Chase had a great birthday! He started his day off by spending the night with Papa Kent and then on to bowling with the cousins! Aunt Kate won 1st place in Chase's 9th Birthday Bowling Tournament and was awarded with an engraved trophy! By his request I made dirt cake for his special day. Ashtyn just had to help with the opening of the presents to Chase's dismay.

My Best Friend, Sarah's 3rd Birthday Party

Ashtyn's very best friend, Sarah had her 3rd birthday party today at 3-2-1 Bounce! Always a favorite place for birthdays for all the kids. Sarah had a "Hello Kitty" party with a gorgeous cake to match. Ashtyn just had to help whether the help was need or not. Happy Birthday Sarah!

Seattle Center

Today was the last day of our membership to the Pacific Science Center. It was fun while it lasted and we saw some great exhibits and movies over the past year. Maybe we'll get another membership in coming years. The balloon guy was quite a hit, Ashtyn and Ryder loved their heart hat and sword. Thanks Papa!

Father-Daughter Dance

Oh the funny things they say...

Ashtyn and I were out picking up a pizza for the kids and Nana, she asked me why we were just getting one pizza. I told her that mommy and daddy were not eating with everyone, we were going out for dinner and her and the boys would be staying with Nana. She says, "are you and daddy going on a date?" (I had no idea that she knew what a date was!) and then says, "do you like daddy?" I say yes I like him and I love him too! She finally says, "I love daddy too!"
That's my girl! She makes us so proud! 08/18/2012

Ashtyn says, "Mom, I'll rescue you!", wrapping her jump rope, around my legs. Where did that come from? 03/23/2011

Instead of saying, "me too", Ashtyn says, "me three", so cute!

While sitting at Starbucks enjoying a cup of coffee, Ryder sees a police car and says, "I wouldn't want to go to jubie." 11/25/2010

Last night Ashtyn's playing dress up, princess skirt and Superman cape, "flying" through the playroom yelling, "Super Ashy!" I say let's go show daddy and she says, "no Mom, Super Ashy tired!" I'm sure Superman himself would agree that being a super hero is exhausting. 10/05/2010

The M.I.T. (Mommy In Training):
Ashtyn walks into the room with her toy cell phone and I ask her who she is talking to? She puts her finger up in the air and says, "minute, talking", then back to her phone call she says, "lo?" (hello)
Age 2

We're driving in the car and Ashtyn asks me for her baby and I told her that we left her at home and she lays her head back against her car seat and looks away and says, "oh man!", with such disappointment.
Age 2

Chase told me that when he gets older, (21 to be exact), he is going to move out and take Ryder with him. They are going to live together and Chase is going to take care of Ryder. They'll come visit us, of course and we can come over to their place sometimes. And then when Ashtyn is 21, she can go live with them too! I think that he may re-think this plan one day, but very sweet that he wants to be independent, yet stay close to home with his brother and sister as roommates.
Age 8

So Brian says to Ryder, "You are so awesome!" and Ryder replies, "yeah, you should see me when I'm sleeping."
