Bossy Boy

Last night Brad was reading to Carter, he was in his bed & Brad I I were both sitting on the floor.
Well, Carter wants the same book read to him every.single.night.over.and.over.
Rainbow Rob, he chants again and again.
So we of course have said book memorized.
When Brad was reading he wasn't looking at the book, he was saying the words from memory, we were both looking at Carter being so sweet falling asleep, all of a sudden he opens his eyes, pushes Daddy's head around to the book and says,
"No Daddy, readin."
I couldn't stop laughing.
Bossy children.

I snapped this the other day, both boys were napping in my bed, I love how C is all cuddled up to B :)

School Boy

Braiden Boo had his 1st day of school on Tues the 15th!!
This little boy was so so ready for school.
It is all he has talked about lately. So, I was starting to think that maybe he didn't realize that Mommy didn't stay with him at school, because he does, like to be with me, ALL THE TIME!!
On the way to school we were going over the do's and do not's of a big school boy.
Like we don't scream at the top of our lungs, "ME GOTTA GO POOP, MAMMA ME GOTTA GO POOP RIGHT NOW."
We raise are hands and ask the teacher, "Please can I use the restroom."
Alexee & I were schoolin him on school, so I decided now was the time for me tothrow in there that Mommy leaves him at school & he stays there by himself.
He shrugs & says "Yeah, me know Mom."
Truthfully I was waiting for Operation Melt Down, it was just too easy, I'm used to Alexee clinging to my leg SCREAMING, CRYING to the point of vomiting when I dropped her off at preschool, so it just didn't seem right.
I should have known.
Braiden is my Mr Too Cool guy, & that's just how he was.
He hung his backpack, picked a chair, kissed us goodbye, & kicked back playing with the blocks all ready for school.
That is exactly what they said when I picked him up, he did so good, like he's been going to school forever & he just kicked back & fit right in acting all "Cash".
Is that another word for cool??
That's my boy Mr. Cool Cash

My Little Girl....

I posted this on my photography blog, but I also want it here so when I make my book of my blog I have this cuteness in it!!
So, finally I took my little girl to do her 6 year photo shoot, I know I am just 2 months late.
Better late than never, right!!!
So, here is a little sneak peek of our fun evening!!
We laughed & danced & played & ran & sang & found sun flare & changed clothes & used props & had the best photo session EVER!!!!!
I love this little girl.
She decided she might want to be a photographer one day, so at the end of the day she took my pictures, she would tell me, "Mama, smile."
I'd smile.
Her~"No not like that."
Me~ Change smile.
Her~"Yeah, like that."
Her~"Now, tilt your head."
Me~So, I'd tilt.
Her~"No, not like that."
Me~Tilt different.
Her~"Ok that's better."
Her~Snap, snap, snap.
So, to the most important part, your sneak peek at my beautiful 6 year old!!

She is so photogenic, she DID NOT get that from me!!!
There will be a lot more to come, how will I ever choose??????

Rearin & Ready For Preschool

Last week was Braiden's open house for Preschool.
He was soooo excited, there was a little bit of confusion as he thought I was leaving & it was his 1st day of school.
He was totally fine with me leaving him.
Made me a little sad.
We got to see his class & meet his teacher & he was just smiling from ear to ear.
He was supposed to start school yesterday, but due to a nasty ear infection he wasn't able to go, so he 1st day of school will be on Tuesday.
So stay tuned for Braiden's 1st Day of Preschool next week.
Wish me luck, there may be more tears shed.

Happy Day!!

Just wanted to wish the greatest Mom ever & very very Happy Happy Birthday!!
Braiden wants all of you to know his Grandma is 37 today :)
You are the best Mom & Grammie we could ask for & we hope you have a Great day!!
I still don't know how you raised 6 of us, I never realized all you sacrificed till I became a Mom myself, you always made it look so easy, boy is IT NOT!!!

Happy Day Mom!

Mom, the 3 sissies & me on our San Diego Vacation last month, will post more about that later!!!
