Dance class

Alexis has now started her first dance class. She was so excited to have a dance outfit. Sam went uot and got her the whole outfit. The dance class is a lot of fun. She plays with hoola hoops and ribbins and dancing to all kinds of music. This is a mommy and baby class so I get plenty of excercise twirrling her all around, and helping her do the moves that they show. Oh well it is good fun for all of us. Connor has a good time sitting on the side lines and laughing at some of the moves that we are trying to do. That is a big brother for you.

Football Season

Football season is in full swing at our house. As you can see Connor is ready to play as well. He told me that he was wearing it to get used to it for when he is able to play. And besides I have to wear a helmet to ride my bike. Right. Well now you know what it is like at my house. I am not winning this fight. And he isnt even old enough to play. Oh well. At least if he falls his head wont hurt.

Daddy time

Sam had a wonderful time teaching Alexis how to ride her bike. She wants so much to be a big kid like her brother. Unfortunatly I don't think that her dad is realy ready for her to grow up so fast. I know I am not. Oh well she loves ridding her bike up and down the street with her brother. Summer fun in our house.

First game

Here is Connors first game. I am coaching for the first time so it is a learning experiance for the both of us. I am so proud of him. He is trying so hard and loves to play. There is an encredible drive in him that I am just starting to see. It is nice that he loves to do something this much.

First day

So it was Connors first day of school. He was so excited to ride the bus that when he found out I was going to drive him this first day he couldnt believe it. When we droped him off at the school he didn't say good bye or wave or give us kisses. No my son gave me a head nod and went on his way like it was no big deal. When he got home all he wanted to talk about was the bus, and how the other kids wouldn't play with him because they were to scared to do anything. Oh well. I guess he was ready to go and be the big kid on the bus. It was anti climatic that I feel like I got jiped from some kind of emotion. That is my son. The its no big deal mom. Well I got to love him.

Me to

Abby has had a good summer to. She couldnt be left out. Alexis wouldn't let it happen.

Rock climbing

Connor is so much a boy. He decided to go off and climb the rocks. Well his sister had to be big to. He is so patient and understanding with her. I couldn't ask for more from him. He decided to help his sister be the big kid she wants to be.

A day at the beach

She Is now into taking off her shoes and digging her feet in the sand. She is dancing to her brother singing as he is climbing. What a pair.

Last summer trip

Well this has become our last trip of the summer. We went fishing and as you can see we caught some good ones. Alexis wanted nothing to do with the fish. She even asked her dad to put them back in the lake. She is my animal activist. Oh well the boys had a good time with them. They made a good lunch though. Connor starts school on wednesday and I will be putting thoes up as sonn as I can. He is very excited.

Soccer camp

Connor had a great time doing a "Big kid camp"

this summer. He did a UK soccer camp that was amazingly down the street from us. He learned some great moves and learned how to think of it as a team. Big things for 5.

My babys

Alexis, Addie, and Taylor all love to play together. Alexis calls them her babys and has a good time helping to take care of them. That is till they want to do there own thing.
