Summer has been great, but HOT. We've already hit 100 and it's been consistently in the 90s. Yikes. It seems like the kids play in their baby pool everyday. They're water freaks. We've also been boating a handful of times and the kids get a kick out of that. It seems like every weekend we have something going on at least one of the days, but it's been fun. I took the kids to the Omaha Zoo with grandma a few weeks ago. It was a great trip and the kids were exhausted afterward. Literally, exhausted. They could barely walk out of there. Grandma had to carry Aubs, I carried Aidens and poor Owen trailed behind me telling me his legs hurt :( They were asleep before we got back on the interstate to come home.

I only managed to get one picture during the whole day, but hey, it's better than nothing! Aubs is a little bit of a wanderer, so I was constantly watching out to make sure she hadn't taken off and the boys were everywhere. Even at lunch Owen can only sit for about 10 minutes before he gets up and says, "I'll be right back." Uh, I don't think so buddy.
The kids have been a little crabby lately, but I think Owen is getting a few late molars. I HATE TEETHING! Did I stress that enough? He becomes a whole different kid when his teeth hurt and I have to remember that he's in pain, so I can't strangle him for being a jerk :) Aiden has another ear infection (do they ever end with this kid?) and Aubrey's ear has been draining on and off for a few months, so she's also on antibiotics for it. With sickness and teeth pain comes visitors in the night. I couldn't tell you the last time Adam and I slept the whole night without at least one child coming into bed. We sometimes wake up with two of them in bed. Thank you Jesus for a king sized bed! Stinkers.

Aubrey has gotten even more funny than ever. The stuff that comes out of her mouth is ridiculous. We also heard a "What the hell?" the other day. Humm, Adam? She's sweet and helpful and all around an easy girl. It amazes me how smart she is.
Owen is also gotten pretty funny and still doesn't stop moving, ever. The kid is crazy skinny because all he eats is goldfish and other varieties of cheese crackers. He wants to be first to do everything (oldest mentality maybe?) and likes to be the loudest. He is the one who will push bedtime rules every night (why sleep when I want to play?) and we constantly get into this convo...
Me: "owen go to bed."
Owen: "can't"
Me: "yes, you can. now get into bed and close your eyes."
Owen: "i can't mom."
(repeat 10 times)
Me: "get your booty in bed now."
Owen: "where's my sandwich?"
Me: "The one you didn't eat at dinner? It's long gone."
Owen: "But I want to eat it."
Me: "Owen, go to bed."
Owen: "Daddy lay with me?"
Me: "adam..."
He's a cute little stinker and knows how to push every button, but we still love him..most days :)
Aiden is a weirdo and I mean that with only love. He's goofy and spastic, but has perfect timing with his routines, so have a little comedian on my hands. He's still a lover, but his little temper is still crazy hot and super fast. I've never seen a kid pull out tears quicker than him. He's also so advanced it's crazy. He talks better than some 3 year olds. I know a lot of it has to do with being the youngest, but dang this kid can talk. He can count to 10 easily and sings his ABC's really well. He know many colors too. He's a pyscho in the water. We're talking underwater swimming, belly flops, spins etc. My little fish.
Ok, off to get some laundry done. Sweet, I'm so excited.
