Rockstars

We headed to JJ's again for some kids karaoke. The kids sang, Baa Baa Black Sheep, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, & ABC's. However daddy was in charge of the video and some how missed Ba Ba and Kendall's ABC's but we did get Twinkle Twinkle.








We also got some footage of the kids Dancing.



Here is the video of Tyler and Kendall singing Twinkle Twinkle. The best part of this video is when our friends Aiden and Emily take the mics to do their rendition. Aiden belts it out like he's Emimen or Vanilla Ice I can't quite tell.



Kendall went up by herself to do her ABC's. We didn't get video of it but that's really OK because you couldn't hear her anyway. I know soon she'll be belting them out at JJ's though, she's getting pretty comfortable there.

Happy Mommy's Day!

First off let me thank all the mother's in my life for everything they have taught me about being a mother. All the good, the bad and the ugly help me be a better mom. I especially want to thank all my friends who are mother's because really hearing everyone else's trials and tribulations make me feel like less of a failure and I think maybe I'm not so bad after all. Only time will tell of course. Anyway I told Kevin that I wanted to sleep in and have breakfast in bed and that's exactly what I got. Of course I had to remind him of breakfast in bed at about 8 when Kendall came in to give me a kissy. Then of course when he brought me my English Muffin and Peanut Butter he opens all the shutters and the kids climb in bed with me. I never said I was getting up. I just wanted some food so I could go back to bed. These pictures would have been super cute if Kevin knew how to work my camera.
(I think I'm going to have to send him to photo class)
I wasn't going to post them because they are so blurry but thought what the heck this was what sleeping in and breakfast in bed means for my family at 8am. One of the reasons the pictures are so blurry is because the kids were going nuts jumping around and hiding under the covers. By the way I did go back to sleep and slept until 10am so that was beautiful and then we headed to the "local" Mexican restaurant for lunch. And then came back just in time for naps. All in all this was a great day. Happy Mother's Day everyone!

A Different Kind of Dress-Up

You may be looking at that little hand holding the purse thinking look Kendall even has a ring on her little fingers. But aha it's not Kendall playing dress-up this time it's Tyler! Doesn't he make a pretty princess? He asked if I would dress him up in Kendall's new princess attire this afternoon and my first reaction was (I'm not proud of this but) Oh dear God. So then I thought I either dress him up in the princess get up and take pictures of him (of course) so he can have proof when he needs therapy later in life or I could deprive him of the princess dress-up and he'll have to seek therapy later in life. I figured either way he was going to end up in therapy having me as a mother so I better get the most of it and grabbed the camera and headed to the basement for some good times. We even had the shoes and tiara.
We tried the earrings but Tyler didn't like those so much. Tyler actually liked the idea of me taking pictures of him and he thought the whole thing was quite funny. Then the phone rang and it was one of our friends and I said to them "want to come over to play for awhile" and the next thing I knew Tyler was stripped and out of the dress and waiting outside for his friends to come over. I have to say I don't think Tyler will wear the dress too much though, not because he's a boys boy or anything but because I honestly think he's just too lazy to have to dress himself.
