Cheetos!

The girls love to play in the pantry. Usually they just move the cans around...but not this day!

They have been increasingly mischievous lately and I just can't seem to get ahead of or even keep up with them! A few weeks ago I walked into their room after their nap and they were both COMPLETELY naked! It was the only time they were able to get their shirts off too (since they were wearing tank tops), but since then they have enjoyed removing their pants and diapers a few more times. Unfortunately today there was poop in Payton's diaper. Not fun! They have also begun to write and color on the walls, turn on the water in the bathtub, open the round door knobs to the outside of the house and Ellie even climbs up to undo the dead bolt.

We have no Princesses here!

The kids love to dress up and play/fight...even the girls.  

Here is Ninja/Superman/Jedi Max 

complete with a slobber spot.

Optimus Ellie

Nacho Payton...Chancho, I need to borrow some sweats!

What do you think?  They look like fearsome fighters to me!

Utah

Here are just a few more pictures from our trip to Utah...

San Antonio

While in Utah, Neil and I left the kids with my parents and went to San Antonio ALONE. Neither of us had ever been there before and we had a great time.  It sure is nice to get away without any kids...THANKS MOM and DAD!

Lagoon!

In July we went to Utah for a Shimizu Family Reunion.  We went to Lagoon for the kids' first time and Max and Ellie really loved it...Payton not so much as you can see!
