Sports!!

It's fall, and we are busy with sports.  We are going to Razorback football games when we can or watching them on tv.  Eston's playing his second season of soccer.  We have a game every Saturday morning and practice on Monday evenings.  The season is soon coming to a close though.  I've helped coach this season, and it's been really fun.  Eston has also started watching some NFL football on tv occasionally with Travis. He is really trying to learn the rules.  He knows when he sees that yellow flag that someone has done something wrong, he says.   Here are the kids sporting their NFL attire! My mom and Corey went to a Cowboys game a few weeks ago.

Anna and Eston driving the race car cart at Lowe's. 

 They like to race around our kitchen into the living room and into the office.  It makes a complete circle and it's all hardwood floor for the wheels to go fast on!

Travis reading a book to Anna with Eston looking on.

I first thought a carrot exploded when Miss Diana sent me this picture. No, Anna is painting! 

Being 1 wears you out!!

Anna is growing!  And walking!  Sometimes running!  And screaming (if you don't get her what she wants)!  And smiling! And loving it when you read her books! And only drinking milk from her sippy cups (refuses juice...occasionally drinks some water)!  And loving to play with her big brother...most of the time taking his toys or messing up his train tracks or taking apart his trailer from the truck!  And giving kisses!  And signing "more" all the time! And waving! And cutting tooth #9, 10, 11, and 12 at the same time! And acting like she's the biggest, tallest, most important member of the family (why of course)!  All this wears a girl out! 

She had to have several breathing treatments this spring after her bout with pneumonia.  Here is Travis givng her one as she is sleeping through it.  She got so used to them, that she wouldn't cry or throw a fit when we put the mask to her face.

Don't worry Miss Diana, this picture was not taken recently.  We have no bottles in the house.  We finally broke her of her dependancy by 13 months.  She loves her sippy cups and signs "more" and "milk".  She doesn't say words much.  Just an "eh" and a point to whatever she wants usually gets her point across.  She's wearing 24 month clothes and weighs 28 lbs at 15 months old.
