Clara at the office.

Clara decided to kick back at her desk. The best part was the big sigh that she let out everytime she put her feet up.

Aidan 1st Soccer Game

Aidan started soccer last Saturday, Sept 11th. It was an extremely hot day and our team was not quite prepared for the heat. The kids played great, but they were hot and tired when the game was over.

"It's so hot!!!"

i have no idea what he was doing...

Nice form Aidan!!

Clara's Clouds

A conversation with Clara on the way home one afternoon. This was recorded by holding the camera up over my shoulder; I was lucky to get any video. I was just hoping to catch the conversation.

Hot hot hot wings

A: I'm gonna let mine cool down some more

Me: they don't get less spicy when they cool down

A: really?! That is so unfair??

Cheese

So, I was trying to get them to lean in together but the more Clara leaned in towards Lexi, the more Lexi leaned away. Too funny. They are having a blast.

The second picture... I have no idea :)

It's too hot!

Whenever Clara does not want me or James to do something, she tells us "no, it's too hot!"

Me: Let's go to bed

C: No, it's too hot!

Me: No, I can't sit down and watch Bolt I need to do laundry

C: No, it's too hot!

Me: Clara, go potty!

C: No, it's too hot!!

I guess I've been complaining about the weather a little too much lately!

Devlin at the track last weekend

Goofing off at home

Some pics of me and Aidan goofing off at home one afternoon. These are from the day that we put our new DVD shelf together.

On this particular night, Clara HAD to change into her dress becuase someone mentioned the word "dance". She put this on and spun around for us to the opening credits of Little Einsteins. Afterwards, we went out side and the tutu did not slow her down one bit. She put her helmet on and pushed her four wheeler around in her pretty butterfly shoes.

She was quite a sight and barely slowed down long enough for me to get a picture.

Misc photos

I downloaded pics off my camera... for the 2nd or 3rd time this year... and had just a few random ones that didn't fit into other posts.

Love this picture of Clara. Thse are her Mickey Mouse binoculars. It amazes me that she has changed so much in the past year.

Aidan reading all about dinosaurs.

Just like this funny closeup of Aidan.

James fixing our couch! Woo hoo - no more sinking to the bottom when you sit in a certain spot.

Hair!

Clara has a little "beauty shop" chair that she pulls out from time to time. One of those times, Aidan tried sitting in it and much to Clara's delight, fit! She did his hair for him, complete with barrettes and clips. He was a good sport and sat through it without complaint.
