Brylee was being a stinker and would not go to bed so Deidra asked her if we should put her on top of the book shelf so she can sleep up there like a teddy bear. She thought that it was pretty fun until Deidra started to move away for me to take the picture.

First day of school!! Oh we were just giddy at our house this morning with the prospect of school before us. Liberty couldn't hardly contain herself (although some it was just a little nervous energy i think) I took her to school today and tomorrow she will try the school bus. I thought I was doing pretty well until i tried to sing along with the radio on the way there and my voice started cracking. But, I held it together! I was close to tears, but the hustle and bustle of getting her there and dropped off at the right place didn't allow me time to give in and then it was over and I didn't have to worry. When I picked her up, I asked her if she had fun and all she said was "I thought it was going to be boring, but it was fun- I can't wait for tommorrow!!! " And so she's off and running at full speed. There goes my little girl, growing up on me. It's kind of bitter sweet. I'm so excited that she is progressing and learning, but it definately is a page turned in the book of life, whew. It was kind of different not having her little chatter box going all morning! Anyways, that's it for our first day of school:)

Liberty and Halle finally got to have their sleepover! They had a lot of fun doing everything on Liberty's schedule, the only down side being their fued with the boys (Kayson also had a friend- Ashton- over for the evening.) Lots of giggles all night long, oh the joy of sleepovers!

August 1, 2007. This is our new dog jack. He was dropped off at our neighbors and we decided to give him a home. He seems to be pretty well behaved, but time will tell. We went and got him fixed and he got shots on Tuesday the 7th, so unless he runs off, he is officially a Smith. Poor dog, we had to put a cone on him so he wouldn't tear his stitches out, I think the cone hurt his pride especially when he went outside with it on :) Brylee thinks she is such big britches being able to walk the dog. It's funny to watch, if you ask her about it she just ducks her head and acts like it's no big deal, she does this kind of thing every day. In reality the dog is about as big as her, but luckily he is pretty obedient and doesn't try to escape from her. As Grammy said, we've joined the ranks of pet owners, joy!!!
