Calista's Chin-Up's

Here's Calista doing pull-up's on the tree in our front yard; the one she's always climbing. She actually did 4 of them but I missed the first one.

The Girls This Morning...





My camera kept fogging up... lol

And yes, Ursula has yet another fever blister... hate those things! I feel badly for her because both me and Jeremy get them... thankfully, Calista isn't cursed with them.

I bought this pink bat yesterday (on clearance for $7).
Ursula is posing like that because she said she's a trophy... ha ha ha



Upclose & Personal




Just a couple of pictures I had taken.
Keep in mind that my camera's flash no longer works... so, I have to take pics outside and the focusing part is weird too without a flash.
Sometimes I can envision what she'll look like as a teen or adult.

School Started Aug. 10th


Awww, can you feel the love? hehehe
There's a haze on some of the pics due to the fogginess of my camera's lens... going from a nice, cool 70 degrees inside the house to a muggy, hot 90something degrees outside.

I kept wiping it off.... but, it was resistant to my attempts :D

ANYWAYS... :)

Here's my girls before going to school on the first day: I drove them... met their teachers, filled out all the stuff they give ya...


Its funny how they do things here because Calista's classmates are basically the same ones she's had since kindergarten! They like to keep them together... I guess for familiarity.

Calista was pretty hyped up about going back to school; so, that was good to see... instead of dragging her feet or pouting about it. I know I was always excited to start a new school year back in my youth.


Ursula, well, she was cool about it too. When I walked her to her class, no one else was there yet, so we stayed outside... well, there's toys outside, so she and Wyatt started playing. Wyatt grabbed a stroller and pushed it up and down the ramp.

Once Ursula's teacher showed up, we went inside the classroom. Ursula didn't stay next to me very long... she was way too busy investigating all the toys there and next thing you knew, she was playing... with what? Babies, naturally! LOL



















And here they are, getting off the bus... Ursula's very first bus ride! :D I had asked her before I left that day if she wanted me to pick her up or for the bus to bring her home, she told me, 'bus' :D Of course... I knew that would be her answer. Calista was the same way... I had even went to pick her from school on her first day of Kindergarten and she nearly threw a fit to ride the bus... so, I let her. I learned from that and asked Ursula before leaving :D lol

Pretty But Dirty Face... LOL


Its funny how the camera will pick up things you hadn't noticed or thought it wasn't so bad... like... ummm.... like how dirty Ursula's face is in these pictures! LOL

What sucked is how good they came out! I mean, I guess I could photoshop them but...

She really didn't look THAT dirty when I was taking these pictures! LOL She had been playing outside and of
course, she doesn't care how dirty she
gets :)


Of course, as always, click on the pictures to see them bigger.



This last picture to the left, with her big smile (real smile) reminds me so much of her Paw-Paw Nathan (Jeremy's dad). I think she has his face shape (Jeremy's too). She definitely has their chin; you can feel the edges of it... I know this because a while back, Nathan was showing me how that was a family trait and her chin feels just like his.

Calista in July

Here's Calista in front of my little flower garden :D






These two picture with her hair in her face were totally her poses... LOL




















She doesn't really look very happy in this picture to the bottom right... guess she wasn't up to taking pics... I don't know... I didn't force her. I asked her and she complied.






Pretty Dresses

The reason for the pictures of Ursula in these two pretty dresses? Well, because she's outgrown them and was having a hard time letting them go. So, I suggested that she put them on, get all pretty-ed up, take pictures and then, she'll always have those pictures. She agreed and I was able to pass the dresses down to her cousin, Victoria :)























LOL at her hair in these pics... yep, there's fake hair in there :) hehehe

Pre-K

Well, I just got a phone call from school and Ursula's going to pre-k this year! I have to go to the school tomorrow for a little meeting and get her supply list.

Jeremy and I were just discussing this last night! I told him that I was waiting for the school to contact me in regards to whether or not she will be attending. He had suggested that I call either the school itself or the school board because we don't have that much time before school starts! Starts on the 10th!

So, now it'll be just Wyatt and me during the day... and now I'll have 2 girls with homework! Well, I'm assuming Ursula'll have homework... she may not.

And I'll have to buy not only 2 lists of supplies but some uniforms as well. We'll probably go do that this weekend.

Ursula's excited :)

I'm going to start waking them up around 6am to get them used to it (again)... and I think that'll help them get to sleep earlier as well because the reverse isn't working (making them go to bed early).
