Reagan in Tap Lessons

On our way to class.

Reagan is in the back on the right.

Reagan started tap lessons today. She is in a class with 3,4 and 5 year olds. She of course is as big as the 5 year olds! She did SO good and loved it! Can't wait for her first recital!

Hunter's school walk-a-thon 09/2010

Just before the walk-a-thon started. Can you find Hunter?

There he is coming around the bend.

A little smile for Mom.

Heading back to class.

Every year Hunter's school does a walk-a-thon to raise money. Last year in Kindergarten they didn't get to walk at the high school. So this was a new and exciting thing! Fun to watch!

Just a little of Carson Leigh

Sweet happy girl! Look at those blue eyes!

What the heck is this contraption?

Not sure if that is excitement or fear!

Snuggling with sister.

Now that's what I call good tummy time!

Carson is 7 months old today! She is such a joy to us! Always happy and very easy going. Hunter and Reagan just think she is wonderful and are both so patient with her. We could not ask for a sweeter little family! Ryan and I are so blessed once again for Helwig #3!

Ryan and Carson waiting to get autographs!

We decided to head to the Bengals Training Camp this year since they have a total of 4 former Longhorns on their team. We wanted to get some autographs so badly! However, when it came time to get the players to sign, Ryan no longer had a child in hand, therefore was completely looked over by the players. Had Carson not gotten hungry..I'm sure Ryan would have gotten as many autographs as he wanted. Who could say no to that face?
