Six Flags Trip

As a end of summer trip, I decided to take my kids to Six Flags to see the Raven concert. My very good friend, Donna, her husband, David, and their daughter, Kendalyn (who happens to be Kailee's best friend) went with us. We all had a blast! I think the best part of the trip was getting to introduce my friends to my grandparents!

Getting on Tony Hawk's Big Spin

After the car came to a stop, Ty says,"Mommy, I wish I hadn't said I wanted to ride this ride!"

Raven Concert

We only stayed for the first couple of songs. It was mostly pre-recorded and when we could hear her, she was screaming for everyone to "Make sum noise!" After the 10th time of hearing that, the kids decided to go ride more rides. Thank goodness!

At the top of the Observation Tower. I stay close to the inside. I'm a chicken!

End of the day...FINALLY!

First day of school and a new baby, too!

Today was the first day of school and Ty's first day of Pre-K. He handled better than I did. I tried not to show him, but I cried a lot after we left. This is my last baby I had at home! My wondeful hubby took me to breakfast to try to cheer me up!. How sweet!



This his teacher Shannon Russell. I'm blessed to have friends that are my children's teachers!

Lane and Page also had their third baby girl today! Gigi (my cousin) kept Page's blog updated. Check it out at http://theboydgang.blogspot.com/ !

Impatiently waiting to see the baby!

Emma Claire Boyd was born at 2:27 pm. She weighed 7lbs. 15oz. I was told she is 21in long but I saw 20 1/2in on Gigi's blog. Didn't look at the hospital so I'll ask later. She has more hair than the girls did and it is redder, too. She is definitely BIG!

Inspecting Emma Claire!

Tyler's Week

Tyler is my homebody. He wants to go, but when it gets dark, it's time to come home. Needless to say, he was very happy to get back to the house after going to Grandmoma's. My mom has been great with coming and getting him in the mornings so I can sleep after work. Anyways, Rachael, a college student from church, came to keep him at the house so he could stay home Thursday and Friday. He loved it! She took him to the park which is top on his list of things to do. He loved it so much that I have enlisted her to come two days next week before she leaves for school.

So, Ty gets left out of somethings because he is a wild child. I am told that he has a hard time staying out of things. Imagine that! A four yr old boy doing that! Anyways, Billy and I took Ty to the zoo today. He loves the zoo and can even tell you how to get there. His favorite is the alligator which he calls a crocodile. I really don't know why since you very rarely see him. He is usually under the water. Today was a one of those rare treats! Not only was he above the water, but he actually swam around. It made Ty's day! Here are the few pics I took before my camera died. (It was a last minute decision to go.) Enjoy!
