Aidan's Big Day!!

Aidan started Preschool on Thursday, August 27th!! He was so excited to be a big boy like his brothers Hunter and Reilly.


"Look Mom!! They have TOYS in here, I LOVE school!!"

Aidan playing with some of his classmates...

Waiting for school to start on the first day...it was super-hot, at about 101 degrees.....

Photos for Daddy in Afghanistan....

How does a busy mommy of 5 take pictures of herself and the kids for 'Daddy' while he's far away in Afghanistan??? Well, with the computer cam, of course.... ;-) Here's what we came up with for our first try:

"Mommy, Liam got into your purse!!"

Well, a picture is worth a thousand words :-)
I was in the bathroom less that 2 MINUTES...I swear...and Liam managed to get into my purse and smear lipstick ALL OVER his face. He was so proud of himself as he said "Hi, Mommy!" Aimee nearly 'shot-into-orbit' when she saw Liam's face, immediately saying "Wee-amp, you are biggest trouble EVER!! " and "Eeewwww, don't touch me!!" HA! After a good long bath, all is back to normal--for now!

The Princess & her Tea Party...

On this sunny Friday afternoon, Princess Aimee held her first official "
Tea Party." The official guests were baby Liam, Bedtime Bear and Bella, her baby doll.
Refreshments included cheerios, raisins, and delicious 'Sunny Delight' tea. Also served, pretend Birthday cake and pizza! It was a fabulous event, as you can tell from the pictures and guest photos. :-)

Fun at the Park !!

We went to the park last night to play and get some of the 'wiggles' out...and it was little Liam's 1st time in the play area. He was really concerned at first, but got comfortable after a while. Everyone had fun jumping and climbing, and the weather was perfect!

Shhhhh! I Be a Princess !!

Girls are so different from boys...seriously! When my boyz get in trouble, they say "I didn't do it", or "Hunter/Reilly/Aidan made me do it!" When Aimee gets in trouble, she holds out a pink flower ring and says, "Shhhhh, I be a Princess!!" HA! Look out guys, she's gonna be a pistol when she's older :-0

All I Want for "SUMMER" is My Two Front Teeth!!

After a long, wiggly wait of over 4 months, Reilly finally lost his two front teeth. As Reilly tells it, *EVERYONE* in his class has already lost their front teeth...so he was overjoyed to loose not just one, but *BOTH* front teeth in a span of 5 days.
