Snow Day!

Since joining Facebook, I have not taken the time to update our family blog. But, we had a snow day today and I'm taking time while the kiddos are napping to update our blog! We had so much fun in the snow today. The kids were outside at 7:45 AM playing in it! We built a family of snow kids all sporting their Texas Tech attire! We also had snowball fights! Poor Ethan never made it outside...he hasn't been feeling well so we kept him indoors! We all had a lazy, fun winter day!

Let the School Year Begin!

This is an exciting time of year because Cody started Kindergarten and Shelby started Mom's Day Out three times a week! Cody was so excited about starting "Big School"; the last two weeks of summer seemed like the longest! He loves going to school and enjoys his teacher and classmates. Shelby started MDO two weeks after Cody; every day we dropped Cody off at school she would ask if she was going to her school now! When she saw all her friends at school from last year she ran right into the classroom and started playing! She loves her new teacher, too. The second day of school she was already spotlighting her independence. She wanted her Cheetos from her lunch box at snack time and her teacher told her to wait until lunch, that they would have a snack soon. Well, teacher went into the bathroom to help another student and when she came out Shelby was under the table...eating her Cheetos! Naturally, would we expect anything else from Shelby?!?! Enjoy these pictures from the kids' first day of school and one of Shelby with her best buddy, John Curtis.

...and Ethan makes Five!

Well, we've officially changed our blog to the "Fentress Family Five"! As of August 11 we've added a new member to our family, Ethan Rodney Fentress. Ethan weighed in at a hefty 7 pounds, 15 ounces and was 20 inches long. He is named after his Papaw whose middle name is also Rodney (Papaw's just a little proud!). Below are pictures of Ethan with Dustin, Roxanne, and Big Brother Cody and Big Sister Shelby. Ethan looks a lot like Cody did when he was a baby, which Cody loves! He hopes they look just alike! Shelby loves her baby brother and showers him with kisses and hugs every day. We are blessed to have three healthy, happy children and thank God every day for our wonderful family!
