Ralphs Ruckus: More Summer Fun!

More Summer Fun!

We had another Monday Fun-day (see post below) and this time we decided to work on the girl's baby books. I am really behind on baby books and the girls kept asking me where their baby books were, so I decided to have them help me make them. We got a lot done, but didn't get quite finished and when it was all over, the girls said, "that's a lot of work mom." It is amazing how you realize how difficult things are sometimes, when you actually try them for yourself.

*Darin and I had been talking about getting the girls some kind of game system or something for our summer car trips, and we found these Android Jelly Bean Tablets at Wal-Mart for $70.00 a piece. Much cheaper than a DS or portable DVD players for the car or I Pods. The girls can play games, listen to music and watch movies, so they serve their purpose well. We haven't figured out all of the bells and whistles yet (like how to download music and movies), but the girls love playing games and it is a great bribery tool. I just take the tablet in the morning and tell the girls they can have it after all of their chores are done that day, works like a charm every time!

Can I just say that this little dude has totally stolen my heart! He is one active little guy and has loved cruising around the house in his walker. It took him one day how to figure out how to run and turn and now he chases me around the house. He is my number #1 fan and I am his!

Abigail is a high energy 10 year old. She is Fifth grade for the 2014-2015 school year and she is very much a people person. She loves swimming, shopping, crafts and cooking, but her most favorite thing is dance. She has also really been working hard on her tumbling over the past year or so. Abigail loves playing the piano and singing as well. Abigail has developed an interest in pageants, we will have to see where that interest takes her in the future. She is a bit of a neat freak, really good at doing household chores, and is VERY Squemish. Abigail is the best big sister and is a great example to her three younger siblings

Emily is 7 now and loves to play with her sisters and other kids. She is in first grade for the 2014-2015 school-year. She is confident, outgoing, and likes to be in charge. She is very sweet and loving and fun to talk to. She can be pretty silly at times and when she starts giggling there is no stopping her. She loves to talk and makes our hearts melt when she looks at us with those big hazel eyes. Emily is a people-pleaser and loves compliments. She has really grown to love dance and cheerleading this past year and it is very apparent that Abigail is her role model. Emily is our resident girly girl; she loves everything pink, glittery, and posh! She loves to help out around the house and thrives on praise. She is a good girl and we love her very much.

Elizabeth is 7 as well. She is full of charisma and is very spunky. Sugar and Spice is what makes up Elizabeth's personality. She is a great snuggler and cuddler, but has a mischievous streak and you can tell when she is up to something by the twinkle in her eye. She is sometimes cautious and unsure about herself, but a very deep thinker. She has an analytic brain and is our resident tom boy. She loves jeans, t-shirts, baseball caps, and monster trucks. Her favorite pass time is spent playing soccer or basketball. She has also started gymnastics this year and she is a natural. She is very strong for her size and extremely coordinated. She loves to give hugs and kisses, but if you cross her, you may regret it. Elizabeth never hesitates to express herself when it comes to people she feels comfortable with. Elizabeth loves to laugh and has a great sense of humor. She is pretty darn funny. She can make almost anything turn into a joke.
