Connor's Mohawk

Justin has been wanting to give Connor a mohawk all summer but I told him we had to wait until after family pictures. We got our family pictures done over a week ago so I couldn't stall any longer. Here is Connor's summer mohawk. It is awfully cute but I am also glad that it is just hair and it will grow back.

P.S. Please ignore the messy face:)

Lily's First Day Home

Lily is home!!!! We went and got her yesterday and she has already been a fun addition to the family. She cried the whole way home in the car and it was so cute! She has really warmed up to Austin or maybe the other way around:) Austin woke up at 7:30 this morning because she was wimpering. That is the earliest he has woke up the whole time he has been here. He really watches out for her and makes sure she has food and water, plays with her and watches over her to make sure Abbi and Connor aren't too hard on her. All of which we have never asked him to do. As you can tell by the picture I think she feels at home with our family.

Rocking Out!!!

It is a good thing that Austin loves his brother! In such cramped quarters as such is our car, they have really learned to make the best of it.

Camping Trip To Adirian With Jeff and Jaymi

The HUGOS

The Two That Started It All

As most of you know Justin past his journeymens test this Spring so for the first time in 5 year Justin is not getting ready to start up school again. I have definately filled the time that he normally used for school/homework with "honey-do's". Justin has already built me a spice rack for my kitchen and helped with a yard sale. Stay tuned for more of Justins great projects.:) He is such a great sport.

This next year for Kara... Probably just the normal hussel and bussel of making sure everyone and everything is taken care of.

Abbi

Abbi is now 17 months and she is full of personality as I'm sure you can tell from all the past posts. She will have some adjusting to do this school year. She will be spending quite a bit of time away from her brother, due to him starting preschool. We will see how much she likes or dislikes this.

Connor

Connor is now three. He will start preschool this year and he is so excited!!! His school is by the library and everytime we go to the library he points out his school and ask me "when will it be time for me to go to school?". I hope that he keeps this enthusiasm for school.

Austin

Austin is now 11, crazy huh! Austin this next fall will be in the 6th grade. Which will start his first year in Middle School. He says he is excited for a new school because he seems to think that the lunch will be better at Middle School than Elementary. I hope he is not disappointed.

Momma Steals a Kiss

I of course LOVE this picture! Abbi really isn't all that affectionate but within the last few weeks she has been alittle more willing to share the "loves". Everyone in the family is liking these little "loves" that she gives!

Abbi's First Time Through the Sprinklers

The Newest Member of the Hugo Family

This is Lilly (at least that is what we think she is going to be named, it is still kind of open to discussion) She is 5 weeks old and is not quite old enough to leave her mommy. We picked her out about 2 weeks ago. The breader said that in most cases the dogs pick their owner. I think this is pretty true with Lilly. She kept coming up to us, especially Justin, and crawling in our laps and licking our hands and feet. Abbi at first was not real into the whole dog thing but today while we were there she really warmed up to Lilly and the other puppies too. Connor is so excited for the "puppy to grow big" so we can bring her home. She will be able to come and be a real part of the Hugo family on the 19 of July.

Abbi's Silly Faces

Abbi has this new thing with Justin. They sit and make faces at eachother. This is just one of the funny faces I could catch with the camera. She has always been such a momma's girl but lately she has been warming up to dear old dad. Which I have to admit I am alittle jealous, I liked being the favorite for once. :) Connor from day one has been a huge daddy's boy so I liked having "my" baby, but as you can see, she is really not much of a baby anymore. She is 17 months, where has the time gone?

4th of July Fun!!!!

Camping Trip To Givens Hot Springs

Connor's Carrots

This Spring the Easter Bunny brought Connor a package of carrot seeds. So Connor planted them. Connor has been a great like gardener and has watered, weeded and watched over his little section of the garden for the last few months and today we decided they looked big enough to eat and they are mighty delicious. This is the first hand full but there are alot more so look forward to more post of Connor Easter Bunny Carrots!
