In Heaven

On Wednesday April 1st my dad took Nicholas to see the Bumble Bee transformer outside the Paris hotel. They are promoting Transformer 2. Nicholas was in heaven. He loved it. He was very worried about them having a bad guy transformer there. Let's just say he was relieved when he saw it was Bumble Bee. He talked about it all day.

Nicholas and his Papa Z have a very special bond. They love to go on outings together and he loves it when he comes to his baseballs games. I love seeing them together. We are so lucky to live close to family so my kids can form great relationships with their cousins, aunts, uncles, grandma, and grandpa.

Balls

I had an interesting experience with Parker last night. We were laying on the couch and he started grabbing my chest. All of a sudden he says BALLS!!! I asked him if he thought I had a ball in my shirt. He said "Yes, Ball!" So there you have it. You all know my secret. I stuff my bra with balls.

Open Wide

On March 26, 2009 I took Nicholas and Sammy to our dentist- Uncle Jeff. Don't ask me why it has taken me this long to do it. I think I just wanted them to be a little older so they understood it and honestly I was scared that I might have to pin them down. I am proud to say that both of them joined the No Cavity Club. All those nights of trying to convince them to let Mom and Dad brush their teeth worked. I was so relieved that there would be no shots in the near future. Nicholas was very worried about it.

Nicholas did really well in the chair. I think because he is older. If you can't tell by his smile he really loved it!

Now Sammy on the other hand was a mess. Don't let this smile fool you. Sure she looks excited but the minute that chair went down and the light went on she was not having it.

The light was really bothering her so the hygienist gave her these awesome looking shades to wear. The worked for about 2 min.

See her hands trying to move the hygienists hands? She's such a stinker. I left for a couple minutes to give Nicholas a tour of the office. Supposedly she was really good until I came back into the room. Maybe I give her anxiety. Who knows. I'm just glad we don't have to go back for a while.

Princess for a day

Two weeks ago on March 16, 2009, Sammy's dance class had Princess for a day. Oh my was she in heaven. We have plenty of princess dresses to chose from. Ariel, Cindrella, Ice Princess....the list goes on. What does she decided to be? A fifties girl....whatever, when it comes to what this girl wants to wear there is no reasoning. Could she be even more a girl? Nicholas could care less what I pick for him. Anyways she absoultely LOVES her dance class. Every Monday morning she wakes up, puts her tights and leotard on and keeps it on until bedtime. Again...whatever I'm not going to fight it. Her teacher Miss Lori is great with these girls. I know I could never teach 12 3 yr. old girls. No way!! Sammy best friend Fatih is in this class with her and they have so much fun. Faith is a little firecracker and Sammy is always there to make sure she is not getting into trouble. Here are a few pictures.

It was not easy getting all 12 to look at the camera.

See Sammy putting her hand on Faith. I'm sure Faith was getting excited(like any 3 yr. old would do) and Sammy is just trying to calm her down. She is such a control freak. Geez, I wonder where she gets that from?? :)

Princesses who are best friends!!

Are you wearing green?

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!!!!

The kids in their green shirts

I told them I would make green pancakes and milk. Nicholas was so excited for it but Sammy requested yellow instead of green. Why? I don't know, but i did it for her anyways.

He loved every minute of it

Where does the time go?

I was looking at old pictures of the kids. It made me realize how fast they have grown up. I can't believe that my kids used to be this little. Look at their faces....so INNOCENT! If babies could stay this age forever I would love it. It's my favorite age so far. People say all my kids look alike but i really don't see it. They all look so different to me.

Nicholas at 5 months. Look at those big eyes.

Sammy at almost 5 months. She was such a chubster. People called her Michelin girl. Look at those arms.

Parker at 4 months. See even then he knew he had a good body.

Update

You know you need to update your blog when your husband tells you to put a new post up. So here I am. I have been a very bad blogger lately. All of sudden life is crazy pretty much 24/7. So here is an update on what's going in the Lund Family:

-

Nicholas thinks he is Wolverine. All day long he has his fingers out or "blades" and gives us this weird and freaky look.

Sammy is literally obssesed with her dance clothes. She started dance about a month ago and LOVES it! The minute she wakes up she put it's on and doesn't take it off until bedtime. I walked into the kitchen and saw her doing this. Maybe she was supposed to born in the 80's.

Then there is Parker who drives me crazy all day long with his whining, getting into anything and everything, telling me no and mine all the time. Even though he is my hardest child so far he still makes me smile. Especially when he takes pictures like this. I think he will be a ladies man....seriously this little guy will have ladies lining up for him.

As for Luke and I, well we are just trying to find time to be together. Like I said life is crazy right now. I'm not used to always being on the go. I know what all of you will tell me, it's only the beginning.
