Cookin' in the Kitchen

We moved Jayden's kitchen out to the living room to give the babies something new to play with. They love cooking in the kitchen and are still in the progress of learning to share it.

Tayler on the phone.

Double Trouble

Tayler would not stay sitting in his high chair so I had to start strapping him in.

This morning I check on them after breakfast and this is how he was stuck.

They can open doors now...obviously.

Bettorf Family Reunion 2011

Today we attended the Bettorf Family Reunion. It was fun to see a lot of family that we don't see very often. We also had a beautiful day for the festivities.

Hadley didn't feel very well (and isn't a big fan of large crowds) so her stay at the park was short-lived as we called on Mimi to come take her home.

Jayden and Jacob playing

Tayler and Memaw playing with a big boy toy.

Daddy was getting the kids as they went down the slide built into the side of the hill.

Jayden, Jacob and Reese had so much fun together as usual. Its a shame we don't get all three of these kids together more often.

Nice hair Tayler!

After the reunion, it was bath time for these stinky boys!

Watching some TV

Hadley opts for a shower with Daddy.

Happy 6th Birthday to Brayden!

Today Jayden went to his friend's birthday party and all of the kids had a lot of fun. Happy 6th birthday Brayden!

Bumper cars with toddlers is an interesting thing to observe.

Celebrating 4 Years

Today Jayden turned 4! It is so hard to believe that we have already been blessed to have him in our lives for four years!

We had a swim party for him at the YMCA. It was a 100 degrees the day before and windy and cold on his birthday. Fun was still had by all and he said it was his best birthday ever so that is all that matters.

Jayden and Abby got in the water despite the cold weather.

Hadley chowing down.

She hasn't had enough obviously!

After the party we opened a few more presents at home. He got his binoculars he had asked for. He was very excited!

His friend R.J. came over for the rest of the day and the boys took Jaydens boats over to the lake for awhile.

Go Gamecocks!

We are officially into College Football season and our house is dressed in all Gamecock gear on Saturdays. Its impossible to get a picture of all three kids together but here is Jayden and Hadley posing.

We Love Ms. Jane!

Ms. Jane joined our family in January as our sitter. We love her and feel so blessed to have her as part of our family. Today she surprised Jayden with his first birthday present. Can you tell that he is excited?
