August Summary!

 Owen is still taking sporadic Sunday naps! He usually puts himself to sleep!

Cute Quinn taking his Sunday selfie!

Quinn was stung by a wasp, and his feet swelled up and were SO itchy! It just kept getting bigger and tighter, so we had to slip into the doctor for an antibiotic!

One afternoon, while Owen slept, Charlie was absolutely nuts!

Harper helped me pick the last of the peas...and then she ate all of them! My peas always get eaten before I can do anything else with them!

A couple more pictures from our Salt Lake City get away!

The twins got in trouble, so they had to sit in a tall stool on time out, crying. They didn't dare move, and the closeness, somehow, kept the other twin there!

Before school started I touched up some holes and paint on our mud-room cubbies!

These three have so much fun dressing up as the pull-up triplets, but it makes a mess of pull ups when they are done!

Harper and Owen having story time!

One more picture of the quilt that I sewed for the state fair!

Macey and Cooper getting their binders ready before Middle School starts!

Middle school orientation with Cooper! Him moving to middle school was a big transition for me! He has totally bloomed, and middle school has been so good for him!

Cooper has gotten many of these Ram Cards in the mail this year. (I think we are number 11!) He doesn't try to get them...he is just really good doing the right thing! I'm glad he is getting recognized for that!

A couple boys digging in the dirt! Summer was so good to these boys!

Harper is my sewing partner! During the day, while I sew, she usually perches somewhere beside me and helps out!

Monroe City Power Picnic! 

Owen and Charlie had their 3 year old preschool orientation! I was so nervous how they would do...but they did a great job!! Mrs. Stacey is just the best!

If you are going to fall asleep, at least fall asleep with a Dr. Pepper in your hand! 

Bath time fun!

One day, after Cooper got done eating lunch, he told me he was bored, so he asked for a broom to help clean up. While he was sweeping up the cafeteria (still filled with his peers) he found a penny! It reminded him of his Grandpa and reassured him he was doing something he was would be proud of!

Owen loves to sit up front with his dad on the stand at church! He fit into the extra chair so nicely! (And Charlie usually sticks with Mom!)

When it's too quiet in the house, and the three little kids work together to create a "grocery store" in their bedroom! (It took a lot of work to bring it back to the kitchen!)
