Well....no news on the tests today. I guess I will find out Monday..... Austin did great this morning getting his blood drawn from his arm. Gaga went back with him and he didn't cry...heck, he didn't even flinch!!!! He is such a tough little boy. Hayden did great on his xrays too. He is always good for doctors!! They love him because he doesn't cry or whine. He just sits still and lets them do their thing.

Tonight we had meet the teacher night. Austin's Kindergarten teacher is Mrs. Horak, she was Trae's 1st grade teacher. Honestly, I cannot remember Trae's teacher right now. She is pregnant and due Sept. 14th so Trae will have a sub for awhile. I am not happy about that but there isn't anything I can do about it. Austin was so excited and found his seat at his table and put his school supplies up. His first full day will be on Tuesday, Monday is an orientation for an hour and a half. Gaga watched Hayden so we could all go. Thanks, Gawgs!!!

We are watching the Cowboys play on TV right now. I just put Hayden to bed, he was so tired!!

Austin has a scrimmage tomorrow morning against the Razorbacks. This ought to be fun!!! Go doppy!!!

Doctor Appts.

Today was Austin's checkup and Hayden's checkup. Hayden looks great! Is doing more than he should at his age. He is in the 10% for height and weight so he is a little thing!!! He is growing but is just small. His chest kind of caves in on the sides and the doctor said she wants to have an x-ray done tomorrow to make sure there is nothing wrong. She said it could be a "pigeon chest" or something else. Most likely it isn't anything serious but could be an enlarged heart, etc.... Please pray it is nothing!
Austin is doing good, growing too! His weight gain still concerns us both and she is having more bloodwork done. I will take him to the lab tomorrow to do that! He is more active yet the weight isn't falling off yet. Also......Austin has a heart murmur and she referred me to a cardiologist to have that checked out. She has heard it on and off since he was born and thinks we better check it out just to make sure everything is working correctly. So, I have a busy day tomorrow. Hopefully, I can get into the cardiologist soon too. Please pray that he too is ok.
School starts Monday!

This is a picture of Trae and his best friend Ryan.

Football practice was very nice today! It actually got pretty cool by 7:30 PM. Both of the boys are doing great and practicing hard. Meet the teacher night is this Friday so we will find out who the boys teachers will be and meet them. Austin is very excited! I am ready for school to start again too. That's it for tonight, I will update more tomorrow!

Ok, I am sooooooooo tired! This morning Austin had football practice, then we had Emmi's party, then Trae's football practice.... so sleepy now! Trae threw passes with Drew Pearson this morning at Austin's practice. Drew Pearson, the Dallas Cowboys Hall of Famer!!!! His grandson plays on Austin's team. Such a nice guy to do that with Trae.
Emmi's party turned out so well! Ash and Steve did a GREAT job! Funny thing is it reminded me of Hayden's party :) Emmi got some really nice gifts and I got to fix her hair for her party. She was so good and looked adorable.
Trae had his first day of full pads and he did great! No tears for Trae!

Friday was Mohawk Madness!!

With 6 boys at my house they decided they all wanted to be in a rock band. They wanted me to give them all mohawk's!! Trae remembered we had blue hair spray stuff and so they all got blue mohawk's for fun! Of course Hayden did NOT participate!! They all had so much fun together and Kasen and Cameron want to live here now. We made cookies, jumped on the trampoline, played football, ate pizza and had alot of fun. Enjoy the pics! I know I had a good laugh....

Hi there! We are very busy these days but we are enjoying it. Trae had practice last night and did very well. Saturday will be the first day in all pads and they are going to start hitting each other. The coach said to expect some tears mostly out of fear, not hurt.
Tomorrow is the big day for Emmi Reeser. Austin has practice that morning and Trae has it that evening. I cannot believe Emmi is one too now! Time sure does fly....
Today we have my best friends 3 boys over. Her boys and my boys are best friends, almost brothers. They call each other brothers! We had them over yesterday too. I love all of them. Next week my boys will go over there to play.
Maddie (our puppy) was shaved yesterday at the groomers. It is just so hot here we thought she would be cooler for the summer.
Hayden just hit himself with a toy so I better go!

I am so tired today! I cleaned and re-arranged some furniture today. The boys are all good. Hayden is running now.... Trae and Austin are having fun with football. Practices are a little crazy, 6 days a week! I am about to finish doing some dishes and fold some clothes so I can go to bed.

Austin's first day of football practice

Today was the first day of football practice. I took Austin and Paul took Trae because they were at the same time. Austin did great! He tried so hard and really enjoyed it. Hayden just wanted to walk around everywhere. Paul said Trae did great and is still the fastest on the team. Trae really wants to be quarterback again but each season the kids will be evaluated on their skills and will be placed where the coach thinks they are best for the team.
The boys got their haircut yesterday so I will have to get some pics of that for you! Austin cut his shorter and spikes it at the front. Trae wants his longer like Zac Efron from High School Musical so his is longer...you will have to see. Hayden is still working on getting hair!!
The boys wanted to go see Gaga tonight and ended up spending the night with her. Gaga said she was bored anyways. They love their Gaga!! Hayden stayed home with Daddy while I went to the grocery store. I am about to go to bed!! I am so tired....
