Ayden's semi truck made of legos

Ayden was so proud that he made this semi out of legos. If anyone knows him very well he has a love for semi trucks and so when he was done with this he could not wait to show me! He wanted me to take a picture of it and send it to his dad right away! I thought it was sweet.....he is going to be just like his dad!

Biggie the hampster

Gavin had a hampster named Hammy and well after much saddness trying to save him from dying he died and the whole family was sad. Gavin trained him to sit on his shoulder and he would walk around with him and he would never fall off or move he was the cutest thing and the cat and he had an amazing relationship. Our cat slick and hammy loved each other. normally a cat would try to eat a hampster but slick was deathly scared of him and after getting used to him they played and the few times hammy got out slick never ate him they just played like friends. Today we decided to get another hampster and so we went to the pet store. It is really funny how animals just love Gavin and all of the ones he has had they all have picked him out. We pulled our the hampsters that were short haired ones and he played with them for a minute and none of them really stood out. We then looked at the german and black bear hampsters and the only one that was left of the german hampsters crawled right into Gavin's hands. It was like that one was saying please take me home and he imediatly liked that one. It was the sweetest one and so he picked him. I don't know much about german hampsters but when we got it home I held it and oh my gosh! I'm not sure if its his balls or what it would be but they are huge. Me and the kids laughed about it for a while and Gavin said "I need to research that" I think he was a little disterbed. lol! Gavin decided to name him biggie. No, not because of his big balls or what ever it is but it is a little ironic. I now chuckle everytime I call him that name. So now we have a hampster again and I hope our luck is better with this one. For now everyone in the Bingham household is very happy campers.

Swimming

We went swimming and here are some of the fun pictures that I took. The one of kadie wearing my sunglasses is very sweet on my heart.

What to do when someone forgets to put on panties!

Well this evening I needed to go to Bashas and usually I only take Kadie because the boys HATE to go shopping (I think this is something boys are born with). Today though Gavin and Ayden decided they wanted to go with me. We all piled in the car and off to Bashas we go. As I pulled out Kadie when we got there I notice she has a little bare bottom, she has no panties on underneeth her skirt! I somehow missed this as I put her in the car. Quickly thought to myself, do I want to go home and get some and I think no way. I also don't want to have her stay in the cart with me because as any mom knows it is awsome when they are old enough to go into the play center and shopping in peace is AMAZING! Then I think I will just make one of the boys give her theirs. So I tell tell Gavin to quickly take off his underware and give them to me. After a quick "mom what will I wear" I say you have pants so you will be fine just give them to me. If anyone knows Gavin very well he has been my most modest son since he was very young. This is huge for him to give me his underware. I put his long underware on Kadie and off we go inside. As I am signing the kids in I think I should probably tell the lady why my daughter is wearing boys long underware (since they are sticking out from under her skirt). As I procede to tell her she starts to laugh so loud. I was a little startled and asked is that ok? She just keeps laughing and says ya its fine I have never had that happen in here before and I just feel bad for the son who had to give them up. Gavin wouldn't go in because his pants now wouldn't stay up so he said "mom I am going to walk around with you".Needless to say all ended up well for all. I got peace from a 2 year old and 6 year old, Gavin got a candy for giving up his underware (mom guilt) and Ayden didn't know any different.

Fun with cornstartch!

The kids have been wanting to try out this experiment ever since I showed them this on you tube. You take corn starch and add water. It is amazing what it does. You can hit it and your hand will not go through it. It becomes a sold when it has pressure put on it. They also made it into balls and as soon as you stop rolling it, it becomes a liquid again. The kids played for hours with it and we made a huge mess but it was worth all of the fun that they had!

The picture is a little fuzzy but it is a ball in his hand as he is rolling it.

This picture is right after he stops rolling it it turns into a liquid again

Aydens Transition Kidergarten Graduation

Ayden graduated from transition kindergarten this year and was very excited. This year was a great year for him at Pima. He learned so much and we are so glad we decided to put him Brighter Day. He made lots of friends but one that was particularly special to him was a girl named Matty. He always talked about her and said she was so nice. He also played with Austin, Luke, and Hunter and had many races with the tricycles around the pathway. I am so glad we decided to wait to put him in kindergaten he seems more ready now than last year. I can't believe I will have 3 children in school this year. This makes me sad because it seems they grow up so fast!
