A bee-utiful day at the park

Today we went to the park and right when we get there, Gabby lets out a screech. She got stung by a bee on her arm! It had a pretty good welt but it is already starting to look better. Poor baby!

I couldn't resist...

Pucker Up

Happy Birthday Holly

So I love my wife and I've never done a post before so sorry I couldn't figure out the picture thing.

Holly is the best wife and mother. She takes care of our kids and me so well. I married her because she was the nicest person I knew, among other things, and after living with her for almost five years she is still the nicest person I know. She loves our girls so much and I know she would do anything for them. I hope you have a fun day while I'm at school. I love you.

Miss Smartypants

Carter has been making baby steps with learning to read. This week she started sounding out words & spelling them with the letters on the fridge. I don't even have to help her very much!

Mini Mom

Gabby loves babies, even though she's still a baby. She will lug this doll around, wrap it in a blankie, pat its back, try to give it a binky & it's almost as big as she is!

Girl Power

Robert only has one other guy, Randy, in his dental hygiene class with him. I think it is funny that both guys only have daughters! Here are Carter & Gabby playing dress-up with 2 of Randy's 3 girls. Sorry guys, you're pretty outnumbered! Thank goodness for ESPN.

Stretchy Pants

We were getting the girls ready for church today & putting their tights on when Carter says "Mom, these are my stretchy pants." We were cracking up! I guess that's what happens when your 3-year-old is in love with Nacho Libre.

Happy Birthday Becky!

How did I have a random picture of Becky holding the famous birthday balloons? I can't believe my baby sister is the big 2-0! We love ya Becky & hope you have a fun day. Thanks for being an awesome auntie & sister.

Last days of summer

We are taking advantage of every last minute of nice summery weather we can get! Carter decided she wanted to go on a bike ride today & is actually trying to use the pedals now (although, she still opts for her feet most of the time). I don't know what Gabby is looking at but it must have been pretty shocking, look at that face!

Happy Day

It's true, we can finally blog again from the comforts of our own home. Amazing. For a quick update-Robert started school last week & is already hard at work. He will be seeing a lot of patients this year & is excited to get another year done. The girls & I have been loving our new place & are still getting settled in. Carter has been working on learning to read & I just finished reading Stuart Little to her this week (her first chapter book). Gabby is growing up like crazy & turns one year old this month. Her new tricks are to shake her head when we say "no way, jose" & to blow kisses at us. Hopefully, we can start posting more pictures now & keep all you friends/family bloggers updated.

Cardinals Training Camp '07

Yes, these are old happenings & Maelynn posted her pictures weeks ago but it was fun to have the Warrens visit & go to training camp with us...

Micah leaves Carter in the dust as they race on the obstacle course :)

Gabby loved training camp, can't you tell?
