Wyatts Weekly Word Bank!

Yes i know. BEHIND. Here are some of my favorite ones from the last week or two. I know im missing some but i cant keep track of all of them!! Here are some of the good ones though recently!!

1. Teeth-(tee)- For about a week this kids teeth were killing him. Still dont know if it was his 2 year molars or his two bottom ones but it was a NIGHTMARE!!! He would whine and cry and point to his mouth saying "tee... tee.. oweeeee"

2. Ranch-(anch)- Defintely his mothers child. This kid loves ranch on EVERYTHING.

3. M&m's-(um-ums)- For awhile I thought he was saying yum yums (maybe he really is) but thats what hes been calling M&Ms.

4. Leave-(eee)- We were at Lukes game the other night and Wyatt was starving cuz we had come straight from the gym and they hadnt eaten dinner. Well for so long he kept saying "eee" which usually means eat. But everytime i asked him if he was saying eat he said no. Finally he picked up my keys and said it again. So i said "OHHH you want to LEAVE!" And he answered with a big "Uh huh". Like duh mom cmon lets go!! LOL

5. More-(nore)- Self explanatory. It just comes out really funny. It usually more juice or more milk or more candy.

6. Paper-(tater)- Jackson has learned how to play rock paper scissors, I dont know where or who taught it to him but he loves it. So wy will play too and do the motions and say two-two-tee- tater!!!! Too funny.

7. Hunter-(huns or Unter)- He has been calling Hunter huns lately with his cute little lisp, then when Hunter makes him say it he says it pretty good.

8. Downstairs-(ders)- You may think Im a tard but I know exactly what hes saying when he says downstairs.

9. JoJo-(do-do)- One of his new favortie shows (that he watches in my bed at 630am) is Jojo's Circus.

10. Maddie-(Naddie)- This one was so cute. He has even been seeing pictures of Maddie on the computer and points and says Naddie. He loves her already (arranged marriage maybe!)

WOW Im Behind!

Ya i know, im terrible. Im gonna do my best to get caught up right now so we will see what happens. Not a whole lot going on this last week. Its the next few weeks thats going to take its toll! Lets see.... heres a brief run down.........

Saturday Luke had to work an event in 29 Palms. The boys and I went to Jacks tball game then went home, ate lunch, took a quick nap then we were off to Kylees softball game. Marc and Brandi were going out for the night so I had taken on the duty to get them to their games and have them spend the night. After Kylees second game of the day I took her and the boys to dinner before heading to Hunters 6pm game. The boys went crazy there and played with all the big kids. Around 830 when the game was finally over, I ran through and got Chinese food for Hunter and ice cream for the other kids and we finally went home. Luke had just gotten home too. We through all the kids in the shower, and then ourselves and put everyone to bed! LONGGGG day!

Sunday we got up and Luke went to get us all bagels. Then we packed up our bags and the car and took the four kids down to the beach to meet marc and Brandi. Holy cow was it hot all weekend. Luke got the funniest sunburn of all time. Like he held one of the kids who had 50 spf all over them so it was a hilarious color scheme he had going. He was dying come night time. However after rubbing him down in Aloe we were off to Lucilles (YUMMMM) to meet lari and Ethan for dinner. Always good to see them. They are always so busy, as are we, so its rare for us to get to dinner. Lari and I had been trying to get together for WEEKS if not months.

Monday Luke and I decided to try this detox diet everyone keeps doing. So Monday night we had our last great meal for a few weeks. We packed our bodies full of thai food. Then dreaded the next day where we had to smell the leftovers everytime we opened the fridge. It was not fun. So far so good though. We will let ya know how it goes. Luke had already lost 3 lbs as of this morning (after just 24 hours of this). I need to go buy a scale now. I keep forgetting to weigh myself at the gym (or I just in denial, whatever!)

I have become an ebay aholic. Seriously, its bad. Mostly boardshorts and shorts for my little guys who are HURTING for summer clothes right now. Poor Jack has NOTHING that fits him anymore. And for some odd reason Wyatt doesnt really have any shorts that fit him either. I must have put a bucket of 2T clothes in storage or something. Anyways, i have found some KILLEr deals on ebay. Everything is brand new with tags, just coming from people who get this stuff from retailers or manufacturers and start the bidding at 99 cents. Its awesome. I have bought them 2 pairs of boardshorts both for 10 bukcs, quiksilver, really cute boardshorts. I bought Jackson a pair of Hurley cargo shorts for $7. I love it. However my best buy so far has been the new TVS for the car. When we got our new car the one thing I said I wanted was a TV. Of course the one car we ended up getting didnt have one. Well we are leaving for the river in two weeks and had to buy portable ones ASAP. So i found one on ebay.... dual screen, with the head rest attachments, all the plug ins, headphones, and best of all 30 built in video games and a controller. One kid can play video games and the other can watch a movie. Its pretty sweet. We just got it yesterday and the boys already love it. Last night they sat in the same room, watching the same movie but each one had their own screen. it was hilarious!!! Love my new buy! LOVE LOVE LOVE ebay. Last night I didnt go to my turbo kick boxing class because I had an auction ending at 732pm, well TBK didnt get over til 730. LOL I am so pathetic. ADDICTED. And I just listed 35 items of my own to sell and they are diong INCREDIBLE. Wow I sound so lame right now. HAHA!

Another find on ebay was Wyatts bedding. I found his pottery barn kids quilt on there. Got it for half the retail price in stores (not to mention its on back order til August). It was a catalog return so it was a seller selling it for dirt cheap. Then I found him a brown crib sheet on there, brown crib sheets are near impossible to find by the way!! Now I am on the hunt for brown pillowcases lol. His bed look so cute though. So far. Im excited to get the rest of his room stuff going (ps Wyatt wants babies r us certificates for his bday lol).

Luke and I have a playoff game tonight for softball... wish us luck. This weekend should be pretty relaxing. jack has his last game on saturday, then his pizza party. And we are celebrating my moms bday on sunday!! Yes my mom is another year older as of Monday! Since I was so behind I hadnt posted her bday shout out... but jack made a cute phone call, as did Wyatt! So she knew she was still special on her bday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!!!

Well like I said, nothing to interesting. I promise I wont get so behind again. Its ebay i tell ya.... Im addicted!!!

The Stork Returned!!!

I know Im behind.... Ill explain that later. First I had to announce the arrival of yet another wee one to add to the group! Our friends Mike and Hillary Chavis welcomed their little man, Miles Alexander Chavis, on April 23rd at 305am. he weighed in at 7lbs 11oz and 21 inches. Hes a Chavis thats for sure. Looks so much like daddy its ridiculous!!! He is too cute. Cant wait for him to get big enough to join the boys and all their crazy friends in their wild antics!! Congrats Mike and Hillary!!!

Angel Game/Ca Adventure!

Saturday was a fun day......... for all of us. I put together a big group Angels game with 30 of us, adults only. We got there about 3pm and tailgated, drank, ate, I mastered the game of flip cup lol I love doing big games like that. They are so fun. Im doing another one the end of May for Lukes bday but this one is like 100 ppl (or at least thats what were predicitng so we will see what happens, last year it was 75). As stressful as it can be to organize those things, after its all said and done its definetely worth it. We had a good time.... My sister and her boyfriend Eric picked the boys up that morning and took them to California Adventure for the day. They had ALOT of fun. And Wyatt had never been but unfortuantely for him he wasnt feeling so hot. I think he has his two year molars coming in or something cuz he has been a cranky mess since saturday and wont eat anything. When he does he whines, points to his mouth and says "teeth". Poor guy. But he stil had a good time. We bought the 2fer passes so Luke and I are gonna take the kids to Disneyland in a few weeks. Im excited. We havent been since before Wyatt was born. Anyways, heres a buncha pics... Enjoy! And thank you Ash and Eric!!

You know its a good day when........

Scarface

On wednesday Wyatt fell through the bleachers at our softball game and landed in the gravel underneath. The umpire was nice enough to stop the game so I could go comfort him. It loooked like he was ok so I left him in Kylees lap, still crying but I had seen no blood or gashes. Well then I realize Lindsay and Ky tending to him as Im playing second base. He had cut his chin open and was bleeding everywhere. They stopped the bleeding and it looked more like a big scrape then a big open gash so that was good. His sweatshirt was covered in blood. No bueno, I liked that sweatshirt! Hes been pretty good about it til yesterday when he picked it and he fell asleep on my arm and I finally felt wet on my arm like he was drooling, no it was blood, all over his chin, my arm his clothes and his hand. Ughhhh. Poor guy... the kids a walking accident!

Even Cuter Than Yesterday!

Just got back from the hospital and I dont have the patience to wait to post these pics. Maddie is even cuter than yesterday. Of course yesterday she was so new she was still squishy and smashed lol however, none the less, ADORABLE! Today was even cuter. O I just love her. She is so cute. And the boys were loving it too. Jack has been super concerned when I said Maddie and Linny (as Jack has always called Lindsay) were in the hospital. He kept saying in a highly concerned voice, "Are they hurting Maddie and Linny? Is there blood?" Dunno where he got that idea but it was cute to see him so worried. This morning he even called Maddie his sister. LOL As soon as we got there he kept saying he wanted to hold her. When he finally got his chance he was good, then after a minute he says "Ok i dont want to hold her anymore" lol. Wyatt said her name last night but I have yet to have him repeat him... "Naddie" is what he called her. He was interested but not too too interested. He kept walking up and getting real close and just rubbing her hair gently than do some kinda goofball thing. Like he was just looking for the attention. When I was holding her he climbed up next to me and kept putting his face next to hers (getting pretty intimate if you asked me Uh oh hahaha) like he just wanted to feel her fuzzy hair brush up against his face. He was so cute with her. I got some maddie time in but the boys were a little chaotic so I decided to take them home so they didnt drive them all nuts. Ill get plenty of baby Maddison time in the future anyways. Ill have to go through withdrawls til I can see her again on Sunday! Soooo cute!

Maddison is Here!!!

I just spent allllllllllllll day at the hospital but I am happy to announce the arrival of little Maddison June Vallez!!! Lindsay was set to be induced on Monday so I had my sitter all worked out for the day! Well last night she had warned me saying her back was totally cramping! 630am i got a text from Jeff saying they had just been admitted. However I didnt get this text til 8am when I walked downstairs to feed the boys breakfast before leaving to take Jackson to school. I scrambled to get their stuff ready and to find a sitter. Lucky for me Kelly was AMAZING and watched the boys all day so I could go to the hospital. Jeff and I sat there all morning staring at each other, played some cribbage (he kicked my ass) and paced across the room. Then their families joined us so we all sat there some more. Luke got there right before Lindsay got to 10cm. Finally around 5pm she was ready to go! Luke and I and their families watched To Catch a Thief in the waiting room lol And by 530pm little Maddie was welcomed to the world. 7lbs and 19inches of pure cuteness!! I got all her brand new pictures when they were still cleaning her up... and her little feet were still all wrinkily and blue! Ahhh she was sooo cute! Lindsay did great and Jeff was one proud daddy!! And i was soooo happy to finally get to see that little girl! I feel like its been forever since the night they invited us over for dinner and they told Luke and I they were expecting! FOREVER!!!! I havent gotten to hold her yet :( cuz after they were done cleaning her up I rushed out to get the new mommy and daddy some In n Out (we had all been craving it since 11am) then I had to get back to MY kids. So first thing tomorrow the boys and I are heading over so they can meet their new friend! And i can FINALLY hog her! Soo cute... love her!

Ok i was seriously peeing my pants laughing at this thing on the wall... read closely it says, ''Mission hospital would like to remind you that check out time is 11am. Thanks." LOL Really??? as if they have a choice!

I didnt get any good ones of the three of them yet, but you can almost see Lins in this one! LOLStill got the squishy face!!!! Love it!

WELCOME TO THE WORLD MADDIE!!!!!

Amys Day Care Services

Thats what my house was today!! Yes a day care center... I had the boys here and Mr Brandon AND Bailey!! It was such a piece of cake though. The babies were soooooo good!!! Neither of them were any trouble at all and my kids were actually very cooperative surpringly, however it was interesting to watch me carry both these 9 month old babies up to the third story and back down again lol. i dunno how people with twins or more do it... honestly, I do not envy them!!! (Kristyn you have your hands full lady! ) Wyatt was great with them as opposed to last time we watched Brandon where i thought Wy was gonna have a nervous breakdown because another baby was taking up all mommys time! They all just played and laughed and tore apart the playroom all day! I took a few pics of the fiersome foursome so here they are!! They are all too cute!

Chuck E Cheese

Monday night we went to Chuck e Cheese. My friend Pam has a new boyfriend (who I love) and he has a little boy thats Jacksons age. His name is Cameron and Jack adores him! They met on Saturday night at Angela and Alisons bday party and played all night. When it was time to go we promised the boys we would go to Chuck e cheese on monday night we did just that. From saturday til monday night jackson talked about it, and about his new friend Cameron. They get along really well and have a really good time. So needless to say they had a great time at Chuck e cheese.

Flying Solo!

I survived my weekend flying solo! Mind u, I have been left to fly solo plenty of times for the weekend, no problem. Dont think Im not capable of taking care of my own kids by myself ( I do it every day). However, this wekend was a bit different. We had a bizillion things to do. Tball, baby showers, birthday parties. Not to mention a very swollen kid AKA Quasimoto. So it was a bit of a challenge for me. Saturday morning before we even left for Tball I was ready to pull my hair out. Of course the one day Im going crazy trying to get outta the house with a list a mile long my kids were NOT cooperating at all. Fits were being thrown, temper tantrums in full swing, stripping off uniforms after i dressed them twice before that! Just not my day. On top of it, I still had gifts to get to go to all these parties! By the time tball was done and I dropped the boys with my mom in the 100 degree heat (no joke by the way) I thought I was going to have a nervous break down. I wished my mom luck, she needed it. Anyways, my day proceeded to go that way (IM sure you dont wanna hear all the details!). After the last party in Irvine, for my friends Ang and Al, the boys and drove home and what do you know, they were both passed out in the car before I even hit the freeway. It was 1030pm. I so wish I could have been sleeping at that point. I was BEAT!
Sunday was MUCHHHHHHH better. After a morning of doing nothing, I packed some lunches and met Brandi and the kids at the beach. I did nothing, but relax in the sun. It was GREAT! We left the beach around four and by that time daddy was home so we rushed home to see him. By the time we got there the kids were passed out so they had to wait to see daddy.....

Wyatts Weekly Word Bank!

Few new ones for the week... there is probably more, but these are the one that I actually can remember or understand !

1. Ice- (ice with a lisp)- We were at Ang and Als bday party saturday night and the kid was eating the ice out of the tub holding the keg of beer in the garage! But he learned how to say it, and say it well too!

2. Bob- (bob)- Jack and Wyat played ping pong with my friend Bobby all night on saturday and Wyatt was calling him Bob! So cute.

3. Nana's House -(nana's ows with a lisp)- He now knows everytime we drive into my parents gate that we are going to Nana's. So we drive through and he says Nana's house.

4. Choo Choo- (choo-choo)- We brought out their Thomas tent the other day and now he has been obssessed with the "choo choo"!

This is all I remember right now but Im sure ill think of more later!

Beach Pics

Luke left to go outta town on friday so I was flying solo with the boys for the weekend. We started at the beach on friday which was B-E-A-Utiful! We went to my parents beach and after awhile my dad met us down there... the boys were ecstatic cuz they knew Papa was going to jump waves with them. Thank god for my new sunscreen too.... it actually worked this time! NOBODY was sunburnt! After a few hours at the beach we headed to the car and went to Kylees game where it was still 80 degrees at her 5pm game. Got a glimpse into the weekend forecast! The kids talked us into going to Marc and Brandis after the game for dinner and the Angel game so we did. These kids act like they never get to see each other... they spend like 3 days a week together, you would think they would hate each other!!! Wyatt is still dealing with a case of swollen eyes, due to allergies, poor kid. Went to bed swollen on thursday, woke up friday still swollen, was ok during the day and kicked back up about 7pm or so. Its a mystery to me... guess i really should go see the allergist now. Grrrrr... I basically get to pay someone a ridiculous amount of money for him to poke at my son then tell me "Hes allergic to nuts and everything that floats around in the air during springtime. Have a nice day!" Really not looking forward to it. Anyways, after drugging him about 8pm he was passing out on the floor at Marc's so by that time the Angels had some ridiculous call against them and I was so mad I didnt wanna watch anymore anyways so I packed the kids in the car and took off, and what do ya know, both kids were passed out within a minute of getting in the car. I went home and crashed myself, in a huge bed all to myself :)
Jack found probably five lady bugs that day.... he was so proud of himself!
PLaying in the sandSo everytime I put water in the buckets Wyatt would stick his face in it just like that and drink the water... so shocked he didnt have raging diahrrea on saturday! Gross...

Shes NOT My Girlfriend!

So on wednesday when we were leaving the gym, I went into Kids Klub to get the boys and after a minute of fighting with them to get outta there (they love that place) Jack had come to the swinging door and this little asian girl walks up to him, hands him a page out of the coloring book she was working on and says "Here, have a good day!" It was so cute. Jack looked at the picture and says "Thank you!" So he follows me out of there still looking at the paper and says to me "Mom why did the girl give me this?" and i tell him "Because she thought you were a nice boy!" He then after no hesitation at all says "But she is NOT my girlfriend!" LOL Priceless!

Weekend Recap!!

I know I know I lag! We have been busy!! Weird huh?? So lets see.... Saturday was a very busy day to say the least. I felt like i was running around like a chicken with my head cut off most the day. Welcome to my life! I took a few pictures at tball saturday morning, which is where our saturday began. We got to jacks game and as we were walking to the field (late might i add) Luke says to me while holding Wyatt in one arm, "Why is he wet?" Ummmmm..... come again?!?! I had changed him an hour earlier! NOWAY did he soak through a diaper. Is this really how my day is going to start? Sure enough he had soaked through his diaper. How is totally beyond me and being in the major rush we were in that morning I didnt have time to stop and get diapers like I planned on doing so that diaper was supposed to last another hour til we got to Target. HA! Lucky for me jen was walking up and she ran to the car to get me a diaper. Grrrr! So when I got up to the field, the sports director told me he had the team pictures in already from the week before. SOOO FAST! So he gave me them and I handed them out then I finally got to see Jacksons. LOL they were so cute. (As I am writing this Im trying to scan them so cross your fingers!) And I just about wet my pants laughing when I saw Luke in the team picture. HAHA I dunno why but the way he is standing or something made me laugh hysterically. He looks like he has cankels lol (dont tell him i said that!) Game was good... still some chaos but getting better. Jack hit one time and ran to second, I mean ran to second and COMPLETELY skipping first base. Haha. Funny kid. Wyatt played with Boston which is hilarious to watch because they are both so damn bossy and headstrong. Everytime Boston would pick something up Wyatt would go "N-n-n-n-n-n-n-no!" Funny cuz thats what Jackson says to him ALL the time. So this is now Wyatts new favorite word.
Jack and Radyn talking about the game HA!
Jack and Radyn!Dodgers (Jack is bottom row, far right) Anyways, after the game we were off to our next stop... AYSO sign ups. Yes, Jack will be starting soccer in the fall. Crazy huh! Since Luke coached Tball and Radyns dad, our friend Robert, is helping out with that, they will be switching roles for soccer. Robert is head coach and Luke will be assistant. Luke, who HATES soccer, decided to coach. Keep in mind on our way to tball that morning he swore he wouldnt coach anymore of Jacks teams til he was at least 8 and the kids had some idea as to what they were doing and he didnt feel bad yelling at them to pay attention or listen! lol We have some REALLY obnoxious kids on our team, who need a good discipline thats for sure. So annoying. I dont get parents, is it really that hard to tell your kid no or tell them when they are doing something wrong. Its funny to now get to this age with Jackson where I know all my discipline has paid off. As much as I think Jack can be so awful at time (which he can, dont get me wrong, he aint no angel!), I now look at this team of ten other kids and thank god that he is mine!!! I mean really... its bad. I now know there is a reason for all my madness. So my kid doesnt turn out like theirs! Anyways, AYSO is a bit more strict when it comes to coaching, Luke actually has to take classes LOL.... you can bet he didnt know that before he signed up!

After AYSO sign ups we ran to Target, not only to get Wyatt diapers but to get Boston diapers lol. Yes, Boston. We were on our way to his bday party and i asked Jen what he needed that morning and she said diapers. So i said fine, thats easy. She kept telling me she was serious, well so was I! I ran into Target, got a big box of Pampers and slapped a big blue bow on the top and called it a day! Easiest birthday shopping Ive done in a long time. i actually might consider doing it for every birthday we go to, as long as they are still in diapers. I hopped back in the car, drove to Dove Canyon to drop Luke off at the golf course. Lucky SOB got to go play golf with Gary while I went to a 2 year olds bday with the kids. After bounce houses, pizza and cakes (our usual weekend meal) we said our goodbyes, got in the car and went home to take short naps, Im talking maybe an hour. In the meantime Brandi and Hunter came over and popped open a beer (Brandi not hunter) while we waited to go to Kylees game (by this time its 5pm). We got BACK in the car, headed across the street for her softball game and afterwards went to Lampost with her team. Luke met up with us about the last ten minutes of the game. She never plays here in Ladera so it was a nice change. After many quarters worth of video games, a few beers/ alot of pitchers we finally headed home. I was BEAT! And i guess the kids were too.

Sunday Sunday Sunday.... We got ready and headed out the door about 930am. Picked Bmoe up, dropped the kids at Marc and Brandis, picked up Kelly and headed to the angel game! Yayyyyyyyyy! Angel season is back! It was so nice to be there again! Ahhhhhh... I love baseball season. We tailgated for awhile before going in. Unfortunately they got their asses handed to them but we had fun none the less! We picked up the kids and I dropped Jack and Luke off at Bmoes to go swimming. I figured I could take Wyatt to the grocery store with me. BAD IDEA. I had went to Kohls first and he was a butt, so i decided to let him go swimming too and go to the store when the kids were asleep.

The kids swam like fish. Wyatts such a dare devil it scares the living day lights outta me. he was climbing up the rocks to jump off the very top. Luke says "Amy come see this!" I go over there and Wyatt, bare butt and all, is climbing up these rocks to the very top and with no fear at all jumping into Lukes arms in to the water. Made my hands sweat. Luke would put him in the raft and within seconds he would be diving off head first on purpose. he is crazy. When we go to the river Im not gonna be able to take his lifejacket off him the entire trip. Jen and I joked the other day about how him and Boston are both going to have lifejacket tans from the weekend cuz they wont be let out of them the whole time. Jack swam back and forth from Jason to Bmoe over and over. After fighting them to get outta the spa we went home and put them to bed and I went on a major grocery shopping trip, only to come home and pass out immediately. Talk about a long weekend!
Dad and Wy (Wy with his swollen eyes, you should have seen them before that, no idea why but his eyes were so swollen he looked like Quasimoto from Hunchback of Notre Dame) lol
High Fivin BmoeJust relaxinHairs still dry, must have been when they first got in!Attempting to swim back and forth from Bmoe to JasonDareveil Wy jumping off the highest rock! He climbed up there by himself!
