Summer Time!

Its been a while since I've written, but my girls are just as great as ever! We recently bought a bike trailer so I cart the girls around as I train with Don for the 150 mile Pedal to the Point! Sarah loves the "little car" however Molly just screams and screams! Molly's first birthday is fast approaching (June 25) and I cannot believe how fast time flies! Seeing as she is my last baby I feel like I can never hold her enough. I'm even having a hard time thinking about taking her bottle away...that's right mom - strict mom Beckie is having a hard time sticking to her plans! With Sarah, it was easy to take away formula and bottles at age one. Molly is so much more attached to that bottle than Sarah ever was, so I'm having a hard time! Sarah is pretty much potty trained...with the occasional slip up when she says "I'm so sorry about that." Molly's little personality is starting to pop - she is one feisty little thing! And boy does she know how to work a scream to get what she wants! Oh the joys of parenthood. I am cherishing each scream and potty accident because I know soon they'll be leaving for college...

Sarah's last day of school!


My baby is growing up so fast! Tuesday was Sarah's last day of preschool this year. She is so excited to be experiencing her first summer vacation! I don't think she even realizes she won't be going back to school for a while! I just can't believe how quickly she is growing. Preschool has been an excellent experience for her - she loves playing with her friends, singing the ABC's, and of course experimenting with shaving cream! Although we hit a few bumps during the school year (She didn't want to play with a certain somebody because she was "ugly..."), Sarah seems to have grown for the better! We're excited for summer!!

What's going on?!

Well, another day with sick kiddos. My girls were dealing with 102' temperatures last night. Molly has those darn snotty sneezes and Sarah just looks at me and cries saying "Mommy, I don't feel good." It really is times like these were you start to doubt your own judgement in how to help your kids! Don was holding Molly last night and she was just screaming uncontrollably and then the next second he experienced an exorcism style projectile vomit shower. Today they both woke up without fevers, but still cranky and snotty! We're headed to the doctor tomorrow to hopefully end this once and for all! I feel like my poor darlings are sick every other day!

Here's the most recent picture of us Walton girls.
I'm noticing Daddy isn't making any of these pictures...
He isn't one to sit and pose like we are!
We do love our daddy though!
This is Molly's camera smile...


Everytime the camera comes out, this is her "Cheese!" face!

I find it hilarious! :)

For any of you who aren't familiar with my first born child...Bronson. Here he is somewhat adjusting to Molly's intrusive ways. Weighing in at 112 lbs, he's definitely my biggest baby, but he is a softy with the girls. He's even developed an ability to share all of his toys with Molly. I assume chewy rubber toys are good for teething babies!
I am amazed at how well he reacts to the constant tail pulling, nose stomping, ear pulling attacks he gets from Sarah and Molly. He's such a good boy! Sarah and Molly just love their big bro :)

The Next American Idol


I'm sorry to say it, but I already know who the next American Idol is! Sarah just loves watching the "singing" show and requests it every night of the week! She loves to dance to the music (with her eyes closed and arms extended) and instructs mommy and daddy to "Clap guys, use your manners!" Can't wait for the big paychecks to start arriving...
