First Steps

Rex started taking steps on the 8th of September- by the end of the week he is in full gear- he is quick and likes to carry everything from pots and pans to toys while cruizing around the house.

1st dance class

 She has wanting to go to dance class like her big sissies for a long, long, time- today was finally her day. She could hardly wait- of course she didn't make a peep and was a quiet little mouse the entire class- but inside she was hip hip hooraying like crazy!

 She didn't want to take off her dance bag- the teacher finally got her to give it up.

13 candles

It was a happy,simple day of transition from being a "kid" to a teenager. Austin decided to forego the "friend" party this year. Just our little keller klan celebrated our favorite big brother Austin and all he is and does for our family. He woke up to a room full of balloons. Dad made him french toast topped with vanilla icecream. Austin's dinner request was meatball sandwhiches with pepperjack cheese and soda pop - such an easy boy to please. I am so thankful this sweet, strong, incredible spirit blessed me with the gift of motherhood 13 years ago. He is fun, loving,  a wonderful example, good with his siblings, smart, happy, energetic, kind, and my very favorite teenager in the entire world. I am so proud of you and love you buckets and buckets Austin. Happy 13th birthday my official teenager.

No Batteries Required

Lily was going through some of my old things and came across my "pound purry" cat from my childhood. She asked if she could have it- on the way home I saw her carefully inspecting it. I knew what she was looking for- finally I heard her say "So what do you do little kitty?" Nothing- our toys didn't have all the bells, whistles, ringers, and computers like toys do now. Everything didn't used to take batteries- they used to run on one type of energy called Imagination  .......

 

 

 

Oliver's little hands were wet and he couldn't get them to snap so he came to me worried and informed me that his hands had run out of batteries because they couldn't snap!

Teacher Gifts

Let's kick this year off with a splash- love upcycling things to bring a little sunshine to someone else. We always try and give the teachers a little something the first day of school
