InstaFriday!

OK, well, it's not Friday... but, I thought about this post last Friday... does that count? :) I've never done an "InstaFriday" post before, but it looks like fun, so here goes... Get ready for a LOT of pictures. This is basically a wrap-up of August.  Note: The descriptions are BELOW each row of pictures, and while the pictures are in order, the numbers are just numbers; they don't correspond to dates (though that would have been cool).  Enjoy!


1. Cabbage Patch Cuteness.
2. Cam thought it was too noisy at Cracker Barrel, and may have said, "Be quiet, I'm trying to sleep!" So, David plugged his ears for him.
3. Cam likes to sit "sige-way" at the table.


4. Measuring foam for a crafty project I'll share soon.
5. Cam's antibiotic schedule. He had a double ear infection :( Hopefully not from having David's fingers stuck in there!
6. I love you, tweet tweet Mommy Bird (something Cam started saying recently - so CUTE!).


7. Cameron fell asleep in the car not five minutes after saying, "I'm not tired." We had been at school all morning working on the iPad lab while David and Braden were having fun at a resort with Aunt Melinda and Cousin Corbin.
8. David went down the water slide a lot of times.  Braden was nervous and wouldn't try it (don't blame you, son).
9. Being silly at the dinosaur mini golf.


10. More mini golf silliness.
11. Fore!
12. Happy Half Birthday, Cameron! (posing on a bench in front of Chili's).


13. Braden lost a tooth the night before the first day of 2nd grade! Sadly, it washed down the drain. He wrote a note for the tooth fairy. He was so excited to tell his teacher and show his friends the new hole in his mouth.
14. Our first at-home school day. He breezed through all of his work before lunch! Yay!
15. My helper slowly making his way down the stairs at school. Braden's class is upstairs this year.


16. Volunteering at school. I am loving not teaching!  :)
17. Cameron's first day of his preschool exercise class.  Braden took the same class when he was three.
18. Tickle time with Daddy before bed.  David and Cameron have a routine.  Daddy comes home from work, and asks the question, "Have you been tickled today?" Cam says no, and the tickling commences.  Braden usually wants to join in too.


19. Haircuts with Ms. Pam.
20. Thrifting with Kendra at a local flea market / antique store area.
21. We found these AWESOME school lockers! I wanted to buy them. She told me to sleep on it (wise, my friend). I did. Then I sent David back the next day to pick them up.  :)


22. Ginormous praying mantis on a shop window.  Kendra was so freaked out that I kept trying to get a good (close) picture of it.  The shop owners could see us through the windows and thought we were a little weird. Ha!
23. Braden put Woody's hat on his Webkinz, Buttercup, so he could become his super secret agent alter-ego: Agent B! (think Perry the Platypus).
24. I enjoyed a hot beverage the night before getting four cavities filled.  I was anticipating pain and sensitivity, but my dentist rocks, and I had virtually no pain - before, during, or after!


25. David wants to get back into playing his guitar, and hopefully get good enough to play in the church band from time to time.
26. I bawled reading Ashley Ann's post on the day they finally got to meet their Little One in China.
27. The very next day, my cousin had her sweet little twin baby girls! Edin Reign and Estelle Faith.


28. Braden bonked heads with a friend at recess and has the beginnings of a black eye.
29. Cam got his first milkshake at Chick-fil-A after school.
30. My rainy day lunch. It was actually pretty good - especially with tortilla chips.


31. Flea market shopping with Kendra again! This time she brought her friend, Christy, along, and Christy knows a lady who paints furniture, so we went to her shop.  It was so great!
32. Different shop, but similar idea with the blue/white color combo.
33. Back at the first shop, I really wanted this coffee table made out of old doors and painted boards. David wasn't as smitten as I, though, so it did not come home with me.


34. I wanted to go back to this shop that Kendra and I visited last weekend, but it was closed. Boo. Those are the windows where we saw the big praying mantis!
35. Sweet bakery/deli where we Kendra, Christy, and I ate dinner.  YUM!

OK, that's it, folks!  Maybe I'll do another Instagram post one of these days... maybe not... we'll see.  :)
