soccer girl!

miss evelyn started soccer a few weeks ago and is loving it!  i have really been enjoying watching her, she gets so silly with the other girls on her team.  she is such a little hustler out on the field!  last weekend she scored her first goal and her reaction was priceless.  she looked at the audience tilted her head and did a little shoulder shrug!  then she looked over at brian who was sitting with the rest of her teammates and she gave him the same reaction!  i so wish i would have got a video of that!:)

 we have an awesome coach and assistant coach, which just happens to be brian! :)

 ev and one of her kindergarten friends....

 that's her kicking the ball, she is number #3...

 soccer was by far my favorite sport, so its been so much fun watching her love it!

 great team with some really sweet girls on it!

happy soccer season!

blossoming at 35 weeks!

for those of you who have requested some belly pics here is a few!

 although i'm now 36 weeks and seeing my doctor every week...let the countdown begin!  i found out at my appointment this week that she is no longer breach!  she turned...thank goodness, i love her already!  this has been by far my hardest and hottest pregnancy, so i'm anxious for the little misses arrival.   my girls tells me my belly is "huge" and want to kiss my belly all the time!  its crazy how much they talk about their baby sis to be, so fun that they are so excited!

i will try and keep you posted on the progress and any major changes. in the mean time, i'm trying to keep up a little bit of energy so i can continue with a few nesting project! :)

kindergarten!!!

this little cutie just finished her very first full week of kindergarten! 

 she did awesome the first week when she only went two days, but for some reason the second week was a little rough.  i think coming off a weekend of spending time with lots family it was a hard adjustment.  she shed just a few tears, but she didn't want anyone to know she was having to fight back tears.  such a tough girl.  amelia and i went and had lunch with her one day and that was fun to see her in action at school.   so impressed by how mature she seems.  the funny thing about her being a little upset is she tells me every day how much she LOVES school...i'm so glad she does!

love these two girls!  

i would be lying if i said i didn't miss her...i get so excited when its time to go pick her up, 7 1/2 hours is along time when your use to hanging out together all day! :)

backpack time...there is still some days that she doesn't eat any of her lunch, or maybe she will eat three carrots or two raspberries, she says there is just so many people in the lunch room and she is only use to eating with three other people.  seriously how cute is that?  i think that will change, but in the mean time she eats and eats and eats when she get home from school! :)

amelia has been adjusting pretty well with big sis being gone, the first few days were the hardest.  or the day we had lunch and played on recess she wanted to stay with sis.   i have been trying to keep her busy with playdates and mom dates, so far she has been doing better.

look how excited these two little cuties look for the first day of school...

at her table ready to learn!

walking to the bathroom, i think that is a pretty good line for the first day!

while sis is in school i have had fun spending time with this almost three year old!

she seems so much older to me now that evelyn is in school...i love the silly conversations we have, and the cuddle time we have been enjoying.  this girl has such a fun personality!  i'm trying to enjoy every second of this stage as i know that in just a few weeks i will have my hands full loving on another sweet girl! :)

fall is bringing lots of changes, but its all good change.  it might get a little crazy at times, but that's just the fun part, i think we already know "crazy" pretty well! :)

happy fall to my two sweet ladies!!!!
