Lessons I Learned as a Boy

Lessons I Learned as a Boy

I hope we can raise our boy like these!

Busy

Well thank heavens for sleep and sweet peacefulness in our house! We have been busy and I am wondering if it is ever going to slow down till Christmas. Here are the kids snuggled up because both of them are to afraid to sleep alone!
These gals love to be together most of the time and we have been driving around most days to see a baby horse that was born. They think it is so cool that they can get out of their car seat and sit together and look out the window. Whit always says whenever we get in the car now"bebe horsee".
We went to the doctor a few weeks ago and little miss was 23 pounds and so divaish!!!! She had her baby and glasses and was the star of the office! She did get 3 shots and was so sad but cheered up quick knowing she would get 2 suckers!
We went to a princess at Chick fil a night and the girls got free dinner if they dressed up. They thought it was great, and Jaxson was at a pirate birthday and was busy so it worked out great!
We had Mya's eye appointment and I guess this baby might be in many pictures until this phase is over. Well she did great and her eyes are working fine. No more check ups for 2 years!!!!!
So I may turn into a Diva and hide for a bit, parties, family pictures, soccer, dance, church, birthdays, baptisms, and trips are coming our way. Hopefully can keep up with the updates until then_TTFN!

Cool times atthe cabin~

We got to go up north to the cabin for fall break and had a great relaxing time! My brother in law rented a golf cart that was the hit of the weekend. Here we are on a joy ride with the family!!!!
The kids were entertained for hours with sticks and searching for rocks with "gold" they had so much fun together and got along great!
The girls played dress up one morning that it was rather cool (45) and they needed to stay inside. Dancing and changing outfits lots of times made everyone smile!!!! Here is my little flapper girl lookin so cute!!!!!
The models Sydni and Jaycie with Mya lookin a bit drunk! Sweet little girls!
The hammock is always a hit too with laying and resting and swinging and swinging. It makes me a little sick so I have to not move if I lay in it. These girls sure love their Bobba and enjoy every time she is around!
The 3 musketeers were trouble trying to climb the rafters. They got really good going down the steps to the lower level and were great explorers too. They love to go on walks and get dirty.
Our little son will be really driving sooner than we think. He will be 8 this week and I can't believe it. He is such a great kid and a good example to his sisters.
Papa was home and it was so great to have his sweet smile and laughter around! We love him lots!
Adam and the kids before our crazy ride!!! Everyone got a turn to drive and I felt pretty ill once we landed back home!
The town square was having a craft show and so we got to go walk around and get some water balloon punchers. Also we had the best mini doughnuts ever!
What a sweetie! She is so great!
I sure love this guy and all he puts up with from me. He is such a great dad and husband and I appreciate that he even watched the kids so my sister and parents could go out to a movie one night it was a great break!

There was also a cool car show that we got to see and the kids were interested for about 10 minutes. Oh well we had a great time as always at the good ol cabin and hope to return again soon.

Soccer

Jaxson has been playin soccer and loves it so much!!!!!! This past game he was a star and made 2 great goals!!!! He was so proud as were we his family.
He also is a pretty great goalie and blocked 4 balls and had a header on one too! He is sure a positive person and when others were tired or being picked on he stood up for them and cheered them up. Way to go buddy we love you and are so proud of you!

It's still a little hot!

Well we had to take a break from putting up the playground for a ice cream break and Whit was so excited!!!!!!!
Dad and the kids were working so hard and I helped to mind you! It has had lots of use and fun already!!!!!

I will have to get one of the finished project but here's to some cooler weather to play outside everyday!!! Oh ans for Mya swing and swing and "fwing" and swing some more!!!!!!

Party Party

We got invited to a fabulous party for the kids today and the girls had a spooktacular time!

They wore their Halloween clothes because Mya didn't want to dress up. We got to hang out and play with our sweet friends. Mya and Ella are only 6 days apart and are growing up soooooo fast. They played tons of fun games and decorated pumpkins and had a pinata!
Mya was on a sugar high for sure all day! Whit also couldn't get enough yummies!
Here she is piggin out on the cheese balls, they were a big hit! Kellie also had these ghoul oranges filled with fruit, and cinnamon sugar ghost chips, mummy hot dogs, and a snake pizza. It was such a fun time and makes me want to savor and enjoy every holiday. We came home with lots of loot and Jaxson was a bit jealous I guess we need to take a date and get a pumpkin for him too now. Happy Haunting or Partying!!!!!

A day

So a day in our life these days is going great! We have a good routine and mostly happy restful days! Here are the girls prior to getting Mya's hair done :) They sure play great together and love to be around each other as long and Whitney does what Mya tells her to do!
Sweet Whitney sure loves her sister and is turning into a mini Mya for sure! She likes to get herself dressed and walk around in "slip slops", and have a purse and baby all the time! Lets say it takes us usually 5-10 minutes more than average to get out of the house with these girls and their baggage!!!!

Here is a sweet girl at school working on the "puter" she loves dot com! She says no mom put on "dot com!" She loves to wake up these days and get dressed in the greatest ensembles of skirts and sweaters. Then she gathers her things and comes to tell me to wake up. then the rest of us wake up get ready breakfast and out the door. We have been good at going to school, then to the gym on most days. Then we drop Mya at school and come home for a few hours of clean up and catch up and shower and off to pick her up. Then home for lunch and rest time and then Jaxson comes home and daddy. We get homework done have dinner and maybe go out for an errand or a treat and home for baths and bed. Love a routine and stickin to it! Usually happy kids and mom are the end result which is a great end to a full day!
