Livin the Dream

Over slept through my alarm at 4:30 and was supposed to get up and work. Maylee was up at 5:45 and I pulled her into bed with me. Was a bit overbearing with my husband this morning with parenting and he wholeheartedly threatened to throw his cup of water on me if I didn't stop. Managed to grab enough snack for Carter's class at school, but forgot to get juice boxes per his request. Locked Maylee in the running car in front of the house. Luckily she was only buckled in a booster so she could reach the window. After lots of hand gestures and her informing me that she could not hear me and I needed to open the door she reeeeached over and rolled the window down (luckily the windows weren't locked like I usually keep them with kids in the car). Made it to drop off snack at school. We are livin the dream over here at the Baker house....livin the dream!

Family Reunion - Day 4

After packing up Sunday morning we headed to the Newport Beach Temple. It was so nice to spend time as our little family enjoying the beauty of the temple grounds. The weather was perfect! Carter kept asking to get his picture taken and it was so cute. Maylee was right in there with him, but Drew took some coaxing.

.....in the Rain!

We get excited about the rain around here and when it comes in the summer it is so warm the kids get to run around and get soaking wet and not freeze! We love it!!!!

 

Carter-isms

I opened a box of popsiscles from Costco and let the kids pick what kind they wanted. Carter picked "white". When I handed him the popscicle and he asked me if it tastes like cheese stick. In his defense...it kind of looked like one.

School started and Carter is still learning the verbage at school. He came home and informed me he had dessert at school. I repeated what he said and he stared at me.....wheels turning....and corrected himself with "We had ART today!"

Another one......We had CT today.......you mean PE, right son!?

My teacher does this all the time at school {Carter proceeds to lick his finger and wipe it on the top of his shirt} I asked him why she did that and he replied "Because that is how Jesus made her."

Curriculum night was approaching and Carter's teacher was reminding the kids and he was pumped about it. He got off the bus and informed me that I needed to go to "crinkly night" and it was referred to that the rest of the week and I loved it every time he said it!

And finally....headstands....EVERYWHERE. 

My Little Princess in Dance

Maylee has started dance and she could not be more thrilled! She did a princess dance camp this summer with Hailee and could not wait for her official dance class to start. She is so cute and is leaning so much already. Sashay, passe, and arabesque are just a few of the words that escape her little mouth during the week.
