School

Anna started school this week. I am a little sad because she will be going three days this year instead of two. She loves her new teachers but is a little apprehensive because she is only one of two girls in the class. Last year, she had a best friend named Kaylin. This year she moved to another school. Anna was very sad but all in all I think she took it very well. Pics to follow very soon........

Last week

Last week the kids and I went to my parent's house. On Sunday we went to the Wilson County Fair. On Monday, my sister came over and they went swimming and played. On Tuesday, we played outside in the sprinkler and hose pipe (a rare treat for those who live in Georgia). On Wednesday we went over to my sister's house for a play date. On Thursday, we played at my parents and waited for Andrew to fly in from Chicago. That night we went out to eat with my cousin Clint and his wife Heather and son Carter. On Friday, Andrew and I took the kids to a wading pool and park. Last but not least on Saturday we celebrated Presley's FOURTH B-DAY!!!!!!! Whew I'm tired.........

Fun at Grammy and Papa's house.....

Award: messiest kid while eating!!!!! Favorite saying while eating "no no". Favorite thing to do while eating-spit!!!!!!!! BAD DREW!!!!!This is the evidence that are cat Ava Grace left while searching for used cutips!!!!! Notice that she is missing from the picture. BAD AVA!!!!! Also you may have noticed that the toilet paper is missing. No, I am not lazy and did not replace the tp when the old one ran out. We have to keep the tp out of reach of bad baby #1!!!!!!

Last but not least Miss Baylee. After pooping on our front rug in protest to her dirty litter box she decided that she needed to lie down and rest!!!! BAD BAD Baylee!!!!! Yes, the litter box was cleaned immediately after the incident!!!! No, she had never done that before......
