The girls

Sweet sleep! wide awake
Maddy and Morgan
Mackenzie and Morgan
We love our new sister!
As you can see there is no picture of big brother Micah, he is having some anger issues with the new baby, he actually breaks out in hives when he sees her. He does call her More though which is a good start!

Happy 5th Birthday Mackenzie

Mackenzie turned 5 years old today. She opened some gifts this morning then we went to Toys R Us to look at toys. She chose to go to McDonald's for lunch and then afterward we went and picked out her scooter that she wanted for her present. Saturday we will go to Chuck E Cheese's to celebrate with some friends so more pictures will follow~ Her sister bought her Enchanted and we all watched it together

early b-day party

Since Mackenzie's birthday falls after school is out, we had a little party for her at school on Friday. We had pizza and cupcakes, and she now has her own pile of the Littlest Pet shop toys to play with. Mackenzie really likes Care Bears and I couldn't find party hats so I got these Care Bear masks instead~ I told the kids to growl like a bear which they totally got into.
Friday night was the kindergarten graduation and Mackenzie's teacher had asked if she could be apart of the graduation. She sang songs and quoted some things she has learned, she was the only K-4 student to participate.

aren't I pretty

I bought the girls a bunch of headbands at Target for a 1$. Micah really liked this one and wanted to wear it, something we will have to work on- no hairbows for boys!
A good place to watch cartoons? Not sure why he likes to sit under the girls fuseball table, but this is where he chose to sit.

33 week ultrasound

I will be 33 weeks on Sunday, and Morgan's due date is now the 22nd of June. We are hoping for an induction on the 16th. As you can see she is a big girl already~ 4 1/2 pounds! All looks good and she is head down ready to go. Check out my fat cheeks and lips!

School 2008-2009

So we have joined the ranks of the homeschool crowd. Our books came in and the girls were really excited. It will be a big change for both of them as they love school, but for now this is the best decision. We will be doing the Abeka DVD program, as I don't want to lose my sanity with four kids underfoot all day!

Big shoes to fill

Micah loves shoes and if you leave them out he will try to put them on.

Micah's new toy

He loves the playground so I finally got him a little slide. It's too hot to play outside so for now it's an indoor toy. Excuse the mess in the background! Whee!
A good spot to watch cartoons
it didn't take him long to figure out how to go up the slide

Let the games begin.....

Another season of soccer has begun. Madeline is on the Killer Bees this time, she is a very fast runner, and really is enjoying playing this year.
Mackenzie is on the Purple Pandas. The coach finally got smart this year and put Mackenzie and her friend Trista in at separate times. Mackenzie also loves to run, and is getting more aggressive. The 4's and 5's are the most fun to watch, most of them have a hard time with running and kicking the ball, but they are great entertainment.
Mackenzie is #3

Dolphin Watch

On Friday we went on a field trip to South Padre Island for a Dolphin Watch tour. We were able to take a boat ride for about an hour and we were really lucky to see quite a few dolphins. Mackenzie really loved the boat ride, and was very excited to eat her lunch on the boat.View from the back of the boat, the water was a little choppy at times, but thankfully it wasn't to warm out.
The only picture I could get of a dolphin
Loving being on the water
Some weird sea life the kids wanted to touch.

Field Trip

We also visited a hands on exhibit where they were able to hold all kinds of strange sea life.

Maddy and the starfish
Mackenzie and the sea cucumber- it looked really gross, but she wanted to hold everything.

Dare Devil

Micah really wanted to play fuse ball, and tried his hardest to get the ball out from the hole. He later fell off and hopefully learned his lesson.

Happy 9th Anniversary Ronnie!

T-R-O-U-B-L-E

Micah has been all boy lately, keeping me very busy. Yesterday he fell head first down the stairs (16 in all), he has a little carpet burn on his face. Today he got out a box of vanilla wafers and dumped the whole box out, which I then gave him a lesson in cleaning up after himself.
First you throw them away
then you vacuum them up
and after you throw your lunch on the floor you have to sweep it up! Mom can't wait for my nap time today!
