Day 500

The big 5-0-0...
500 posts, wow. With today being Memorial day and most folks having the day off of work, I decided to give my cameras the day to relax too. Am I nice or what? We worked for a bit this morning and then went to pick up the kids and have dinner with my parents. I can't believe that C is already out of school and will be a kindergartner...crazy! I hope everyone had a terrific long weekend and took a few moments out to remember those who gave their lives in our armed services to make our freedom possible.

Day 499

Playing catch-up...
Ahhh, no kids this weekend. You'd think me & T would just be lazin around, drinking wine and relaxing with the house to ourselves, right? Wrong! We are both up to our eyeballs in work and that is how we spent the afternoon after we got back from church. As it would happen, it is much easier to get ourselves there without three kiddos to corral too!

Day 498

Wildlife...
A developer has decided that in order to build efficiently at the back entrance of our neighborhood, all of the trees needed to be mowed down completely. I can't stand it. We used to have a nice little bank of trees on the opposite side of the retention pond and now it's just baron save for the fire station that is being built (can't wait for their sirens to be blowing at all hours of the night). The result of all the trees being removed is that lots of little critters are searching for new homes like this little guy who was exploring all of our front yards this evening.

Day 497

Field Day Fun Take 3...
We didn't stay outside very long today. M's field day was from noon until 2pm and it was just too hot out there. With M's fair skin, I decided to take her home early when her shoulders were starting to turn pink. She did stay long enough to participate in all the class tug-of-wars though!

Day 496

Straight...
We decided to go straight today with boo's hair. Given the chance of rain and guaranteed humidity, the tardy she got at school for her trouble may not have been worth it. Do ya think she has trouble with her confidence? Naaaah. LOL!

Day 495B

This just in...
Or out as the case may be. We have been working and working on this front tooth and tonight I had finally had enough of looking at it sticking out of L's mouth so....I yanked it before she even had time to react. She wanted me to take a toothless picture of her so badly that we waited til the end of Idol (the DVR cut off the winner...yeah, we were a teensy bit ticked) and then took a quick pic.

PS...YAY for David Cook!!!

Day 495

Water day...
As the mom with the biggest camera, it was my job to grab pics of all the kids having a blast this morning. The weather man said the high was 85? Yeah right, it was at least that at 11am this morning. I sure wished I had my suit on and could run and jump on the giant slip-n-slide or take a ride down the huge water slide!

The director of the school was "testing" one of the games on C!!
