I am so upset right now and I can't believe this happened or even know how this happened! I some great pics and now I have nothing.... Arrgh! I did post some on Facebook maybe I can at least pull those few! I guess I have nothing to share for the cupcake party I threw Kate!

Party Party Party!

Well of course Kate had more then one party to celebrate her turning 4. Just like the boys she is spoiled when it comes to Birthday time! Her first party was at Mimi and Grandaddy's, as you will see in the pictures she is overloaded with gifts galore. She got so many things she wanted, she didn't even know what to play with first. Aunt Jill and Leon gave her Polly Pockets (Cent believe she is big enough to play with PP's already) Mimi and Grandaddy got her the Twinkle Toes she had been asking over and over for. She opened so many other things I can't list them all!

 Cheerleader Colton!


This mug that Kate got is very special.Mimi sent Aunt Jill flowers to her at school when she was turning 4. The flowers came in this very mug. Aunt Jill saved it and gave it to Kate. Love that so special!

Happy Birthday!


Today's her big day she is "4"!
This much talked about day has finally arrived!
Apparently lots of things transpire when you turn "4".
First and most importantly she should be taller when she gets out of bed,
also be able to write her whole name all by herself not just the "t",
her sippy cups go in the trash (that's my regulation on turning "4"),
acquire the ability to read books,
fix her own hair everyday and play with big girl toys!
Not all these things may happen at once but,
there's no way around it my baby girl is growing up!

"Happy Birthday! Kate, I Hope All Your Wishes Come True! I Love You! XOXOX, Mommy!"

Playing Catch Up!

Boy here I am behind again! With School and Preschool started, me taking this new job and Baseball season life has been out of control! Every Fall is the same busy, busy, busy, but I still love Fall all the same. I say ummm.... maybe around January things will slow down a bit!

So I am going to do a review of the past new things! Here we go!

Okay so I mentioned above baseball season Cayden and Clint are on the Royals seems like a good little team with lots of potential haven't won a game yet but getting close. Cayden is hitting very well and playing 2nd and short great! Clint pitched and caught he was also doing a wonderful job really stepped up this season (well was that is another story)! Don't have any pictures yet of their team but hope to soon. Colton is on Rockhounds a
double A team. He is not getting to play quite as much as normal, but still he is being challenged and loving it. He is hitting great and running like lightning!
Here is a few pics our friend Bob got at the last game of Colton in action!



Okay now about Clint and the past tense reference with him and baseball,, He broke his foot! Well technically cracked his 3rd toe bone a good distance down the side of it! He did it at school on the playground. So no more baseball for him this season! They decided against putting him in a cast, thank god, and gave him a walking shoe cast and crutches for the next 4-6weeks.

 

The boys also all got their progress reports all A's & B's for this house! Woot! Woot! Hope they keep it up!

As for Kate she is still loving Preschool, cooking and story sparks classes! She is really doing well with her letter sounds and I can't believe she is sneaking up on the age of 4! We have been planning and preparing for her cupcake tea party! Speaking of the party its also a combo baby shower welcoming for little Allie who made her appearance a little earlier then expected she came on Sept. 13th and she is a doll. I was lucky enough to visit her in the hospital and get a few pics and also fall in instant love with this cutie pie!

 

Oh and how could I forget College football season has also begun so far so good Alabama has been whipping butt and we have been really enjoying the family time together! Kate wants to be a cheerleader now and well I kinda told her in this outfit she looked like one... since I didn't have a cheer suit for her, she wore a t-shirt I redid and a slip! Yes,, I said a slip. So now guess what she wants to dress like this daily! Oh well at least she can pull it off.

Think I am caught up for now, need to start lugging my camera around with me more often, I have been on the lazy side of this lately!
Happy Fall Everyone!

1st Cooking Class

Kate had a great time at her cooking class. They got to taste new and different red foods (for red week). She also learned how to properly set a table with all the utensils. She made a large example page with the napkin, plasticware, plate and all glued to the sheet to help her as she sets a table. I think that is so neat! So she wore her cooking themed dress and I love it! Although I think she was still stuck in Rock n Roll mode from last week!

Caddo Lake Trip

Just getting a chance to share these pics from our last summer trip this year. Caddo Lake was amazing like living in a swamp, beautiful yet eerie! The kids caught so many fish we lost count when it got to be over 100 each! Can't wait to visit again!
