Dresses


Here is a picture of Lexie and Kim's dresses for the wedding.

Lexie loved hers and didn't want to take it off.

Wagon Sledding


We have started a new sport. Wagon sledding. We went to a birthday party friday and the kids were pulling their wagon up a hill and were climbing in and riding it down the hill. Lexie had the best time so when we got home we had to get our wagon out and find a hill! It is a lot of fun if you can keep the wagon straight and not tip over.

JD did not ride down the hill but loved being pulled around.

Harvest Time

Well harvest time is here in full force which means that Chad is working very very long hours and I feel like a single mom. They are having a record breaking year for many reasons, heat ,drought, and the amount of corn brought in. Chad dumped over 225 trucks yesterday. He has practically moved in. He took Lexie's blow up bed and is sleeping in his office because they are working 24 hours a day! He only comes home to shake off all his dust, dump the corn kernels out of his pockets and shoes, and take a shower! Luckily the boom will only last a little longer and then he will only work until 8 every night.

Update




Wow it has been busy around here! I really need to update. Lexie has started preschool again and is loving it as always. Her teacher is wonderful and they are the puppy class which pleases Lexie to no end. She tells me she is going to puppy school and her teacher actually calls them her puppies!

On our puppy front we had to give away Sassy. She was just too rough with Lexie and the other new puppy which I will get to in a minute. Sassy has snapped and bit Lexie several times on the face and her daddy was not going to have that! It was not the usual puppy type of biting more of the dominate type. Lexie got to the point where she didn't want to get her out of the pen.

In other news we have a new coondog puppy. His name is Bozo and is so cute. Chad and Lexie have been getting him out at night and training him! He loves Lexie and will let her carry him everywhere and do anything with him. That was the problem with Sassy she didn't want to do what Lexie wanted her to do!

JD has been eating like a horse. He loves almost anything you give him. He is also trying to say his da da da sounds. He is becoming scared of strangers and will cry when they try to talk to him. He is still not crawling but will be very soon. He can get on his hands and knees but can't go anywhere. He has also started pulling up on things. I turned around the other day and he had pulled up on one of his toys and was just standing there!!
