Cowgirl!


I had to share this picture with everyone. Anyone who knows Ele knows she is not much of a girly girl. She is very much a little Tom Boy who loves horses. Daddy took her to Gunnies the other day and let her pick out her own cowboy hat. She loves it! She wears all the time. She was so tired the other day in the car and fell asleep with her hat on. She is so excited because she is going to the Rodeo, the "Radio" as she calls it, on August 8th up in Summit County. Mommy and Phin are probably going to stay home. We still haven't decided if he and I are going.

OH NO!



Well, Things in the Scott house are a lot different. We are adjusting to having little Phin around. I am learning to live on 4 hours of sleep, and carting two kids around instead of one. BUT, there is one of us in this house who is still her little spunky self. Ele has been AMAZING adjusting to having a baby brother. She has her moments of tantrums, but she all in all she has just been great. Until yesterday afternoon. I took the kids up to my mom's house so Ele could run around the back yard and just be in her world of adventure and do her thing. Well, my mom and I were sitting at the kitchen table watching Ele out in the sand box which is in the very back of my parents yard. Their sandbox surrounds an old apple tree that my parents don't really care about, so they let the kids pick the apples and play with them as long as they throw the apples in the trash so Grandpa doesn't run over them with the lawn mower. Well, there aren't many apples left on the tree because the kids have pulled most of the low ones off already, but Ele needed some food for her horses so she decided to pick the "apples," from the little trees in Grams garden. Well, they weren't apples they were my mom's Roma tomatoes that she was so excited about. Let's just say, my mom won't have to many Roma's this summer! Grandma and Grandpa laughed so hard they could hardly stand it! Ele is a very lucky little girl to have a grandma and grandpa with such a good sense of humor. They thought it was just the funniest thing when she carted them into the house and showed them what she had done and apologized. She is our sweet little adventurer!

Phin


Well, He is here. Phineas Jacob Scott was born on Thursday, July 10, 2008 at 2:13 pm. He Weighed 8 lbs and was 20 in long. BIG BOY! He is our sweet little Angel and we are so happy to finally have him here. He is already sleeping half the night and only cries when he has to get his diaper changed. Ele is a HUGE fan of her baby brother and wants to do everything for him. She is our little helper. Phin loves her already.
