Don't forget about me!!!

I feel like I have been neglecting my sweet little boy. I get so busy with the other kids i feel like he is just along for the ride sometimes. He is such a good baby. He is now 3 months, I can't believe how fast it has gone by. He is only waking up once a night and that is usually at 5am or so. Ella loves hlding him like he is her very own live doll, makes mommy nervous sometimes. He is such a great final addition to the Boydston clan. We love him so much and can't wait to see what is yet to come for our family.

Back to School

1st grade and pre-school

Clayton started 1st grade today. It was more difficult to get everyone out the door for early start time. 8:15am is not bad but when you have 4 kids to get ready it is a little harder. They all did a very good job and we walked to school. We found Claytons class room and he found his desk. We said bye and we were off to walk home. I can't believe he is old enough to be gone all day at school.

Then we came home and got Ella ready. She starts at 11:30. We hung out for awhile then got her dressed for school did her hair, i am trying to get better at french braiding, it is coming along. We drove her to school and I signed her in she found her square and off we went. She is really excited and looked really cute going to her class.

Wonder Valley Ranch.

FAMILY CAMP

My husband has a patient that owns Wonder Valley Ranch, which is a place were family and kids go to summer camp. He invited us up for the weekend to check it out. It was so much fun. The rooms were big, the activities were amazing and most important the kids had a ton of fun. We got there late so after a ok night sleep (kids were excited) we were up and ready for some fun. First we had breakfast with all sorts of choices from fresh fruit to cinnamon cake. Then it was off to find activities, the kids got to go on go karts including Cade he loved it. Then they got to crafts, they made a treasure box. After crafts it was time for lunch and a rest. Our kids don't really rest they like to keep going. So we went and played pool, well kids style pool roll the balls in the holes. After that we played on the trampolines. They had 6 trampolines including one that was a basketball court, it was so fun.

After jumping the kids went swimming and down the waterslides. Clayton went on them a lot, Ella was to scared and not really swimming fully yet. Cade had his life jacket on so robert took him down. He chose the fastest slide and they came out so fast I think it scared him and Cade did not want to go back down them.

After swimming we had dinner, then a talent show and finally to end the night a campfire. We ahd a lot of fun and would recommend this place to anyone.

Cade Turns 2!!!

Cade Is 2!!!

I have been really bad lately at updating my blog. (Facebook addiction) Cade had his 2nd birthday on July 19th. It was on a sunday so we had a relaxing sabbath then had family over for dinner and cupcakes. I can't believe he is 2 he is getting so big . He still not talking very much but he is very smart. He loves dancing and music. He copies everything his brother and sister do. (not always good). He has lately discovered he loves the pool. He jumps in and swims to you, makes mommy a little nervous. We love having his personality in our family.
