I am back!

Yes we went private for a few months because I am a dork. 

It seems like we have been sick all summer, we all get well and then something else hits.  UGH!! 

 The back yard tent!

 Robert

 Robert will not sit still on my lap but with Lew he will sit for hours. 

What is the deal?

 Kymmie and her sock cast?

Who knows what she was thinking?

 Dev falls asleep in the strangest places. 

 This is just one example.

 Miss Kym on the fish hatchery field trip.

 Danni, Mom and Me on the plane to Oregon.

Sorry about the nose shot.

 In Oregon we went to a drive thur wildlife park. 

It was awesome.

 The reason we went to Oregon   Jennifer and Rich's wedding

It was so fun I don;t know why I didn't get a pic of both of them together.

 Mom got her ears pierced for her 50th birthday.

 Dev gave herself a hair cut. 

It turned out really cute.

 The girls loved school.

 Dev's 4th birthday.

She loves the show Dinosaur train so she wanted a dinosaur train cake.

 They also had a spa day with a honey mask and a bubble bath.

One problem then want one every night now.  :)

 Her cake was not one of my favorites but she loved it so that is what matters.

 Kym's 7th birthday. 

 She had two different cakes this one she picked out.

 She got Scriptures for her birthday. 

She was so happy.

Despite the illness we have been having a great summer.  

Where did October go?

The girls have become scientist.   They got huge suckers from the back to school night, well I was sick of them taking up counter space for like a month .  One day I came up with a plan we would see what happened to the suckers if we put them in water.  The girls were excited and with in a few hours the suckers were gone and the water was black (they were multi colored suckers.) 

The girls loved it so much that in the past month they have seen how long a candy bar, a gummy bear,  and other suckers take to dissolve in water.  The couldn't understand why the chocolate on the candy bar didn't dissolve. 

The best experiment happened last night.   Before bed I found a boiled egg in a glass of water on the floor.  I decided that whoever made the mess could clean it up today.  Well first thing this morning Dev wants to know what happened to her egg.  I am so glad I didn't throw it away.  Every time she walked by it today she would poke it and say "Mom it is still the same!"  I don't know where we got her but we are sure glad we did.  At dinner tonight I wasn't pay much attention to her.  Kym walked around the table and whispered in my ear.  "Do you see what Devyn is doing?" 

Well she was using the Ranch dressing as lotion.  Both legs and arms were covered. 

Robert is walking and babbling, he just grunts and the girls get him what he wants.  He may never talk with slaves like that.  He loves his toy truck, any ball and hammers. 

He is starting to warm up to Cooper (the dog).  The first few weeks we had him Robert didn't want anything to do with him.  Now he pats Cooper's head and lets Cooper sniff him. 

Kymmie is doing great at school the first term just ended.    She started violin yesterday and has been taking ballet since September she is loving both.  She gets to be the Angel in the violin Christmas recital.   She can't wait, Dev says she is going to be an Angel too.  She has to do everything her sister does. 

Last week I didn't feel well, when I finally came out of my cough syrup induced coma  cold I discovered the house was covered with purple and red glitter, and neon construction paper.  I really was awake when the kids were I was just out of it.  I am the top runner for mother of the year. 

Man Kymmie being in school full time has clipped my wings.   We still keep the road hot. 

Robert is 1!

A great birthday!

First day of school

 Devyn's first day of preschool.  She was so happy to be going to school. 

 Love my girls!

 Dev walking away from me, I didn't cry that day but I am right now.

 Kym's first day of 1st grade.  She was so excited.

 Her walking away too. 

 This was the day we met Kym's new teacher  Mrs. Rich. 

Kymmie really likes her. 

Love it when the backpacks are hanging up, cause that means my girls are home. 

DEVYN!!

Dev is the topic today.

She has been cracking me up all the time.

CRAZY!

I don't know where we got her.

I guess she is going to wear the same shirt from now on. It is a blue one with princesses on it. She put it back on today when I asked her why she told me "cause someone has to wear it!" Last time I let her wear it she wore it for 3 days straight. It is going to have to go into hiding again.

At 8:10 she starts telling us it is time to get Kymmie from school. She carries around a purse most of the day so she is ready when it is time to get her sister.

She taught Robert how to walk! One day I went outside for a minute Robert was in his play pen. When I came in Dev had him by the hands walking him across the family room. Yelling "Look Mom he is walking!!" of course she got yelled at. But a few days later when he took his first step without holding on She keeps telling us it was her who taught him to walk.

She wants her hair cut everyday. Thank heavens she knows not to cut her own hair.

All the sudden she is in love with Justin bebier. I think Kym has a lot to do with that.

She lobes her people. I finally realized she meant her class friends.

She either lobes something or doesn't lobe it. There is no in between. Oh and lobes is loves.
