Monkey See Monkey Do

Monkey gets her hair cut too!!

Maya's New Do

Maya decided she wanted her hair cut short. Here's the new do.

State Champ!!!

Check out the new North State Level 5 All-around champion in the silver division!
We are so proud of her. She also earned first on floor, second on bars, and third on beam. She's worked so hard and it's so great to see her do so well.

Mini Me

No... not this one....

Maya.

Isn't it funny how things out of the mouths of children don't sound the same as when adults say them? Every time the kids ask me for something unreasonable I tell them that I want a million dollars and that's not happening either. (Yes, I know.. sarcasm, not a good plan.)

Here's this morning's conversation -
Melody: "Mommy I want to go to Chuck E Cheese"
Me: "Really Melody? Well we can't go right now. It's not even open yet."
Maya: "Well I want to go to the Natatorium but that's not happening either!"

More Pictures

Here are the individual shots. I love them.

Annual Family Picture

Here's this year's picture.

Patriotic Day Parade

Every year Morgan's school has a patriotic day parade, usually on Veterans Day. The two littles decided to come along this year and enjoy the festivities. We all walked the 1 mile walk (I was pushing the two littles in the double jogger - good times.)
Maya and Melody decided to get their groove on to the song stylings of the 4 & 5th grade choir. (***Note**** Maya dressed herself. I just had to mention that.)



Morgan and her good friend Baylee....

Love for Grandma and Grandpa

My parents came to visit this weekend and we had a great time. Grandma always has a way of getting my kids to relax! We got pictures of Grandpa too but they're on Grandma's camera. We'd love to see them mom! Thanks for a great visit.

Addicted to Harry

Much to my delight, Morgan has become addicted to the Harry Potter series. She started the The Sorcerer's Stone last week and finished it this evening. She is understanding it and is excited about it. It's so fun. Of course I took pictures!


She was so proud of herself for finishing all 309 pages and her mother certainly was too!

Halloween Pictures

Behold the Countess of Darkness! (check out her nails!)

Daphne's looking pretty smart! She's ready to solve a mystery.

What's this? Is Daphne a shape shifter? No.. it's the costume of choice for the preschool party.. Supergirl! A girl can never have too many wardrobe changes.

Princess Aurora is blowing you a kiss. Pull up that dress Aurora!! Modesty! Sheesh!

Three unlikely friends.
