We went bowling tonight with the church and I broke 100 both games!! That is a major accomplishment for me. I am not a good bowler and if I break 100 I am doing awesome!

Macy has been staying with my parents this weekend and she has learned to swim down and touch the bottom of the deep end of the pool. 11 feet!!! You go girl!

Noah is constantly finding things to tear apart/break. He managed to pull some sort of filter that I didn't even know existed off the bottom of our refrigerator today. Trouble maker.

Noah's 1st Haircut
Wednesday, June 22, 2011
Look at those beautiful curls!!! But apparently several people had thought he was a girl with all that pretty hair, so I told Jason we could finally cut it.
It was definitely getting a little crazy around the ears.
He was SUCH a big boy. He sat there the whole time and let her cut his hair. He never got upset at all.
He looks like such a little boy now with his hair short. No more baby : (
Everyone come and see how good I look!!!

Another One Jumps Ship
Tuesday, June 21, 2011
Macy lost another tooth today. This is #6 but she now has 4 completely missing. We keep teasing her she is going to have to start eating through a straw.
I was at work today when she lost the tooth and then her and Jason went frog gigging after dinner. When Jason tucked her in at about 11:30 she put her tooth out. But we both forgot about it. So when she woke up she came in our room so sad because the Tooth Fairy didn't take her tooth or leave any money. I sat there for a moment and came up with a brilliant story. I explained to her that the Tooth Fairy has a lot of teeth to get and she starts in one time zone then moves across the world. And because Macy stayed up so late the Tooth Fairy had already moved past our time zone. And the solution to this was for her to go to bed earlier the next night. She totally bought it!! And the Tooth Fairy didn't forget the second night!

Purple Hair Rocks!
Monday, June 20, 2011
Macy got the idea somewhere that she wanted purple streaks in her hair. She has been asking for awhile and I though hey what the heck, it's summer! And who doesn't love purple hair?! Noah insisted on being in the middle of things. After we got started Kenzie decided she needed a couple streaks too.
Here is the final product. It turned out SO cute! But most importantly, Macy loved it!
Shiloh Morning, Day 2
Saturday, June 18, 2011
After breakfast me and Jason went walking on the trails. It was so pretty. If it hadn't been 98 degrees at 9:45 in the morning we would have stayed out a lot longer. We did find the hammock in the shade under the trees. So relaxing!
Pretty flowers!

Shiloh Morning
Friday, June 17, 2011
This weekend we got to spend our first weekend alone since Noah has been born! It was so nice to just sit, relax, read, watch a little TV, and enjoy some silence. Our best friends Carrie and BJ watched all 3 kids for the weekend! I am pretty sure we owe them a kidney now or something. But it was worth it!

Live In The Now!
Thursday, June 16, 2011
We finally decided to step into 2011 and get rid out our monstrosity of a TV and get a flat screen. We had "plans" to take the top of our armoire off and just use the bottom as the stand. But when we took the top of we discovered there was no top to the bottom part, just a tiny piece of wood going from front to back. So we are keeping it classy and at the moment our fancy new TV is sitting on a piece of plywood.

Reading Time
Wednesday, June 15, 2011
I have been working with Macy everyday this summer to help her improve her reading skills and she is really starting to put it all together. She is so excited when she can sit down and read most of a book. I found her and Noah sitting together this afternoon and she was reading this book aloud to him. I don't think he was paying a whole lot of attention but it was still really sweet.

Noah is Officially Walking
Monday, June 13, 2011
He is for real for real walking. I think I have been in a little bit of denial. Maybe I have wanted to kick him in the shins a few times..... He is officially motoring all over the house on 2 legs now. He started learning last week at VBS because he had so many people playing with him and trying to get him to walk. I was perfectly happy to just let him keep crawling. But I guess it is time. He's getting to be such a big boy!
Oh, and this is his "I'm grumpy and need to go to bed" face!

My Walking Buddy

Ever since Noah was born he has LOVED to go on walks. It's so nice in the evening to walk around the neighborhood. It's so quiet and peaceful. I am glad I have a little walking buddy.

Sleepover!
Wednesday, June 8, 2011
The girls so badly wanted to invite some friends to VBS and their friend Karmen was able to go the last 2 nights. She spent the night with us Wednesday and the girls were soooo excited to have a sleepover. They were so good and went to sleep pretty easy. I put a movie on my computer and let them lay in their room and watch it till they went to sleep. They were all out by 10:45 and didn't make a peep. I think staying out late at VBS helped to wear them out. They even slept till 8:30. They look so cute!

This is how I found my child at daycare when I went to pick him up today. Excuse the grumpy face, he was in no mood for pictures. It is partially my fault because I forgot to bring extra clothing. But when I got there he had on this teeny tiny zip up vest (that I apparently had left there since last winter), a diaper on BACKWARDS and shoes. He could totally be one of the Village People. And the reason he had no extra clothes was because the last couple weeks he has been coming home in a different outfit because his diapers kept leaking. I was baffled as to how his diapers always leaked at daycare. The virtually never leak at home. I now see why. All of the soaker material is in the front and since they have been putting them on backwards, it's kind of like just having on regular underwear. So of course he is leaking. *sigh* But I did think he looked hilarious!

It's OFFICIALLY summer!
Saturday, June 4, 2011
Yay! It really feels like summer now that we have had our first swim at my parents house. Macy is showing off her moves on the diving board.
Noah LOVE LOVED the water. He was all over the place and wanting to jump off the side. He is a wild child.

Mackenzie can finally touch this year in the shallow end and had decided she wants to learn to swim. She did so good without her floaty!
And this is how Noah spends a good part of his life. With his finger up his nose. He isn't picking it, but he has discovered it is the absolute perfect size for a finger. It's a finger holder.
Baby Duckies!!

This was Macy's abstract art. I'm not completely sure what all the gibberish writing is but I know it made sense to her. I like the pretty fingernails and ring in this one!

I love summer. We have time to set around and be lazy and the girls can color and craft all they want. This was one Mackenzie made and I thought she was very creative with her use of stickers and then drawing things in to go with the stickers.

Yummy Chinese
Tuesday, May 31, 2011
I have wanted a real egg roll in the worst way for months. The stupid Chinese restaurant in Duncan sells "egg rolls" but they are spring rolls. They have no meat and are tiny. I am fine with spring rolls, but call them what they are, don't be a liar. They are not real egg rolls! Anyway, as you can tell this doesn't upset me at all. But there is a pretty good Chinese restaurant in Chickasha that has really good egg rolls so I had lunch there today. YUM!

GAG!

Macy has discover a new show on the Netflix called Swamp People. It's all about alligator hunting. Which is an odd thing for her to find interesting, but she does. Jason has been so excited she is into this sort of thing now and he had taking her frog hunting and fishing the last couple days. They managed to kill a poor defenseless little frog and so Jason made frog legs. Macy was so excited to try them but I just knew she would wimp out when the moment came. But I was oh so wrong. She chowed down and thought they were the best thing ever. *GAG* But I didn't say a word, I didn't want to ruin the moment for them...
