My Little Dancin Queens

Again, Madison always manages to capture the cutest things when I am away. While I was at work on call Friday evening I received these videos of the girls. Kegan is obsessed with dancing and is getting ready for our Disney World trip watching her princess video. Truly dear thing, just can't help herself when she hears music. She just starts bopping like she has no control over it. It is so comical. If Truly hears any beat she will just stop what she is doing and get after it with her little dance. As for Kegan and her dancin, as you will see, the girl has moves. I don't know where she gets 'em. Not from us for sure. Get ready to laugh!

North Dallas YMCA kids tri

This past Sunday, my good friend Jill's boys Zach and Connor did their first triathlon. It was tough, but I think they will both be great if they continue to do them. There were 196 kids age 6-14 that raced that day. Madison's triathlon team sponsored it, so he was there to volunteer and me and the girls were there to cheer everyone on. Kegan does have her 1st real bike, so between that, her swimming and her running, she'll be ready next year. We found a great used bike at the bike store last week and couldn't pass it up. It is a little boy's bike and is lime green and black. Kegan really wanted the "pink one", but it was too big. Quick thinking mommy bought some princess stickers to decorate the bike with and some cool green nail polish. It is so important to accessorize your nails with your bike! We'll send pictures soon of her on it. She is still a little intimidated. It goes a lot faster than her tricycle.

Look, she is really getting blonde! Except for the dark ends on the long stragglers, Truly is finally becoming a blondie like her big sis. We were almost getting worried she would not live up to her name Truly Scrumptious!

This video is from the cross country camp. I was cleaning in the kitchen one morning and could here all this giggling and playing going on in the other room. I missed videoing the best of it, but here is a little sample.

1st Annual Beaver's Bend Cross Country Camp

Madison is turning a very new and different page in his life. As of July 23rd, he is turning in his general contractor hat for a coaching cap and a stay-at-home Daddy job. It is something that he has dreamed of doing for a while now and we are finally gonna take the plunge. While he has really enjoyed working for Harrison, Walker, Harper, it has just put him away from us too much, so we needed to find some way to take a step back and revamp. We lost the balance in our lives and are thinking this will be a great step in the right direction. Madison has been coaching an Ironhead teammate's daughter, Jordan, in cross country for the last year. Her dad, Ramsey, thought that Madison should spread his knowledge a little more and came up with the idea of a cross country camp in Beaver's Bend Oklahoma. July 12-15 was the 1st annual Beaver's Bend Cross Country Camp put on by Maddog Coaching Services (Madison's new coaching buisness). Ramsey owns two great rental cabins and we rented an extra one to house the 11 athletes, Ramsey and his wife, 2 parent volunteers and our family. We had a blast. Kegan was so proud to hang out with the big kids. The boys were so sweet with her and Truly, and the girls, would take Kegan with them every break they had. She spent most of her time at their cabin. Kegan even enjoyed participating in some of the workouts. She definitely kept me on my toes. She will be a runner like her Daddy for sure.
Ramsey, Madison and all the kids. Scout was the mascot. He was sporting his ear casts that Jordan decorated special for the camp.

These are just some pictures from me and the girls at home on one of my days off. We have sucha good time together. They really are so easy.....most of the time. I have to send a congrats out to my little angel Kegan who has finally mastered the potty. We still wear a diaper at night, but only because mommy is too lazy to deal with the possible accident, but occasionally we forget and don't have any accidents! yeah!
Who is that hiding behind that sippy cup?


It's me mommy!

Silly bedhead, jelly-face Kegan

This video is a little boring, but it is kind of funny to see how demanding Truly can be.
