I want my Daddy back.

Charleigh is missing her Daddy, this is one of the weeks he has to be gone for more than just one night, and it kills her. Today the UPS man came to deliver a package and when he honked Charleigh screamed "My Daddy is home!" I told her that he wasn't. Then he knocked on the door and she screamed "seeeeee mama, he is home to see me." But to her disapointment it was just the UPS man delivering a package to Ben. So coloring a sign and taking a picture for him cheered her up. We hope they cheer you up too Ben, we miss and wub you.

Christmas Angel

Angel.....

..... stinker!

Cowgirls in Dresses

Charleigh kept wanting to go play in the barn on Thanksgiving, which she wasn't really dressed for. I finally gave in & said that she could as long as she did not get dirty .... you can see how well that went!

I Wub you.....

Charleigh says love "wub" I LOOOOOOVEEEEE hearing her say it. IT NEVER EVER GETS OLD. Here she is with Clementine putting her in a nice loving Choke hold. She was really giving her a hug in a rough Charleigh way.

"I CAN'T BREATH!!"

A busy day......

Playing with play-doh making animals and worms!

Daddy's little helper, always wanting to get involved.

Charleigh with Hartleigh. Charleigh thinks that every baby she sees in pictures is Hartleigh or Paxton. We were looking at our friends blog (Matt and Michelle) and she saw Jaxon and asked "What is Paxton doing?" I told her it wasn't Paxton, it was Jaxon, and she said "No??" in well you sure fooled me voice. Then she let out a sweet little sigh like she was confused.

Cowgirl Charleigh rides again. And again and again..........

Charleigh Still LOVES THE WATER! She still loves to take her baths, especially at Grandma's in her whirlpool tub. She will put her goggles on and "dive" under the water. She will put her toys that sink to the bottom in and then she will go under to find them. She can hold her breath for a very long time, which suprised me.

It always makes me and my mom laugh to see her under the water with her hair floating out, her lil' booty sticking up in the air and her eyes wide open even with the water seeping into her goggles.

Ben teaching Charleigh how to kick her legs in the water.

Ben was being silly and showing Charleigh how deep the water was when he was sitting down. He does not like this picture, but I think it is cute.

Charleigh was so excited about getting to the hotel room and swimming. When we got there the sign said it closed in 5 minutes, so we just pretended we did not see it and let Charleigh swim for an hour and a half!

Ben is such a wonderful daddy! Him and Charleigh always have fun together.

Charleigh kept wanting Ben to go under the water, so that is what he did!

Wearign down.

OUR LIL' MERMAID!

Going in.......

She isn't scared!

She is like a little fish!

And she is back up again!

Daddy's Helper

Ben was doing something on the tractor, and of course Charleigh had to help him!

Peace, Love Scooter Bug

Charleigh wants to ride every waking second. I want to ride Scooter Bug is a phrase that is we hear over and over and over again. My parents watched her last weekend and she was watching barrel racing which made her itch to ride. She had to have her hat, her chaps her boots and she has to do everything herself. She wants to carry the heavy bucket of grain, the halter etc....if she isn't riding a real horse she is riding around on a Fisher-Price horse or a bouncy horse and she always need reins!
