Picture of the Week: Playing at the Park


Monday was Labor Day, and since we were all off work/school, we spent the morning at the park playing in the gorgeous weather.







We hit up the Halloween store, because that's one of Daddy and the girls' favorite things to do. They always open the first weekend in September, and you bet these weirdos were counting down the days.


She sang in the car on the way home.


The girls helped me make some turkey meatballs, and they turned out so good. We ate them over some zucchini noodles with red sauce.






We went through the girls backpacks to get them ready for school the next day. They love to show us their artwork that they bring home.




Grace's class celebrated all of the summer birthdays, and her teacher made them some cute little gifts.


Perry and Brielle played together at school, and their teacher sent me these cute pictures.



Perry rode her "bike" in the front yard, and I cringed at her bare feet on the asphalt.


I came across this and loved it.


Grace left us some post-its on the fridge to let us know what she wanted in her lunch the next day and also to remind us that it was picture day.


Perry talked to her little mouse toy at Char's soccer practice.



Grace had crazy hair day at school, and her teacher sent us this cute picture.


The girls had their first soccer games on Saturday. They both moved up this season, so Grace is on a much bigger field with six girls on the field, a bigger net and an official goalie. Char now has four girls on the field and the coach stays on the sidelines. They both played hard, and we're excited for them to learn more this season.


Perry scored a goal at half time.


Perry tried her hardest not to fall asleep on Charley's bed while they watched a movie.


The girls painted some Halloween crafts on Sunday.



Painting wore Perry out, and she napped while I watched the Titans game.


Her face shows my exact feelings as all of the Titans seemed to be going down with injuries one after another.


We had more zpaghetti with pink sauce this time, and it was another hit with the girls.


See ya next week!

...Char was sleeping so peacefully Monday morning that I didn't want to wake her up. ...she made me a pretty picture at school with chalk. ...she continued her obsession with the easel and colored (and watched Toy Story ) while waiting for Daddy to get home from work. Hooray for panties! ...it got cold and windy again, but we played outside anyways. Isaac played catch with the neighbor boys, while JJ flew the kite and Char strutted her stuff. ...the girls danced around the living room. There is an iTunes Radio station called 'Frozen Radio' that the girls are crazy about. They play random Disney songs, and we listen to it all.the.time. (After watching this a few times, I realized that Char was trying to sing "friend in" as in "You've Got a Friend In Me".) ...Grace put Charley to bed by tickling her face. ...the girls got cake pops. Yep, for breakfast. ...we got to school a few minute...

Can you believe Grace is nineteen months old? Time flies so much faster when you have a baby! This month she got to go see Dr. Vu for a check-up and didn't even have to get any shots. She was super excited hanging out in the waiting room and even learned how to say "cars": At nineteen months, Grace weighs in at 26 pounds, 4 ounces. This puts her in the seventy-fifth percentile for weight. We absolutely love that she's so squishy. It's makes it much more fun to smother her cheeks with kisses. She is also 31 inches tall. This is in the sixtieth percentile. Baby must have gone through a growth spurt since her last check up, because she was only in the thirtieth percentile back then. This month Grace learned a lot of new words. My favorite is when we say her bedtime prayers and at the end she says, "aaaamennn". It's so precious! She's now obsessed with Elmo and says "Ah Ehmo?" for "Where's Elmo?". She's also go...

Charley turns FIVE!

Char Char, the five year old. That doesn't even seem real. This girl has grown and changed so much over the past couple of months. She's lost her toddler look and is total big girl status these days. (She does still have her chipmunk voice, so at least I can hang on to that.) Charley will be starting Kindergarten soon, and we have her orientation this upcoming weekend. I'm not ready for that. With Grace, I was so excited. Charley still feels like a baby to me. She, on the other hand, cannot wait to join her big sis and the Sebastian boys at school every day. Charley recently had a doctor's appointment where they told her she didn't need any shots, and she was so happy after anticipating them all day. She weighed in at forty pounds and stands forty-four inches tall. She's in the fiftieth percentile for weight and the seventy-fifth for height. She is in size five in almost everything and is wearing a size ten in shoes. Char loves her dresses a...
