Frisco Days







Today I took all 3 kiddos to Frisco Days in downtown Rogers. It was such a great day outside WE had a blast. We ran into so many people we know. I love sopending days like this with the kids. There were free rides, Fire simulations for the kids, food, food and more food.
We ran into our neighbors that the girls love to play with. I think theywould live with them if they could. We also met Laine and Leighton there. The girls were so glad to see him

Reid was so happy to get home and get out of his stroller . He crawled everywhere and ate a little dirt as well.

Dance Has Begun



Oh I remember the days when Bella took dance and Abby would scream in the waiting room to get inside with her sissy.

This year I am a front desk person on Tuesdays since I am there anyways it helps both of us out. I am going to be at the dance studio more than last year. The girls are doing competition team this year. So here is our schedule of dance...I know I am crazy there is no need to tell me....


Monday:

3:45-4:40 Bella-ballet

Abby -jazz

4:45-5:40 Bella -jazz

Abby -ballet

Tuesday:

3:45-4:40 Bella-Jazz

4:45-5:40 Abby-Jazz

Every other Friday

3:45-4:40 Bella and Abby Competition Team


But as long as they enjoy doing it than we will. This year the girls actually picked out there classes. So we will see how it goes. Just glad Reid isn't into any activities yet.


Today we went to the doctor because I was having a sore throat and kinda feeling yucky. While we were there I had them look into Reid's ears since he has been trying to rip them off his head the last couple of days and sure enough EAR infection. So I called the ENT doctor and we have an appointment next Thursday. He will most likely be getting tubes and Dr. Black said that if he had to get tubes he would go ahead and while he was asleep remove the lump on the Right side of Reids face which is over the facial nerve. I am not at all worried about the tubes it is the other.


Also on a more positive note. My friend Laine that we had been praying for and he soon Leighton, Well today is his FIRST Birthday. Which is a huge deal. He is an amazing baby and he is a true testament of Gods work.

Oh and look at that FAB shirt...Yeap I made it who would have thought.
Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Updated Blog Design

So I did it and updated my blog design. I love the way it turned out. And my new title...
Sparkles and Dust it's all about the Chesnutt's.
Traci at Sweet Cheeky Designs did the makeover and she did a great job. She is super sweet. It took me forever to pick out something and than decide and she was very patient with me. She is going to help me with my website. She is currently taking a web design class. I can't wait.

Back to School

My two sweetie pies!


I can't believe I have a 2nd grader. And Abby is in her last year of preschool. Time is flying by so fast. We had a great day. I was a little worried Reid and I would get bored at home without the girls there to keep us entertained. I did find myself counting down till I went and got Abby and than count till we got Bella.


Reid crawled up to the stairs several times and just stood there I think he was looking for the girls wondering when in the world they were going to come downstairs and tote him around.


Than we got Abby and he decided he would like her to go back to school.

After school on the first day we have made a tradition of going to Braums and getting some ice cream. The girls got some crazy combinations that mmmm were very interesting.:

Bella got chocolate chip cookie dough and orange sherbert


Abby got peppermint and cherry lime aide.


Reid thinking to himself: What is that those girls are eating? I wonder if he'll get to eat ice cream from Braums his first day? Oh well mom will go buy some Rice milk ice cream. Doesn't that sound good.


Our friend Jake met us here with his mom Staci. It was his first day of Kindergarden.

Did she really just say that?

I know every kid says something that makes you laugh out loud even sometimes when you don't want too. Here are some of the funnies from our lives out of the mouths of our babes:

Saturday morning Bella and David were sitting outside in the front yard. Our neighbors garage was open and they have an LSU license plate.
Bella: Dad I am not sure if I am going to go to LSU or Arkansas for college
Dad: Bella how about you go to Harding where daddy went they have a good nursing program and you can be a nurse like your mommy.
Bella: I don't want to be a nurse
Dad: What do you want to be?
Bella: I want to be a trophy wife dad.....


Dad: Abby school starts soon and you are going to have some friends in your class. Channing will be in your class.
Abby: Oh yeah
Dad: And Fletcher...
Abby: Holla (as she raises her hands up as to raise the roof)

And than there are those times when you look at them and know God is alive and well in those babies hearts.

Today Abby had allergy testing done. (that was so much fun)She tested positive for all trees all grass, cats, dogs, all molds and even a slight reaction to soy.
Tonight when they were praying.
Bella: Dear God please help Abby to get thru her allergies since she is allergic to all trees and grass and animals. Help her so she can play.
Abby: (as she leans her head on Bella's shoulder) That was so sweet sissy. I love you. Than she leaned over and gave her sister a kiss.

Summer

We had a busy day today. I had traded with my sister and I watched her kids today so that Thursday I can go get my haircut and colored by myself with no kids. Ahh 1 hour with just me:) So 6 kids was a little busy but than one of the neighbor kids came over and than I decided:
1. I will not ever have 7 children of my own
2. I will never run a daycare out of my house

It was a great day. I love to sit back and watch the kids play and intract with each other. It makes me smile to see the little looks they give each other or the cute little things they say to each other and even the cute way they say certain little words that make you smile.
Here are some of the pictures I captured while the kids were playing outside today.

David is out of town this week and I have to work in the morning so I was going to let just Bella spend the night at my mom's. We got 1/3 of the way home and Abby had just figured out that Bella wa snot in the car. So we turned around and mymom let her stay as well. She was crying " I want my sissy" over and over again. As soon as we pulled in my mothers driveway the tears stopped for Abby and stared for Reid. But they did not offer to keep him:( Oh well 2 out of 3 isn't that bad.

But it is a Blue Dress

So the other night Bella had Macie Jane and Lily spend the night and they played so well all day on Tuesday. I really wanted to go and take a quick shower so I let the girls watch Reid upstairs in the play room. Well what o you know I went upstairs to get him and this is what he looked like:

After I ran downstairs to grab my camera and get these great pictures. I told the girls he could not wear a dress that they could put him in other clothes...They said but it is a BLUE DRESS. Yea but girls it is a dress, purple sunglasses and a hot pink cell phone. Oh well I am sure this is not the last time...
