Picture Day at Preschool

We have school pictures today so Mommy made us practice this morning smiling for the camera. Mommy was so so surprised that we actually held hands and smiled when she asked us to. She was trying to take the picture so fast because she did not want to miss the moment. She said it was absolutely adorable.

Hair Cut Time

We are going to have school pictures tomorrow so Mommy decided we needed hair cuts . Mommy took me (Oaxie) and Daddy took Bin. Mrs. Kelly cuts Mommy's hair so she is going to cut mine too. I had lots of fun, Bin missed out!:)

Finally back to blogging!

Back of the house


Our little Red Barn

Well, I finally made it back on line. It has taken forever for us to get the internet out here in the country! I never realized how different things are once you move out of the city in regards to cable, trash, electric, internet!!! A lot has been happening since the beginning of September. We moved, Bin and Oaxie started preschool, I have quit working every weekend and am able to work during the week to be with Jon and the kids more, Bin and Oaxie have moved into toddler beds, AND they both are finally taking interest in using the potty!! Yes, even Bin who we are still not sure about will sit and tee tee and poo poo on the potty, very exciting!! Now, don't get me wrong they do not do it on a regular basis but atleast they are starting to make an effort! They work on it at school too which helps. Mrs. Kathy, their teacher, is very good with Bin and makes him sit on the potty like all the other kiddos during potty time.
Both Bin and Oaxie (and me too) have all been sick twice since school has started! Yuck! I figured this would happen, but not this fast!! Just a few colds...nothing serious.
KEEP SCROLLING DOWN, I PUT A BUNCH MORE PICTURES BELOW THIS POST!!!

First day in the house

Floors are perfect for riding, at least until the
furniture showed up!


Sweet baby boy


Watching as Daddy drops off another load of stuff!


No table yet, so we had to eat at the bar!

First day of school

Waking up early for our first day of school!



Bin not sure what to think about all the kids


Oaxie had no problems,
she went straight for the
toys!


Our first refrigerator art work! However, Oaxie
pulled the eyes off hers before we could get it up
for display!

The first day of preschool was very exciting for the kids and very strange for me. Bin was a little hesitant at first because there were a few kids crying hysterically and that upset him. Oaxie did not even turn around to see us leave. She is so independent. The director of the school came and met with me to let me know that she was up to speed on everything regarding Bin and had replaced all the toys and first aid supplies to latex free. She is great and so is their teacher. After Jon and I left he asked me what I was going to do by myself for the day and I really was not sure! I had not had very many days during the week all by myself since Bin and Oaxie were born. I went and got myself some coffee and went back to the house to start unpacking more stuff. I know real exciting.

On our daily walk down to get the mail with
Granddaddy and Daddy


Anna and Abe love it here. They have 25 acres to roam and they are literally in "dog heaven". I only wish Amos was still with us. He would have been so happy here! Sweet Anna our golden retriever is so old. She is half deaf and blind and accidently got lost a few weeks ago. The neighbor boys went out on their motorcycles to look for her and found her in a pasture a few miles away just sitting there all by herself. Poor baby. She has not left the back yard since!

Country Folk Now!!!

Well it is true...we are officially country folk! We have moved to a great new home with lots of land! We are so excited. Bin and Oaxie love it. I will put up new pictures once I can get stuff around here organized. Bin and Oaxie started preschool last week and seem to be having a good time. They are the only ones in the class that never cry when we leave or pick them up. They have been bringing home lots of neat art work and we are happy that they like it. Once I get things in order around the new house I will get you all updated on what has been going on!
