Welcome Baby Charley Bear Shank!!!

Our new family of five.
Here is a picture with our new baby girl, Charley Bear and her beautiful fun loving parents, Missy May and Brodie Boy.
This is sooooo funny...Charley Bear's daddy doesn't like to sleep with his head on the floor so he mounts his mouth over the chair to hold his head up while he sleeps...this dog is hilarious!!!
A sleepy ride home.
Sweeet Charley Bear loves her new cuddly soft blanket ( I think it reminds her of her mommy)
Camrin asked us to take a picture of him and his new buddy...so here it is...the best picture this boy has ever taken :)
kisses and more kisses
She is so cute...we love her
Camrin's new bedtime pal...

Papa's Jam session...

After Auntie Lanette's Birthday, we all got to watch Papa play his bass guitar with his crew. It was so fun to watch him do what he loves...play music.

Camrin almost fell asleep standing up, while this woman played her violin. It was so funny...but sweet too!

Happy Birthday Lanette!

Happy Birthday Auntie Net. I must say this cake was the best tasting cake I have ever made..MMmmmmmm

Toddler Tumbling Time!!!

We enrolled Ellie into totts tumbling, she was so excited...Apparently Camrin was too. When we got there, Camrin decided to enroll himself once he saw all the fun mats and jumping toys.
Emily had a blast...finally a place where the majority are girls :)


Sure, I'll climb these stairs that lead to nowhere and then just jump off...my kids have no fear!
The trampoline run was a lot of fun
