Ashley ...Soccer Monster.

Today we had soccer "testing" or something for Emily ages 4-5. Ashley has been signed up for soccer but was not asked to "test" today. Almost three year olds testing I guess would be a joke!! But Ashley knew that Emily had to test today. So Ashley got up this morning put her soccer shorts on and grabbed her new Orange soccer ball. She said she was ready. We kept telling her it was not her turn today but she would not hear it. So I let her go to practice ready to play with her ball. They never let her play and to make matters worst there was an Ashley there so everytime they called her name Ashley would get excited. To pause for a moment on Ashley she really is growing up, she speaks so well now and is really turning into a little girl. I had to go to bat with the YMCA about her being able to play since she is not quite three. This is going to be Ashley's life story since I took the Caster Oil 4 days later then I should have. That is right she is born 4 days after the cut off date. In her defense she should have been born like 10 -15 days after the cut off date. I took Caster Oil the day before my moms birthday Oct. 4 on purpose they could share the same birthday. It worked but if I would have known I would have done it sooner.

Now Ashley looks so small to us. Emily was really tall and had much bigger feet. Ashley has short legs and little feet but she has really grown this past year. She has moved up a size in shorts and pants too!!! Ashley does NOT eat much at ALL. But she still grows she loves milk and peanut butter sandwiches. Ashley is crazy and wild. Emily and her fight all the time. But then Ashley is hugging her telling Emily best friends forever!! I love you Ashley and you look just like your mama!!

Chloe, just a pause on her.

My sweet baby, girl I have to talk about her for a second to record her milestones and personality at almost 14 months!!! OMG where has time gone! Anyway Chloe is the baby and knows it. Michael and I have deiced no more kids at this point in our lives we want to enjoy the three beautiful girls GOD gave us. Chloe has an opinion about everything she grunts a lot, smiles, screams, laughs and bites. I need to record her and post it. She has that scream that could break ear drums the other girls don't have that. She is the kid that screams in a restaurant. She is pretty easy going as long as you are holding her if she does not like something or someone you know. The picture I posted is her eating her dinner. If she does not like a piece of food she places it in the left side of her tray. It is so funny. She now throws fits if you tell her no and then will bite Michael or me. She did this in church this past Sunday in the class we were helping in. The people were shocked at her behavior. Well Chloe is sweet and is loved by so many her great blue eyes light brown hair almost brown, and tan skin. She is a sweet baby that is HUGE!!! She is scared of many things horses up close, slides, Mr. Jim, and being hung up side down. (ohh Uncle Joe too.) See previous post video about slide.

Another Bath outside!!! Plus Chloe.

So on this night after dinner Chloe was awake so we all went out and played in the water. It is so HOT here right now that even the hose water is warm. Going to the pool is gross it is like "human soup." No joke the water at the pool has to be like 85-90 degrees. So we hide inside all day or do play dates in doors and play in the water in the evening if it is not too hot.

Warriors !!!

This is the girls playing Avatar in the back yard or warriors. They love to put the hose in the sand and rub it all over. Like I said taking a bath is what they are doing just exfoliating first!!!

More backyard fun.

So if the Spring Hill water POLICE ask my kids take baths in the back yard I am not watering my weeds!! We have water restrictions in Spring Hill right now. But it gets so HOT and by the end of the day the kids are so board. So the other day I let them play in the hose. Again we are not watering the weeds!

I love water pictures and the girls playing outside together. Killer loves playing in the water too. The girls however do NOT like to play with him in the water he gets pretty annoying. Enjoy the pictures.

The river...again.

This past weekend we went to the river again. We really enjoy going to the river and we go with some great people. Its not like in CA when you get on a boat, it is just a river and the kids can swim and adults. There is two rope swings and two mud slides. I have tried the rope swing, Michael and Emily. Ashley has tried with Michael Chloe I don't think is ready for that yet. It is a good work out and we have lots of fun. We got to the Duck River about 10:15 and stayed tell almost three it is a good way to pass the day away. We all took naps that afternoon and had a late dinner and then went to grandma and grandpa's later that night it was 7pm. Finally cool enough to spend sometime out side with the horses, chickens and new baby cats that Cindy has. Nordy (Emily named her), and Marshmallow aka Blue Eyes. It was a great weekend we enjoyed ourselves. Enjoying the last weeks of Summer before Emily starts school. I wish I had a water proof camera to film all the river action next year it is a must to have!!!

Backyard fun!!

So it has been soo hot that the girls hardly play outside lately unless we are at the river or swimming. So the other evening it was over cast and a little cooler so the girls were playing outside in the back. Ashley and I were having fun torturing Chloe on the slide. Chloe did not like the slide when I finally got the camera out it was not as funny but I will share with you all. She would tremble down the slide. Lots of fun. Chloe, Ashley and I love you very much but you are a huge scarried cat so we are trying to tough you up. The other videos I am adding are of the girls riding around in the Mustang. Ashley is growing up so fast she can now drive the mustang...not great I need to get Chloe a helmet but she can do it. Ashley is growing in other ways too her shorts are all getting to small, panties too. I hate a mid summer grow I have to dig out clothes and peice together maybe some of it will still fit next year. Anyways back on topic it was a fun hour or so of playing in the back watching the girls. Like I said a lot has changed in the last year for us the girls now really only depend on each other now. No outside friends in the afternoons, most days. It is sad but on the other hand I want them to know that they are sisters and that they will only have each other at some points in their lives. They truly love each other and it warms my heart. I am doing at least something right on THAT day!! (Spell check is not working please forgive me.)
