Our new neice

These are pix's of my little sisters new baby "Lily". Its my sisters first baby. After a loss of 3 other miscarriages they finally received their little blessing.

Boys will be boys

These boys like to fight way too much! Lucas has come to a point where he says he doesn't like to fight with Austin because Austin is just a little bit bigger than Luke. Lol! Luke was very shocked the day he realized that Austin had at least a 1/2 inch on him.

Daddy & me.

Don't we look like two peas in a pod ?

New hair styles

Grace has finally come to a point where we can do some stuff with her hair. The boys say she looks like a girl now!

Halloween

She thinks she needs to be in her walker. I don't know whats up with that. Had to be quick at this picture. this was @ a Halloween carnival.

Little Miss Bumble Bee.

Nice hair

Gracie is having a bad hair day. She had her first pigtail in but by the time I got back with the camera she took out.

This is Grace's little friend Taya from our lake. Grace is 6 weeks younger than Taya.

My barrette

This is Gracie's first snap barrette that stays in her hair. Woohoo!

Gracie has a new friend. Her name is Kylie. I watch her for a few hours during the day. She is 5 months old. Grace gets very jealous sometimes, but for the most part Grace likes her.

Sleeping Gracie

This girl can sleep anywhere!

Ethan and Peyton are best cousins. They try and do everything together. Ethan is on the right if you didn't know.

What happened this summer

Carter caught a whopper! Austin looks on with dismay.

What happened this summer..

Dan convinced me to go on this ride at the fair...little did I know what it was all about. Luke was taking video of us. As I surely thought I was going to die the kids were on the ground laughing there heads off. I will NEVER again let Dan convince me to do anything!!

What happened this summer..

He can still do it, but with good wipe outs such as this he is lucky he didn't break a hip. Lol!

What happened this summer..

Luke learned to wake board this summer!

Laundry!!!!

Just thought you all would like to see what a weeks worth of laundry looks like around here, but this is only half of it. If I only get to laundry once during the week it take me a full 2 days to get caught back up. It sucks and for that I despise laundry!

What happened this summer..

Cousin Jeff loves Gracie! Jeff is 16 years old and I just don't know of many 16 year old boys that really takes pride in having a little cousin. Normally older kids wouldn't really care either way about her, but Jeff is a different kid. He had to come over to see her, play with her, hold her and just spend time with her everyday we were at the lake. Jeff is a awesome kid!

What happened this summer..

Lucas finally....got a hair cut!!! Thank you God!

What happened this summer..

Dan unfortunately lost his job this summer. The only good thing about that was he got to spend lots of time with his family. Gracie finally got to a point where she knew who her dad was.

Were back!

Well I just want to say that I am so sorry to all of you who have been following this blog. This Summer has gone by so fast its just unbelievable! One minute the kids are out of school and the next minute summer is gone and its time for school again. I will do my very best from here on in to keep up on this blog.

Messy Baby!

Gracie has begun to feed her self , but holy cow that makes for a messy baby. Bib or no bib its bath time after every meal she eats by her self.

Nice fish!

Dan and Dave went went fishing Saturday and WOW they caught some nice fish. Too bad for us they only fish for bass. It would be nice if they could fish for something we could eat and not have to catch and release.
