Funny Story...

This past Tuesday {6.11.13}

Miss Abby had her very first 

piano lesson! She has been quite 

anxious to join her big sister in

taking lessons and we have found

a fabulous teacher that had spots 

for both Emma and Abby! 

{back to back!!}

I wasn't sure I'd find someone 

that I liked as much as we liked

Emma's teacher in LBK but we found

a great new teacher who we LOVE!!

~Funny story~

The other day Abby ran to the store 

with me to grab a few things and after 

we got what we needed we got in the car

and were on our way home. We had taken

Daddy's car, {since the kids all think it is 'cooler' 

than the Mommy-mobile}

as we were driving Abby, quietly says from the back seat

A-"Momma, Daddy's car is clean"

Me-"Yep, Daddy's car is clean. Its usually just Daddy

who rides in it, so it stays clean, huh!"

A-"Yeah, your car's not clean...because we always

want to bring toys and food in your car"

Me-"Yeah, maybe we can all work together to try and keep

Mommy's car clean by taking in toys when we go inside!"

A-"Yes!! I'm sorry that I make messes all the time. I dont like making

messes all the time, and I wanna stop, but I just can't {brutally honest :)}

....I'm sorry Momma, I'll start helping you more around the house too!"

~~~Abigail Lane, age 4 

Isn't she the sweetest? I just admire her 

for many things, but in this instant for 

her precious little sense of humor. I'm

not sure she know's how really funny 

she actually is!! She just keeps

us all laughing all the time! Saying

the most unpredictably funny things 

out of the blue, all the time! 

Abby Beth Lane, you, 

truly are one in a million!

Summer has officially begun and is in full swing

in North Texas! Let's just say that it has been

HOT!!

What do you do when its miserably hot outside?

Go to the pool of course! :)

Ethan in his new swim trunks :)

{isn't he a stud?}

Emma and Abby on their 1st Day of Swim Camp

at AquaKids! They go every day for 30 mins for 2 weeks!

They have both come SO far from where they 

started! When we started swimming lessons 

neither could swim at all, not even a little...

now they are both little fish! Miss Emma got moved

up to level 2 on the second day and has just blown 

us and her teachers away! She can now swim all the 

way across the pool by herself! She can swim forwards

and on her back as well! I'm so proud of her!!

Abby has learned SO much as well! She can swim 3/4 

of the way across the pool by herself and she goes 

farther every time! I'm very proud of her too! 

They are going to be swimming pro's after this

next week of lessons! 

Totally ready for the beach on the 4th with
Mammy, Poppy, Juju, & Babbo + Katie :)

{We cannot wait!!}

Sophie's ready for 4th of July on the Beach!!

So thankful for sweet new friends

 from our new Life Group!
