The Tent

Jay and I are cruel parents. We make our kids sleep in a closet. Once Jeff moved in the second bedroom the kids moved into our bedroom closet.
One day I decided to spice up their room and build them a tent. I gathered together some wire and a sheet and got a little creative. The end result was two happy boys.

The Creek

There is a creek that runs behind our apartment complex. The kids love to go to the creek and catch turtles and play in the water. Jay was the first to catch a turtle. Jayden caught on and has caught over 20 turtles.

Our Little Entrepreneur

Jay came up with a way for Jayden to make a little bit of money this summer. He told him he could make signs for the techs and then sell them for 10 cents. The techs loved this idea because making signs can be a hassle.
Jayden enlisted the help of his little brother. Jayden assigned Bubba to putting black tips on the poles and then Jayden would finish by screwing the sign to the pole.

Bye Bye Tooth

Colton lost his 1st tooth today. He even has another loose tooth and can't wait for it to come out also. He has heard all about the Tooth Fairy from Jayden. I think Jayden is more excited for the Tooth Fairy because he knows what is coming!





Sykes

We have made a friend here in TX. He is the cutest and most lovable black haired boy. We love to spend time with Sykes.




The turtle catching machine









Jayden is our little turtle catching machine. He has caught over 10 turtles and still counting! He can even catch them without a net. He has so much fun and is really good at it. Jay told him that we will start taking pictures of every turtle he catches so if he catches the same one again he will be able to tell by the pictures. All of them have been Red-eared Slider Turtles except for one other that we think might be a Snapping Turtle.
