Blessings Can Come in the Smallest Packages!

I feel very blessed every day knowing God sent me these 2 precious little boys. Call me bias but I think Peyton and Connor are the cutest and sweetest things ever. I enjoy every day I get to spend with them. They are so funny together. You can tell they love each other so much. Connor wants to do everything Peyton does. Peyton is the best big brother anyone could ask for. He is going to be the best Daddy some day. I never have to worry about Connor when Peyton is around. He doesn't take his eyes off Connor. He looks out for him and makes sure he stays safe. I can't imagine my life without either of these 2 little boys. They bring such joy and laughter to our lives.

A Happy Father's Day at the River!

We spent this Father's Day at the river. We all went to the river Friday night and visited with each other. We had a good time joking and talking till 11:00pm or later. Sunday morning started off with a 5:11am phone call from Bobby asking if Kessler wanted to go fishing - of course he would never say no to a fishing opportunity. Me and Daddy went out on the porch to enjoy the sunrise and scenery. It was such a beautiful and peaceful morning. I left for the grocery store at 6:15 am to get stuff to make homemade pizzas. I hung out with Daddy when I got back while the boys were still sleeping. They finally woke up around 7:45am. They both had a late night. Connor went to bed at 9:15pm and usually goes to bed about 7:15pm. Peyton went to bed around 12:00am and usually goes to bed around 9:00pm. Once the boys were awake, it was time for our day to really begin. Peyton and Papa went for a ride in the truck. Papa doesn't have a back seat so Peyton got to ride in the front. He thought he was so grown. Soon Mindy, Casey and their crews came over. We had a great time living it up in the sand, sun, and just visiting and enjoying each other. Landon and Peyton spent hours playing in the water and sand together. After Connor's nap, he joined them and was having a blast. He just loves the water. Daddy was taking every opportunity he had to pour water from the balcony on to someone's head below. He will always be a kid at heart. We even got a suprise visit from Aunt Kim and Uncle Worley. All the Daddies got great gifts and most of all got time to spend some time with their boys and soon to be little girl. Happy Father's Day!!!

After our day at the river, Peyton was pooped.
He wasn't too pooped though to enjoy a boys trip out to Baskin Robbins.
One of Kessler's Father's Day cards played a song when you opened it. Peyton and Connor sang and danced to that card for hours.

Brushing all 7 Teeth!

Connor has 7 teeth now. 4 on the top and 3 on the bottom. He loves to brush his teeth. He watches Peyton brush his teeth and tries to get the toothbrush out of Peyton's hand. When Peyton is finished, he usually gives him his toothbrush. How sanitary, I know. I finally went and got Connor his own toothbrush. He is using it here for the first time. He is so excited that he gets to brush his teeth just like his big brother now.

4 boys and 1 crazy mom!!!

Well, I think I have had all the experience I need to have with 4 boys all by myself. I picked up Peyton, Connor, Landon and Luke from daycare the other day. I love them all but what was I thinking. Just to give you a little taste of my experience... Peyton and Landon were arguing over nothing (just like brothers). Luke was crying unless I was holding him. Connor wanted me to hold him only because I was holding Luke. At bath time I had 3 boys in the tub. Peyton and Landon were in their on little world - not listening to anything but each other. Connor, who usually loves the bath, was continuously climbing out of the tub before I could wash his hair. After all that, I looked like I had taken a bath too. I don't think I need to explain why there is no picture to go with my story. Gotta love boys!!!

Where's Your Eyes?

Connor Thinks He's One of the Big Boys!

When Peyton and Landon get together, they are like brothers. They play together so good most of the time. However, like brothers, they know how to push each others buttons too. Connor loves when Landon comes over too play. He likes to follow Landon around just like he follows Peyton. As you can see he likes to be in the middle of the action whether it's watching TV or wrestling in the floor.

Future Hunter

Kessler gave Peyton the BB gun he had as a little boy. Peyton has been shooting that BB gun in the backyard every day. He has a pretty good aim but is still learning to hold it steady. He likes to prop the gun on his big wheel so the gun doesn't move when he shoots. One day he is going to make a good little hunting buddy.
