UPDATES!!

Sorry it has been forever...again!! But here goes.

Updates on Raegan: She got a cute little hair cut for summer, 7 inches off. She said she just could not do Locks of love again. She couldn't take the hair on her anymore. I'll add pics later!
*She had one of her bottom perm. teeth knocked loose, chipped and cracked in half. A ER trip to the Dentist!! and she was just able to eat an apple. NOT now!!
* she had a mild concussion this week, On Monday. She shut a door and it flung back open and she ran into it. It gave her a huge goose egg and a partial black eye!!

SYDNEY: Not much to report, no major injuries. Same ol' stubbornness and lack of cooperation!
We still love her very much. When she wants to be sweet she is very sweet!
* she will be moving on to First grade. I hope she matures a little more this summer or she will have a rude awakening come August. I just hope she doesn't get in there and then the teacher decides she isn't ready for 1st grade.
She could go either way, her birthday is in July and will only be 6 this year.
She is enjoying summer vacation and is enjoying Raegan being home all day! And she is already 20 shades darker than the rest of us!!

ASHTON: TWO MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS TO REPORT FOR THE BOYS
* Ashton is only 4 1/2. I am really starting to "get" just how different boys are from girls. Three of my friends (before I had boys) all had boys! It was hard for me to understand some of the things that they would do, because those things would not even cross Raegan's mind!! One of them use to say "just wait!!"
So back to my point. ...there is this little boy who rides his bike all over the neighborhood. It just drives Ashton crazy to see him and know that he can't do it!!
So he asked us to take off his training wheels on his bike. (which fyi I got at a garage sale for $10 after his big wheel disappeared)
He practiced for days. Then last night he got on his bike, I thought to myself "what is he doing, there are no training wheels" He asked if he could ride in the street. I agreed with caution.
Of of a sudden HE TAKES OFF!! ON TWO WHEELS!!! I was sooooooo excited!! It was amazing. I have a cute little video that I will add later.... At one point he fell and said "I wont give up!!" So cute.
Ashton has had this kind of attitude since birth!! He has always been determined to do anything!! IF he sees it he will find a way to get it or make it happen!! There is no changing his mind, EVER!!

*NATHAN: Well, well well, We all know that Naty boy is at the Im almost three so I am going to be the biggest brat in the world!! (add his evil laugh!!) He can get into something so quickly it amazes me. I can walk out of the kitchen and for two seconds and he has dumped something out or added something to what I'm cooking!!
His thing lately has been squeezing out shampoo or lotion, of course those things are mine or the girls'!! This behavior will soon pass!! He also likes to call all of us "doink" (?????)
Now for the second accomplishment: Yesterday he peed and then went p**p at different times! We were sooo proud of him. He was excited to get a few MM's! But today is a different story. He peed(sp?) and I put underwear on him and he went outside.....you know the rest. dad called on me to clean it up!!
Over all he is happy all of the time. He is Tigger!! Bouncy Bouncy fun fun fun fun fun!!!!

They all with the exception of Nathan attended VBS! They all had a great time and loved it!!

There are no real important updates for me. The only thing I could say is.... I had planned on doing the 1/2 Kansas City marathon in Oct. along with Tara and a few other friends. I have not committed to it yet. I did start running this week and did better than I thought. (4 miles since Wed. I plan on doing 2 more today) So give me a few more weeks and then maybe I will make a commitment!!

14 days til Family VACATION!!!
