Our Day at the Pool

We had such an exciting day at the pool today. Here is Malyki playing a game with Cy. At one time all the little kids were chasing him around the kiddie pool trying to catch the big fish.

Here is Malyki going across the Lilly Pads. That's quite a leap. Not only is he part Monkey, but part Frog too.

Here is Izaic, someone turned the wheel and showered him with water. I think he was a little suprised, but kept on playing.

Felicitee is going down the big slide. Here the lifeguard catches her because she isn't a strong swimmer yet.

Malyki is all about the fun. I can't wait to take him somewhere he can go on some real thilling rides.

Izaic is playing in the tube at the kiddie pool.

I have no idea what this look was all about. He probably saw a cute girl.

Cyrus just having fun.

Here's Felicitee being a little mommy again. Playing with Kenzee, one of her favorite things to do.

And after all this fun and three applications of sunblock, they still got burnt. Except Malyki, his skin isn't as fair.

The best Big Brother

Malyki is quite the helper when it

comes to helping his brothers and
sister. He does really well to get them breakfast on Saterday Morn. (My morning to sleep in) And put on a movie. At least if Cy doesn't want mom to do it. He is also really good about taking Cyrus potty when I'm busy and he needs to go. He can put a diaper on Cy at bedtime, and takes him for rides on his bike. He also takes Izaic, and lets Felis go for rides on it too. He also helps make lunch and snacks. He does really good with PB&J sandwiches, popcorn, chocolate milk, and much more. He is almost ready to cook an egg on his own, we're still working on it.

The little MoMMy

Cy-Cy got a break from Felicitee on
our camping trip where cousin Trinity was
the highlight for Felicitee. She had to
make sure she was always taken care of. She loves to take care of littler kids. She likes to give her cousins William and McKenzee lots of attention too. She feeds Willy his bottle and dress Kenzee up and make sure she has babies to play with. She is very responsible and takes care of her older brother too. She remembers Malyki's things for him when he forgets them, and will jump up and do his chores if it doesn't phase him when he's asked.

Bully of the House

Izaic has become quite the bully lately. Here he is trying to wash Cy-Cy's face by dunking it in the puddle. It only needed washed because he thought Cy's face would make a nice canvas for his muddy finger painting. I don't go far in the car with him unless I know he's tired. Since all the kids are right next to each other, he has to pick on whoever he can. But if I find a movie he likes, he zones and I can have a small break from it for a while.

Let you ImaGination Soar

Cyrus has become less testy as his imagination developes more. Here he is being "Rella" as in Cinderella. He is the only brother Felicitee has that will play dress up with her. It probably won't last long though. He talks on his phone quite regularlly too. It doesn't matter if its a tv remote or a stick he is always having a conversation with somebody. "I talking to my Dad" or "I talking Gramma." And my favorite. "There's a bug on you." Smack. (There's really not a bug). While driving one day he kept claiming, "A spider on me," and I would ask where, "Right there," pointing to his knee. Not really he just wanted to see if I would let him out of his carseat. And all it takes for the best fishing pole ever is a play necklace and stick.
