Chipped tooth

We had our 1st chipped tooth in our house (not counting Larry a week before our wedding!)

Ashley and Hailey were chasing each other and sure enough it ended in a crash! But this crash was into the widow sill and a whole lot of tears. Sure enough - Hailey chipped her front tooth! The good thing is that it wasn't big and didn't do much damage. She has a sharp edge but it doesn't hurt. So we will have a post next week about our trip to the dentist!

Race For The Cure - 2009

My Aunt Shari had a great idea for us to do the Race for the Cure in Colorado Springs this year - and I am so glad she did!! It was great fun!

Shari, Brittany, and Baby Peyton all came down to the house the night before. We had a big dinner and they stayed the night. Ashley and I got up with them super early to head out. It was a pretty foggy day which worked out really good for us. The race was at Garden of the Gods which is so amazing anyway - but when you are there for a good cause it really is more amazing!

Ashley was such a trooper - it was early for her but she did great. I pushed her in the stroller and she sat back and enjoyed the ride!

Brittany was fun - she is a good morning person!

Can't wait to do this again next year!

Ashley's 1st Field Trip

Ashley had a field trip with her preschool class - to the Zoo!! It was great fun - Larry took the day off too so the whole family was able to go. I love going to the zoo. It was a perfect day for the weather and Ashley hung out with a buddy from school the whole time - too cute!

This is Hailey trying to smile right before the ride started - then she wanted off!

Big Blue!!

I would like to introduce to you the newest member of our family:

Can I say I LOVE MY TAHOE!!!!

Officially a Toddler!

It is official!!

We switched Hailey from a crib into her Toddler Bed - so of course her age has nothing to do with it - it's all about the bed!

*She has also figured out that she can climb into our bed for the night.....

1st Camping Trip

For the past 4 years Larry has been wanting to go camping and I always have some great excuse - "the kids are too small" "what about middle of the night bottles" "pretending I didn't hear him". Finally our friends Mike and Melissa said let's go! They have 2 little girls as well so I finally decided to suck it up and make it happen.

The girls had so much fun playing together! We had a nice spot with a little stream so of course there was a lot of dirt to be had! The best part of course was the smores - and oh yes they loved the smores!

It was really pretty..

Hailey REALLY enjoyed the smores!

*Catching Up*

I have been a terrible blogger this summer/fall - so I am now officially re-committing myself to become a better blogger!! Obviously I have a lot to catch up on so the next couple posts are me pretending I was on time with what was going on with the kids!
