Austin Update!

Austin had his five year check up on July 12, 2010. The doctor said he is doing great and is a healthy boy. Austin is in the 90th percentile for height, and the 95th percentile for weight. He also has 20/30 vision in both his right and left eye. While we were on vacation in Galveston, Tx, Austin lost his first tooth! (July 15, 2010) He was super excited. Here are pictures from July 15th. The first one is of him in the morning before we went swimming, then photos of him about 7 hours later after he lost his tooth. He loves showimg off his smile now!!!





I just lost my first tooth! :)

Chuck E. Cheese Fun!

The kids and I had a blast at Chuck E. Cheese. They ate a bunch of pizza and then had a great time playing games. Each time they won tickets they were so excited. I really enjoyed taking them and having FUN!!!

She loves horses!!!

Austin's 5th birthday party

Austin had his 5Th birthday party this past weekend. It's so hard to believe my little boy is five years old and will start school in the fall. Where has the time gone!?! He celebrated his birthday at Pump it Up with family and friends. Thanks to everyone who was able to come out and celebrate with us! Austin had such a great birthday and got so many new cool toys.

A fun Day :)

We had a GREAT day with Kennedy and Grandmother. It started off by playing games at Gattitown and having a big lunch. The kids were all so well behaved and they had so much fun. Then we went to Aunt Rachael and Uncle Gabe's house and the kids got to swim and play in the pool. (Of course they loved it). Thanks for everything Grandmother! Kayla and Austin really enjoyed getting to see their cousin Kennedy.

Austin and Kennedy racing.

Now they are shooting guns..POW!

The Latest...

This past weekend Travis and I took the kids to a park for lunch in Waxahachie. Travis used to go with Grandpa, when he was a little boy. The weather was beautiful. After we ate lunch, we went on a short walk down a nature trail. We didn't do it long, because a guy warned us about snakes! Kayla and Austin sure kept an eye out for those snakes. I took the kids bowling for the first time and they had a blast. We look forward to doing that a lot more this summer. They are in a free summer bowling program. Every day this summer they get to bowl 2 games for free. AWESOME!


Travis & the kids.

Love it! Our big boy Austin getting ready to bowl.

Kayla bowling. She carried the ball and put it on this silver thing, and then she would push it down the ramp. Fun! Look at her cute little bowling shoes.

Strong little Kayla! Look at that determined face. This photo makes me laugh.
