Look At Those Cheeks

This post is all about Brianna Taylor....She reminds me so much of Gracie when she was a baby. I love this little girl my heart feels like it's going to burst.
Brianna with Big Brother Brandon. (I think she was tired of having the camera in her face)

Field Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

Gracie's class had their first field trip last Thursday to the Pumpkin Patch in Flower Mound. This is the first time I've ever agreed to let Gracie attend a field trip. She was so PROUD to be riding on the school bus. For those of you who know me are not going to be surprised that I followed the school bus! I'm not ready to let go yet.

Doesn't her face say "I did it"!

I was really surprised when she wanted to go into the maze? I was very proud of this little class, they stuck together and figured it out.

Can you believe this tree?

Big Girl & Big Boy

This evening was a very monumental evening for us. As I was getting the kids bath ready, I noticed Cameron had an odd look on his face. It hit me - he has to go potty. I quickly took him to the restroom and sat him on the potty. He squinted his eyes and gave me "the look". I sat down and kept telling him over and over, "it's ok, go potty" - and then it HAPPENED. Our little boy went big potty for the first time. I even got him to bend over and hike his hiney up in the air so I could wipe. Kenny wouldn't let me take a picture so I hope you just take my word. I don't think I would really want to post THAT picture.

Then, after Gracie was dressed, she sat on the bed and said, I can comb my hair by myself. If you haven't seen Gracie in awhile, her hair comes down to her waist. She sat there and brushed and brushed and brushed. I just watched her in total awe. She's growing up!

I thank the Lord each day for such wonderful children he has given us and am in complete awe of them each day.
