COWGIRLS

THEY RIDE THESE PONIES A MILLION MILES! THEY HAVE RACES, BARREL RACES, SHOWS, THEY GROOM THEM AND PUT THEM TO BED IN THIER BEDS. CHARLEIGH IS CONSTANTLY TRYING TO TELL CLEMENTINE WHAT ACTIVITY THEY WILL BE DOING, FOR HOW LONG, HOW TO RIDE HER OWN STICK HORSE ETC...

AND SHE BITES THE DUST

Nap Time

It was time for Charleigh's nap, and of course she was restless. I kept reminding her it was nap time, blah blah blah. It got quiet, I thought she had finally gave it up, when I went in the room to check on her 20 minutes later this is what I found. She had gotten her dry wipe ABC book to draw on while she fell asleep it must have been WILD FUN cause this is how she ended up.

These are from Ben's Birthday at the Washington Fair and Bullriding off of my mom's Camera.

First thing in the morning, Charleigh loves to hold her baby sister. (well after cereal and a few cartoons)

Then Charleigh wanted in the picture with them. She really likes to have her picture taken when I am not asking her to. If I want a picture of her she is hit or miss, sometimes she eats it up and acts like a real ham and other times she sees me with my camera and says "please Mom no pictures." I guess I might have burnt her out.

Sisters.....

The Penrose kids....


July getting ready to hurl......look closely at his mouth. It was enough to cover him and Kyren. Photo shoot over!

Misson Impossible 2

Getting 5 kids dressed....making them all look in the same direction, all smile, open eyes, keep their tongues in their mouths, all at the same time NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN! These are what you get.

ALL OF THE KIDS..

Time with Cousins..

After July was born Charity, Kyren, Clementine and July came to my parents to stay 4 days. It was right before I had to go back to work from maternity leave. We lived it up and enjoyed every minute with all of us together. Charleigh and Clementine have learned to play together and share so well. Kyren is such a good big brother and cousin, he is constantly making sure the little ones are happy.

With her Daddy..
