Her first encounter with heels.
She looks almost exactly like Donovan in this picture!
Her first side pony...sort of. I wish she had the same amount of hair in the back and on the top. She is our mullet baby right now.
Donovan mid-dance move. You have to see this one in person to appreciate it, it's pretty much the definition of awesome.
Cute little cheesers.
Look at her teeth! She has 4 on top and 3 on the bottom...so cute!
Their favorite game to play with Daddy.
Caught in the act. The kid always has his finger up his nose.
They love each other :)
Donovan really wanted a picture with Corbin. He was a little annoyed with Addi when she kept trying to be in it. Don't worry, I got some pictures with just her, that kept her happy:)
Finally got one alone with his cousin. He's pretty good with Addi and the babies.
This is what Chamae likes to do while I'm trying to make dinner. She's either standing against the oven, or trying to climb up my legs.
That's about it. Our every day grind has been busy. I found a friend to run with in the morning so we get up and go at about 6:30 every morning with her dog. Afterwards I have to rush to get Donovan ready if Brad hasn't already before Lenna picks him up. Then I'm either trying to get errands run before we pick Donovan up from school, or watching Addi and Corbin. Chamae keeps me on my toes these days. She's not as independent as Donovan was. She likes to have someone to play with her and likes to be able to keep an eye on me. If I disappear from view, she gets a little upset. Donovan loves to play outside with his friend Alayna and thinks he can do whatever he pleases without telling me first. I'll admit, he gets that from me. I used to ride the bus home with my best friend in 6th grade and I wouldn't tell my parents. My friend's mom would get a call in the late evening making sure I was there before my mom would pick me up. I got in trouble for it quite a bit, but I still did it...even in high school...I'm probably going to pay dearly for that one when my kids are older. I didn't understand why my parents would get so upset...I get it now. Anyway, Brad is still super busy with college and club soccer. His college team is doing well. The region tournament is coming up in 2 weeks and he booked a suite for us to stay in while we're out there with him. I love going on the road with him, and Donovan loves it too. Brad was telling me about it last night, and Donovan got really excited and wanted to leave right away!

If your baby girl has hair then pinch whatever you can into whatever you can.. that is my motto :) Even if she has a mullet try doing two little pig tails at the bottom where she has more hair and put like a little clip in the top hair sweeped to the side or something. My girls were never independent either like Carter is they still want me to entertain them all time. The kids are looking as cute as ever
Fun! Colin loves to stay in hotels, although he's only done it twice that he can remember. He asks me if he can sleep at the hotel all the time. Chamae is super pretty. I think mullet babies are the best, personally. I'm getting really excited to see you in a few weeks! Huzzah!
Has Chamae taken any steps yet? I bet she's close. She is cute, with or without the ponytail! I don't think you should take all the blame for your child taking off without telling you...Brad was king at our house about that. He would even fall asleep in weird places and I'd be ready to call the police because I couldn't find him. Have fun on your trip with Brad. We are really excited to see you here too! Let me know if you need to ditch the kids with me to do wedding stuff I'd love it!
What goes around, comes around. Your mother must have been a real pill. I was a perfect child growing up and never heard that expression.
The side pony is fantastic! Ha! Donovan is good with the babies. Wish Addi would learn a little something from him...trouble!
