Some small, some big, some just funny~ all significant

Things happening at our house lately:
  1. Tessa got her first 2 teeth in the front on the bottom.
  2. Tessa has started crawling.
  3. Nora changes her name from "Nora Gomez" to "Lady Ga-Ga" (so she says~ Her real middle name is Frances).
  4. Olivia joins "futsal" (indoor soccer footskills class through Avon Fusion) & "Sprouts" (kids ministry at our church).
  5. Olivia just grows up (when did that happen?)! She is so helpful around the house with her sisters, the puppy, and with chores. She is getting older... (sigh) :)
  6. Nora calls marshmallows "smarshmellows".
  7. Tessa now growls, giggles out loud, and says "Da-Da".
  8. The puppy~ now a little over 3 pounds (she was only 1 pound when we got her) is still having pottie accidents in the house, but getting used to the whole family now (still liking to destroy Tessa's pacifiers though!).

Honor Roll Student


SO proud of my biggest girl who brought home 3 awards on Friday from the 1st Grade Awards Presentation. 1) Personal Best, 2) Perfect Attendance, 3) Honor Roll, AND a medal for having straight A's! I'm one P-R-O-U-D mama! :)

Trying to remember to fill in Olivia's "School Days" keepsake book for Olivia's school years that she got from her Nana.

Pretty in Pink!

Olivia & Nora, all dressed up in their new dresses from Granny, to go to church a couple Sunday's ago.
Look at those sweet faces...
