Paper? Who needs paper???

Just because you run out of paper it doesn't mean you need to stop painting....





When you run out of paper

Our Littlest Artist

In case you were wonder it is a "neigh"! She is quite proud and will tell you all about painting it!

pig tails!

Yes she is sitting on the "big girl potty" No she is not potty trained, she sits on the potty puts on a diaper or underwear then promptly pees! And No I don't know why I get the cute pictures of her hair-do's in the bathroom. We don't even do our hair in there!

Scout Graduation

Thursday night was a big night for both scouts in our family. Matthew received both his tiger and his Wolf badge. He had actually earned his tiger a month or so ago but received it last night. He then graduated with his den to wolf. Brian also officially took over as Cub Master. I was then informed later in the evening that I was to be the official scrapbooker...we'll see!
Not sure what he was looking at here but I kind of liked the picture. So here it is!

Great Weekend

We had a wonderful weekend. It started out with grilling on our friends deck Friday night. We ate like kings and enjoyed great ADULT conversation (Jenn and I needed it it!).
Saturday morning the whole family went out with the scouts on a four mile hike cleaning up trash along a local hiking/biking trail.
From there we went straight to Matthew's soccer game. I have to say the boy scored quite a nice goal...the other teams parents were even cheering for him!

The boy flew down the field more than once!
We enjoyed a little grilled pizza with Jenn, Jeff and the kids Saturday night. Whitney tried telling Katherine the finer points of using a potty. 7 pair of underwear and an hour later we were back in diapers!

Sunday we got some planting done in the front yard and went to Chesapeake Jubilee. We enjoyed some fair food and rides. Unfortunately we had to run as the concert started to avoid the rain. Katherine was tuckered out and fell asleep in the car. We brought her in and put her on the chair and a half thinking she would wake up shortly (it was 4:30). She slept through the TV and popcorn popping and finally woke up at 6:00!
(more pictures coming of the fair-check back later)

It was perfect weather for being so sick. It has rained almost nonstop for two days. Katherine's had a 101+ fever since Saturday. Today it broke...for the morning. Now after a 3 hour 45 minute nap its back to 100. She looks pitiful and sounds even worse.
This is one of the better looking pictures of her watching the rain today.
Matthew and Bailey on the other hand have thoroughly enjoyed this wonderful weather...I have to admit I think its been a little fun too. Got to get my toes wet with the boy and lay on the sofa bed eating popcorn and watching movies with the girl.

Hero times 2

Mommy saved a turtle on Saturday and Daddy saved one Sunday. Daddy's made it into our kitchen for a few hours much to the delight of both children.

Outside Fun

Matthew had a blast on Sunday in his new toy.

Love This One

I just got this from Joe's niece via Alison. For those that don't know, Alison and Joe released butterflies in the wedding and this one seemed to like Matthew.

Birthday Girl

My baby is 2! Her party was at the Zoo and park. She and three friends enjoyed a walk around the zoo, zoo tales and a picnic lunch in the park. Baby girl was exhausted and fell right to sleep in the car!

The Wedding

Alison's and Joe's wedding was absolutely beautiful and I have never seen Alison so beautiful! Unfortunately I was so busy that I didn't take any pictures. I got mom to take a couple but I only have one of the bride and groom! Matthew looked soooo handsome in his tux and he did a great job as the ring bearer. I couldn't have been more proud. As for Katherine at least she didn't run screaming! She dumped out the basket and yelled "I did it" instead!

Matthew, Katherine, Daddy and Gramps went to see the Alamo while Beste and I decorated for the wedding. Matthew in formed me that the Alamo didn't do any good so there probably shouldn't have spent the time building it!!!

Matthew, Kather

Bachelorete Party

Katherine was by far the youngest at the party but she sure did like Aunti Ali's ears she (Ali) was forced to wear. I'm not sure daddy will be to thrilled with his little playboy bunny!

Little Mama

Matthew came in one day feeling sick-sick enough he went to bed at 4:30 in the afternoon on a gorgeous day. Katherine was quite worried about him and after she had checked on him she began to take care of her baby who was now sick!

First Hair Cut

Okay so it was actually a bang trim but still it broke my heart. It was just one more sign my baby is growing up!



my little helper
Viola! Hows that for a smile! Makes you not pay attention tothe somewhat crooked trim--I blame the crooked on my little assistant of course!
