A kodak moment

What a beautiful day outdoors to snap some photos! It was a little bright so little miss sunshine didn't want her eyes open. Oh well...the pictures are simply perfect either way! ENJOY!

Lucy wanted to show off her growing belly! Her pups should be here soon! We GUESS in the next few weeks!

Andrew hanging out with his little sis! Aw...how cute is that?

Mary playing at the gym!

Rick and Ester (all the way from the Philipines), Dad, Mom and miss Katie in our garden.

Mama and her little girl!

Daddy and his little girl!

It's a TWIZZLER day!

Mary found the TWIZZLERS! Did I happen to mention that it's only 10:11am! She loves them! It doesn't matter what time it is..she cannot say "no" to the sweet red stuff!

School has started!

Daddy and Mary played in Mary's pillow pile!

The boys posing for their first day of school with their little sister! YEAH!! I can't believe how quickly this summer flew by!

Our little girl is growing up

The boys in their classrooms.


Katie turned 2 months old on Sunday. We tried to capture a picture with her hair. If you look real close, you can see the peach fuzz on the top of her head. Someday she'll have long locks like her big sister, Mary. The boys went to meet their new teachers yesterday. Can hardly believe how old the boys are getting! School starts tomorrow for them. Yea...Mary will be so lonely without her brothers around! Watch out Lucy and Charlie!

A Kodak moment

Mary and Katie posed for pictures today. Mary loves her "Bono" glasses!

The boys invited some friends over today to play in the pool. Another day closer to first day of school!!!

Today is Katie's 8 week birthday! The days just fly by!

Getting ready for summer break to be over!

all good things must come to an end. School will be starting in a few short days for the (older) girls and next week for the boys. Not quite sure what I'll do with all the free time I'll have on my hands once the house is quiet from 8am-3pm. Okay..actually, it won't be soo quiet since Mary has found that screeching is cool! Good thing that Miss Katie can sleep right through all the noise! We are still waiting to see if Lucy is with pups! Charlie was caught resting his little head on Lucy's belly...do you think that he's a proud soon to be daddy??? As usual...another picture of Katie sleeping! Isn't she cute??

It's a KSTATE Day!

Willie the Wildcat with Andrew and Matthew at the K-STATE practice here in town!
Jimmy the Wildcat (fan)!

Some of the boys practicing.

#4...he had some "GUNS"! Real nice guy!

Grandma with her grandbabies.

swim time fun!

Daddy and Mary have a little "face time" under the water! She actually enjoys it! Katie was chillin' in her stroller while the kids played. Of course Mary was chheezzin' for the camera!

Andrew really likes the water. If we could stay at the pool all day, he'd be happy!

Matthew has finally learned that he won't die if he swims in the big pool, thanks to Jim so now we can often find him jumping in the deep end and swimming to the side of the pool. He is still a little nervous that he can't make it, but we all know that he can!

The kids enjoyed McD after the morning in the pool. Little miss Mary ate an entire DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER! She wouldn't share it with her Mama either!

Big girl, little girl

Mary really enjoyed her Ravioli! She wanted to sit at the big girl table with her brothers and enjoy lunch with them! I'm glad that the mess wasn't too difficult to clean up. Some more pictures of the two sisters together. Mary really wanted to be in all the pictures!

7 weeks...

...playing with the dogs this morning on Katie's 7 week birthday. I think Lucy has a few pounds on her! Katie is smiling more every day! Another little girl that can melt your heart with that toothless grin!
