Ash taking good care of pretend Buggy wherever she goes.
Cynthia Little watched the girls one day this summer and they came home with Strawberry Shortcake, which they immediately dressed alike and played with the rest of the day.
A tour of the local news station. This time dad came instead of Ash and that night Ellia had fun watching the same people on the news that she saw at the station.
Slip n slide.
A new car for us! 2005 Honda Pilot.
A trip to Gergen ranch with just the girls. It was a very relaxing trip. The water was just right and kids had a lot of fun - even though mine still wouldn't voluntarily go down the slide. I did take Ash once though.
What happens when you play with Ash in the mud.
Love dress up time!
JC Penny was offering free kids haircuts before school started so I took Lia and decided to have Ash get her first ever trim too. They both did so good!
One day toward the end of August Jer took the girls ALL DAY for some mountain fun. Luckily Ash got to start off with a nap in the car.
The 'dirt snake' the girls discovered and almost walked right into.
Lia's birthday keeps going on and on..this time a package from Grandma Betty.
I turn my head for one minute and thr girls have got something hiding somwhere...this was the second tub of frosting they opened and started eating - since they didn't really like the chocolate.
Ellia wasn't enjoying her preschool class because of naps and we realized an age difference so I decided to see about getting her into the transitional kindergarten. I knew she was out of the date range but when I called they had one spot left and she got in!! Jer was in Houston while all this was going on but we hardly questioned the decision and soon after went to pick out a back pack. She wanted to wear it at all times. (The school deadline is changing each year here so those who miss it are offered a transitional kindergarten. If at the end of the year the teachers feel they are ready for first grade they can advance).
