Yeee Haw!

Many of our days are spent pretend playing and being various characters in our favorite movies or firefighters, vets, clowns, doctors, or princesses .  For sometime now, actually, since I was a pregnant Jessie for Halloween, Kennedy has asked me to make her Jesse chaps.  So after months, here they are!  Our version of Jessie chaps...the material is so soft and it easily hot glued onto her old jeans...and this brought my little lady the biggest smile, and made my day!  To our surprise, this may be the one thing that she will wear aside from a dress!

And as I am sure you are all wondering, Bryce was quick to ask for a pair of his own chaps....

We're Rolling on...

Well I had good intentions to maintain my blog, and can now say that I am recomitted to this venture now that Austin is 6 months (yes, 6 months!) old and into a more predicatable routine.  He has been sleeping through the night since 3 months so I have no excuses.  I guess I should also admit, that I am too now into a routine and can spare a few minutes in the evening to keeping up!  Who said being a mom of three, wife, friend, and working was an easy task?

My sweet Austin is now moving full throttle ahead to keep up with his big bro and sis!  He is rolling all over to get from place to place and has started to reach while on his stomach and pull his knees in, I think though he is my biggest baby (I am guessing he is about 20 lbs-we'll see tomorrow), he may be my earliest crawler!  He has started eating my homemade baby food, another first for me, and just loves avocados!  He isn't too sure about nectarines...but loves his nanas! If the spoon is out of reach he extends all limbs out and begins to tense and shake them until you shovel in another scoop-too funny! 






Bryce graduated from Miss Bontempo's Pre-K4 and is getting ready to head to kindergarten and both he and Kennedy have enjoyed their summer home with mama!  We have had so much fun just being lazy, doing art projects, going to the pool, movies, bowling (Bryce broke 100!), enjoying parks, and all of our friends!  Bryce is now in his second season of soccer and scored four goals our first session!  He is beginning to swim on his own, and is hoping to pass the swim test at lessons this week!  If he passes he can go on all the slides as well as the diving board- I am not sure I am ready for that!  Kennedy is just turning into the spunkiest young lady!  She is now three and independent as can be, and continues to wear dresses, and ONLY dresses everyday.  She is enjoying riding her tricycle, caring for babies, playing with her best bud Bryce and swimming! She is excited to head back to school a few days a week next year and hang out with her Aunt Connie and Ashten everyday!  She is growing her hair as long as Rapunzel's and is ecstatic to go back and see the Fresh Beat Band again at the Allentown Fair....as our summer winds down we will be heading to the Philadelphia Zoo, SIC, so stay tuned for pics...
