4th of July with Freemans

Awwww...Jackson is ok on this blanket because his Beba made it...just so you know. :D

I mean could they be any cuter?!

What a crowd...

:)

We missed some friends this year but here is a shot of the kids at fireworks. We've managed to do this every year (I believe) since Derek was a baby...I think.

Last Day of Daycare

Oh my goodness...(excuse the delay)...
This was Sidney Kate's last day of daycare. Embree Claire and I would go and pick her up most every day. There would be a little treat in "baby sistah's" carrier for SKV.

SKV and Kaleb...they started daycare on the same day about 3 years ago...wish I had a picture of that day!! :(
No worries...they moved on together!

SKV had many awesome teachers during her time in daycare, her last one was Kimmie.

The kids LOVED seeing ECV when she came to pick up her sister-so it was natural that we have a group shot. Such wonderful pals!

What's Under There?

We'll never see Sidney Kate's dress again...

...well, maybe when Embree Claire wears it.

Chief Entertainer

If you ask Embree Claire, Sidney Kate is the Chief Entertainer of the bunch. She loves seeing her big sister sing, dance and flat out be silly!

Sidney Kate loves her just the same...always running up to her when she wakes up (see below) and when she gets home from daycare.

Big ol eyes!

Tummy Time

Embree Claire doesn't mind tummy time at all...she will coo and chat it up for awhile before getting upset.

Check out Buster in the background-too funny.

Grandma's Girls

We took a little trip to see Grandpa Marion...although he's not in any of these pictures! (Doh!)

Gots a lot to say these days...

But we mustn't forget Big Sis!

Gran Mary's Girls

Gran Mary got the girls cute outfits with their initials. Embree Claire looks crazy long in this picture!
Please note her expressive face..."Help!"

Sidney Kate LOVES to hold her, even if only for a little bit.

SKV is learning that ECV can't control her hands...or what she grabs, scratches or swats at. :D

She got over the hurt quickly. Poor ECV is going to grow up with SKV in her face...talking like a little old lady-as my mom says.

Video Catch Up Part II

So many videos and pictures...ahhh!  Need more time...
First up is Sidney Kate and her snazzy dancing routine.  This child cracks me up.

Please don't be jealous of her mad skills...you too can take her class.  It is offered in every car ride-come on!  (Please note she reminds of us Cohen's party...lol)

Houston we have A THUMB!

Are you listening?  Because I have a lot to say!

Still talking...and who wouldn't with SKV for a cheerleader?

Breaking the News to ECV

So Monday I return to work...I took this picture yesterday.  

See her happy face...

that's because she doesn't know her world is going to totally change next week...(sigh)

So today I thought I should have a girl to girl talk with her.  Below is her response.  

Notice how she totally ignores me at the first...looking away from me like I'm not there...then she tells me what she really thinks.  (sigh) This stinks.
But she sure is cute. 

I can't wait...

To blog about this!! I'm behind so much but I promise it'll be a good one.

Playing with the Mosers

A bit ago we scheduled a playdate with the Mosers and Inmans. Grayson had the pool out and ready to go when we arrived. Brett and Sammie were hanging poolside...ready for a wild night of fun!

Sidney Kate wondering why Uncle Josh and Jason were in the truck. Brett showing SKV his mad jumping skills-the boy has always been a dare devil. :)

Cute kids...but wait...

They were just this old-like yesterday! Seriously-where does time go?! Grayson and I don't know...2 kids later (each) we've lost all track of time. :)

Bear Rug Round Up...behind!

Little behind...I took Embree Claire's 3rd month bear rug picture yesterday, but haven't put it on the computer yet. So here is her 1st month and 2nd month shots. Check out her homecoming shot here.
Time is flying! My maternity leaves ends August 1...((sigh)).
Month 1

Month 2

Month 3...coming soon. :)
