Quarterly Top 5

Quarterly Top 5 photos. SO HARD! To go through April, May and June photos and decide my five favorite...really hard. I think I have it narrowed down to these...I think. :)

(Wait...I just realized there are 10 more days of June) This might change!

Easter 2012: Kyla saying, "You guys go over there and look happy....I'll go over here and look sad." 

Our trip to the Gum Wall downtown Seattle.  I love Heidi's expression. 

My little McGee and her Binky. And her pretty eyes.

Right after this Pearson swallowed part of a dandelion and was not happy about it. 

She looks so grown up.

She’s five today.

Little Hosers Coefee.

Can’t even believe it.

She’s five.

The girl who once said “MacaNoni” instead of macaroni and “Gehl” instead of girl no longer does.

She does say “Will you be back in a little WILD?” or “Can we watch a show in a little WILD?”

I don’t correct her.

She’s our little athlete. The girl can run. Fast.

She just rode her bike without training wheels for the first time two days ago.

She still loves her J.J. and blankies but has started not to notice if they are missing for a night.

SAD.

She’s a great little sister and a great big sister too.

She’s highly concerned about owies and illnesses right now.

She’s going to be in Kindergarten. She’s going to love it.

She can fall asleep in a second just like her dad.

She loves tiny treasures, tiny trinkets and all things tiny.

She’s still our most adventures eater. Loves sauces and dressings of all kinds.

She’s a snuggler and still likes to be held and to have her back scratched at night by Kyla.

She’s sweet.

We love her.

  

So much.

Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to my favorite guy...

I love you.

And so do these girls!

The Family Party

The birthday celebrations have begun! Heidi is turning the Big 5 next week. Last night we kicked off the festivities with a backyard family birthday party! This year's interests include Lalaloopsys, American Girl Doll accessories (including the wheelchair and school desk), a skooter, a slip n slide, and some adorable outfits. 

Can't remember why the birthday girl is so sad in this picture. It's the only one where everyone is looking though.

Happy Birthday Heidi Hosers! Can't wait to celebrate some more!!! 

a tripod & a remote

Casey got me a tripod for my birthday. So while Kyla was at school and we were trying to kill time before Heidi's family birthday party (more on that later) we played around with it. Heidi was the remote controller :) 

 And here is my (slightly OCD) birthday girl very stressed out about the balloons "winding away." 

And because I took about 200+ pictures yesterday here are a few randoms of cutie Miss Molly. 

Meet Livi

My good friends, who go way way back- back to Jr. High, Ross and Dorianne just had their second daughter, Livi Kathryn. She's tiny and sweet and just two weeks old today. Great to see my friends, their adorable daughter Camdyn, to meet Livi and to take "a few" pictures as well. Here are my favorites.

 

doesn't she look like she's singing :)

Kyla 6years.6months.20days

Almost done with Kindergarten. Crazy! The time just sped by and I cant’ believe she is almost “moving up” to first grade. All day. Sometimes she just seems so old to me. A kid. Not a baby anymore. A real elementary schooler.
Kindergarten was great to Kyla. She loved it. The highlights…

*The school bus. It was the one thing she was truly sad about leaving behind when we moved. And the one thing she was more than thrilled for when we returned to our neighborhood.

*Her friendships. I feel like I know all the kids names in both classes in the afternoon at GPE. She talks about everyone all the time. Heidi knows everyone’s name as well. She has especially bonded with this little friend, also the oldest of three girls.



*Recess. Her and a couple of her little friends apparently play “Go Getters” everyday at recess. They solve mysteries and go on missions and each have a super power. It’s a pretty big deal. Kyla tells me anyone can join. But she does get a little stressed out if someone decides they no longer want to be in the Go Getters. Here is a picture she drew of them.


*Traveling. Music, P.E. Library, Computer Lab. You name it she loves it. Especially Music and the music teacher.

*Baby Chicks. The class got to have eggs that hatched into chicks and even a web cam to monitor them over the weekend. Kyla says it was her favorite thing in Kindergarten.

*Two Wheels. We were all amazed when she just took off with no training wheels. She hasn’t slowed down since.

*The tooth fairy. She finally came. Kyla’s two bottom teeth had been loose for quite a while. Her adult teeth were growing up behind the baby ones- half way out. Finally they came out. She let dad pull the first one and two days later YaYa pulled out the second one. The tooth fairy came bringing 4 glittery quarter each time. Kyla wrote to the fairy both times and both times she wrote back.

*Reading. She’s making great progress. She gets bored easily by trying to read and sound things out. But she’s defiantly getting better.

Kyla what a sweet sweet girl you are.
