My boys and teeth

We have been waiting and waiting for these little teeth to pop through.

He would not sit still for me to get a very good picture, whenever he opened his mouth wide enough, he would bounce up and down so fast, I couldn’t take a picture fast enough! We think these 2 pearly whites make him look quite cute.

The day that Cooper cut his first tooth, Carson was trying to take these trios apart with his teeth….

and ended up like this. He came running out to me saying “My tooth is loose!”

He was a little bothered by the blood, but excited at the cash left by the tooth fairy.

Coopers favorite toy

I used to have this little basket of cute wicker balls.

He makes a bee line, when he sees I have cleaned them up.

We are down to about half of them, because after he plays with them for a while this is what they look like. A little before vs. after shot.

First Day of School

A week ago, we had our first day of school. These girlies were pretty excited about heading back to school. I think they get a little sick of hanging out with me over the long summer.

Paige let me get a cute picture of her in her desk. Morgan was a little nervous about going to her class, but a little embarrassed that I would need to walk her to class. So, we certainly did not try to get a picture.

This little boy was REALLY sad when I took his sisters to school, and told him he would have to wait a few hours before it was his turn. He asked me every 30 minutes if it was time for him to go.

He insisted on wearing his new Boise State shirt, that we HAD to buy so that he could match his dad. As we were driving to school, he looked a little nervous, so I asked him if he was OK. He said “I a yittle bit nervous.”

So cute.

I hope he says yittle for a while still, we don’t even try to fix it when he says it wrong.

After the first day!

I told them to stick up the numbers of fingers, so we would know what grade they were in. We tried to get Carson to make a K….I guess backwords works.

Paige’s Baptism

Paige had been waiting and waiting to turn 8 and get baptized. She is one of the last in her primary class, so she was really excited. We had a great day with this sweet little girl. Thanks to all our family who were able to come spend this day with us.

We really struggle to get Carson to sit still for pictures. This one cracks me up!! A big tractor was driving down the road, and we kept asking him to look at the camera, but you can see his eyes are focused on something a little more interesting.

Morgan’s Birthday Party

It is birthday time at our house, and this time it is Morgan’s turn. We love having her birthday in the summer, because it is so easy to do a swimming party. Only this year, her only request for her party was that it was not a swimming party! We had a little family party on her birthday with the Grandma’s and Grandpa’s, and then the next day she had a movie party with some friends.

We always the start the day with some pancakes with a candle.

We had a crazy loud night, but Morgan had a great time getting together with her friends! Happy #11 Miss Morgan!!

Growing way too fast…

This little boy will be 8 months old this week. How does that happen? All of a sudden he is sitting, not fitting into his car seat, and becoming mobile.

He also has grown in some very unruly hair. The back of it sticks up and will not lay down for anything. His dad thinks he needs a trim, but I can’t part with that sweet baby hair yet.

Inch worm

Cooper has decided to try army crawling. (Sorry about the terrible noise in the background, we were having a movie birthday party in the basement!)
