First Day of Preschool

Today was Gretchen's first day of Preschool, and she was so excited.  She has the same teacher Easton had and Easton has been telling her all about it for a week now.  She didn't even complain when I told her we had to do her hair.  She looked super cute and even talked when we got there, which I was a little worried about.  I can't believe she is old enough to go to school.  We are trying to grow out the bangs and I think it makes her look older.  I don't know how I feel about that. 

Grandma and Grandpa's

We went to Idaho last weekend. Easton and Gretchen love going to Grandma and Grandpa's.  Uncle Creed and Aunt Trish brought there horses by and let the kids ride them.  They loved it I think it was there first time riding a horse. 

We also went to the fair while we were there.  Easton and Gretchen thought it was pretty cool.  Kinslee wasn't a big fan.  She didn't like sitting in the stroller that long.  Grandma put Easton and Gretchen to work in the yard.  They moved rocks for her.  They each earned money they were so excited.

Kinslee was super ornery most of the time we were there.  She seems to be happiest at home.  This picture was taken at 5am when she wouldn't sleep.  She was being all smiley and I tried to get pictures of her smiling but my camera is to slow to capture the smile before the flash distracts her.  She is still dang cute even thought she screams and is ornery. 

First Day of School

Today Easton started First Grade.  He had a good day and was excited to have a few friends in his class.  He got girl trapped at lunch and got stung by a bee at recess.  He had a very eventful day for the first day of school.  He thinks his teacher is going to be nice and they are going to do fun stuff all year long. 

Hard at work

Gretchen got a pink couch from her grandparent's for her birthday.  Kinslee loves getting on it.  Yesterday I found her sitting on it with Gretchen's pink laptop.  I had to grab the camera because i thought it was so dang cute.

 

8 months

Kinslee is 8 months old and she is crawling like crazy and now she is standing up to everything.  Her favorite thing to play with is Gretchen's Doll house.  It is as tall as her and she looks so dang cute when she is playing with it.   

Easton loves putting his hat on her because she can't get it off and she just plays with it on.   

I decided I better pull the camera out more often because she would be all smiles then i would try take a picture and she would just give me a blank stare. 

Goose Egg

 A week or so ago Easton fell off our hammock and landed head first on the metal stand.   

 It turned blue and he had a pretty big goose egg for a few days.

He still has a little bump.  Last night he informed me that he grew a new bone and it is going to stick out forever.  

9th Anniversary

Beware Cheesy post ahead

Today is our 9th wedding anniversary.  I am so glad that almost 11 years ago our roommates sort of pushed us together.  I Love Chad with all of my heart and can't imagine my life without him.  I am so lucky to be able to spend eternity with him.  Thank you for being such a good husband and father. 

I Love You!!!

My Amazing Husband!

Chad told me awhile ago that he wanted to do a triathlon. I told him I would come watch when he did it. Today he did a reverse sprint triathlon. He did awesome. I am so proud of him.

 Starting off the run He is the one in the navy blue shirt and black shorts.

 Starting off on his bike ride.  This is his favorite part.

His swim

He proud supporters

 Kinslee preferred to eat her sign.  

 The loved watching for there dad and holding up there signs.  Who knew that cheering and watching someone else do a triathlon was so tiring.  

Kinslee was asleep also she just wasn't in the picture. 

Swings

 A few weeks ago while we were playing at Aunt Andrea's and Charly took Kinslee out to play with the kids.   She got in a swing for the first time.  I am such an awesome mom there is a park in our backyard and I have never put her on the swings.  She loves it as you can see.




  I am glad Charly and Noelle are such awesome cousins to push my kids on the swings.
