Picture day

Today was Mia’s picture day for pre-school!

I’m fairly confident she was the cutest one in her class ;)  HAHA

Love that sassy girl!

After we dropped Mia off at school, daddy and I had dentist appointments.  And we brought our little tag along.  It’s a good thing she is so stinking cute :)

Found out at the dentist that my jaw pain is from a crazy wisdom tooth coming in side ways.  It is pushing my bottom teeth closer together also.  So, not only did that closeness of my bottom teeth cause a small cavity between two bottom teeth, I also have to have that bad mamajama taken out.  BOO!

Yay for super cute kids, boo for dental procedures.

Mia’s First Soccer Game

I can’t exactly say it was a success.  I guess she did as much as all 4-5 year olds do.  Chase the ball some, pick some grass, sit on the field and come off the field to tell me “Mama, I’m SO tired!”

She at least looked super cute doing it!

As much as I hate to admit it, I was SO my father’s daughter out there.  Yelling at Mia when she wasn’t paying attention to “KICK THE BALL!”, “PAY ATTENTION!” etc. Dave and I were probably the most obnoxious parents there.  And we are playing for our church

I really need to get it together.

During practice.  Mia’s turn to kick the ball!

Her team consists of 4 AND 5 year olds, and I’m pretty sure she is one of the youngest on the team, and definitely one of the smallest!  I need to give  a lot some slack.
 
Stretching and warming up!  How cute are little kids warming up??

This picture cracks me up!  During their warm up run, my poor girl got stampeded!

The little trooper got right back up and kept running! HAHA

Daddy giving Mia a little constructive criticism ;)

Pretty sure I felt terrible for being so hard core after the game.  Next game I am just going to sit back and let her have fun!  Life it too short to get all worked up.  Especially about a soccer game :)

Zoo with my girls

We actually had plans to go on a group play date today, but little miss woke up every two hours through the night with congestion, sneezing and runny nose.  Poor baby couldn’t breathe.  I didn’t know if it was the start of a cold, or terrible allergies like her mother, but I decided to cancel, just in case.  I didn’t want to expose any other kids, even though she was acting mostly fine.  A little fussy for Finley, but still a dag on trooper.

I have recently been going to the zoo with just Finley and I, with my girl friends, while Mia is in school.  Not that I don’t absolutely LOVE that, but today, I decided that I would take both girls, by myself.  To spend quality time with them, instead of me with friends, and just them being there.

I LOVE spending time with them.  I really get to listen to Mia and man!  That girl is smart and witty and knows so much more than I think she does!

After lots of playing and two hours of walking, up and down hills, these girls were pooped!

Over it…

I SO SO enjoyed my day, with just my two girls.  Love them more than they know!

More park action

I feel like this is something we do all.the.time., but seriously, the weather is beautiful, it’s fenced in and both girls (Mia and Sam) can run to their hearts content and wear their little selves out :)

Miss Hair, and her daddy, watching Sammy get the ball!
IMG_0133IMG_0137

Run girls run!  Sam actually wore down before Mia did!  The energy between those two is never ending!
IMG_0142IMG_0143

She would run by us and say “CLAP!” and then come give us high fives!

Doing a little rock climbing…

Park time always gives this mama a good rest time from the girls!

More play time, but this time with the little baby…

This crazy, so called aggressive dog, is so good with my girls!

Monday?  I won!

Church, grocery, play

We woke up, got ready and headed to church.

We were actually a little bit early this morning ::GASP:: so we did a little photo-shoot while we were waiting in the car!  HA

Mommy and her girls!

After an awesome bible fellowship class, we headed to see baby Jackson!  So.much.fun. :)  He is doing so well and is such a little cutie! Getting big already!

We then swung by the grocery before heading home.

When we pulled up to the house…

Dave said, “we don’t have ADT, we have S-A-M!”  True story.  Best guard dog ever!!

We then all went for a walk and had some outside play time to enjoy the amazing weather!

Dave and I put the girls to bed and ended our night watching a movie together. 
Perfect ending to our weekend!
