has started to sing along with it and it's funny to hear him try and make the words out. It took forever to get even part of him singing on camera. After I put the camera away he wouldn't stop singing the song.

Beckham's Special Night

Friday was Beck's special night. He had been looking forward to it for a long time and was so excited it was finally time. He loves Subway and that is where he chose to go for dinner. He thought it was really tasty. 

Next he wanted Lazer Mania again. This time we did golf. He really should have just got more tokens because we did the golf in like 5 min for all 10 holes. 

 Beck did really well at the games. Well I guess it was more like he had good luck because he got a lot of tickets. There were mustaches as a prize and he got two of them. He also got Emery some sweet glasses. Beck said this was his favorite one so far. It's fun seeing the kids get so excited for these nights and how special it really makes them feel. Next is Emery's turn and her's comes on a good month. May is all 4 boys birthday's in our house and she tends to feel a little left out normally. 

Another Day Off

The boys have the next two days off of school. I was out of project ideas, but they were bored and wanted something to do, so I put them to work. They had to pick weeds for money. They got money based on what they picked. Emery's first bag was full of dirt clods. Beckham needed $3 for a toy he was saving for, so he really got into it. I told them Beck got $3.50, Cam $2.50 and Emery $2. Beckham is such a sweet kid and always watches out for Camden so he told Cam that he only needed $3 and he'd give Camden his extra $0.50 so they both had the same amount. Camden was really excited. 

 We went shopping later to look at what they wanted to get. Emery got things from the dollar section at Target and Beck got his toy he was saving for. Camden didn't have enough for his toy yet, so he is still saving. 

Kids do some weird things and thanks to the nice weather, they are able to go outside. I came outside and saw Camden like this. I am guessing he will break another bone before he is a teenager. 

The Rod

We had Camden's post op appointment and they had his rod at their office. I knew it would be small but I was surprised how small it really was. Camden was impressed with it and had to take it to school to show everyone. 

Bubbles

Who needs toys when you have a jetted tub and soap. The kids love to fill the tub up and have tons of bubbles. The only problem is to turn the jets on the water has to be pretty high, that's why Jacks is standing and I'm sure Emery is sitting on her legs. This kept them busy for about 30 to 45 min. 

Golf

Thanks to the beautiful weather Brad has had the golfing bug a lot lately  The kids want to do everything we do and so it's only natural the kids have an interest in golfing. Beck really has show a lot of drive for it and practiced outside with Brad for a little while the other day. It may be time to take him to hit a bucket of balls. He asked to have his picture taken and this was how he wanted to pose. 

Clothes

This is just a random post, but all spring break Camden wore almost the same type of outfit each day. It was shorts, shirt and long socks. I'm not sure why he started to wear long socks with shorts but he loves how it looks. I guess some point in time kids have to get their own sense of style. Beck doesn't really care what he wears. Whatever shirt is on the top in his drawer he'll wear. 

Stairs

We made another change to the playhouse, we added stairs. It's a lot easier for Jacks to get up and a little safer too. We didn't mean to make it so tall, but the height of the stairs will make the boys go a little slower as they climb up. 

 We had a run in the garage that we really weren't using that worked out perfect as a cover for the stairs. 

 Emery posing. We did this Thursday morning. By we I mean Brad, I was taking Beck and Emery to the dentist to finish up their cavity fillings. That is the reason Emery's smile is a little... well different. 

The kids project for today was staying the night at Grandma and Grandpa Arrington's house. The kids love to have sleepovers, and Brad and I love the fact that we can go out without worrying about a babysitter. Today we are going to the drive in. The kids look forward to going all year. I just hope they keep good movies showing. 

Spring Day

It finally felt like spring today. It was so nice and since Brad got off early we took advantage of the nice weather and went to the park and ate lunch. $5 pizzas are the best for things like this. The kids had a lot of fun and didn't want to leave the park when we had to go. I hope this weather keeps up for a long time. 

Maracas

Today we made maracas  I'm regretting that idea a little bit because it's all I keep hearing. The kids did have fun making them and it is keeping them busy and out of my hair, so I just have to keep telling myself that. I love that Jackson will finally pose with the other kids and look happy doing it.
