more pics

Because my kids are so cute, and you can never have enough cuteness in your life, here are more pics of my sweet pieces of perfection. :)

Because I have been behind on the postings

I know I have been behind on the postings, but the babies have been sick, I have been feeling lazy, and we have been spending large amounts of time outside. So here are some pics to catch you up on what is happening here at the Peterson's.

We signed Caleb up for Young Marines. No pics on this yet because we have to buy him a uniform. As soon as we have a uniform we will post a picture. He LOVES this program. I will admit I do too. They will keep him busy enough we don't need to do sports or anything else! When he comes home from the program he is wiped out. He eats a ton then crashes into bed. What parent wouldn't love this?? They are taking him camping next weekend for "night navigation" and "live shooting" at the gun range. Don't worry it is safe. (Like I would sign Caleb up for something dangerous. ) Caleb has been doing better in school and home too! All due to the strict Young Marine rules.

Melissa keeps up the antics here at the house. She has learned to tell me what she wants --ahhhhh communication! It is wonderful! She says yes and no when she needs something. She also like to help with Ryan. She is getting really bossy. Melissa likes to yell at anything and everything! She has discovered a love for basketball. When she sees it on TV she claps her hands, jumps up and yells "go, go, go!!" We laugh so hard at this. We are trying to potty train her. But there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to when she wants to use the potty. She will go for days and keep it all in the diaper, then she will use the potty for a few days. Whatever, one less diaper to change is one less. That is all that matters.

Ryan still can not roll over, but he can sit and scoot. I am expecting some crawling any day now. He is a VERY happy boy. He can lose his temper and when he does.....watch out! But this does not happen often. He thinks the door jumper is the best thing ever! I will put him in it and he will play for an hour or more. Ahhhh a sigh of relief for me! I can use that time to actually shower or brush my teeth! Heck even go potty!

Ron and I have nothing new in our lives, since our entire being revolves around the children. Ron did decide he wanted another baby, I told him violent things would happen to certain parts of his body if that happened. So there will NEVER EVER EVER be any more kiddies for us. Did I mention NEVER EVER??? :)

14 inches later.....

I decided I have had it! Enough is enough! Ryan ALWAYS gets his little sticky hands tangled in my hair. Now I LOVE having long hair. It makes me feel pretty. I like taking care of it and styling it. I just got tired of little Ryan's fingers pulling it all out. My hair was so long that little fingers just didn't get stuck they got tangled, leaving a mass of snarls behind. So I cut it, or the local beautician did. We measured it, off went 14 inches!! Yikes! I can not remember the last time I had my hair so short. Oh yeah I am not wearing any make-up in this pic so pardon the frighting face :)
