We've got spirit how 'bout you

This last week was Spirit week at Sissy and Big Bro. school. The kids had a lot of fun(on most days) dressing up for school. Monday was tie day. I forgot to take pictures that day, but they both went to school wearing their dads ties.  Tuesday was Wacky hair day. Big bro loved his hair spiky and red. Wednesday they dressed up as nerds. Big bro. was excited about it until he saw what he looked like. He cried and cried over his hair so I fixed it to how he wanted it after I took the picture. Sissy was up for anything including wearing Lil' bro. vest to school. She is such a good sport. Thursday was retro day. I could think of a million ideas for Sissy but none for Big bro. Luckily we had found a picture on the Internet of a kid dressed for retro day and he loved it. I think he looks like the blond kid off of the original Karate Kid movie. Friday was school spirit day. I love how their school colors are red and black. It makes it very easy to find clothes to wear. It was a great week I can't wait to do it again next year (yes I am living vicariously through my children).

Number 5

I didn't really tell a whole lot of people that we were going to have baby #5. It wasn't a hard pregnancy I was just tired all of the time. Because of that I got behind in my blogging. At 20 weeks we went in and found out that is was going to be another boy. Sissy and I were a little dissappointed but we have got over it and realized that it will be fun to have another boy. I was induced Sept. 11th and had him @9:30pm. He weighed 7lbs 8oz. and was 21 inches long. He is a good sleeper and can sleep through almost all of the noises at home and the constant kisses from Lil' bro. The kids all love having him. Although we still can't get Sissy to change his diaper. We are so happy to have him in our home and love him so much.

 Bubba and Lil' bro are doing great. Bubba has grown in inches but not in weight so we are still having to see a doctor every 6 months. He is now 4 and ready to go to school next year. He is at the age where he doesn't want to play with the lil' bro very much because he is into his own thing.
Lil' bro is now the monster of the house. He loves to climb and wrestle. He also has his sissy wrapped around his little finger. She will do anything for him. He is almost 2 and is so independent.

New School Year

Big bro on the first day
Sissy started 2nd grade this year. I was so nervous for her. I can't believe she is already in the 2nd grade. This year she has more homework and the teacher actually holds her responsible for getting her work turned in. She is doing really good and still loves to go to school.
Big bro is in the 1st grade. He has a new teacher this year and I wasn't sure if I really wanted to keep him in the same school because of how they split the 1st graders. He loves it though and has made some new friends.

My Oh My

Okay its been a while since I've added anything here. So I'll just do a quick catch up.

  • My camera broke (therefore we missed out on a lot of picture taking)
  • Sissy and Big bro. finished the school year
  • Big bro.  played t-ball
  • Bubba and lil' bro started going to the pre-school library time
  • Sissy and Big bro participated in activities from the city
This summer we decided not to go anywhere and just stayed home. It was nice not to have to pack or worry about going anywhere. The kids are now back in school and I'm back to just having the little ones at school.
