Easton Science & Art Fairs

Easton participated in both the Science and Art Fairs this year. He is obsessed with Storm Chasers so Derek helped him make a Tornado. It was really cool even though we ran out of dry ice. I am the least artsy person ever so I was not to excited about doing an art project but Easton of course wanted to draw tanks, guns, and army men. We did a mosiac flag to go with it and sponged the camo background. Easton got a first place ribbon and won a movie ticket and treats.

First Ponytail

So Peyton will not keep a headband on anymore. She pulls it off and then pulls the bow off and then pulls the bow off the clip. She is driving me nuts. Her hair is just getting so crazy so I tried to pull it into a pony. Okay so we have a little bit to go. Wishful thinking Mom!

Basketball Season

Easton finished up Campfire Basketball about a month ago and now has started Jr. Jazz. He is really starting to catch on! It is much funner to watch now. He usually scores several baskets a game and is really good at passing the ball! As for Cannon, I think he was blessed with the Basketball gene. He dribbles and shoots better than most the kids on Easton's team. He has to wear his Basketball clothes (the ones he has on in the picture) almost everyday. It is a fight to get them off of him. It is so fun to watch the grow and get better at things!

Baby Contest

Okay so I am so not one to enter my kid in a contest. First of all the cutest baby never wins, I hate popularity contest, and she will always be the CUTEST baby to us; I don't much care if others don't think so :) But, my Grandpa Bell has been calling me everyday this week asking me if I had entered her yet, so for you Grandpa Bell, Peyton is in the Pocatello Beautiful Baby Contest.

TEETH AND THE NEW DOG

Easton lost three teeth in 1 week. After the second tooth he left the tooth fairy a note that said he wanted two 50 cent pieces instead of a dollar. The tooth fairy left him a note back saying she was all out of 50 cent pieces for the night so next time. Well the next day he came home from school with another tooth. He must have really wanted those 50 cent pieces.

We also went and picked up the new dog. I am not the happiest camper out there. Especially because Derek headed back to work on Sunday and left me to take care of the puppy for the next 5 days. Did I say I hate dogs. Well anyway we named him Tyrus "Ty" and the boys are loving him expecailly the big boy (Derek)! The things I get talked into.
