Ring Around the Rosy














The smiles and laughter of Miss Claire running in circles singing Ring Around The Rosy at the top of her lungs....PRICELESS!!!

Playing with Max & Millee

This past week we played with Max and Millee two nights in a roll....and guess what?? Claire even had her first sleepover!!! The Mobleys came over for dinner and by the end of the night CC wanted to go spend the night...so off she went!! It was already 9:00 but I still figured within the hour I would get a call she was coming home but nope!!! Claire piled up in the bed with Max and slept through the night....it wasn't just her first sleepover...it was a sleepover with a boy!!! The next night I kept all three kids for awhile and we had such a great time!!! When Friday night rolled around CC couldn't comprehend why Max and Millee were not coming over to play again??

Silly girl!
Painting masterpieces!!!

The two toddlers were painting toes and fingers...

Sprinkle on the big slide!!! FUN!!!

The dry grass was hurting their feet so I told them to go in and get their shoes...Max comes out with CC's purple flip flops on and "Miss Fashion" comes out with her fur lined suede boots on!!! Go figure!!! Swimsuit+Suede Boots = Cover of Vogue, Right??

Playing on the playground

Claire pushing Millee

Look at those boots!!! I love your style Claire!!!

Pre School 1

This week Claire moved up to Pre School 1!!! I can't believe she is getting big enough for the Pre School level classes in her school! She loves Ms. Shirl's room and has already come home this week telling me all the new things she is learning! I tried to get a good picture of her first day of Pre School 1 ..... the below photos show just how our photo shoots go these days...full of Attitude! Showing her back pack!
CC is highly addicted to band aids...typically 2 on at all times!

Mackenzie's Birthday Party

Claire's best friend, Mackenzie, turned 3 last week...and we have been talking about her birthday party for weeks!!! Oh, the excitement!!! Talking about Mackenzie's birthday means we know talk about Claire party.....and its going to be a Princess Party...she completely came up with this on her own. Can't believe these girls are turning 3....they met when they were just 5 months old in the nursery at school and have been inseparable!


There was a photographer at the party and I can't wait to see some of the shoots of the girls!


Fishing on Mackenzie's pond....we caught a lot of seaweed:)

Mackenzie's "Suz"...(grandmother) helping CC fish....of course CC calls her Suz too!


Playing on the play house!

Water Park

Claire has spent lots of time at the Arkadelphia Waterpark this summer but Nene met us at the "new" waterpark in Murfreesboro. Perfect place for kids CC's age! If we went down this slide once, we did 100 times!
Playing in the waterfall!


She made the mistake of sitting on one of these one day at the Arkadelphia waterpark...emergency trip to the bathroom!!!...I think she learned her lesson!



Nene and Claire....wish you could hear Claire say Nene these days, it has quiet the southern draw!!

Momma with her little water bug....she loves swimming...but I think by this time she was growing a little sleepy!!! Swimming is hard work especially the 100+ degree weather we have had all summer!
