Growing Grass

Nope not for our yard..but for a science project. Kyson came home today from preschool with his very own cup of grass. His dad says that they are going to plant it in our backyard because well we need grass and hopefully this winter we will have some. Kyson sure loves school. He was bummed out on Tuesday when he couldn't go because the stomach flu was going around. I didn't want to take any chances of him bringing home that bug. NO WAY!! He is learning..slowly. But more, he just likes to go and be with his friends. Everytime I drop him off and he sees one of his little buddies walking up to the door he will yell, "HEY LOGAN!!" or whom ever it might be. He is a social butterfly I can only imagine what he is like in class. :0)

Baby Girl at Seven Months

This is my baby girl

Happy as can be all the time

If she doesn't look happy she is either studying you, or thinking.

She is already so onservant and thoughtful of whats going on around her.

 She is quite mobile..crawling. But she gets up on all fours and rocks. Today even was the first time I caught her going from belly to the sitting postion. Time to lower that crib because soon she will be pulling herself up.

 She is seven months old and has two teeth! I would have liked for those two suckers to stay hidden for another 5 months but what are you gonna do.

 She makes my heart melt. Still refusing to eat more than what I give her..but she will mouth and play with cherrios and star puffs. But heck no to solids. No thank you. I really need to get a picture of the face she makes. Its hilarious.

Father's and Son's

The boys had their first Father's and Son's Campout. I can't tell you how excited Kyson was. He kept telling me, "No mommys are coming, right?!" He was so excited to spend some time alone with his dad. These two are major buddies.

See it, all over his face..excitment!

  I was told this little boy ate 3 hot dogs! Buns and all!! That is a record. They had Kyson and Kurtis' favorites....M&Ms, Smores, sour candies, poptarts.

He had fun my little character and he was grumpy when they got home..he didn't want to come back. He asks me everyday when him and his dad are going to go back to the camp site.



Handsome and Baby Girl

 My handsome little man.

 And my pretty baby girl.

I can't tell you what joy I have watching these two grow close to one another. They already have such a sweet little bond and it just makes my heart skip a beat.

I'm a Contestant!!!

I’m a Season 6 Contestant for the Win, Lose or Blog Contest!! I can not believe it! I am so excited to lose more weight. I just bought a scale the other day because I have to send in pictures of my weight every Sunday to weigh in. Now I was disappointed to find out that my scale has me weighing 3 more pounds than my Wii Fit scale. SUCH a bummer but I will go off this weight from now on. Hey that still means I’ve lost 8 pounds in almost 6 weeks. I will take that! With my birthday this weekend and my anniversary next weekend I know I am going to have some slip ups but I will hold strong after that. Yay for a skinnier me!!

About our little Kenna

 She loves to bounce!!

 She rolled over onto her belly August 10th!!

 She still is NOT a fan of baby food. We have tried

Oatmeal

Rice Cereal

Carrots

Bananas (She seemed to like them but it didn't sit well with her. We haven't tried again yet)

Squash

 5 Months

 Loves to chill in the bath

 Can finally wear some size 1 shoes. She has the tiniest feet!!

 Loves to play with her feet and eat her toes.

But most of all her favorite toy is this Giraffe. This giraffe used to be mine and I have passed it on to Ky and now to Kenna. She is in love with it.

Last but not least. I don't have a picture but..SHE HAS HER FIRST TOOTH!!!

Mommy discovered her first tooth on September 2nd.

She is growing up to fast!! Its almost time for me to start thinking of her 1st birthday!! Ahh!! :0)

We have ourselves a Preschooler!!

 His first school assignment

 He was very excited!!

 FIRST DAY OF PRESCHOOL!!

In my family it was tradition to take pictures in the front yard or by the front door before you went to your first day of school that year. I plan to do that with my kiddos. Kyson loves going to preschool. He is making so many great friends. Its more of an adjustment for me to have him gone so much but he loves it. He looks forward to it and makes me think that the two days a week was more for me than him. Ha ha. He will definately be ready for Kindergarten when the time comes.

Gone Fishin

 Kyson's first fishing experience

 Found himself some crawdad arms

After way to long for a child his age to wait he finally caught one. He was super excited!!
