Straighten up

October 23, 2019

Big day around here last week – Maxwell got braces! He’s had an expander for a few months and now he’s doing a round of braces on his top teeth to get everything aligned so his teeth that still need to come in will have some room. Maxwell was such a trooper for all of it and did great. These two got to tag along as well…

First Day!

August 29, 2019

Samantha is back to school! Her first day was on Monday and it was a great day! I had a pretty pink dress picked out for her to wear that day but, when I pulled it out of the closet she looked at me and said, “But Momma, purple makes me stay alive!” I mean…how can I argue with that?! Purple it was!

Purple dress, purple bow, purple shoes!

Meet the Teacher

August 27, 2019

On Thursday of last week Samantha got to go meet her teacher! She was looking cute as usual with some new sparkly shoes she talked me into at Target!

She’s excited to be in Mrs. Day’s class with lots of sweet little girls that I’m sure will become her BFFs. It was a little overwhelming up there so she was pretty quiet for most of it and gave me a little attitude when trying to get a picture…

but then I did get her to bust out a little smile.

Looking forward to a fun year in 4K!

Like Father Like Son Like Son

Just when the end was coming near for Spencer’s allergy shots, looks like we’ll still be up there every week or two for the next 3 to 5 years! Maxwell is following in Robert and Spencer’s footsteps with his need for allergy shots! He got his first round last week and did great…

Not sure if Samantha will end up needing them too but, for now, she sure does enjoy the suckers they give out!

First Day!

August 14, 2019

Back to school! The boys started yesterday and, despite a heat index of 108, everyone had a great day!

We had gone up on Monday to meet our teachers. I didn’t get a pic of Maxwell but he has Mrs. Dyess in 3rd grade. Spencer has Mrs. Cox in 1st grade…

Tuesday morning came bright and early and my crew was ready for the day…with some really good hair! Β πŸ™‚

Nothing like a good case of bedhead to start the school year off right.

Hoping it’s a great year for all!
