Daily fav 3: routine

1). This whole back to school and work thing is going to be hard to get used too. But I do know that having my boy away for the day makes seeing him at 3:10 even a bigger joy! He gets off the bus hot, tired, and hungry! 

Breck story: as we are laying in bed I ask him how rest time went today.  

B:" we have to lay down but don't have to sleep.  I lay next to Miranda. I smiled at her.  Oh, she's got the cutest smile!"

I bust out laughing! This boy.  

2). Lundons day two w grandma daycare and oh boy is she pooped out! All the one on one attention has this girl in heaven.  Two days of three hour naps! And still in bed early! We love grandma time. 

3). Eight o' clock pm

Yup that's right.  Both kids sleeping. Maybe this new schedule is a good thing.  Only problem is I'm ready for bed as well! Here's to a happy school year for all!!

Daily fav 3: New beginnings 2015

1). Fall of 2015 brings lots of new to the Barrick household. Moms new job at Mighty Dragons Preschool as a teacher starts today! Wish me luck!

2). This babe starts his first day of kindergarten.  Please time, slow down. 

He was so excited to ride the bus that mom and dad had to meet him at school! Lots of tears on moms part today! Let's pray it gets easier! After school he rand off the bus and straight into my arms. Best.  Feeling. Ever.  His first day went Great.  When grandma Shirley asked if she could come help in his classroom he told her they already have a grandma in the class helping, but maybe if she dies! Ekk. 😁

3). Lundon started daycare with grandma Nina! She is loving the full attention she gets! She even took a three hour nap because she was so worn out!

Yeah for grandmas! Lucky us!

Daily fav 3: end of summer & baby boyhood

1). This sweet boy will be starting school tomorrow after being home with his mom for five years.  This can't be. Where does the time go. 

2). This princess will be giving up her crown of baby of the family in February! Ready or not.  This is her look after catching mom holding another baby at the park. 

3). All these sweet kids and their moms enjoyed an end of year potluck picnic at the park! Summer of no schedules, alarm clocks, and clean clothes is over! 

Cookie goodness

I post these cookies probably once a year on here. But I swear.  They rock!

You won't be disappointed. 

Bake 10-13 minutes 

Nothing like a pile of cookie goodness!

Sweet Lundon

This girl is my world. She is sweet and spunky all in one little tiny person! I love her personality and boy does she have one. A girl with few words but many many expressions. Oh sweet Lundon. 

Most days she sits in the step, stares out the window/door, or grabs a hat or her boots and insists you put them on her. She loves being outside!! And how can you say no to that face!!!

Both my babes love the outdoors. They are different kids when they are out side. Happier.  Less crabby. No fighting.  And sleep like Angels at the end of the day. 

Now we just need some spring weather so we can be outside even more with less layers on!

Easter 2015

The Easter bunny thought she was clever this year! And maybe had more fun then the kids planning the Easter basket hunt!

There was a trail of eggs that led to the baskets and started with chewed up carrots in the floor.

Then took the dyed hard boiled eggs and cracked one open and "ate" one. Breck wasn't happy about this!

The left foot prints in the window! Breck thought this was so funny! And Lundon kept pointing and giggling! Success for the Easter bunny!

Which led to their baskets full of sugar! Why do we do this to our kids (our selves)!

Breck enjoyed the hunt! Matching eggs "resurrection eggs" numbered into the egg carton!

The end was the story of Jesus' death and the day he rose again! Cute idea found in Pinterest of course! (Sorry about the scary pic of Jerod!)

Lundon didn't get the whole point of it besides the jelly beans!

Then off to the barricks for an egg hunt and lunch! Lucky kids searched for a hundred eggs full of candy and one with one dollar in it! ( Breck found it and was so excited)

We enjoyed family time and Breck was so excited to see his best buddy Jordan!

It was a great time. Wonderful time of the year!  And memories made!

Then we went home for naps!

Happy Easter.  Love the barrick bunch. 

Silly boy

This morning durning breakfast Breck was doing his show n tell project "drawing a healthy food". Nothing like waiting till the last minute mom!

Anyways. 

I said what are you going to drawn. 

And he replies without hesitation "Avacado on toast".

This makes me laugh because my sis introduced me to this a couple minths ago and I'm totally addicted.  I eat Avacado toast for lunch every single day (no lie)!

So he dug through his crayons looking for the perfect green! That's my boy. 

And this pic is a keeper.  

Here are five pieces of toast with avacados on them and in the middle "what an Avacado looks like so the kids know mom".
