Carson and Brynnli's First Pets

We went to the store on Thursday in search of some new Halloween decorations at the request of Carson who informed me we needed more. Somehow we didn't end up with many decorations, but instead ended up with two new family members. Hurricane and Cinderella, our two new pet goldfish. The kids were VERY excited, especially Brynnli who couldn't figure out why she couldn't hold them. This is pretty much what we've been up to since then:) We don't get out much over here.
I am just hoping this will tide them over for awhile because I can't handle any other kind of pet.....cleaning up after my three (oops... Rick doesn't count technically) kids takes up all my time!

Miami Seaquarium

We have had a CRAZY week and Rick was barely home at all and I have been busy with all kinds of nonsense, so we decided Friday since we didn't have anything crazy the kids needed to do something fun, so we took them to the Seaquarium, which is just basically our version of a mini seaworld. The kids loved it! It was seriously so fun! We fed the sealions
The kids loved watching the shows and were dancing like crazy

These guys are at such fun ages!

Our little snowstorm

We left the kids alone for less than 30 seconds and somehow they broke into the bucket our shredder empties into (not the shredder itself...which is safely stowed away) and created a HUGE disaster.....

This is Carson making a snow angel
I gave in and we all had a snowfight, I had to keep reminding myself to be fun instead of having a nervous breakdown over the HUGE mess all over our room. The kids had a blast!

First day of school

Me and a couple moms from church are doing a home preschool for our kids from mothergoosetime.com where we alternate teaching. Today was Carson's first day and he was super excited!!
Carson's classic line from today when Brynnli and I picked him up was....
Me (in the car on the way home): Carson how was your day at school?!?
Carson: sighing "oh mommy, I'm too tired, I will tell you about it while we eat lunch."
Me: Did you have fun?
Carson: sighing again "mommy I'm tired...my legs are tired, my bottom is tired, I sat on that carpet all day!"
He had a blast and was grinning from ear to ear when I picked him up, what a big kid! Sniff........
