9/14 at 9:14 AM

You ask what happened on 9/14 at 9:14 AM, well our sweet baby Molly Claire Flynt was born.  She has been such a blessing to us these past few years, and has definitely completed our family.  She has recently become a little firecracker, but honestly who can blame her with everyone in our house.  There are so many things I will remember about our time in the hospital with Molly, but probably the biggest was how bored we were.  I mean really we have a new born baby and we were bored.  Seriously she was so good, and lets face it, we are used to chase 3 kids around at this time.  So, on this wonderful day, we want to wish our sweet Molly a very HAPPY 2nd Birthday!


Still to this day, can't really tell who she looks like...she is a perfect mix of all of us.


I can't believe how young they look here, wait...they were only 20 mths., they are young.  HA!




And how could we make it through life without this great BIG brother to take care of all these girls...Look how happy he is, you wonder at this point if he thought he would have to share a bed with Molly.  There is no hope for him and Chris. 


She is our craziest little one to date, but we wouldn't trade her for the world!!

Sneak Peak...

We had family pictures at the end of July, and of course that is the one day it rained in the entire month!  To say that the pictures went smooth would be a lie.  Our photographer is also a friend (Bartmier Photography), and while she was editing her and her husband got a kick out of our pictures.  She did exactly what she was supposed to, capture a true representation of our family.  I will upload more later, but wanted to give you all a glimpse of how they went...

Love that they are all doing something different, and poor Carter is just ready for the picture.

Carter starts KINDERGARTEN!!!

Carter's 6th Birthday was actually his first day of KINDERGARTEN.  How lucky is he?  Ha!  He walked right into his class and started talking to his friends and coloring.  Mom and Dad did ok the first day too!  He so far is loving it!  I am sure there will be lots of stories to tell throughout the year.


Pardon Molly's hair, but the girls wanted their picture with Bubba on his birthday and first day of school!



Our BIG SUPERHERO!

The weekend before school started we had Carter's birthday party at none other than Nana Flynt's house.  It was a cooler day than we have had, and rained threatened to come like last year, but there were still those that got in the pool.  Amazing to see how much he has grown since his last birthday and for sure since he was born.  We are so blessed to have Carter in our life.  

To say he is obsessed with superheros is an understatement!  He wants to constantly watch a superhero movie or play with the toys.  

Thanks to everyone that came out, he had a blast and got some great new toys and money!!!



Carter has some friends that are girls that have been having some girl parties that he has not been able to attend.  So, he wanted to have a little part of his birthday just be about him and the boys.  So, he had his first big boy sleepover.  They went to the fair to watch the tractor pull and then home to play and watched a movie and ate popcorn.  I think it was a very successful sleepover, and most importantly Carter loved it!!

School has begun...

Well, all the girls started school a couple of weeks ago.  Molly is doing a MDO program and the girls are in PreK-3 program.  They were so excited to go when they got up, and then we actually arrived at school and things changed.  No, really they did good, but Bailey being our more stand off/shy child was very unsure about it.  They wouldn't even let me take their pictures with their teacher.  We will try that another day.  But don't the girls look so big here...

BIG BEAR...

We decided to take the kids to the kids to Bass Pro in Springfield on our way back from Branson last weekend.  They loved all the animals, fish, etc that they saw especially the BIG BEAR!!  It was so funny to see Molly when she realized what it was.  Sorry for the blurry picture, but at least they are all looking!




Molly and her new STAGE....

So, from the beginning Molly has been one of our best sleepers and overall very easy going.  Then starts the terrible twos!!  No, she is not TWO yet, but none the less it has began.  She can throw a fit like the best of them, and in regards to sleeping well she has decided that she wants to climb out of her crib, pack n play, and pretty much whatever you want her to sleep in.  She is a crazy little girl!!!  While we were in Branson this past weekend she decided the pack n play was not for her.  So, when I put her down for a nap, she climbed out and got in the bed to take her nap.  She looks so sweet and innocent there don't you think?  Although, she can be so sweet, I am also experiencing the crazy side of her.  I know it is just a stage, but I sure do like my sweet Molly!!!  

In regards to her sleeping arrangements, right now she has spent 2 nights this week sleeping on the floor because that is where finally gave up.  She is a night owl that is for sure, she would rather play than sleep at this stage.  Gotta love it!
