Family Traditions

Many of you know that the Currey's have a family tradition that involves markers. It began when Emma turned 2. She started using any marker that she could find and coloring her tummy. It was almost constant. We would go to our friends house and they just knew that if she showed her tummy it would by pretty and colorful.


The tradition continued when Kadin turned 2. He loved to mark on his face...all the time. I tried desperately to hide our markers. But it was inevitable. They would find them...anywhere! It became a running joke. The Currey's should not own markers and the Finnestad's should not own scissors.
Well

Mayla did this herself and she was about 2 feet away from me. I looked away for about 10 seconds.

(Okay PPC- You can stop laughing now!)

movin' and grovin'



















Mayla started creep crawling a few weeks ago and she goes anywhere she wants anytime. Her big sister and brothers even taught her how to climb one stair so she can get out of our living room. She learned how to pull up on furniture this week, so it's only a matter of time before I'm chasing her around the house.
She is like a little vacuum and puts every thing in her mouth and keeps me on my cleaning toes (which would make you think that my house is clean, but strangely, it's not! I must be too busy keeping her from eating everything...)

Just look at her cute little crawl....



Did you hear what Kadin is asking for in this video? I know your just shocked, right??

Camping in March

Over the last several months we have heard the question; "when do we get to go camping?" over and over and over again.


We thought that it was time for us to join the kids in their excitement and pulled our old tent out and have a good old fashioned campout together.


They were so excited and we stayed up late enjoying our time together. We told a couple of our old camping stories and they loved hearing about our life with this tent in the olden days, you know...before we had children!
