What's this.....a blog entry???

I'm serious when I say it's been so long since our last blog entry that I almost forgot how to log on, how sad is that? Well as you noticed we haven't blogged in awhile in fact Easton has already gotten his second hair cut, we traveled to Minnesota and back, and we have not only gone to 1 Minnesota Twins games but 2 Minnesota Twins games. As we try to catch up here and get back into the flow of things here is a little peak on what we have been up to.

I know it might be hard to believe but during our absence we have been giving the kids a bath, I have not done any personal hygiene myself but the kids are good to go!

Easton and Owen enjoying their bath!
It's kind of funny because it wasn't that long ago when Easton and Owen would just start crying when we put them in the tub but now they love it and it's hard to get them out.
This guy is the one that Kristi and I have to watch like an eagle when it comes to bath time. He loves to stand up and walk around and I have to say when you have three kids all taking a bath together it's not easy when one wants to get up and walk around every two seconds.
Addy does get a little upset with her brothers, when she tries and practice her swimming techniques in the tub and they get in her way. I guess they just don't get it or they just have no respect!

I think Addy is now going through that stage where she wants to sleep anywhere except for her bed. On this occasion Julianne was heading up to bed and found Addy sleeping right outside her door. I also have found her behind the couch, I think we might have to seriously consider buying some restraints.
I think the kids have always been pretty close but it seems like it's a little bit more visual now. Here Addy and Easton are holding hands after church. With that said I also have to say that Easton has also used Addy as a tackling dummy when she has taken away his toy! Siblings!
Like I mentioned above Kristi and I did get a chance to go and catch a Twins game when they were in town. The good news was the Twins won the game that we went to, the bad news was the Mariners won the next two. As you could see it was a gorgeous day to take in a game at the good old Hit-It-Here Cafe.
Before the game we tried to take some pictures with our jerseys on but as you can see Easton had other ideas.

We did not bring the kids to the game, we just thought it would be to much work but it's only a matter of time before we are spend a hundred dollars on hot dogs and pops. We already made the decision to bitethe bullet and take Addy to her first movie, Toy Story 3 so ready or not here we come.
If these guys don't look like baseballs players then I don't know who does!
I'm not sure why but it seems like every year Kristi and I take the same picture with the score board in the back ground so until next year here is our annual picture!
We also celebrated our friend, Ryan's 30th birthday although he is now probably closer to 31 due to the fact that we haven't posted in awhile. Here are the girls enjoying a great night with friends.

Birthday boy with Mr. Shaw and Mr. Williams!
I do have to say it's never a party until Tim and Joe are able to make it. Matt and I were able to take in a Mariners game earlier in the day with them which was fun except that the Mariners got their butts kicked.

I hope to blog about our Minnesota trip soon so stay tuned for that!
