Firsts and then some!

We've had quite the exciting times going on in our home- that being one of them. We are first time homeowners! Hip-hip hooray! Dad is more than in love with this house and says he never wants to move because he doesn't want to leave this house! Maybe we will be in Mississippi forever now!

From the back

We were so lucky to not only have Grandma S and G.G. come to help move and watch kids, but two cousins joined in the fun also and were such a great help in so many ways. We tried to teach them the summer fun of watermelon seed spitting contests!

A cute one of Miss M just for cuteness sake

What we did on day 2 and 3 of all the rain we got during Tropical Storm Lee last week.

Little Miss M has now developed a belief that she can do anything a 2 and 4 year old can do, which can be a little scary for mom and dad, and also lots of fun for the whole family!

Mr. B has become a 'big boy' in so many ways. Since we have been in our new place he has sent his binky to the BinkyMan- finally!, and has also is found running around in undies- that's right! Down to just one kid in diapers!

Miss C started a preschool that she loves. We did a little photo shoot right before school her first day, and as you can see, she was not too excited to share the moment of glory. She loves to have her picture taken and totally posses herself! Watch out world!

As previously mentioned, this baby knows no limits for herself. The older kids have turned our couch (originally a $100 purchase at a consignment store 5+ years ago) into a trampoline, gymnastic mat, restaurant, castle, you name it, and baby M wants to do it all to of course. She finds no greater joy than finding her way up there while Mom has turned around for a moment, and then bouncing with great delight when Mom turns around! How did we get such cute kids...

...that happen to make the exact same scrunchy silly smily faces?!?

I thought this was too funny not to share! Really! You are 4! FOUR- where do you get the diva, saultry pose from? You only watch PBS kids and the only magazine you see is Highlights! Vogue, strike your pose gal!

To prove we still do have a Dad, here is a recent photo from the BYU- Ol' Miss game J went to a few weeks back. This is the season he loves best...Football Season! Lucky guy was able to go and meet up with an old roommate and had a great day! Go Cougars!
