AWANAS :)
Last Wednesday was the close of Awanas until fall- the kids really loved it... Jaxson mainly loved playing with his friends, but he did his verses and got the beloved bear he was really trying to get! They had a celebration in the gym and we ended it with a trip to Fuddie's ( so good!!) I am really proud of the kids for trying their best :) Have a great weekend everyone!!
**Last pic of Cash is when we are saying the pledge of allegiance ( I know I should have put camera away!!! ) the boys are really into the American flag right now and I just thought this was cute!!! lol

4!!!
I can't believe ( I know I say this at each of my children's days! ;) ) but really I can't believe my 3rd is 4! Jaxson is such a joy to our family- he may have killer mood swings some days, but when he laughs he has everyone around him laughing too and the things he says OMgoodness-- way funny! We are getting ready for bed so I can't type out all my words for my sweet boy, but Happy Birthday Jaxson-- me and Daddy had so much fun today with you ...... Fixing your special breakfast in bed ( thanks for waking us up to tell us what we needed to do :) lol), hanging out at your favorite place- Monkey Joe's, eating your special french fries and icecream, and of course opening your gift that you have wanted for a VERY long time....... read next post!! :)
A SKATEBOARD!!!
I know! It has been all Jaxson has talked about forever! Not a bike or a scooter.... only a skateboard:) It is a little scary ( ok to some A LOT!), but Jeremy knows how and is really good at it so I feel a little safer knowing Daddy will be with him all the way :) And from the looks of it- he's pretty good too- he did awesome on his first try!
Happy Birthday my big boy!! xxoo

Boys.....
After a long morning at the park with friends and picnic lunch ( well J brought me Subway- yummy!! thanks babe!!) after getting home while putting up the groceries ( triples still at Bi-lo!! but not a lot left!!) I saw the boys sitting watching the cement truck go to work at our neighbors....... I know this is WAY not so fun for you all but I just thought it was cute so you HAVE to enjoy it!! lol ;)
PS- No Jules has not had the baby yet tee hee!! And YES she is ready!! lol He just likes it in there:)!!
Mothers Day X's2!!
Yes I know I am way behind on Mother's Day but had to wait until we celebrated all of them lol!! On Mother's day my mom and sister came for a visit and all I had to do was.... NOTHING!! Jeremy was so great he made breakfast ( mine in bed! :) ) and went and picked up some chicken from Bo J's. My sis made some great food ( thanks !!) and I got to spend it with my mom which I haven't done in a in time ( spend Mother's Day that is). She usually heads to my grandmas and we head to the park, but this year was different and Jeremy's mom was out of town AND it rained so we gathered at our house and it was really great!! This past weekend Jeremy's mom got back from New Mexico and J and Amber redecorated her upstairs bonus for her while she was off for the week. They put so much thought into it ( my fav BTW Amber is the one of you guys when J was prob about 8- he looked sooo cute even with his coke-bottle glasses!! lol- love ya babe!) and it looked amazing-- I want the colors in my house now!! The pic of Vicky looking shocked is when she first came upstairs where we where waiting-- totally surprised:) It was another fun night!! So late Happy Mother's Day !!

Friends, Family and CASH!
Today started out to be a "normal" day perfect in every way ( lol just kidding nothing I do is "normal" and NO day is perfect!!!) so we went to meet daddy for some yummy breakfast and then we were going to out community garden weeding day ( truly the coolest thing for me at least I have learned so much about gardening - have a ways to go, but still!....) anyway so noticed on the way out Cash had a few blisters on his hand and he had gotten some mouth sores on his tongue a few days ago and was sooo grouchy and then it hit me....... I think Em had that when she was little and it was called hand, foot, and mouth!! So called dr and waited in parking lot - while waiting decided just to check out Jaxson JUST in case and Yes he had same things just not as bad looking as Cashman!!! Dr of course told us to come in and 1 hr 20 min later and needing to go to Target to mix up some mouth rinse for the boys mouth sores ( will post at bottom) YES I was right hand,foot, and mouth sooooo gross it just makes me feel dirty even if I know I can't help my kiddos getting it and the girls could have brought it home older children and adults are immune to it as said by my doc. So feeling pretty bummed, but boys are fine and just need to keep them some what caged in till Fri :)
On another note we had our friends The Hemphills join us last Fri and spend the night ( they moved a little over a year ago and I still miss her like crazy!!) but it was a fun while short visit and the boys all picked up like no time had past ( The John's came over too for a cookout) so that is one of the pics on bikes:) Cash still was awful mean to his future wife Phoebe but she wasn't backin down so they may just be perfect for each other!! lol Phebs got a towel with Dora from us and she looked so cute after her bath I had to post that pic too!! We had so much fun and excited to meet Hemphill baby #3 in November!!
Last note- The pic that looks like Cash painted all over himself is not in fact paint it is ice cream that he got to have on our walk last night--- the ice cream truck has come back into the neighborhood and how can you say no to an ice cream truck???? Next time I will know to always carry wipes with me though and NEVER again spiderman red and blue ice cream popsicle!! :) CAN YOU SAY MESSSSSYYYYYY!!!!
see ya-- have more to blog about but all my fans will have to wait duty calls about the house!! lol :) AND the fact triple coupons are at HT the next 3 days gotta get clippin!!
mouth rinse ala dr Hala::
a few drops Mylanta ( I used Target brand)
1-2 drops oragel ( I used a homeopathic brand I have a home, but any numbing agent for the mouth will do)
1/2-1 teas Benadryl liquid for children
Mix together and drop with a dropper in mouth or can be swished around ok to swallow just only do a few times a day......

Top Ten
So I was tagged by my friend Jenny way long ago and have a few minutes ( as always huh??) to sit and blog about my hubby- this should be way easy right??? lol!! just kidding J!
Rules: ( BTW I don't really follow rules great so one that is why I am so late in doing this and 2 some of the rules I am not computer literate to do!! he hee!!) Ok back to rules.... 1) Link to the person who tagged you and post rules... ok so posting rules but haven't a clue on how to link! ***** JUST found out how to do it!! YES!!!! I am soo computer smart now ( lol- the button at the top of the blog DOES say add LINK!!). 2) List top ten things you love about your husband... ok I can for SURE do this! 3) Tag 4 people and link to their blog at end of post lol- ok here's that pesky link word again! 4) Let the people know they are tagged by leaving them a comment on their blog. ok here goes..
1) I LOVE that Jeremy is kinda opposite from me because if not we would be WAY busier than we are ( AND we are WAY busy a lot--- I have a habit of volunteering, saying YES to everything, signing up for everything you get the picture right???....) and he is so laid back, likes to chill at home kinda person - which I just love to do but can't seem to pencil that in to my day!! he heeee! So I really do love that about him ( sometimes!! lol)
2) He's pretty HOT in my book!!
3) When I am mad or hurt about something he seems to have a way of telling me how it is, not mean, just he has an incredible way of finding forgiveness. Make sense? He can look at others and tell me why I may have taken something the wrong way or been a tad oversensitive ( ME sensitive naaaa!! lol!!)...... I have a hard time forgiving and letting go- Jeremy can forgive you and while you may not get a big hug he will be totally cool with you in minutes:)
4) I had a very unstable life up until I met him- I met him through an unwed teens class ( bad name I think for a church group BTW :)......) I had just started going to church and trying to get my life together for me and Kayla and still wasn't fully committed to changing 100%, not only having a painful past but a painful event that he was there for and just a huge support for me- he was my friend and still my best friend. He helped me out a very dark place ( my grandparents say he rode up on a white horse LOL-- he hates horses!!) but like I said he helped me so much and expected nothing in return- he fixed my car ( another funny story for a different day!! ) he LOVED Kayla from the start taking her places, even changing a diaper for me ( SOME!! lol). He showed me what loving a person fully was/is and how to trust again and I LOVE him deeply for that..... this # brought on the gushers ( seee sensitive me) !!!!
5) He LOVES sports as much as I do - I am super competitive and we love going to the tennis courts during the week with the kids playing on the playground and I TRY my best but usually only win 1 out of many games!!! lol!
6)I love him because he loves our kids way much!! He knows when the days that I need a breather and comes swooping in like superman and while it's not a lets go read a book at night before bed type ( wrestling, jumping off the couch, hide-in-go-seek IN THE HOUSE type) I know he is really loving it and helping me get myself back together amidst the screams ( of laughter!!)
7) He loves his family - his sister, mom, dad, stepdad, stepbro... all his fam he LOVES he would do anything for them and thinks it is really a top priority for families to be strong not just the mom and kids but the whole family which I love too!! Family dinners, gatherings, traditions are such a huge part of our lives now and I cherish every one of them!! :)
8) I love that while he is a SUPER clean freak and Mr. Organized he doesn't get on me about laundry needing to be done ( and put away - I HATE that part!) and while he has rubbed off on me about being kinda a germaphobe he will hold his tongue when things aren't done the way I know he likes!
9) I love that he is not so hard on my boys. I know they are only 2 and almost 4, but for some reason this is one of my top ten peeves with others why? I have no idea it doesn't really affect me or my fam in any way, but for some reason I always feel bad for boys that are yelled at so much for not getting a goal right away or pressured so much in sports... Yes I want my boys to be strong men and heck yeah I want them to do great in every single sport, but Jeremy is so patient and strong- he has a way of teaching that's not so harsh with the boys. Maybe this will change ( my feelings) as they get bigger, but they will always be my little boys, right?? :)..... I will prob be the mom yelling "GO GET THE BALL!!!!!!", but atleast J won't...... he'll just give me a look to say-- calm it down! lol :(!!
10) I love him because I know he loves the Lord and that he really tries to put the Lord first in our relationship, in our family as a whole and while I have many a days where my faith is weak, well I am weak, and WAY not perfect, he gives me encouragement and love and prays for me each night. I love you J and while it took me a long time to post it took me just a while to type out 10 reasons I love you!! :) Now lets hope we don't have an argument today and I erase this post huh?? LOL I am soo0000 just kidding!!!! :)
ok girls I want to tag---- Amy D., Holly J, Jules, and Jess R. I know you love me right??? lol If you don't wanna you really don't have to...... :)

I am sure all my "fans" have been wondering where us Walser's have been .... LOL!! In the past Two weeks since we have been back from our trip we have....
Celebrated our 6th Anniversary ( YES we have made another year Ha ha I can make 60+ more J, can you?? he hee!!), gone to an awesome, yet crowded art festival uptown, taken the boys back uptown ( gas is killing us right now!) to eat at the best place, PIKES, and ride the train-tram whatever it's called:), ummmm what else??? Oh yeah I had two homeschool "meeting" info meetings that truly blessed me and confirmed ( NOT that God hasn't confirmed this for our family!) that we will start homeschool come late Aug/ early Sept - ha not sure of time starting yet! :) Kayla jumped her first bigger jump at horse lessons - not way big but big to her!, Emma said ALL her books of the bible at Awanas and this has been a struggle for her so we have been busy writing, reading, talking about the books - I even know many of them by now ** wink, wink! Jaxson is in his last few weeks of homeschool preschool and will be four this month - he got to play the violin at the arts festival and I promise you I think it was the cutest thing I have ever seen - will post pic above! Cash is talking way more and well just being his crazy self! We also went to the Knights game with some friends and the kids got to run the bases at the end of game and give Homer a high five- Jaxson got all the way around then did a dead stop when he saw home plate/homer standing there and ran off field lol! Wednesday morning was the start of "our" Community Garden through a homeschool group so this was planting day and the boys helped plants so many things, but also got to play with other kiddos, dig in the dirt ( throw some on one of Mary Beth's little ones head- poor thing she took it like a champ and still hung out with Cash though---- I felt so bad:( ) so we will have fresh veggies, herbs through out the summer and fall:) I am so excited and all those gardening mommas can help me learn the process of growing and keeping things alive ---all organically which is a PLUS in my book---..... and like I have said children- good at keeping alive....... plants, veggies haven't had so much luck so far! lol :) so that will keep us busy during this spring/summer months , but we look forward to it and they have bunnies, rats ( ewwwww, but surprisingly REALLY great with kids!!) and pretty soon a momma goat with two babies! OK last but not least we went strawberry picking yesterday and the boys picked and didn't eat one till we got home and washed all the dirt and they are organically grown so pretty sure cow pooh is in the organic mix so that was a relief for me tee heee!!! Up early ( for me!) today to get ready for a friends baby shower ( ha who isn't having a baby shower now or coming up??!! lol ) sorry been so long but I can make this WAY longer and post WAY more pics, but for now this will have to do he heee!! Thinking post will have to be on a catch up basis come summer too or maybe I will learn to not schedule so much for me and the kids........ naaaaaa !!! :) lol
Rambling-Kate-Walser xxoo
**** disclaimer ( lol) I feel like this post is a look-at-all-we do/did and how great my family is........ you all should know by now I have this blog for fun and to keep others in touch not- in any way- is this a throw in any ones face how perfect my fam is ( we are right!!?? HA BIG LOL) I know all my friends know me and the way I roll ( oooo I like this word still 80's rock or this a 90's word? oh well I still like it! lol) and for any new bloggin friends that may read this....... I am just a girl ( ok woman-- I AM 27, so some day I will grow up fully *wink) who wants to have fun, serve the Lord, and bring my kids along for the ride ( oh yeah and teach them too! he heee!!) ****
