Snoozin'

May 5th...

I almost laughed out loud when I found this pile of bodies. They were out cold!

Flowers for Mom

May 4th...

The kids were invited to Hacker's Nursery by United Prairie Bank.

They decorated the pots and planted petunias in them. They also got 

to learn a little about all of the different flowers in the green house.



After they were all done they enjoyed some yummy cupcakes!

Morgan fell asleep on the way home...

Farmin'

April 24th...

Spring planting went very well this year!
The kids loved going to wherever daddy and grandpa were to 'help'.
Lots of fun pictures from 2 of those days...

Jared didn't want to wait until Grandpa finished the round so
he ran halfway across the field (in snow boots!) to meet him...


Having fun with my new editing software. I love this picture...


Across the road Keith was digging with the girls...


Not happy... the ride wasn't long enough...

 April 30th...

Planting corn at the Helget farm.
Grandpa had lots of help moving the fertilizer wagon...


My fellas...


I have no idea why these two were squatting there but it sure was cute...


Chloe found a treat in the cooler I packed for supper...






I got everyone to stop for a few seconds and
take a group shot... and it actually turned out!


Grandpa and Chloe digging; Keith, Jared and Morgan planting corn...


I took advantage of the scenery got some nice pictures of the girls...




Can you tell it was a fun-filled day?! They were pooped out!

Saturday Morning Silliness

May 19th...

Morgan was being her silly self and had on
2 dresses, a skirt and one of my scarves...

She is really into dressing up lately...

and doing it all by herself!!! :)

Do Not Disturb

Jared actually wanted to go to bed early last night because he is going on a field trip to the the Children's Theatre today. The K-4 students are going to see Pippi Longstocking and he was very excited!

He came out to use the bathroom and said, "Did you see the sign?!" And then shut the door.

This is what I found on the door to the bedroom...

The kid constantly cracks me up!

I love the massive ammount of tape he used. ;)

Beauty Salon

April 28th...

Chloe talked Daddy into playing 'Beauty Salon' and it was absolutely hilarious!

She brushed his hair very nicely...

And then used her watering hose attachment as her hair dryer (noises and all!)...

4-Wheelin'

April 24th...

This little big boy finds every opportunity to drive the 4-wheeler.

I have been doing the evening calf chores since Keith has been busy in the field. I can't complain... there are only 3 calves to feed (usually there are 20) so it's quick and easy. I can carry the 5 gallon bucket of milk down to the huts instead of using the 4-wheeler but Jared still thinks it a necessary part of the process.

The girls also enjoy getting rides around the yard...

Can't tell these two are related  ;)

Don't worry... he is a very cautious driver and is especially careful when his sisters are riding. People think we're crazy for letting him drive it all by himself but when I was his age I was driving all sorts of motorized vehicles. My sister, Krystal, and I have lots of great memories of all of the fun we had rippin' around the neighborhood with those Reinhart boys. ;)

Moo-moos

April 24th...

Chloe loves her moo-moos...

Morgan's 2 Year Stats

May 10th...

I took both of the girls in for their annual check-ups. Morgan had fun following whatever her big sister did... step on the scale, get measured for height, getting her chest listened to by the nurse and then getting her pulse rate taken. Everytime Chloe got done getting something measured she'd exclaim, "My turn!" Too cute. :)  She only had to get one shot and took it better than any of her siblings ever did. One quick cry (more like WTH did you just do to me?!) and then she was ready for her stickers. ;)

• 27.2 pounds (57%)
• 34" tall (56%)
• 19.75" head (97.6%)

Chloe's 3 Year Stats

May 10th...

I took both of the girls in for their annual check-ups. Chloe was lucky and didn't have to get any shots. She was very concerned once her big brother put the idea in her head that doctor = shots. All she kept saying was, "I don't want to get shot!". Poor girl. ;) Her next shot will be for Kindergarten (which will probably be here before we know it).

• 28.5 pounds (22.3%)
• 36" tall (18.8%)
• I guess they stop measuring their heads after 2

Happy 2nd Birthday, Morgan!

Miss Morgan is TWO years old today!

It's amazing to me... time is just flying by so quickly.

I just love this picture of her...

She is very independant lately and has to do everything herself.

She polished off the entire pudding cup and was very proud of herself... "All done!"

She has such a happy and bubbly personality and she makes everyday an adventure.

Her nickname, Moe-Moe, fits her to a tee. :)

We just love this little girl to pieces!

I not too little...

Little miss sassy pants loves her new bike.

She can barely reach the pedals all the way around

but don't tell her she's too little... "I not too little!" 

She zips up and down the driveway with ease and she's pretty proud of herself!
