AWANA Award Night

Tonight, was award night and this little girl recited a verse. See the video below.

My Week in Photos

Dakota has had a better week, much better than last week. She is officially weaned and happy as a clam. I'm not gonna lie, I kind of miss breastfeeding, but at the same time I'm enjoying my freedom of not having a baby latched to me. I still feel like Dakota and I have a strong bond, but I know now, that her relationship with Daddy will really start to blossom. I feel like she's been all mine for 17 months and now, I get to share her. Does that sound weird? I think other mom's know what I'm talking about.

Sometimes, Chey lets Dakota get away with too much. And as you see here, sometimes, Dakota likes to push her limits. She's like, "How much can I get away with this time?"

We are still taking Chey to AWANA every week. This Wednesday was family game night and a special focus on being thankful.

Thankful leaves. Makenna wrote "friend Chey" on her leaf. How sweet is that????


Last week, the girls and I woke at 4:30 am, in order to get Trey to his 6 am surgery.

The early wake-up call didn't phase miss thang.

When did this happen? Chilled pet food at Target...

Awana -- Awards Night (Video)

I'm so proud of Cheyenne, she completed her first year of Awana.

She recited the passage:
Jesus said, "Friends, your sins are forgiven."
An added bonus was having Nanaw in town. She made it just in time to see the awards ceremony.

Awana Crazy Hair Night

I forgot it was crazy hair night at church, (for Cheyenne). By the time I realized, I was already in route...so, I improvised.
High pony-tail
Reposition bow
Headband (the one I wore all day)
AND TA-DA!

Speaking of hair, I'm in a -- "I'm growing my bangs out phase." Talk about the shortest lived hair trend that ever was...Haha! I like(d) them. I might cut them again, but for now -- I'm all about the side sweep/low maintence!

Awanas Family Pumpkin Night

Cheyenne is participating in Awanas, Cubbies. This is her first year and she loves it! She goes once a week. She sings songs, does crafts, and learns bible versus. I love watching her grow spiritually. Hearing her sing praises to Jesus in her squeaky voice, is precious.

Last night, was family pumpkin night. We had so much fun!
