School Program

O did so good in her school program. I did a horrible job trying to film it on my little camera (picture camera not camcorder mind you). She is adorable in her little dance- with a boy, hee hee. It is kind of long , but check it out - she is the little strawberry blonde with short hair and in a pink skirt:

MLS (Major League Soccer) here we come ... in a few years at least

After a painful little league soccer year with O last year, this year is M's turn. J was pretty sure she would do well, but to my suprise she has done AWESOME. During M's first game I took O to her school program but J and my dad watched M and said when she got a hold of the soccer ball she would break a way from the pack of little kids and fly down the field and score. This week I got to see her first had and she is AWESOME. (I'm not a proud mom or anything, am I...) It is great getting to watch her have her turn. Being second kid is hard and the oldest gets to do everything first including sports. M had to sit out and just watch last year and that was hard for her. Needless to she is in her element... I think we got a Soccer Baby on our hands. Daddy sure thinks so!

O is doing much better at soccer this year and I think she is enjoying it more. I still think she would rather be the cheerleader on the side with the cute hair and clothes, but she is thinking that soccer is fun at least this year.

Catch Up...

Since the last time I posted the girls talked us into letting them cut their hair off. O's is just above her shoulders and it looks a lot thicker now it is one length. I thought I'd have to straighten it ever day but it turns out to look cute with her curls and the curls have actually gone a little curlier now so it looks way cute. M's is just past her shoulders. It looks the cutest when I make it flip up. She is pretty darn cute too. We have been extremely busy with school things, soccer and playing in the sunshine.

C now has two bottom teeth and he is working on a top tooth. He is pulling himself up to everything and has become a great explorer to my dismay. He is now into EVERYTHING. Oh well... it will pass way to fast I guess. Today he is nine months old. Man time does fly fast. When you are pregnant it seems to last a century but once they are out the time goes by and you blink and they are already nine months old. He is our little bundle of sunshine. I think not a day goes by that he doesn't light up the day for each person in our family. I sure wish he would say Momma instead of Dadda, but we'll get there soon I guess. He loves his sister so much. I think he might be really sad when M has to go to kindergarten next year. They have a ball together during the day while O is at school.

Our little dog Fritz had a tramatic experience. He must have gotten something in under his cheek ear area and he had a huge growth that was hard as a rock. I thought it was going to be a tumor and I was so scared to take him in because I was afraid it would turn out really bad and we wouldn't have him anymore and also I didn't want an outrageous vet bill. It was just an absese so they sliced it open and took all the infection out. Here is his cheek after they sliced it open:
J's work has picked up and we are extremely blessed for that. I love chasing my kids around and getting to stay home with them.
