June has flown or dripped by?!

Keeping up with Brother.. hard to do, but she will do it!
oSlow and steady...
Can you tell Pink is her favorite color ?
Character marks... or clumsy going down the stairs at the soccer game.
FINALLY! learning how to ride her bike..
Neighborhood boys.. not exactly the safest way to ride.
Jay and Wyatt
Premier of CARS 2... could hardly stand it for weeks.. and finally the day came.

This week we celebrated Skeet's Birthday... HAPPY BIRTHDAY SKEET!
My homemade pie and the kids blowing out the candles ( ok, so Marie helped a little:))

Our favorite look.. sweaty boy.
Happy Birthday Locker... It makes me sad to see these three so grown up! Party girl... who else will wear a sequin dress to a gym in 110 heat... my princess Emily June. Some battles are not worth fighting.


Sweat has filled the Doss home this month. (We still have had no rain.. (since last September...) and it has been over 100 every day of this month.) I hate to say I feel like a bad mom as well. We start early in the morning, but by 11 we are inside until late afternoon. Which means more TV, movies, and sitting around. I try and be creative, but that means more messes with my children and they can turn what I think should be a fun, hour long project into a huge mess and done in 10 minutes. So is it worth it?! I need to be more creative! I feel "quiet and free time" develop their ability to think for themselves and use their own mind for creatively.. at least that is what I tell myself. Somehow the quiet time usually turns in too WWF at the Doss house. A small hint on the winner... is the same child who will do it while wearing a princess dress and her tiara or a sequin twirl dress. Such class.



We are headed to the Beach next month to see my bff Emily.. cannot wait. Hope to post some "cool" beach pictures! :)
