Red Bull Fighters Motor cross




We had a blast at the Red Bull motor cross event in Fort Worth last weekend. Plenty of pictures to prove it! We went and toured one of Andrew's suppliers before we went - Rahr Brewing in FW. Nothing like free beer! I cant wait for Sept - we are all going to the drag races with JJ & Mandy (Kenzie's parents). It will be good times.

Dad and Sister are off to Six Flags today. I just got home from work. :( I'm about to go get Bro and I think we are cooking out at Lyn's tonight.
Everyone is doing great. Brother is getting big fast. He is already rolling over to his stomach but we still haven't mastered the stomach to back. And I have to say... my kids are so darn cute!! Britt has been going to daycare this summer and booking her social calendar likes its no one's business! Crazy kids...

Well, Bro has done better than Dad's last post. I think we determined he might be allergic to carrots. But he sure does love bananas! It has gotten pretty good at eating off the spoon.

Sister had her 2nd grade graduation today. She received the Sunshine Award, honor roll, and a reading certificate. They all walked across the stage and received their awards. My camera didn't like the lighting in the cafeteria but I did manage to get some good pictures in the hall after.

We are all doing well. Britt is going to the IRL races this weekend with her dad. And next weekend she is staying the night the Cami and going to the water park. Jason and I are going to go to the Red Bull Fighters motor cross in FW that weekend. (Hope Grandma will watch Brother!) And then the weekend after that we are all going to Monahans to see Jason's grandparents. So it looks like we are going to be pretty busy the next few weeks going into summer. I am just looking forward to the pool opening. It is so dang hot!!!

Oh and did I mention that we have cheerleading registration in July for the Lewisville Football League? I think we are going to take her out of Excite! while she is doing the fall cheer with LFA. I don't think we can manage both at the same time. She is really looking forward to being on the squad. Kenzie and her are going to be doing it together.

That's all for now. Talk to you soon!

He's a Chip Off the Old Block

...which in this case is not a good thing. You see, last night Carrie introduced Aston to carrots and he was not very happy that they had met. He made some awful faces. Some of which I'm sure reminded Carrie and Brittney both of faces that I have made when occassionaly trying to eat a vegetable. Considering the grief that my brother and I gave our parents with vegetables growing up I think its kind of funny.
But, this just won't do. He needs to eat vegetables, just like I need to eat vegetables. So - we're going to keep giving them to him whether he likes it or not and I'm going to eat them too. I'll just have to approach it the same way I approached developing a taste for wine...just keep forcing it down and eventually you'll stop making faces! Lord help me.

FOOD!!!







Brother went to the Dr. today for his 4 month check up. He now weighs 14.2 pounds and is 25.5 inches long. The doctor has calculated (with her special formula) that Brother will be approximately 6 foot tall when he is an adult. She also said he looks great; growing good, moving good, etc. She did say that he is ready for food. We have been giving him oatmeal in his bottle for the last week or so but she frowned on that saying he could choke. So we now will be feeding him from a spoon that he is still learning to use. But I do have to say, he likes seefood! As soon as he has the spoon down she said we can move onto fruits and veggies.
And did I mention that Brother has a super hero name? Meet the Droolanator. He has a cape and all!
And I have added his for faux hawk picture too for your enjoyment.
I think that is about all we have going on.
Brittney is looking forward to church camp. She still has a balance due that we are working on. The garage sale came out pretty good. I think we made about $130 in 2.5 hours. Not to shabby.
Gotta go - Brother isn't feeling too hot after the 4 shots he got today so he is being a little fussy. I think Dad has had enough.

Bath time!




Brother took a bath in the real bath tub today. He is officially a big boy. He wasn't sure what to think about it. He usually covers the bathroom floor with water when he is in his infant tub but not today. There wasn't much kicking going on. He mainly looked at us in wonder. Britt wanted to get in with him but I told her not just yet.

Hello

Hello All. Not much going on with us but I thought I would post anyway. Brother is growing and Sister is getting herself in trouble. She is a little sassy. I wonder where she gets it from... We are all doing great. School, daycare and work are all about the same. I did look into housing and schools in Allen to see how it compared to Flower Mound in case we get moved at work and it actually surprised me. You can get A LOT more house for the money in Allen. And the schools seem to get better grades and the population is less. The taxes are a little higher though. Its definitely worth keeping in mind. Mandy (Kenzie) said we cant move. But I guess we will play it by ear and see where it takes us.
