SYDNEY-16 MONTHS

KAYLEE'S FIRST SOCCER GAME

Today was Kaylee's first soccer game. Her team is the Power Puffs and she is number 8. I think she had fun other than the fact that she started crying because they wouldn't give her the ball...yeah...we are working on that. Here are a few pics and I will try to post some videos later.

GAME FACE!

DON'T GET TOO EXCITED...THE ABOVE PIC IS JUST WARM UP!

1ST DAY OF.....

SOCCER!!!!!

Brooke's practice with Dad:

AND SCHOOL!!!!!

Brooke praying before school (at the donut shop):

Brooke and Miss Robyn:

Kaylee and Miss Julie (technically Meet the Teacher Night):

Kaylee loved soccer practice and she didn't want to leave. I think it is going to be fun!!!

Brooke had no problems going to school this morning. On the way in she told two or three different adults that she was three, Kaylee was four, and Sydney was one. I thought she was shy, but I am not so sure....maybe she is just snobby?? Anyway, she walked right into her classroom and told us "bye" like she had been doing it all her life. Crazy kid!

And lastly, I thought I would leave you with a little conversation Tim and Kaylee had last night. They were playing outside:

Tim: Kaylee, you need to go in the house now.

Kaylee: no response...just sitting and staring at Tim

Tim: Or, you can get a spanking...

Kaylee: Or, I can just sit here and stare at you..

Wow...we are in trouble!!!!

BLABBER MOUTH!

This video cracks me up. I took it because everytime I would ask her a question she would start babbling. She talks all the time and thinks she is everybody's boss.

BOO!!!

Thought a new post might scare you (since I haven't posted in forever)! And you know what is even worse...I am posting a link to someone else's blog so that you can actually see some pictures of the girls...yes, sad.

My sister and her husband, Steven, came to Abilene for a week. Steven got an awesome camera for his birthday so he put it to good use ( I am not sure he ever put it down). He is great photographer and he got some really good shots of the girls. Thanks, Steven.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY UNCLE STEVEN!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!

(They learned this from Madagascar. If you want to know what Kaylee and Brooke are doing after the song, watch the very beginning of the movie.)

A LITTLE PRE-BIRTHDAY VIDEO

Tomorrow is Brooke Avery's birthday!!! I can't believe she is going to be 3!!!

This video is Brooke opening her birthday present from RonRon and then literally blowing them kisses, along with a little growl from Sydney and Brooke trying to find Steven and RonRon in the camera:

NEW CAMERA!!!!!!!

I am so excited about my new camera (Canon 20D)!!!!!!!! My kids are probably tired of me following them around all day shooting...except for Kaylee...she starts dancing when I get the camera out. So, if anyone needs pics for anything, call me!!! Anyway, these are some random pics that I took of Sydney today trying to figure out how to use everything on the camera.

LITTLE MONSTER

SUMMER TIME!!!!

Today we made it official at our house: It's Summer Time!!! We filled up the swimming pools, hooked up the sprinklers, and had some fun in the sun!!! Sorry the pics aren't that great...my camera wasn't cooperating. (If the girls look a little pale, don't worry, it's just the sunscreen that I caked on them:)

Action Shot: I was taking a pic of Sydney right as Kaylee and Brooke were throwing the huge beach ball into the pool.

SURPRISE!!!!

RonRon and Steven surprised us and came to Texas this past week. Yeah!!! We had fun eating BBQ, making cakes, taking pictures, dying Easter eggs, etc. Here are a few pics of the Easter egg fun:

While Brooke was making eggs, Kaylee was at Western Heritage Day at HSU with her preschool. She was excited about wearing her boots (which were actually my boots long ago).

Here, they are listening to a good ole western story:

She was so proud of her badge!

They ate beans and biscuits...campfire food...I guess.
