the only way...

To capture my childrens briefly passing childhood is... to blog. ugh. It's true. I'm not facebooking (not that it has much to do with your kids), I'm not scrapbooking, I'm not journaling... I'll do as much as I can and when I have a minute I might as well blog it. xo

Trick or Treat

"I'm FIVE!"

What a cool age for a kid... 5. Peyton had a big girl tea party with all her friends from preschool. I don't know what was more fun for her, looking forward to it, or the actual event. She is so PROUD to be five. It's a BIG deal!
I love that kid.

I told Peyton, "you know, maybe you might not want your sister there since it's going to be a BIG GIRL party." she said, "Whaaat, not have my sweetest baby sister there... NO WAY!" She's a better big sis than i was.

longest two weeks...

This is the afterbath of swim lessons. 2 long weeks of tears (Reese's tears) but as soon as we learned to keep her sister in the pool and put matching goggles on her....... the tears were minimal and we have TWO swimmers.
