Morton Madness

 Chad headed back to Florida for the picking season.  He sent a gallon of blueberries back for us to try.    We, and when I say "we" I mean my mom, made muffins and they were wonderful!  SOOOOO much better than the boxed muffins. We had to pack up and stay there for the weekend because the fumes were so bad from the paint.   

The boys went to Colemans party this weekend and they played paintball.  They were so excited to play since they have never played before!  Jonah of course is obcessed with any "shoot 'em" up type of thing so he was in heaven.  Even the dads joined in.  They had a blast even though they came home with some war wounds.   Ready to shoot Had a great time Lukes war wound Jonah's one of 5 wounds Coleman the birhtday boy Daddy having fun too! Guess Jonah was shot...

To whom it may concern, It's a typical morning at The Morton house, the boys got dressed, ate breakfast and packed their bags. As I am getting dressed I look at Jonah and think to myself... his shorts look really big, almost ridiculous big. Did I buy the wrong size? I know I got a 8/10 and thats what he wears, were they marked wrong? Luke has one size smaller and I know they would not fit Jonah. I let it pass and continue what I was doing. It's now 7:00 and time to head to the bus stop. I was walking behind the boys and just could not let it go! I finally asked Jonah to stop and I said, "are your shorts pulled up"? The look on his face answered for me even before he smirked and pulled his shirt up! I was mortified, speechless and even thought about counting to 10 before speaking or yelling, but could not yell, it's 7:00 am and the entire neighborhood would hear my screeching, I did not want to scare anyone for crying out loud! I told him ABSOLUTE...

Congrats to Sam and Amy! The hospital opened today.

When the boys came home from school Friday they had a surprise waiting for them. Mimi, Papa and Winston were here to take them to San Antonio to see Uncle Tommy, Aunt Stefanie and COUSINS! They were so excited when we told them, Jonah's response, "WHAT, I can't wait six hours to play XBox!". Luke told us that he had to use a word at school and he used "ZANE" and he did not even know he was going to see him today. Sophia went down around 7:30 and Seth was just starting his day... We decided to watch a movie and call it a night. I of course fell asleep during the movie, as usual and was only expecting Seth to wake up once during the night. I was so excited to get some sleep! If you are wondering why on earth I was expecting Seth to only wake up once during the night it's because every other night it's once then the next night is twice. Not really sure why but that's how it's turned out. So off to dream land I went, soon followe...

I love how this picture turned out.  The boys had just come home from school and were giving Seth some lovin'.  Great pic for using my iPhone and them being on my unmade bed hot sweaty fresh off the school bus.  

This morning we got up and got ready for the 10:00 service and headed out to Grapevine with Dominic and Carlie. We were ready early so we decided to take some pictures outside. Justin got Seth dressed and asked if he should put a bib on him. I told him to take the picture and then we would. Well, of course as soon as he sat Seth up he barfed all over his outfit. We kept him in it for the picture and then changed him. So after he is in his new outfit Justin picks him up and he barfs all down Justin's shirt. I am not talking a little barf, Justin had to change his shirt. All of this and we are STILL ready to roll by 9:00am with FOUR kids! After a fantastic service we headed over to mom and dads for some lunch and an Easter egg hunt. Of course it was raining so the Easter Bunny left the eggs in the house. Grannie, Nina, Jason and Kelly joined us for lunch. The boys were upstairs having a dance off and I got some great shots. After all of this we celebrated Justin's bi...

We started out the day with NO SCHOOL! YIPPEE We decorated cookies for a snack and momma totally forgot to pull out the stuff to dye Easter eggs :( We all went on a walk to feed the ducks... only thing is, there were NO ducks! It was hotter than snot outside and it was only 80 degrees! When we got home we decided we better have a water balloon fight to cool off.

Luke lost his second tooth today! He was super excited.

Today was Sophia's Easter egg hunt at school. She looks terrified but she really did have fun!
