Happy Thanksgiving!

These are the only pictures Mommy has on the computer at the moment but she thought she would share!

Mommy does think she is hilarious. Just in case you hadn't noticed.

This pictures was awesome. Mommy was in the midst of taking a picture of Lexa because she looked so cute in her pjs. Just as she snapped the pic, Jace kicked a ball and it hit her on the head. This is the resulting photo.

That be it for now! More later when Mommy is able to get the pictures off her phone! Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving and fills out their stretchy pants!

As of late...

Hawkeye continues to attend Puppy Kindergarten. He graduates (hopefully...) the week after Thanksgiving. He is there primarily to socialize...this is he and Apollo sharing a drink after some hard playing.

Beaner changed her earrings for the first time! Granted she has had them pierced for almost a year but many of you have noticed she is a tad....dramatic. And Mommy didn't want to take any chances on not being able to get new ones in. These went in without a fight nor a tear. Win!

Snuggling with Hawkeye. He is so sweet when he is sleeping. 

And when he is awake.....not as much. If you look closely you will see the milk running down his face. He got the glass off the table and dumped it. Then stood under it to drink it while it soaked him. Needless to say he smelled wonderful. That was bath #1 this week. Bath #2 came after a horrible incident in the car after a few too many treats. Mommy will spare you the rest of the details. Let's just say it was a shitty situation.....pun intended.

A little Sunday afternoon football. 

Lexa and Keith at the benefit for Aunt Darcy last weekend. He was one of the few she let near her!

Jacer and Ali after he bid on (and won) a genuine coin from the tooth fairy donated to the auction by cousin Keenan.

Lexa and her favorite. She asked if Ali could keep her forever. Some days, yes.

And then there is this. How can you be mad at a crazy puppy when he does this?

Oh yes. Now Mommy remembers.

Later gators!

That is one of Jace's favorite quotes right now. 

Holy Moly!

How does it keep happening that Mommy gets so far behind on blogs? She doesn't even realize it and then 2 weeks have passed! Her sincere apologies. Moving on....

This is one sassy lady. With one pumpkin leg warmer. Cause that's how sassy ladies roll.

In Fabulous Aunt Kay's backyard! Jace and Lexa found a bobcat trap with Tate and Tauren!

Paul (Gator Boy Paul) has a new skateboard. Excuse Mommy...Jace has a new skateboard. When you are made to call someone something for so long it starts to stick.

Lexa and Hawkeye fell asleep together on the couch the other night.  He kinda has his arms around her. Awww.

And finally, Jace and Hawkeye. Who really have similar looks on their faces......

That's all....here's to hopes of another post in less than 2 weeks!

Halloween 2013...and then some.

Halloween started on Tuesday for Lexa as she was able to wear her costume to dance class. The hat made it for this picure. Never to be seen again.

Beaner on Halloween afternoon. Isn't she a peach?

Jace as Paul Bedard from the Gator Boys. With his gator, Hawkeye. You will notice Hawkeye wasn't exactly ecstatic with his costume.....

Trick or treating with Lilly at the mall.

Beautiful butterfly and clown!

Jace's year was made when Uncle Chuck and Aunt Denise visited the Gator Ranch in Florida. They sent Jace and Lexa official Gator Boys t-shirts and sweatshirts. Jace was beside himself! This is his 'Paul pose'.

Hawkeye getting a little loving from Davon....he was mildly wound up with his visitors. Hawkeye, not Davon....

Lexa and Amiya showing how they are exactly like their mothers....

And finally...a trip to the mall with Grandma. Mommy turns her back for 2 minutes in Sephora and finds this. An added bonus was when Jace came over smelling like 2 gallons of perfume. They definitely made their mark in Sephora.

That's all for today folks!

Lexa's First School Field Trip

Lexa went on her first school field trip today. And it snowed! In October. Mommy went along for the fun and she can honestly say it was the first trip she has ever made to the pumpkin patch in the snow. A little snow doesn't dampen 3 and 4 year old's spirits easily! Mommy caught a couple pictures for your viewing pleasure. And so she could tack up another post since she has been lacking as of late.

Boarding the hayrack ride. Interesting in snow. Lexa's teacher, Ms. Dean, is behind her.

Beaner on the hay ride. The hay wasn't exactly visible...with all the flakes and such.

It took several parents to get the kids in the bouncy house. One to hold them and another to take off their shoes and toss them in. It was quite an ordeal.

Lexa's best buddy at school, Natalie.

Snack time! Lexa is sitting by Natalie in the lower left corner.

The End!

Pictures!

The kids had a fall mini picture session today. The photographer had kids scheduled every 20 minutes all day! Mommy wanted Hawkeye to be a part of the pictures while he was still small. The photographer also had Mommy join the fun for a couple...which you will notice she was not dressed for. All in all, Mommy thought they turned out pretty good! There should be a few more to come but these are what she has gotten so far!

A Whole Lotta Hawkeye

The majority of this post it dedicated to Hawkeye because.....well there isn't much time for anything else with this wild man! Please note that although there are a lot of sleeping pictures...this is rare. He is typically going at Mach 10 speed. Mommy thinks all of the sleeping pictures are because this is just the only opportunity she has time to think to get out her camera!

Playing with the neighbor dog Duke. Hawkeye has no idea he only weighs 10 lbs.

Sleeping with Bean.

And again.

And even MORE sleeping! He really does love Jace as well!

No words.....the apple doesn't fall far though.

Hawkeye No. Mommy is nearly sure he thinks his name is Hawkeye No. 

And finally....Lexa's brand spankin' new leotard for dance. Ain't she purty?!

Thus concludes this weeks installment of Hawkeye with a splash of Jace and Lexa.
