Boys in the house...

He loves this dog...

Fun at the Park

This afternoon we went to the Golfinsville Park for a birthday party... and the kids had a blast. Liam LOVED playing all over the play set, slide, on the swings, and wherever else he could.
Aydin and Morgan played with their friends, with Liam, ran around... and best of all spent a few hours outside in beautiful weather.

He went down this slide at least 50 times... 


here I go...

woo hoo...


my little monkey can climb that to the top... and did many times.

got to love these boys...




Yulee vs. Ponte Vedra

Once again, the Yulee Hornets were able to pull of another win... and an upsetting one at that. We are now 4-0 and the only undefeated team in the league. Ponte Vedra has had an amazing season of their own, they have never been scored on... that was until they played our team!!
The boys did great and were able to come out on top!!
Final score- 25-26

 Look out... here they come!!

Day 300!!

Auntie Heather sent the kids a paper chain to count down the days until Steve comes home. Each 30 days, she sends the kids (and I) a box of goodies to have something to look forward to.
Today we are on day 300 which means... only 300 more days until Steve is home!!
Last month was candy and movie tickets and today... we came home from Aydins football game to SUNDAE goodies!!
The box was filled with:
bananas
chocolate sauce
caramel sauce
hersey chocolate chips, sprinkles and cookie pieces toppings
reeses peanut butter chips, sprinkles and cookie pieces toppings
sprinkles
cherries
gummy worms
gummy stars
chocolate covered sunflower seeds
chocolate rocks
I think she could have sent a box full of confetti... the kids loved it more than you would think...








Hornets vs. Callahan

What a stressful game!!
This afternoon, we played the Callahan Red today who was undefeated... until TODAY!!
These boys almost met their match... with a tied game 6-6 throughout the whole game until the last few minutes on the clock. They started off a little slow for the first half... but the defense came back strong in the second half.
The final score: Hornets 12 Callahan 6

I cannot believe how well Aydin is playing this season. It is so much fun watching him progress each week and actually have fun doing it. It makes me sad that Steve is not here to see him play. He would be so proud!
Hornets are 4-0 and hope to go the rest of the season undefeated.

More soccer...

Another fun game on the soccer fields tonight.
Morgan did well tonight, no goals for her but she tried!! We played a great team, they had a few kids that could run circles around our whole team. The kids are so fun to coach and watch progress as the weeks go by. Morgan is loving every minute of playing and that is all I can ask for!!
Life with Liam is always interesting!!
Anyone who knows Liam... knows how much of a nightmare he can be, the stuff he gets into, and what he destructs. We also know that every door must be shut in the house so he doesnt get into Aydins legos, Morgan's doll house, the book shelf, my bathroom, the pantry.... Shutting the door to keep Liam out only works when he does not know how to open the door!!!
This morning I heard him in the bathroom... which is not where I want to find him- EVER- and this is what I found him doing...
Yes... That is both Aydin and Morgans tooth brush in him mouth and hand... Yumm!!
Oh- Liam... we love you but are now locking all the doors!!!

Morgan's turn at the doctors

Today was Morgans appointment at the children's hospital for the same procedure (a VCUG) Aydin got 2 weeks ago. I have to say... she was hilarious under sedation. She was walking funny, talking funny, and did not want to leave! She cracks me up. Unlike Aydin, she is perfectly fine... no reflux at all!

Hornets vs. Callahan

Today the Hornets took on the Callahan Gold team and once again proved that they are a great team!! These boys are playing so well together it is fun to watch. I am so grateful for the amazing coaches they have and the great group of parents.
The final score was Hornets 33, Callahan 8.
Off to a great start this season... we are now 3-0.
