Soccer

Bailey has been playing soccer the month of September. They play every Saturday and just learn the basics of soccer. Next year she will be able to play on a team which I think she will like much more. She really seemed to like playing as long as she was moving and doing something. She did not like waiting in line to do the next thing. I will have to say these soccer teachers have a ton of patience to work with that many 4 year olds at a time!

Red Light Green Light soccer. This was Bailey's favorite game!!

Bailey was so excited the she got a trophy. She showed it to everyone that day:)

We Miss PaPa!!

As I have posted in an earlier blog, my parents are in the process of moving to Houston. My Dad is already there while my mom is still here selling the house. Bailey and Ben both miss their Papa. So Dad this is for you!! Bailey was talking about you this morning so we made you a picture and thought we would put them on our blog. We Love You!!

New Friend!!

Bailey has been in school for 2 weeks now and on Friday she got in the car and informed me that she now has a boyfriend! His name is Isaiah and he wants her to spend the night because he has bunk beds:) I told Bailey that I didn't know Isaiah's mommy so I didn't think we could go play at his house. Her exact words were, "that's ok mommy we can go to his house and you can tell his mommy your name and then you will know her!". They have this all figured out! I thought this just might be a one day thing but she talked about him all weekend. When I picked her up from school on Monday her first words were, "I got to play tag with Isaiah today mommy, he is so much fun!" Daddy's face was priceless when she told him that she had a boyfriend. We are trying to get her to just say her friend Isaiah, but I will have to admit it is really cute when she talks about him. I have gotten to school early a couple of days so I can see her play on the playground and he is a cute little boy and they play very well together.

Bailey really seems to like school. She gets excited on the days that she gets to go and really wants John and I to just drop her off and not walk in because she can do it by herself. She is growing up too fast!!

First day of Pre-K

Bailey started Pre-School today. She was so excited that she stayed up until 11 last night (Dad put her to bed at 8:30) At 10 she came in with another backpack full of her stuffed animals and said she was ready to go. I put her back to bed and told her she had to sleep first. Then at 4 am she came to wake me up to tell me it was time for school. I sure hope she is this excited to go to school five years from now! Once we got in the car she told me she did not need me to come in and that she could find her class herself. I don't know where she gets this independent streak from??

Fun with Friends at the zoo!

On Friday several Moms at camp decided to take the kids to the zoo before school started. The kids all had a great time. The zoo was very hot but there was hardly anyone there. I left Ben with John's parents and just had a special day with Bailey. She really loved it and liked having Mommy all to herself.

Bailey and Nate were so cute at the zoo. They held hands the whole time we were there and had a great time!

Belle

This past weekend we kept my Mom's dog Belle. Bailey really loves Belle and loves to babysit her. This time when MaMa dropped Belle off she told Bailey that Belle had been sick and would not be able to play. Bailey was so good with Belle. She wrapped her in her special pink blanket and read her stories in bed. She was a good little nurse!

Our Little Photographer!

Bailey has discovered that she loves to take pictures. I think Santa might have to bring her one for Christmas. She loves to take our camera all over and take pictures of things around the house. She is getting pretty good at this..so I thought I would share some of them with you. All of these photos where taken by Bailey!

Nathan and Teresa who are friend who live at the Ranch.
