Say "Cheese!"

Poor girl is tired of all the pictures! She has started saying "No!" and running from my camera! Braden is always running anyway, but if I get him to sit still long enough for a picture, he has this horrible trying to cooperate, but it's just not working out, posed smile. We got pics made Sunday for the church bulletin and my instructions to the photographer were "just try to get them both looking." She was just sure she could get them both looking AND smiling. After a few tries, she agreed with me- Just get them looking in the same direction. After all, it is just going on the church picture board for all to see!

Yes, Allison does wear clothes, but they were outside drying after she dumped a cup of water all over herself.

CAC Pre-K3 Graduation

Standing on 2 feet is overrated anyway.

Some song about "I'm a little star." They have now become glasses that he uses when he is not wearing his "contax" (can you tell he lives in a house with blind parents...?)

Very happy to accept his certificate!

His sweet Pre-K teacher, Mrs. Lelah

Principal of CAC elementary, Mrs. Cruz

Braden graduated from Pre-K 3 on May 25! I was SUPER nervous that he would get a little silly and show off in some way in front everyone, but for the most part, he did well! That is, with the exception of the shirt tucked out! He was all put together when I dropped him off and when he went up on stage, he looked slightly rag-bagish. Where on earth is that child's mother??

Didn't get the best pictures, partly because we were in the back due to an almost 2 year old that tags along with me, and partly because this woman kept shoving her big head in my pictures ( you can see her in the 1st three pics!)

Pretty Pretty Princess!

With Every New Hair that Grows...

THE BOWS WILL GET BIGGER!!!

Peek-a-Boo!

Pigtails!!!

Okay, not really, but kind of! Allison has graduated into bigger hairbows, but she found some of the baby ones and I decided to try to get some pigtails going! Needless to say, they didn't last long. I dream of a day...

Today we have just been "hanging out" as Braden says. Playing on the swingset and then taking a long walk around the subdivision to look at all the construction trucks- and there are a lot!

Under My Umbrella

**Disclaimers**

1. My daughter is wearing boy pj's. She does have girl ones, but the boy ones fit too, so what's wrong with a little pj hand me downs? USUALLY no one sees them anyway!

2. I realize that I will not win Mom of the Year award for this post. Normally I do not let my child play in the rain, but it had slacked off some, wasn't lightening, and it was only about 5 minutes. She did get dry clothes when she came in. Girl clothes at that.

After all the disclaimers, really the pics are self explanatory! I let her loose with an umbrella, that although small, was as big as she was! She thought she was totally big stuff! Going to be a rainy day, so maybe it will help our new grass, which is currently in a very sad state of affairs..
