First day of school

I was surprisingly sad to see Carson start school today, I really did tear up:

This is my little boy at mother's day out when he was 3:

I am still looking for his 4 year old pics, but here is 5 year old pics last year in 1/2 day:

NOW, my big 6 year old school age kid!

One day those straps will fit him!

He was ready:

oh, so sweet:

He found his name tag

We were not the only one's in there :) giving Carson a high 5 before leaving:(

I told Kit that I missed Carson already, and that we should have more kids, I think he is ready for maybe something like a dog instead:) I signed Kindle up for gymnastics so she stays busy and not missing bub!!!

Carson starts Kindergarten for real!

Carson will be at public school full day starting on Monday! A friend and I were talking about it, and we said how it feels like there is no going back! Once they start school, they are now on their way to growing up, and I know it goes by so fast! I am more nervous about it than Carson is-he is TOTALLY ready and excited! We had parent orientation last night, and today we had meet the teacher. He has a young, sweet (yet stern;) teacher that I think will be a GREAT fit! I was such a dork, and took my camera (not even first day of school), but here is my young man in his first class by his cubby-

His sweet teacher:

The girls that I train soccer with (they have all gone to Pebble Creek), and are SUPER sweet and fun to train and be around-were at the school today with their sibblings and I got to take a pic with 2 of them! I have talked about how talented they are, so it's nice to put a face with a name-here are Haley and Lauren:

It is possible...

to fall asleep sitting up-almost out after a fun day at Hawaiian falls with Grandma and Aunt Shelly/Kids:)

Sunday smile

This picture makes me smile. Kindle was in my closet this morning with me when I was deciding what to wear for church, and she wanted to try on my shoes she had picked out for herself! My highest heals-Kit grabbed this pic with his phone while I was strapping her right heal. She tried to walk in them on her tippie-toes, and shortly later decided on my flats. So cute, trying to be like mama:)

Oh, that reminds me. My rico suave son AKA Carson,  saw this girl coming out of the store yesterday and said- 'hey mom, that girl is hot just like you!' I can't believe he said that!!! I don't even think he knows what he said! I hope not!!! I might need to have Kit have a talk with him! That in combo with Kindle saying 'wheeeeeeew, I see those boys on that motorcycle, I want to ride with them' (a few months back), Kit and I are in trouble! yikes.

fun busy

We have been so busy, but FUN busy! I know I will miss these days when school starts in 3 weeks! NNOOOOOO! The kids had their combined birthday party-I wanted low key and in time for GG from Florida to make it. GG made it, but low key it was not. I have had a pool party every year for 6 years now, and NEVER has it rained (much less in the last 3 months). Well, the 1 day it does rain, and the exact hours of the party, did it pour!!! well, we frantically moved the party inside and called all the parents to the bounce (I had 3 out of town group of drivers, and 30 kids). My awesome friends offered so much help-even took my kids in the morning so I could scramble (Thank you!!!), and wallla! a non-low key fun birthday! Carson is 6 (on the 14th of this month) and Kindle is 3.

On that same day we went to the lake house in Conroe and got stuck in traffic from people evacuating the chemical fire in bryan-what a strange day, but a wonderful day that the LORD had made:) Here are some fun pics:) And what a wonderful day it was!

I am overjoyed and thankful for my Godly husband, my healthy kids, a loving family and the gift of friendship.

Transformer cake!

Kindle's green puppy cake-remember potty training? A green puppy (after much searching) was her reward. It's a combo of her 2 favorite things green and dogs-notice the green bathing suit?

Happy, until everyone sang happy birthday-too many people, too much attention (she's my
quiet one)!

Carson's turn-you can still see Kindle crying in the background:)

He's been talking about his birthday for "years!"

Sweet great-grandma's!!! They both made it:)

Kit's (and my:) sweet family and cousins!

Later that day, off to the lake we went! Fun with family for 5 days:)

Thanks grandma and papa for a fun trip!
