Soccer Time

Well.....we have started soccer and sallie is super excited! We thought we would try it out and they just happen to have an opening on a team that also needed a coach, so Rich is thrilled! He really does like it and has fun with the girl! The "Invaders" are a team I 6 girls. Yesterday was their first practice and it was in the low 30's, yikes. They practiced for about 40 minutes and then it was one for hot chocolate and it was the highlight of the day for sal!

fun with my girls

gosh we are having fun together!! sal is really starting to like her baby sister....has always loved her, just didn't really like her right at first! here are some pictures of us hanging out, playing games, and eating bottles in vivie's first three months!

love her smile

Vivie is such a happy baby, when he isn't mad 😀. But this girl can sure get mad (I'm thinking she has her
daddy's temper) I wanted to document some of these first smiles.....love her to pieces!

Happy Birthday Buddy

I honestly can't believe our little boy would be two years old! It seems like just yesterday we were loving in him telling him we would see him later. Rich and I spent some time just imagining what he would be doing right now....bugging the heck out of his sisters, making a mess in the kitchen cabinets, running around outside. He made such an impact on our lives and I like to make it a "big deal" on his birthday just as I do my other kiddos. Maybe this my way of just being a mom and not wanting to forget him. We got blue balloons and let them go, we bought a cake, laid five white flowers on his marker, and talked about him all day. Sallie was so much fun making it a day about baby brother, she screamed as the balloons floated away "make sure you go to baby brother"!!! We love you Richie V!

Happy 3 months Vivie

Gosh, I can't believe this sweet, lively, fun, smiley, but don't make me mad because I will scream at the top of my lungs and not stop for a very long time, baby girl was three months old on the 19th!

We love her to pieces! Even though Sallie gets so excited she I pretty much pulls her arms out of socket and shoves her pacifier down her throat.....but we do love her lots!

Gymbacks

We had a girls night out Friday night. Sallie, her friend Reese, and myself went to dinner at Sonic (woohoo) and then went to the gymbacks meet! They really are so much fun.....I mean what girl wouldn't like gymnastics. Cheerleaders, mascots, loud music and cotton candy!

I love it when sal takes pictures with my phone and I find them later....she took the one of the gym! We also got to catch up with Kennedy and Tiffany, what a fun night!

Rich and Vivie hung out at home and of course she slept the entire time for him! :-)

Walton Arts Center

I can't believe this, but I have not been to a show at the Walton Arts Center here in Fayetteville....until now.  Sallie and myself went with our friends to see Mary Poppins.  It was absolutely amazing.  From the singing to the dancing, to the special affects.  We were so impressed!  And even though it wasn't over until 10pm, we stayed for the entire show.
