Mens Work!!!


Scooter recently went skeet shooting with some friends from church, and he decided it would be a good idea to clean his gun today. Little did he know that he would have some very inquisitive help. Little "O" thought this whole process was cool to say the least and he managed to completely overhaul the gun cleaning kit in the process. He cleaned the little pieces he found and daddy cleaned the big pieces. All in all it was a good mans afternoon and when it was all said and done Little "O" gave up and went to nap no doubt dreaming of his next mans adventure with his hero Big Papa!

Hey Where is All Your Hair?


Ok is it just me or did they cut the little girl right out of my "H" when they cut her hair? I think her new do is quite cute but my goodness she looks at least preteen now. She loves her new look too! I think it will take Big Papa a while to get used to it but he seems to see that she loves it and keeps his opinions to himself. I must say it is soooooooo much easier to go places without having to fight with her about brushing her hair. Somehow cutting her hair also made her look 2 feet taller. Weird!

One Down, Too Many to Go!


Finally!!!!! "F" has been waiting, and waiting, and waiting to pull a tooth like her sisters. Now that she is officially 6, she has managed to yank one out of her mouth. The pride is over the top and all of the sudden she is talking a little funny. I think it sounds cute, but I can only imagine it will get even funnier as more of those little babies wiggle their way out. I guess my baby is growing up!

Fourth of July Celebrations!


Five wet little girls in a pool.....How crazy am I? To tell you the truth it was actually very easy. Everyone could touch the bottom in the shallow end except "D" and she wore arm swimmies the whole time. I did find myself constantly counting 1-2-3-4-5 , it was worth it and we had a wonderful time just playing. The food and fireworks were pretty good too.

A little later Big Papa showed up for the festivities and of course Little "O" spent the rest of his time chilling with Daddy. Aren't they so cute in their little sun hats. My two sensitive skin men I just love them so much!!!! Watching them together makes my heart melt. That little boy loves his daddy!!!!!!!

Humh!!! Life is not fair!!! I just want to take these silly arm thingies off so I can swim too. Little does she realize that she will sink to the bottom like a sack of potatoes if she jumps in with no floaties. Sometimes you just have to make them a little mad to keep them safe. Poor "D" keep eating your spinach and you will eventually be big enough to swim free style.

Me and My Pepaw!


At the b-day party Little "O" discovered the joys of Pepaw time. He thought hanging around my dad's neck was the best trick he had learned. I was just thrilled that he was up in the air and not trying to climb the steps to the deck 100 times. Thanks Daddy for becoming Little "O"s jungle gym that night, you were a life saver. No wonder his eyes light up when you come through the door.

Happy 6th B-Day "F"!!!!


Here we are at Memaw and Pepaw's celebrating "F"'s 6th b-day. She loves her cousins so much and wanted them as here special friends at her party. This was the first year she has wanted anybody with her. "F" is quite a shy puppy when all the attention is on her. I think she handled it well though.

Of course before we could head off to Memaw and Pepaw's there was a little tradition that needed to be accomplished so we took the time to let "F" bake her cake in the comforts of our own home. All the girls really love doing this and it makes them feel so much more involved.

Ta Dah!!! One cute little "miss 6" b-day cake.

When it comes to B-day parties who needs entertainment? We have Scooter Boo! Somehow he captures the kids attention every time. I think they think he is a kid himself which makes me happy to have him as my hubby. Who needs a staunchy stiff man to walk through life with. Life is much better when you are able to laugh at it. I know that "F" was thrilled that her daddy took the stares off of her and shifted them onto his antics. Happy Birthday my shy little beauty. You are a treasure to us all and we love you sooooooo much!!!!!!
