9 Months

Hynlee just turned 9 months this past week. I know I can't believe it either! She is growing and changing every day. She is still the sweetest little thing but her personality is starting show. She has started screaming and pitching a fit if she doesn't get what she wants WHEN she wants it. Can we say another little Gracie!! She trys to clap her hands but hasn't mastered that just yet but she does have waving Bye-Bye down pat now. It's the cutest thing! She is still into everything, pulling everything off the shelves during school and she loves to crawl to the tv armoire and pull all the movies out or pull the baskets off Derick's desk. You can always tell just where she's been or where she is...just follow the mess. It will lead you straight to her!(Sometimes to Grace and Callee too!) The other day she let go and was just standing there for a second or two! She is finally becoming more of a Daddy's girl. He rocks her to bed at night more than I do now. She ate her very first chocolate chip cookie today. I tried to take her picture but couldn't find my camera! So I took it with Derick's(cheap) work camera so it's not so good. Just wish you could have seen her. She had chocolate everywhere!!

Ok so I'm a little behind on this. I forgot to post Gracie's picture when she lost her first tooth. Way back on September 9th I pulled her first tooth. One night at dinner she said she thought her tooth was loose, but I thought maybe a tooth ache or something. I never thought she would lose one this early. But sure enough it was and in just a few days it was ready to pull! She's still just as beautiful with one missing! And Hynlee has got both of her top teeth this week. So needless to say she hasn't felt too good. She can't sleep and just feels yucky! Hopefully the worst is behind us for a while!!

My sweetie is 8 months old today! It's seems like the days are going by like minutes and she is growing and changing over night! She learning something new all the time. She can now say ma-ma and da-da and I promise she said bye-bye the other day! She waves bye-bye and pulls up on the side of her bed. She crawled for the first time Thursday night. And she even gets a bath in the big tub now..sometimes even with Grace and Callee just for fun! But my favorite thing of all is when she smile so big and scrunches up her nose. She looks just like Callee when she does!

Da-Da

Hynlee said her first word today! It was Da-Da of course, both Gracie and Callee said it first too! It's the cutest thing in the world! She said it a couple of times all through out the day. But Derick hasn't got to hear her yet..I don't think he really believes me just yet. But Gracie and Callee are my witnesses!

Ok so I'm a little behind on this blog! There has been so much going on at our house lately I haven't had the time to even think straight much less update this. So where do we begin.. Mom took some pictures of us this past week and some of them came out really good. The one day I sat down to put them on here and pick the ones I wanted to post and had ever thing ready I hit the wrong button and "x"ed out of everything and I was too tired to re-do it. And then Wednesday Grace lost her first tooth. She looks so funny! But it's kinda sad she is growing up way to fast! And then on Saturday Grace and Callee had there first soccer game. They were both doing so good until I screamed out at Callee and told her that I loved her. And then she started crying. From then on she wouldn't even go out on the field. She says she is not going back, and I'm not going to make her but I hope she changes her mind on her on. Then we had a family reunion with a hay ride and all the works! Then today we had another family reunion. This one had no games, no hayride, and no trampeline so the girls didn't like it so much. Then tonight we took the girls to the park to put a end to our fun- filled family weekend!

7 Months

Yesterday our baby girl turned 7 months old. I know I say this every month but I can't believe we are already here! She is growing like crazy. She is still a little skinny minnie but she is so long! She sits up all my herself and loves to play in the floor. She still only has two teeth.. but trust me she likes to bite! She has just started babbling more. I guess you could say we went to the Pioneer days to celebrate her 7 months and to spend a little time with Kylie and Amanda. The girls had fun walking around a riding rides with each other. I love spending time with my little family just doing the simple things in life!

First Field Trip

We are learning about community helpers in our social studies class so today we visited the fire station. Brad our cousin, or soon to be cousin is a fireman in Cartersville. He was nice enough to show the girls around the station. They have known him for years and I guess the uniform scared them, cause they were both so shy. Even Gracie which was so strange! We invited little Reesie to go with us on our visit. She liked sitting in the fire truck more than Gracie or Callee. We had fun and can't wait to go on more little trips!

Still loving my coupons!

Just had to show what I got for 50.00 today! I went to Publix and Kroger and between the two stores it should have been $128.00 plus tax and I only paid $50.00! I'm so proud of myself...I know it sounds crazy but coupons are so addictive!

Lake Winnie

Saturday we went to Lake Winnie with the both sets of the family. Grace and Callee had a ball. It had been a few years..Callee's 2nd birthday since we had been so they had a lot more fun this year riding everything. It's so much fun now since they want to ride the bigger rides with me and Derick. They aren't little babies anymore. Here is a few of the pictures but I'm sure moms pictures are alot better so I'll post them when she gives me a cd.

Soccer Time Again

It's that time again, soccer season! Gracie played last year and Callee wanted to but she wasn't old enough yet, but this is the first time they have got to play anything together. We were able to get them on the same team. They had their first practice last night. Callee is doing really good if she can just learn how to keep her hands out of her mouth. They both look so cute out there running around on the field. But to look at them you would never know they are sisters. Grace is out there playing with all pink on her shin guards, her cleats, everything. And then here comes Callee bug and of course she had to have all black. Her shorts, her cleats, shin guards. But that's the fun of having more than one kid. It's amazing at how they have the same parents, same up bringing and they are two totally different little girls! My camera is still broke so I couldn't get close ups....We went out to eat after practice and that's little Hynlee holding her own sippy! I didn't even know she could until she just reached up and took a hold of it and started drinking! My baby isn't staying a baby long:(

First Day

Today we started our homeschooling! It went great! Grace and Callee were both really happy this morning and got up and 6 o'clock so they could get dressed! Both sets of their grandparents came by to see them before we got started. They were bouncing off the walls with all that attention but when everyone left they did wonderful. I was really nervous about how they would sit and listen but I had no problem at all! We have already completed everything the curriculum had laid out for us today plus more! Hynlee did really good too! She got up to early so she took two mini naps during that time and when she was awake she just played on a quilt in the floor with some toys like a big girl!......Just had to post the picture of Hynlee's new hairbow I just got it in the mail today! Derick is so gonna hate this one!

School in the morning!

Ok so tomorrow is the big day! School starts in the morning! I think we are ready but I am still a little nervous. Grace is ready but Callee said she wasn't excited..she just wants to spend the night with her buddy aka Nanny Holley! Our classroom still needs a little work but we are going to add things to it as we go. The girls went to bed early so they will be up bright and early to get started. I just hope little Hynlee will let us get some work done!

Hynlee's doctor appointment

Today we went for Hynlee's doctor appointment for her little problem! It's a girl problem! She had to go see a pediatric gynecologist. Can you believe it she is six months and has already went to the gynecologist? Well we were expecting the worse we thought for sure they were going to have to do surgery or something but they are changing her medicine again and hopefully this is going to work. We aren't out of the woods yet surgery may still have to happen if the medicines don't work. But we are praying for the best!
