Track Meet

The boys had their track meet at school yesterday and I think it's safe to say we've got one pretty good athlete on our hands, and one, um, well.........hahaha O how I love my boys!!!

Getting ready for the long jump

Run, run, run

He's in the zone, I think!  Or maybe he's just daydreaming!

This is too funny.  I guess I caught them when they hit the ground and I love how their faces look!

Waiting for the softball throw.  I can't believe how big and grown up my baby boy is getting!

I guess this is what boys do when they are waiting in between events!

He got a little air on that one!

It's always close with those two.  I can't wait for high school!  I'm ready for some FOOTBALL!!!  He may be little, but he's a tough little toot!

Catfish and Mud

We were suppsoed to go camping this weekend, so Thursday night we made a little trip to Abilene for a few cart full of supplies.  We ended up not going because of the rain, but Robert still took the boys fishing Saturday.  He called and told me to meet him at Larry's with my camera because the boys wanted me to take pictures of the fish they caught.  Honestly, I didn't expect a lot, but I was pretty proud of them when I got there!  Kase caught two of them (the two big ones according to him) and Koy caught one too.  Of course we had catfish for supper and Koy, the pickiest child in the WORLD ate it!!! 

Looks like he went all the way in for his!

Koy was pouting because he didn't want to hold them.  He was afraid they would bite his finger off!

We finally convinced him it was okay but he still wasn't too sure!

They are going to love looking back at this picture when they are older!

I decided that I needed some pictures to go with my new name, so here are a few of the results!  I'm sure you are all thinking I'm crazy or even mean but I would not and did not hurt my baby!  I actually thought she would like it, but I guess the cool water was not her idea of fun!

If looks could kill!!!  I don't know what she was thinking, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't nice!

These two were taken Friday night but it started raining on us so this was all I got.  I guess I was feeling brave because we tried it again on Sunday! 

But she did finally calm down a little and I got several cute pictures and hopefully I haven't ruined her for life!

This is the last time, I promise!

If you know me at all, you know that I like to jump into things, before I'm really ready. So yes, I did it again. I was sooooo ready to start my new blog and I wasn't convinced on the name, but I started it anyway. Well now I've finally decided for sure on a name so I'm moving one more time, and then I'm done! So, the new name is...........drumroll please...........----------->

Mother's Day

Saturday the kiddos and I headed to Lakeside City to take a load of stuff for the citywide garage sale in a couple of weeks.  We stayed up pretty late pricing clothes and then got up Sunday morning and headed to Olney to surprise my mom by showing up at church.  Here are a few pictures we took after church.

Me and my babies - One of these days I'll get a good picture of all of us!

The girls

Dad, Mom and Tara

Nana and her baby girl

Ha ha ha I tried!!!  Mason, Sam, Koy, Kase & Tara

Kase: "Hurry Mom, I'm about to drop her!"

Stinky stinky boys!

 

It's Official

I started my new blog so go check it out here. Ruffles and Bling  It still needs a TON of work, but I had some projects I wanted to go ahead and get posted.  Follow if you want and pass the word around!  ETSY SHOP COMING SOON!!!!!

And here is a picture just because.

7 Months and Name my Blog

No dr. visit this month, so I don't know height and weight, but I'm pretty sure she's kind of leveled off since she grew quite a bit really quick.  She is still growing for sure, just not as much as she was.

Clothes: Still 6-9 and 9-12 months, but some of the 6-9 sizes are getting a little snug.

Food: She has started on the 2nd foods and can eat a whole jar for lunch and supper.  She loves to eat, and seems to like the veggies more than the fruits.

She is rolling everywhere, has started sleeping on her tummy now that she's figured out that she can, and has started getting up on her knees the last few days.  It's all happening so quick.  I want her to stay little!!!

First ponytail (if you really want to call it that!): April 23

Waved Bye Bye: April 15

Clapped:  April 24

3rd Tooth (Top left "fang"):  April 20  The other three on top are soooo close.  I can see them, just can't feel the points yet.  I think within the next few days she will have 6 teeth through!  As you can see, 4 teeth at a time is not a lot of fun!     

But sometimes having a bottle helps!  (And tylenol!)  (It's soooo scary how much she looks like her daddy.......)

She loves her books (Notice the tylenol? haha  No, I was not letting her play with it!  I took it out of her bed as soon as I took the picture.)

I took Koy to the dr last week because he was running fever and he ended up having strep throat.  Poor guy got the head phones on but that was as far as he made it, never even got a movie in the player! 

And I just noticed that his straps are twisted.......that drives me CRAZY!!!

On another note, I'm adding a poll so my sidebar so I want you to vote on my names!  Thank you!

I need name suggestions.......and not for a baby this time!

I think it's time for me to start up a "craft" blog to seperate my personal life from my sewing life!  Any suggestions on names?
