2 goals!!!

Holdyn scored TWO soccer goals at his game last night.... TWO!! He was so excited! Hadly keeps stealing the ball from him because she wants to play too, so I bouht her her own soccer ball today so next week at practice she can play all she wants :)

Can you believe....

Can you believe that all these pieces (and there were TONS of them... just ask daddy!) can turn in to....

 THIS!!!!!!

We had to leave our old swing set behind since it was part of the contract to sell the house so we just got their new one all set up! It has a picnic table underneath and both kids love the 3 stories!! Hadley climbs all the way to the top and just squeals in delight!! She has mastered the slide now too!!

Lions, Tigers and Soccer Cleats... Oh My!

After searching several stores to find the right sized shin guards, cleats, and practice socks, I finally found everything we needed. Phew! It's like a cat chasing a mouse! If I knew he needed all of this, I could have been looking all summer. Instead we crammed it all in to find everything in less than a week. Not very smart!  Holdyn was so excited to go to practice tonight and wear all of his new gear. His first game is Thursday. I hope this little team of 6 dream a lot about soccer the next 2 nights in hopes of pulling together on Thursday.

He kept looking at his shin guards and cleats and said over and over 'Mom, do I really get to keep these?!' He was so excited to know he wasn't just borrowing him... he really does get to keep them! He said 'So I can wear my gear to play when my friends come over?!' What ever makes you happy sweet pea!

 Where did my little boy go?! This kid is growing by leaps and bounds. I am missing the baby stage, but the older stage has started off fun! I just might enjoy this new phase in our lives.

 Ms. THANG was in rare form this evening at practice. She was in a mood. I don't know what her problem was! She was pushing her cup over, pushing Holdyn's drinks over, throwing her bow at me, took off her shoes and threw them on the soccer field, pushed my purse until it fell, etc. I don't know what got in to her. She shrieked in excitement when we pulled up to the field because she remembered going last week and how much fun she had running around and playing. A little boy her age came up to her and tried to hug her tonight and she took both of her hands and pushed him as hard as she could and screamed 'NOOOO!!!'

 Those big ole mean molars are still coming in and causing her some pain cause she is shoving her little fingers in the back of her mouth. I can't wait till these things finish coming in!

 Trying to keep her off the field is a task. She wants to throw everything out there and wants ANY reason to go walk right up to Holdyn. We might be attending round 2 of PeeWee Soccer when she gets old enough. Question is will she get out of a dress to get out there and play!! Usally every morning when we are getting dressed she will tell me 'DRESSS!!!' I ask is that what she wants to wear today. It is always a 'YES!' With them both in sports and having practice and games on different nights, I see us being busy bees the next several years. I guess Mr. R has always called me 'soccer mom' for a reason! ;)

Wordless Wednesday

Here it is.....

And we are in love! This is the first home we designed the floor plan and built. It is perfect for our family and will be making a lot of memories here!

 We are loving our new neighbors, the culdesac, the 3 car garage, and the ability of Holdyn being able to go play outside and not worry about him! Baily and Hyres both have adjusted amazingly well to the new home, as well as the kids! Everyone is doing great! You have to wait for inside pictures until we finsih getting everything unpacked and organized!

 And for some Sunday morning cuteness for your holiday Labor Day weekend......

She is adorable but is in to E.V.E.R.Y.T.H.I.N.G. these days! I am having to lock all cabinets because she is fast as lightning in undoing all of the organizing I had just finished! She is chewing on her fingers a lot these days because her top 2 molars are coming in and boy are they huge!!! You can ask her if her teeth hurt and she will say Yesssss!! in this high pitced taradactile voice (Just like when she says Nooooo!!), but after a few teething tablets, she is ready and good to go!
