Back to School

Well it's that time of year again.  My babies headed back to school this morning.  Kase to 3rd grade and Koy to Kindergarten round 2.  3rd grade = big deal around here, especially for my Dad.  3rd grade means 4-H, which means pigs!  I don't think Kase is near as excited as he is.  He has been counting down the days since Kase was born!!!

My babies before school

She loves her brothers!

MY WORLD!!!

Just another cool, beautiful day in Texas!  :)

Charity and I went on our annual shopping trip and decided to stay in Fort Worth this time instead of driving home tired.  Here's the view from our room.  Nice, but makes me want to throw up!!!

We also took the boys to Castaway Cove in Wichita Falls.  I didn't get any pictures of course, but here is Tara sleeping in the hotel room.  My mom gave her my old sock monkey that my great grandmother gave me, and she LOVES the thing!  I'm already looking for a replacement b/c I don't think this one will last too much longer.

Luke and Koy at movie night in the park downtown.  Our sorority did the concession stand so they were "helping".

Tyler and Kase at movie night.

Tara at movie night.

Beginning day sorority party at the lake.  Melissa was feeding her "the good stuff" aka dessert.

I'm pretty sure she was saying "it's late mom, decided if we are going or staying and get me to bed!"

"Who me?"

I've been hiding and 10 Months

I've been hiding under mounds of fabric, but I'm coming up for air for a few minutes.  Now that Tara is almost 11 months old, it's time to post her 10 month stats!

Weight: 21 lbs 6 oz

Clothes: 12-24 Months

Still 7 teeth and not really any new tricks. 

Words she is saying: Momma, Dada, Kasey, Shoes, Bye bye,

"This is me when I have to sit down and be still!"

"And this is me when I get my way and get to stand up and get into stuff!"

He thinks he's pretty cool!

Koy broke his arm this summer when he fell out of his dad's pickup.  It broke it so high up (almost at the shoulder) that they couldn't put a cast on it.  Luckily it was in perfect alignment, so we just had to wear a sling and be careful for 4 weeks.  Trying to make a 6 year old with an older brother be careful is not easy!!!  As if the broken arm wasn't enough, he got stung by several wasps too!

We went on a mini vacation to Possum Kingdom for a couple of days.

My girl loves to eat!

Trying to warm up after a late afternoon swim.  Notice there isn't even a fire!

Cool guy Jackson was tired after the boat ride.

Getting ready....

Typical day - Koy choking Emma and her laughing about it!  They are going to be in the same class this year......sorry Mrs. F!!!

I wish I would have gotten some pictures of Kase tubing but I forgot my camera.  He was awesome and is such a daredevil.  He really scares me!

Behind again!

I'm behind again, so here's a few pictures! 

4th of July!  Her Aunt Kim fixed her hair this time!

All the kids lined up ready for fireworks

She wasn't too sure about them

I almost got her scrunchy face.  I've been trying for a while!!!

Kate has been staying with me all week, and I decided it was time for her first hair cut, whether her mom and dad liked it or not.  I'm sure I'm in BIG trouble, but it needed to be done!!!  This was waiting before the cut....

Tara waiting

Sweet girls playing

And now she's a little nervous!!!

After we got home and washed and dried it.  Soooo much better! 

Showing off her new headband I got her for being such a good girl!

Fandangle 2010

At the parade - Mean little turkey was pinching Kamryn!

Kamryn, Tara & Cutter

Nosey Rosy!  I was trying to get a picture of Kamryn but she kept sticking her face in front of the camera!

Robert pulling the Beehive float

I just got the back of the float but it was pretty cute!  They won best float overall!

She missed her nap for the parade and she was a sleepy girl!

Hanging out backstage

The little devils.  So Cute!!!

Kase and Hannah - Partners since day one!

Koy and Leddie

She was a trooper for sure!  Last night of the show and she was exhausted!  I love the one shoe on, one shoe off. 

Yes, this is my laundry pile after a full month of Fandanlge!!!  Just keeping it real!
