Catch-Up!

I have a lot to catch up on - I'll start with some of my latest favorite pictures!

***

First off, here are some pictures of Kaylee playing soccer - she's been enjoying it, and has even scored a few goals! If you missed it before, I posted Brianna's soccer pictures here. Tonight is Brianna's last game and tomorrow night is Kaylee's last game - it's been fun to watch them but I'm glad it's almost over. When you're down there Monday thru Thursday for 4 weeks it really makes for some busy nights! Next year they will be in the same league and on the same team, so we'll only be there 2 nights a week which will be nice!

Here is Trysten all snuggled up with Grandpa. It wouldn't be too bad outside if it weren't for the wind!

On our way home from our Utah trip, our windshield got smacked by a huge rock. We had been talking about getting it replaced anyway since we had a long crack from a rock about a year ago. But after this latest incident we couldn't put it off any longer, it left big baseball sized rings on the driver's side. Anyway, so for the first time in almost a month, I had to drag Brailee out of bed so I could take it into the shop before 8:00. I didn't make her get dressed, but she decided she wanted to fix her hair, so this is what she looked like as we left that morning.

While we were in Utah, a Robin built a nest on the back porch light - right outside our back door. Now every time we go outside she takes off, but flies by and chirps at us. Poor mamma didn't pick a very good spot! There were eggs in it before we had a chance to move it, so we have left it there. The girls enjoyed seeing the eggs and we'll just see how things go once they hatch - hopefully mamma won't get too cranky with us!

Trysten is still just as happy as ever. He especially loves his bathtime right now. Until now I have set his tub on the bathroom counter to give him his bath, but we're going to have to move to the tub now - he loves to kick and splash which gets water everywhere! He might outgrow this tub before he sits up well by himself anyway, he is so long!

Here is just another pic of his adorable smile - he just turns inside out!

We did sparklers again the other night...

...which led to Brailee's eye getting poked by a sparkler stick she found on the ground the next day. Her eye is fine during the day, but when she is really sleepy, like first thing in the morning, or before and after naptime, and before bedtime, her eye is really droopy. Her doctor has looked at it and isn't too concerned - of course when he looked at it, she looked fine but was a stinker and wouldn't let him examine her ;-P We'll just be keeping an eye on her I guess.
