RHETT'S 5 YR. PICS . . .

Here are Rhett's 5 year pics ... love his little grin in this 1st one, captured a perfect and typical Rhett Man look!!! Kinda funny, both the boys picked out red shirts for their pics this year and Rhett even wanted to go to the same spot that we took Trey's!!

SOMETHIN' TO BRAG ABOUT . . .

All the kids brought home their 1st quarter progress reports from school and they are definitely somthing to brag about .. we are so proud of all of them!!

Rhett received two awards for succesfully naming all of his upper and lower case letters correctly!!

Charlotte brought home all A's and one B!!
And Trey has 8 S+'s and 1 S along with a wonderful little note from his teacher!!

A TRIP TO THE DENTIST . . .

Rilyn had her very 1st trip to the dentist and did so awesome .. which didn't surprise me too much since she absolutely LOVES brushing her teeth and would do it multiple times a day if I let her!!! She thought picking out a new tooth brush was the coolest thing ever and when it came to picking her flavor for her cleaning she tried to pick 4 different one's .. hahaaa .. but finally settled on grape since it was purple!!! She sat very still and was happy as can be thru her cleaning and then when the doctor came in to check everything out she got a little more serious but still did an awesome job!! It wasn't until they tried to get her to step on the scale and weigh her that we had a melt down ... hahaaaa ... I dont know what her deal is with stepping on the scale but to say she's not down with it would be an under statement!!! (She does this same exact thing every time we go to her regular doctor as well ... I have to get on the scale with her and then put her down, get back on the scale and then we subtract my weight out to figure out how much she weigh's!!) Bear Bear did awesome throughout the whole appt. as well and never left her side .. HaHaaaa!!

You can see for yourself her smile and excitement when she got her goody bag and gold coins for the toy machines!! Everyone there said she was the best patient of the day ... Great Job Rilyn Kate!!!

MORE FUN AT THE LAKE . . .

Last weekend we made another trip out to our new favorite shore spot at the lake and of course had a blast. All the kids rode the tube and both the boys caught catfish!!

Love Bug helpin daddy drive the boat!!

KAINTZ FAMILY CATCH-UP!!

Since it has been a while .. I figured I would just do one big random post of what we have been up to lately ... which for us hasn't been a whole lot compared to our normal craziness .. hahaa!!

Of course, the kids started back to school 4 weeks ago ... Charlotte is now a 4th grader, Trey a 1st grader and Rhett took the plunge into Kindergarten .. crazy stuff!!! Everyone has been having a great year so far and I have to admit that as much work & driving as it is having them all back in school at different times and locations, it is nice to be back on a daily schedule and have all of them out of the house for a portion of the day .. lol!!!

Trey is loving his class and his teacher, Mrs. Tewers, so far and is excelling very well. He has aced every spelling & math test and is reading like a champ!! He thinks he is such big stuff this year being there for a full day and eating lunch in the cafeteria and all that big kid stuff!! I never thought I would say this but he has become quite the little social butterfly as well, making all kinds of new friends!! When I pick him up as we are walking back to the truck you hear "Bye Trey" ... "Bye Trey" ... "Bye Trey" ... hahaaa!!


Rhett got PM Kindergarten with Mrs. McMahon and is also loving it. He is always so excited to show me his folder with all the stuff he did for the day in it and is learning all his letters and letter sounds!! He takes his homework very seriously!! Mrs McMahon just cant believe that we have 2 boys that are so quiet and well behaved!! One of my favorite things when I pick the boys up from school is to listen (cause they dont even realize that I am listening) to them talk to each other about their days and their friends and how one saw the other one in line or wherever ... they always say "I cant wait for next year when we will be on the same playground and stuff dude, that's gonna be cool"!!


Charlotte has been having a great year so far too!! She is loving the fact that she hardly has any homework!!
Beyond school we have pretty much been hanging out at home, with friends, with family or going to the lake!! The kids have been getting some riding in with the weather starting to cool off and my goodness they are rippin it ... makin their momma just a tad bit nervous I must say!! They both are all over us about racing again, if only we could find a good circuit to put them in ... we keep reminding them that dune season is right around the corner too!!

Trey had his buddy from school, Bronson, over to play which was fun .. Bronson had a blast riding the track!! Living where we do it makes it hard for the kids to have their friends over to play so we always enjoy it when we get the chance!

Rhett has been riding Charlotte's 90 instead of his 50 because he says its waayyyyyy faster ... and here he is jumpin it (see what I mean about making their momma nervous)!! I keep reminding him that he's still small and only 5 .. hahaaa .. but he's like ya ya ya mom whatever!!!

Good ol' fashion slip & slide fun!!!

Here's Rilyn "hooting" her new gun that she got for her birthday ... hahaaaa!!! She hits daddy up almost on the daily about how she wants to shoot!!

We now roll with both Bear Bear & Minnie Mouse most places we go!!

A few pic's from our last lake trip ... most of the good one's are on Aunt Lacey's camera!! We had a great day out at Bartlett and decided to boat to our shore spot .. which we found an awesome spot that was all sand shore and hardly any bee's!!! We even got to throw horseshoes ... I almost felt like I was at the river!!!

Soooo there it is a brief little catch up of what we have been up to these days!!
