....and more fun....

Summer Fun

My plan for August is to get back to blogging, but right now we're too busy with summer fun!

Happy 4th of July!

Math

The girls are working on some math today. Not so much because I want them to keep their skills up, but more so because the sound of math is more pleasant than the sound of fighting.

Also, it's worth noting that tattling is still tattling even if you lower your voice to a near whisper to do it, Peyton.

Father's Day Overkill....

I went a little overboard on the pictures maybe, but it's been so long since I've posted anything here and the walk down memory lane was really fun.  So, I included them all.  Happy Father's Day, Babe.  We love you....

And since every word of this post still rings true, I'll likely include it every year. 

Ballin'

Libby's teacher has been sending books home for Peyton's "homework" which is really so sweet.  Peyton feels like a big girl and loves it.  Here's hoping that enthusiasm holds up next year.  Tonight though, while we read, I realized we have some work to do when she couldn't identify the names of common balls.  She called them....

a "batball"

a "baseball"

 We'll call this "the blank stare"

To her credit she did correctly identify a golf ball and a soccer ball.  But this one was my absolute favorite.  She called this....are you ready?

a "dog ball"

Sometimes I'm so head over heels for that kid.  I can't even believe she's mine.  But then, she's always been this kid.
