Pre-school Graduation


When did I get a preschool graduate?! Abby's last day of pre-school and I'm so sad! I have loved her teacher, loved the school, and I can't believe she'll be starting kindergarten next year! Abby has learned so much this past year and I hope she continues her love of learning. Way to go Abby on a great year! We're proud of you!

Swing Set

When we first moved to Texas 4 years ago we inherited an old metal swing set that by brother had inherited from a friend, who possibly got it from someone else. Needless to say, it was old and after many years of use, falling apart. After looking at sets that would fit the space we needed, we FINALLY, let me rephrase that, I finally bought a new one. One that comes in many little pieces and takes HOURS to put together.

Todd was a rock star! The first weekend he spent many hours getting the wood organized, reading the directions and found out we were missing 10+ pieces. He spent some week nights, in the garage putting things together. He would start well after midnight and work out in the garage for a couple hours. After a many hours and a HUGE blister, the swing set is finished and the girls LOVE it. They especially like the little fort they can climb and hang out in. Thanks Todd for working so hard on the swing-set. The girls will think of you every time they use it :)
Many screws and nails- these are only some of them

4 Months


Happy and healthy 13 pound baby at 4 months! Olivia is close to rolling over from her back to her stomach but gets stuck on her arm. It won't be too much longer until she can do it. She's recognizing family members and gets a big smile when she sees her sisters. She also laughs when I sing to her, apparently I'm a pretty funny singer.

Rainy Days



We had several rainy days and one Saturday I just let the girls play out in the rain for over an hour. They had so much water in their boots when they were done. But, they sure did have a good time.

Deep in the Heart

Abby's pre-school class is preparing a year-end show and this is one of their songs. If I ever hear this song again, I will be picturing Abby singing. Please excuse the gum she is chewing, I should have had her spit it out.

A is for Adorable


I bought these shirts awhile back and Olivia can finally fit into hers so I thought I'd take a picture of all three girls together. What a nightmare! Kaitlyn decided to be uncooperative, even with a cookie as a bribe. Once she did join us, Olivia started to cry. Taking pictures of 3 kids is tough!
NOT adorable


ADORDABLE

I got these two while K was off pouting
