Our August so far...

This smiley face is some of the best parts of my days.

mmm.... avocados! We started Bradyn this past week on foods - Avocados were first and we've had sweet potatoes too.

Grandma came and spent a week with us, with the kids out of school for the month of August she was a big help! Thanks for everything, I know it was exhausting!
Stay tuned for more from August....the kids go back to pre-school next week - we can't wait!

swimming at grandma's

I took the kids up to my parents house 2 weekends ago for a quick trip. We spent most of the time in the pool! With the heat, its really the only thing worth doing! Uncle Case came over both days to swim and keep Jerra and Jorja entertained. They both love him so much, and he is so good with them.








We also visited the Disney store (Jerra about lost her mind!), rode the carousel at the mall, attempted the Grapevine Aquarium (line was TOO long), had a yummy lunch at Red Robin (one restaurant I wish College Station had), and I got tons of winter clothes for the kids at a local Kids Consignment Sale. Successful weekend!

The difference b/w Republicans and Democrats

Guess what!? It's that time again! Not sure I am ready for all the back and forth debating, but I am ready to see a CHANGE for sure! Since this is my blog and I can write whatever I want, I am posting this comparison of righties and lefties sent to me from my Father in Law....guess which side of the fence we are on! ;-)


If you ever wondered which side of the fence you sit on, this is a great test!

If a Republican doesn't like guns, he doesn’t buy one.
If a Democrat doesn't like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.

If a Republican is a vegetarian, he doesn’t eat meat.
If a Democrat is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone.

If a Republican is homosexual, he quietly leads his life.
If a Democrat is homosexual, he demands legislated respect.

If a Republican is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation.
A Democrat wonders who is going to take care of him.

If a Republican doesn't like a talk show host, he switches channels.
Democrat’s demand that those they don't like be shut down.

If a Republican is a non-believer, he doesn't go to church.
A Democrat non-believer wants any mention of God and religion silenced.

If a Republican decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it,
or may choose a job that provides it.
A Democrat demands that the rest of us pay for his.

If a Republican reads this, he'll forward it so his friends can have a good laugh.
A Democrat will delete it because he's "offended".
Well, I forwarded it.

Whats new?

Jerra is my little ballerina! She likes to dress up and especially loves her ballerina dresses. Grandma keeps her closet well stocked!

Jorja trying corn on the cob for the 1st time! of course, she like it!


Jerra has been asking me to straigten her hair all this week after baths...it makes her look a lot older.



Jorja likes to color and paint. She is very intent.
