Cheyenne and Audrey, New Best Friends..........

Audrey has had a great love for the horses for quite some time, as long as they kept there distance. It has been the only thing where I have seen timidness with her, she will talk and talk about ponies and horses and she will stand outside the pen and just want to so badly be in with them but once in she would start to shake.

Things changed over the weekend, she got it into her head that she wanted to ride and that is just what she did. I put her on Cheyenne and she was a natural, she doesn't want anyone to hold onto her, she put her feet right in the stirrups and that was it, she was on her way. We have created a monster, as this is all she is talking about and all she wants to do. So I have been saddling that pony everyday for her, and I have never seen her happier. Ama (my mom) came over one day while Audrey was riding and she said why don't we try trotting, so she ran beside Audrey to catch her if she started to fall and we began to trot. Audrey got the BIGGEST smile on her face, and when we stopped she said "again momma"!!

A natural!!!

This is what we look like when we have to get off!

Priceless, this girl can through a fit!

This is when I was unsaddling Cheyenne.All fear to NO FEAR, in one day!

Speak No Evil, See No Evil, Hear No Evil....

Random Audrey........

I have a ton of random pictures of Audrey.

She has such a unique style and corky attitude that I always have fun things to photograph! One of Audrey's Unique outfits.

Her brothers shirt paired with cowboy boots and sunglasses!
Taking a rest!!
Audrey is ALWAYS in the flower pots, even though she gets in trouble every time!

Gray hair moment 200,001 for me, Audrey felt she needed a higher view for watching t.v.
Another clothing creation, notice the beautiful headband.

Tour De Middle School....

We like to go to Morgan Middle School's track to ride bikes. This particular day we asked my sister and her kids to come with us, and all the kids had a lot of fun. I love bike riding days, the kids just go and go, and by the time we are done we have tired kiddos.

Braiden has been riding a bike without training wheels for a little over a year, but he finally got tall enough to ride his "big" boy bike. He still is a few inches to short to touch the ground if he has to stop, so normally he just bails to the side if he wants to get off.

Yes, this picture is Braiden "jumping" the wheelchair ramp. He wanted to do it so bad but thankfully he has a little more self preservation than his siblings, because he tried it probably 15 times before he actually went over it. He would get right up to the end and than stop, until I told him, if he is going to do it he just needs to do it. I know, mothering skills of the year, but I want him to do what he sets out to do, and as much as I didn't love the idea of him jumping things and possible breaking his neck, he set his mind to do it.

Trevor, always trying to outdo his brother!

This was his idea for a jump, there was no thought involved for him only a ready, set, go! He jumped it too, the only problem he had was his bike wasn't big enough to clear, so the back wheel caught the edge, and lets just say Trevor smacked his "boy parts". Poor kid, but I doubt that will stop him!

Cousin Tyce, looking so cute on his trike!

How many Kids do I have again?

Picasso's in the making.....

We painted the other day, and it amazes me to watch each child with their different personalities and the different developmental stages.

Braiden has started to want to paint/color in the lines (unless he is in a hurry and just wants to finish), and he tries to accurately match the color with what color it might be in real life.

My dear Trevor, cracks me up, as much as he wanted to paint, this was not a fun project for him or me. He would get so frustrated at his paint brush because it would paint in "the wrong place" or his brush would mix the colors, which is a LARGE no-no to Trevor. He went through 4 pages and was mad at each. The last picture was so funny, because he had so much paint on his brush that it soaked the page to where it would ripe easily, so he was painting and it of course ripped, and no joke he started to scream "It is CRAPPED!!! Just a big CRAP!!!"

Okay, so the word "crap" is not a word that I want to hear from my almost 4 year old, but after a lot of questions I figured out he was saying, it was cracked, just a big crack. He makes me laugh!! Audrey Before....Audrey After!!

Need I say more, she had a lot of fun!!!

Fashion 101 with Audrey....

Like I have stated multiple times, Audrey has a unique sense of style. Here was one of her newest outfits need to say more!
She was actually upset when I told her we couldn't go out like that. I would have let her wear it had she compromised and put on a shirt, but we had to have a VARY LARGE fit because she was adamant she didn't need/want one!
