We are doing more painting in the livingroom and hallways. One day I was working on it and Lexi wanted to help out. I put a towel down and let her express her artistic abilities on the wall. She only painted for about 5 minutes and then said, I'm all done, mommy. I go watch Barbie Punzel (Barbie Rapunzel). Here is her "art."
Tyler and I both had to work yesterday, so my mom babysat the kids. I dropped them off bright and early at 6:30am, and they WORE my kids OUT!! They went and helped at the farm, swam 2-3 times, played with cousins, went back to the farm, played with more cousins, etc. Needless to say, they were exhausted. I stopped on the way home to get all the kids slushies to try and keep them awake (we didn't leave my parents until about 5:45pm). They did pretty well, until about 1/4 mile home Lexi fell asleep. I woke her up and made her walk in the house, and by the time I cleaned out the car, this is how I found her.
5 feet from the garage door, TOTALLY asleep. I left her that way until Tyler got home at 6:45 and she still didn't wake up! He finally took her into bed and she slept all night until 7:45am this morning!! Maddie and Payton were also so tired that they fell asleep at 7:00 and slept until 8:30am this morning!! I guess we need to live on a farm!! :)
SOrry, this is a boring post, but it's all I have right now. This week will be very busy!! Maddie and Payton turn 7 on Tues, Tyler and I's 10th wedding anniversary is Wed, and Lexi turns 3 on Thurs and Father/Daughter is fri and Sat. We are also having b-day parties for the kids this year! I'm sure you will be sick of me posting! :)

Great painting Lex! It's always great to have tired kids. Mom's always get a good night sleep as well!
I can't wait to see your living room. I am sure it looks amazing. The kids definately played hard at moms. What fun. Sounds like September is such a crazy time! Good luck with Payton's party today. Thanks for the posts. Lexi is so funny.
